Today marks 2 years, since the League wiki has left from fandom. And in that time we've now branched out support for ALL Riot games.
This couldn't have been made by possible without the support of the all people who edit the wiki, from the people who tirelessly edit every day to lurking randos who correct typos. This has always been and will always be a community endeavor.
I also want to shout out the incredible community teams across the various Riot teams who believe in our vision and have supported over the years. This goes out to the incredible Editors-In-Chief @draggles @BKCearns @TrickJarrett @More_Synergy and Brian Chui (Valorant). As well as the stellar comms team @FerikaBoss @ggmattb @teasao @JulezJP @wroadie @RiotRiru @riot_prism @katieguo @CadenHouse and @StevenDEarnest.

Absolutely serving 🍝
Spaghetti alla Vel’Koz, Pasta Maker Illaoi, Breadsticks Irelia and Pizza Chef Sion are available on Patch 26.11.
ALT Spaghetti alla Vel’Koz’s noodly arms pull a fork out and threaten the unseen person trying to add garnish to his already perfect form. His face is a giant meatball with a singular eye and sharp teeth.
ALT Breadsticks Irelia prepares to sprinkle fresh parmesan cheese on some fresh loaves of garlic bread. Pizza Chef Sion pulls a large pizza out of the oven in his stomach that is dwarfed by his large oven mitts. Pasta Maker Illaoi holds a large pot filled with sauce and simmering vegetables with a fork tied into her hairband.

ITS FINALLY HAPPENING!
I’ve been working on Partner Programs on and off since the OG launched in 2018, and being able to have open applications has been my white whale. I’m so happy we can finally hit this step!
There has been a ton of back end work and support to get us to this point, and there is still a ton more to go. But hopefully this finally puts our money where our mouth is and shows we are committed to expanding our programs to new faces!
See you in a few months!

Hey folks. As a result of the volatility since January, we’re doing a Ranked reset for Apex players (Master+) in NA, EUW, EUNE, BR, LAN, and TR. Affected players will have their visible rank and MMR reset to Master 0LP when Patch 26.9 goes live.

Patch 26.8 Preview
We have a small patch as we aren't looking to change a bunch of things with 26.9 (Season 2) coming out soon.
26.9 has quite a few systems changes in it and so we expect those to have rippling effects on what champions are strong and weak.
There are also a few champions that have been having larger scope changes to them that we're looking to release on 26.9 as well, but weren't quite ready for prime time on 26.8
Fantasy Facing Changes
- A lot of the direction of our changes in the near future are aimed at emphasizing the unique strengths/strategic differentiators of champions, even if it will cost some aspect of the champion being flat in winrate across skill levels
- In many ways, a champion that has lost resonance with a core portion of their user base, even if they can sit at a higher power level may represent a downgrade in experience for players of that champion
- Expect the buffs this patch to translate more of the power budget into the area of the champions that are unique to them and we want to be moving the power of the roster like this over time
Yuumi Bugs
- We recently discovered a Yuumi bug where her ultimate was healing her attached ally each time it heals another ally
- While the number of times you're hitting multiple people with ult are rare, it is a significant nerf to the healing in the best case
- We're fixing this bug and compensating the ultimate (and other sources of healing)
Mel
- Mel's buffs in 26.5 ended up being a bit over magnitude, so we're pulling some of that back
- While we think after these changes Mel will be in a balanced state, that is different to whether she is in a state that is sometimes too frustrating for players
- We're continuing to evaluate whether making further changes to her is going to be able to adequately resolve "play against" while also remaining resonant and accessible for her Arcane audience
- We've been testing a few things, but nothing to share just yet
Dr Mundo
- Mundo consistently rates at the top of our frustration surveys and he's been overperforming especially in average play jungle
- We're tapping down some of that late game damage so that when he's popping off, he can still go where he pleases, but he's going to solo killing champions a bit less while doing so
More on the other champs later when the changes are more locked in
