Here are the League Patch 13.21 patch notes

The huge excitement of the many preseason changes last cycle may have simmered down a little, but League of Legends Patch 13.21 still has plenty to offer when it comes to champion changes.

When will League Patch 13.21 go live?

This update is scheduled to go live globally on Wednesday, Oct. 25. The last update in October will start staging in Australia⁠—which suits me quite nicely⁠—around 10am AEST before rolling out on major League servers through the day.

Here are all the key patching times:

3pm CT (NA)
5am GMT (EU West)
3am CET (EU North East)
8am KR (Korea)

Here’s a countdown to the NA League release.

Expect several hours of server downtime once the patch begins staging. Matchmaking will be disabled across all League queues three hours before the update is officially set live.

What’s in League Patch 13.21?

Brand, Zyra lead jungle spellcasting revolution

The League developers have heralded their intent to push more ability-powered characters into the jungle champion pool and will be kick-starting the drive this update with sweeping changes (and buffs) for Brand and Zyra. These include damage and attack speed boosts for Brand and a heaping of damage and ability power spikes for Zyra across her Q and E plant abilities.

Outside these two more dramatic role pivots, the devs are also staying strong on keeping Morgana jungle with more buffs.

Lattes and potions for next skin releases

This League update may be a little skinnier than last time out when it comes to new cosmetics, but don’t worry: Riot is still dishing up some interesting variants, with more Cafe Cuties skins arriving this week.

Lulu, Jinx, Poppy, and Rumble are the lucky champions getting new versions of the fan-favorite skinline, while Syndra gets a Coven skin this patch.

Here are all the skins coming in this patch:

Cafe Cuties Jinx (1,350 RP)
Cafe Cuties Lulu (1,350 RP)
Cafe Cuties Poppy (1,350 RP)
Cafe Cuties Rumble (1,350 RP)
Coven Syndra (1,350 RP)

These skins will go live during the Patch 13.21 cycle.
