League of Legends: Here is a list of features in the upcoming patch 11.23 that are being tested in the PBE. 2021 is nearing its end and we are soon going to receive the last patch of season 11 of League of Legends. The upcoming patch of 11.23 is currently being tested in the PBE environment and there are a lot of new things that have been added to the game. Plus there are also many features that have been influenced by Riot’s Arcane release. Here is a list of all the things present in Season 12’s preseason update.

Release of the League of Legends patch 11.23:

Riot will release the League of Legends patch 11.23 on 17th November. The timings will also differ across the various servers. The key timings for the update are:

Before the League 11.23 patch hits the servers, the game will shut down the matchmaking and queuing for competitive games across all of its servers.

Expectations with the League of Legends patch 11.23:

The preseason update rollout has always brought in many meta-shifting changes that force players to learn new things and adapt to become better at their game. Here are all the changes that have been introduced with this 11.23 preseason 12 patch.

Caitlyn gets a huge overhaul

With the release of Arcane, many fans were eager to see Caitlyn get an overhaul, especially regarding her character model, in-game graphics and animations. Riot had already released the new champion theme regarding Caitlyn previously on 30th October.

New skin releases: Arcane and Cafe Cuties

As we see the release of the next installment of the Arcane series, the appearance of the two characters Jinx and Caitlyn in the show will coincide with the two new skins being released here. We have earlier received the Arcane skins of VI and Jayce in the previous patch.

Here is a list of the skins being released.

1. Arcane: Jinx and Caitlyn.

You can obtain both of these skins by completing in-game missions that will start on 22nd and 24th November for Caitlyn and Jinx respectively until 9th December. Then both of these skins will be available in the store for 975 RP.

1. Cafe Cuties: Annie, Bard, Gwen, Sivir, Soraka and Vladimir.
   All these Cafe Cuties skins will be available for 1350 RP in the store.

  • Terrain- Gas zones emerge in four jungle locations when the terrain transforms for the Chemtech Drake, giving any champion camouflage within the zone. Camouflaged enemies are not revealed by regular vision wards, but are revealed by Control Wards, Scryer’s Blooms, and other things that reveal invisible units.

Hex-gates are activated with a brief channel (that can be interrupted by stuns or damage) before rapidly transporting you across the map to the corresponding Hex-gate.

Objective Bounties Update

The objective during League of Legends games can be viewed only when your team is lagging behind the other team. Both teams will be able to view them in the mini-map when they are present in the vicinity. If the lagging team gets an active bounty, everyone receives the bounty gold. These bounties are calculated on the following four factors.

1. Baron Nashor and Elder Dragon – 500 gold.
2. Dragons and Rift Heralds – 500 gold.
3. Outer Turrets – 250 gold.
4. Inner and Base Turrets – 400 gold.

When a team falls behind significantly in gold, the value of these objectives can rise to up to 60% more than the listed one.
