Patch 14.11 for League of Legends brings changes to the ADC class, nerfs to Infinity Edge and Caitlyn, along with buffs to Draven and Immortal Shieldbow.

The next League of Legends patch is on its way as MSI wraps up. With the dust settling from the massive 14.10 update from Riot, which shook up ADC items and more, the developers are fine-tuning the game.

This time around, they're taking another look at those ADC items, toning down Infinity Edge to rein in Caitlyn's one-shot headshots.

When is League of Legends Patch 14.11 going live?

League of Legends Patch 14.11 is set to launch on May 29, 2024. It'll hit Oceanic servers first, then roll out gradually across other servers throughout the day.

Here are the patch drop times for your server:

  • 3 AM PT (NA)
  • 5 AM GMT (EUW)
  • 3 AM CET (EUNE)
  • 8 AM KST (Korea)

You should expect a few hours of downtime during the update process, with matchmaking queues going offline about three hours before.

After the massive overhaul in Patch 14.10, where ADC items got a major revamp, Riot's dialing back some of the power. They're targeting Infinity Edge and certain crit-based ADCs to restore balance.
