The largest German Twitch streamer for LoL explains why a change to the map could soon change the entire game

German Twitch streamer Frederik “NoWay” Hinteregger shares his excitement about the recently announced changes to the Summoner’s Rift map in League of Legends in his stream. He happily reports how happy he is about the announced Season 14 and that it will bring significant changes to the gameplay.

What change is this? The upcoming changes, which will be introduced with Season 14 in January 2024, primarily promise major changes to the Summoner’s Rift map, which are already playable on the test server. Here is a short summary for you:

Changes in Season 14

  • The red and blue terrain will be aligned and should ensure that you can move more equally across the map and that it is not easier to escape or gank depending on which side of the lane you are on
  • Monsters on the map are getting a void-style makeover, some including new features
  • The mid lane will be wider overall than before, which is one of the few changes to the mid lane
  • The bush in the river on the bot lane is placed more centrally
  • A new path in red terrain will be added to the river area
  • There will be three different Barons, each with their own abilities and pits
  • The “Hunting Baron” is the classic, already well-known Baron
  • The “Territorial Baron” places a wall directly across from him, creating two separate entrances; the abilities are not yet known
  • The “All-Seeing Baron” creates a long tunnel in which he stays in the middle; the abilities are not yet known
  • One of the three Barons will spawn in minute 20
  • previously, Voidgrubs spawn in the Baron’s Pit and can be killed for buffs
  • From minute 5 onwards 3 Voidgrubs will spawn and as soon as one is killed the timer is reset
  • A total of 6 of them can spawn in a game and disappear in minute 14 to make room for the Rift Herald
  • Players can no longer just fight for control of the Herald, but also wield its power themselves by being able to ride and control it
  • Blue and Red Buff Monsters become stronger starting at minute 20
  • Mythic items will be removed
  • Steam: New League of Legends game lets you manipulate time with Ekko – fans are happy: “I’ll cry.”
