2020 has been one hell of a year for League of Legends! Season 10 has reinvented the game and introduced tons of new stuff that changed how we play LoL. The biggest shift, however, was the debut of the elemental dragons during the preseason. Ever since they arrived on Summoner’s Rift, the game has been focused solely around them. And even though the meta has rapidly evolved throughout the year, the mission has stayed the same – pick champions to secure the Dragon Soul!
With that in mind, Riot Games have introduced many new characters that are good at controlling the map. Champions like Sett and Lilia became the face of season 10 just because they are so damn good at dominating the entire Rift. Yone and Samira brought us some new playstyles in League, while the reworks of Volibear and Fiddlesticks made the game ten times more interesting. All in all, season 2020 has been a blast of a year for most League of Legends players.
But, season 11 and 2021 are right on the horizon, so everything is about to change. Once again, Riot Games are reimagining the game, and this time it’s through Mythic and Legendary Items. Overall, big changes are coming our way, and the preseason patch will soon be here for us to test it. And that’s also the time when season 10 is scheduled to end.
Let’s compare it to the past seasons and see how closely Riot Games follow their format.

So, the League of Legends ranked season 10 ends on November 10, 2020, at 07:59 GMT. The exact date and time have been revealed in a recent blog post by the developers, and everything is as expected. Riot Games work in a clear scheme where the current season ends right after the World Championship tournament every year. The preseason patch immediately follows, and after two months of tinkering with the changes, the new ranked season hits the live servers.
