Encountering a cheater in-game is an absolutely frustrating experience 😡. While watching them get banned is satisfying, losing LP unfairly still leaves a bad taste. Fortunately, starting from patch 25.06, if Vanguard detects that you lost a Ranked game due to a cheater, your LP will be refunded once the offender is punished ✅. This is definitely a great change that makes the game feel much fairer! 🎯

When an LP refund happens, you'll get a notification right away (or on your next login) 📩. It’ll show the match details, the LP restored, and your updated rank in bold Beaufort lettering. Riot won’t remove LP from those who unknowingly won with a cheater, only refund those who lost unfairly. However, if someone intentionally queues with cheaters—aka "hitchhiking" or "bussing"—they’ll be banned alongside them 🚫. Fair play matters! 🎯

This patch also brings our second favorite notification: reporter feedback! 📨 Since the Vanguard team relies on in-game reports to track down suspicious players, they want to keep the system accurate and transparent. Now, you’ll know when your hackusations hit the mark ✅. And let’s be honest, there’s something satisfying about seeing the exact moment a cheater’s account gets blasted into the heliosphere 🚀🔥.

This patch introduces our first seasonal mini-game: The Demon’s Hand, a strategic turn-based card-battler! 🎴 You can play it now in the client, following Atakhan’s story as it unfolds—and, of course, snag some cool rewards along the way.

For the bravest challengers, there’s Demon Mode, the hardest difficulty. Conquer it, and you’ll earn a special title to flex your skills 💀🏆.

Think you’ve got what it takes? Good luck! 🍀🔥 Learn more here.

As mentioned in the last Dev Update, Honorable players will now have a chance to earn up to 2 extra Hextech Chests this Act! 📦🎉

These Honor Chests will be delivered through missions, and the higher your Honor level, the faster you’ll earn them. So don’t forget to check your Objectives Panel and keep spreading positivity! 💙👏

This patch introduces our new Champion Mastery icons! 🏅 Based on player feedback, we’ve updated them to better match the classic versions, while still keeping a fresh new look.

We’re still making some final tweaks to the color, texture, and audio based on PBE feedback, so expect more refinements next patch. But for now, enjoy flexing your hard-earned mastery in style! 💪🔥

Your Shop is returning this patch! 🔥 It’ll be available for two patches, so don’t forget to check out your personalized skin discounts before it disappears on April 16! 🏃💨💰
