Party Chat And New Chat Functions

In patch 13.4, Riot is adding a new Party Chat channel to the chat box. This third channel, alongside Team Chat and All Chat, will allow you to send messages that only your party members can see. This will allow you to quickly and easily communicate with friends without involving the entire team.

The new chat functions coming includ /muteself and /deafen. The /muteself will prevent you from using sending messages over in-game chat, and other players will be able to see that you have muted yourself. Similarly, /deafen will prevent you from sending or receiving chat messages, essentially taking you out of in-game chat altogether. Again, other players will see that you have chosen to /deafen yourself.

Ranked Changes

All LP gains and losses will be increased, meaning wins will grant more and losses will take more points away. Also, duo players will be matched with higher-skilled players to combat the advantage of players teaming up over solo players. This will be done by slightly increasing the skill rating of duo groups.

Refund Tokens

The refund token system allows players to refund purchased skins within 90 days regardless of if they have been used or not. Previously, Riot announced plans to depreciate those refund tokens and remove this system as it was.

However, recent changes have led to the system staying in place, so fans can continue to use their tokens, including the three tokens granted at the beginning of this season. The next token refresh will happen at the beginning of Season 14 next year.
