The year is winding down—and so is the 2022 League of Legends preseason. But before we count down the days and get ready to celebrate the new year, Riot Games has a few more updates to share.

The devs are shipping a series of champion, item, rune, and dragon changes to keep the preseason up and running this week. Ultimate Spellbook and ARAM are also receiving some much-needed updates.

Here’s the full rundown on League’s Patch 11.24, which is due to hit the live servers on Wednesday, Dec. 8.
