League of Legends has a lot of exciting changes coming in 2025. Patch 14.24 ushers in the Noxus map, Viktor’s rework, a massive boots overhaul based around Feats of Strength, Atakhan, a teleport rework, and a whole lot more.
It’s not just big stuff, though, we’ve also got a whole slew of champion balance changes, item adjustments, new runes, and a whole bunch of other changes. Bear in mind that these notes are based on the PBE build and are subject to change.
Here’s every change coming in League of Legends patch 14.24 so far.
LoL patch 14.24 early notes
Map Changes
The Season of Noxus has arrived! With it comes a new look for Summoner’s Rift, but also a significant update to the way everything on the map functions.
Atakhan, Bringer of Ruin
Atakhan, Bringer of Ruin spawns at 20 minutes on the side of the map that has seen the most kills/deaths by 14 minutes. If there are no kills, it’ll be based on the side that took the most damage.
When he spawns, along with him will come an arena that adds map terrain. He also drops Blood Roses on the map that grant a permanent power buff and some XP for your entire team. There are also two variants of Atakhan, both of which have different movesets and buffs they grant upon being killed.
Ruinous Atakhan spawns in high-kill games where both teams are duking it out. Killing him grants bonus Bloody Petals to the team who gets the final hit on him and spawns more Roses in the area to collect additional Petals.
Voracious Atakhan spawns in slower games with less kills and is a much bigger threat in the short-term. The buffs he grants reads as follows:
- False Life: For the next 180 seconds, the first time you would die, you instead go into Stasis for 5.5 seconds and teleport to your team’s spawn. Your would-be killer instead earns 1 Bloody Petal and 100 Gold
- Your team now permanently gain 40 bonus gold on champion takedown
- Keep in mind this is takedown and not kill. If your entire team participates in a kill, that’s 200 bonus gold across your team.
- Your team now permanently gain 40 bonus gold on champion takedown
Atakhan only spawns once per game, but more Blood Roses will spawn on the map over time, with them commonly spawning on the corpses of champions who die on the map.
Objective Timers
Spawn timers are shifting around a little with this update. Rift Herald will spawn at 16 minutes, Atakhan at 20, and Baron at 25 to give each objective some time to breathe on the map.
Turrets
- Turret fortification decreased: 85% >>> 50%
- This is the damage reduction that turrets get from having plates up
- Nexus turrets now respawn a short time after they go down, preventing backdoors and allowing more late-game comebacks
Feats of Strength & Boot Upgrades
Feats of Strength is a set of 3 objectives: First blood, first tower, and first to kill 3 epic monsters. Getting 2 of these 3 feats will grant you some pretty substantial boot upgrades for purchase, with the stipulation that you have to already own 2 legendary items to pick up a pair.
