After a tumultuous start to the year that resulted in the LoL 13.2 patch getting scrapped, League of Legends is finally back to its regularly scheduled updates—it all starts with patch 13.4.

This patch mainly focuses on Riot securing the Season 13 meta as they're looking to balance range versus melee supports in the bottom lane, ensure more optimal jungle paths, look at early snowballing, and much more. Of course, there are tons of balancing and tuning for players to expect and new skins.

Knowing this, here's what's in store for LoL 13.4 as we count down to its release time.
