Frustrated with having to handle toxicity, especially when it comes from a player in your party? Riot's got you covered. In the upcoming update, if someone has received a team text mute from the game, you will be able to mute their party messages too.

Exciting store updates are on the horizon for the game as well. Now, you can favourite newly-purchased or unlocked weapons and skins right from the confirmation screen. This new feature applies to cosmetics from battle passes or event passes at the end of the game too.
