 Friend Notes are Live on NA

Summoners,

Today we’ve begun rolling out Friend Notes by enabling them on the NA server. 

With Friend Notes, you’ll have the ability to add a note about each player on your friends list. When in the game client, clicking the “note” icon on a friend’s name plate will bring up a text box where you can keep track of things like who your friends are, what roles they excel at, or why you enjoy playing with them.

We’ll be monitoring this feature today, and turning it on in other territories once we’re confident in its stability. Players who were logged on when the feature was enabled may have to reconnect for the client to update. 

If you get a chance to try out Friend Notes, let us know what you think. Devs are standing by for your feedback!

New League of Legends Swag from J!NX

Snowdown is nearly here, and our friends over at J!NX are ready to roll out the latest goods in preparation for the holiday season. This includes a whole new line of League of Legends merch that’s been endorsed by both International Steam Golem Society and the Association for Armordillo Preservation. Whether you’re looking for a high-octane Blitzcrank hoodie to ward off the winter chill, a talking Rammus plushie* to keep you warm at night, or anything in between, we think you’ll find what you’re after. 

Here’s a look at some of the new swag:





Head over to the J!NX store to get your holiday shopping started. If you miss out on the new LoL items, Veigar will leave you a lump of Dark Matter in your stocking this year.

* We personally guarantee that all Rammus plushies know exactly what to say to make you feel okay. **

** We assume no legal responsibility in the event that a Rammus plushie should fail to make you feel okay in certain emotional situations. Unexpected Armordillo encounters may actually result in feelings of high stress or anxiety, especially in or around wooded areas. Please consult the manufacturer in the event that your Rammus plushie begins to exhibit poor behavior or taunt other toys in your household.

 Champion & Skin Sale: Searing Seeds

• They told me I couldn’t get a garden to grow by Snowdown, that the winter frost would chill the roots and freeze the seeds. But, as you can see, all you need is a little… heat. You don’t recognize me? I’m Wildfire Zyra, and this is my patch of red and green in all this frigid white. 487 RP
• Firefang Warwick saw my blazing bivouac and stopped to admire my work. You can tell by how he struggles against the vines that he didn’t expect I’d use his flames to fuel their rampant growth. 487 RP
• On the other thorn, Volcanic Wukong tried to keep his distance. His monkey business might have misled someone who relies on their eyes, but my plants and I have sharper senses. Now he, too, melts the snow to water the seeds of my labor. 487 RP

• Some trespassers are less useful than others. Gangplank plucked one too many of my fruits. I’ve caught him up with a root snare, but I can’t imagine a way to use his scurvy-ridden form. There’s barely enough heat to keep him breathing. 487 RP
• Heimerdinger was one of those prattling fools who told me I would never finish my garden. When I told him about all of the interruptions, he agreed to build some turrets to support my Thorn Spitters. 487 RP
• She doesn’t think I’ve noticed her, but you can see LeBlanc behind those snowy dunes. My guess is she seeks only the warmth of my fire, but I’m saving my Stranglethorns to stop her if she’s got wicked designs on my thicket. 487 RP
• Blight and ashes! I’m caught in a Twisted Advance. Maokai, why are you here? There’s nothing unnatural about this project. Well, one good burn deserves another. Forget the deceiver – have a taste of my own Grasping Roots, you twisted treant! 395 RP

I’ll prove them all wrong yet, summoner. These intruders and interlopers won’t poison my plants – I can keep them growing from December 11 to December 14 and then we’ll see where next I harvest my deadly bloom.
