No official date for LoR Worlds was announced, but Riot did reveal that the Legends of Runeterra World Championship will “take the place of the Seasonal tournament of the season running from Oct. 12 to Dec. 6.”

Paths to LoR Worlds will now include the A Curious Journey season, along with three seasons that will take place between May and October.
