Legends of Runeterra update 1.5 - Patch Notes

Legends of Runeterra's next update - version 1.5 - will be released very soon. Riot Games' latest deckbuilding title patch will introduce new game mode labs, a season of Fortune continuation, along with bug fixes and other expected changes.

If you're looking for information on what's new in Update 1.5, we've got you covered.

What is Legends of Runeterra Labs mode?

Labs will be an experimental version of Legends of Runeterra's Game Types. They are all about variety and introduce a bit of chaos into procedures, but are less competitive than Gauntlets, the latest new game mode added.

Instead of building a traditional deck, players choose from a random assortment of champions at the start of a match. These champion cards will start in your hand and randomly generate a deck for you to fight against your friend or opponent online.

Update 1.5 will see the first Lab, titled ARAM, fixed, and each patch following Update 1.5 will see a new or slightly modified Lab made available.
