Level ups

Monsters

• Visual leashing indicators are now displayed to show how far jungle camps can be pulled before their patience starts diminishing.
• Distance for jungle monsters to be pulled from their camps has been decreased.

Jungle paths

• Jungle path recommendations for the first clear now offered for every champion. First clear paths were determined by gathering data from high skilled junglers on their high mastery champs across the globe. Pathing recommendations are based on which routes most often led these players to a victory and will be updated each patch.
  • These recommendations are displayed on the mini-map and visually above camps, indicating the recommended order of your first clear.

Objective voting

• A ping not visible on the screen is now notified based on which direction it came from by displaying it on the edge of the screen. Enemy Missing pings will show on your screen regardless of where they are pinged on the map while Retreat, On My Way, Assist Me, Hold, All-In, and Push pings will only be displayed if they are pinged within 3000 units (approximately corner to corner of your screen when fully zoomed out) of your screen’s edge.
