First win of the day bonus messed up

This isn't a big issue because it's free rewards, but the First Win of the Day Bonus (which is available again 22 hours after you get it) seems to be offset quite a lot.

Currently, my client tells me it is available in 7 hours 32 minutes (approximately 11:30 PM CST 09/16/2015). However, I was awarded my last First Win of the Day @ 09/15/2015 at 7:22 PM CST. This should mean it is available 09/16/2015 at 5:22 PM CST and not 11:30 PM which is 28 hours after I was awarded it (hardly a per day time period). This coincided with the patch 5.18 release.

Will my bonus be available normally despite the client or am I stuck with logging on at 11:30 PM well after I'm in bed? I attempt to schedule my bonus to be gotten after work and not after I am asleep.

I have the same problem. I have worked so hard to keep my win of the day early in the day. Now my whole scheduled is screwed up. If it stays like this it will mess up the rest of my week and weekend plans.

I wish that the first win of the "Day" bonus was more like Blizzard's Daily Quest reset . They pick a time and all Daily related events reset at that time. In WoW's case it was 2AM CST (this is region based I believe), that way we wouldn't have to worry about what one day's reward affecting the rest of your week or weekend.

I think my biggest issue is they changed data with the patch relating to your account. Hopefully nothing else gets reset on you or goes missing.

I noticed the same thing, googled "5.18 first win of the day" and got here. At first I wondered if Riot deliberately changed the timer as a result of the patch. As others said it's not the end of the world just a little annoyance.

Same issue here; last win of the day at 10:17 PM last night and it won't be up until 2:30 AM tomorrow.

Same problem as everyone else. Got my fwotd last night sometime before 11:00 PM EST, but now it shows as being ready again at about 3:30 AM. Match history confirms that my last game was yesterday and not today. Not a huge deal, but annoying.

Yeah mine says that it will be available around 4 am... but I always get it done after work around 6 pm.
