#UPDATE 11/18:

  • All Rewards for all regions should now be completely distributed! If you are convinced you have met all of the criteria, but still did not receive rewards make sure to submit a ticket to us in Player Support so we can investigate further!
  • There is a known bug in normal queues where your highest division marker will not be displayed. This will be fixed in the next patch!

#UPDATE 11/16:

  • The overwhelming majority of players should have all received their rewards for all regions (Borders, icons, skins, etc).
    We are still working on identifying edge cases, or finding players we may have missed. However, all rewards should be distributed by November 18th, 23:59 PST.

#UPDATE: 11/11:

  • With the latest patch, we have updated the Border Art in the Loading Screen. This is new art for EVERYONE, and is NOT the 2015 Ranked Reward Border. Those will be distributed by November 18th, 23:59 PST.

#UPDATE 11/5: The rules for being kicked from a Ranked Team and then re-joining has changed. This is the updated section:

  • If you were kicked from (or left) a team for whatever reason, and then rejoin, your past wins WILL remain. You do NOT need to start over in terms of number of wins
    • For example, if you won 8 games, and then were kicked from (or left) the team (then re-invited), you would only need to win 2 more games, because your prior 8 wins are remembered.
    • If you are never re-invited to the team, you will not earn rewards. You NEED to be on that team on November 11th, 00:01 PST in order to earn rewards
    • If you join a new different team, you will still need to earn 10 wins on that team

Hey everyone,

Ranked Rewards are the culmination of everyone’s hard work throughout the season (or grinding those 10 ranked games at the last minute XD). We want to make sure everyone knows the exact requirements in order to unlock those rewards:


#Ranked Season

  • Ranked Queues will be disabled on November 11th, 00:01 in each region. For NA, this is PST -- Click here for EUW, EUNE, and OCE.)
  • You can queue at any time before this, and the game will still count. You can even queue at exactly 00:00 PST on November 11th, and the ranked game will still count.
  • The Ranked Season will officially end once the final ranked game is completed in that region
  • Challenger/Master tiers will update one final time after the final games are completed (after the Ranked queue is disabled) which determine the end of season standings
  • If you decay at exactly 00:00 PST on November 11th, you will get rewards based on where you land after the decay. Decay is disabled on November 11th, 00:01 PST -- the same time Ranked Queues are disabled
  • You can find a full list of rewards for each Tier in this Article
  • Rewards are displayed for specific queues. A full explanation can be found here

#Ranked Solo-queue

  • Can be completed solo or with a duo-queue partner
  • To earn rewards, you must have played ALL 10 games (ie, your placement games)
  • Unlike Ranked Teams, you do not need to win 10 games
  • Rewards are awarded depending on your ending rank at November 11th, 00:01 PST, NOT your highest achieved
  • You must be Silver Tier and above to receive a Loading Screen border
  • You must be Gold Tier and above to receive the Victorious Sivir Skin (If you don't own Sivir, she will be added to your account.)
  • NOTE: If you purchased Sivir right before receiving Victorious Rewards, she will not be refunded.

#Ranked Teams

  • A ranked team must have completed 5 ranked games by November 11th, 00:01 PST
  • You must have WON 10 games in a single ranked team to qualify for team rewards
  • You must have 10 wins on the same team, not on multiple teams
  • If you won 10 ranked games on a team, and then are kicked from that team, you will not earn rewards. Player Support cannot override or change this.
    • If you are never re-invited to the team, you will not earn rewards. You NEED to be on that team on November 11th, 00:01 PST in order to earn rewards
  • If you were kicked from (or left) a team for whatever reason, and then rejoin, your past wins WILL remain. You do NOT need to start over in terms of number of wins
    • For example, if you won 8 games, and then were kicked from (or left) the team (then re-invited), you would only need to win 2 more games, because your prior 8 wins are remembered.
    • If you join a new different team, you will still need to earn 10 wins on that team
  • If your team goes into an in-active state before November 11th, 00:01 PST, your team will not earn rewards
  • The Ranked Team Ward Skin is unlocked for each individual (not team) based on how many points you individually earned during the Ranked Season:
  • You must WIN Ranked Team games to earn points -- Points are individually earned, not tied to specific teams
    • Victory in Ranked Team 3v3 - 1 point
    • Victory in Ranked Team 5v5 - 3 points
    • Points are earned from ALL Ranked Teams combined. Points do not have to be earned within a single Ranked Team. Even if you leave the team, are kicked, or if the team disbands, your points remain.
  • Ward Skin tiers are unlocked at 20, 45 and 75 points respectively
    • You must earn 20 points to earn the base Ward Skin

#Things that will get your ass disqualified from Ranked Rewards

  • Being banned or having active chat/ranked restrictions at November 11th, 00:01 PST
  • If you had any 7 day or more bans, they must have expired/ended at or before August 9th, 23:59 PST
  • For example, if you received a 7 day ban on August 2nd and it ended on or sometime before August 9th, 23:59 PDT, you are eligible for rewards
  • On the other hand, if you received a 7 day ban on August 3rd and it ended on or after August 10th, 00:00 PST, you are ineligible for rewards
  • Players banned for boosting during the 2015 season remain ineligible for rewards
  • Both those who boosted and those who did the boosting are ineligible
  • Players who received fraud-related (including Chargeback bans) and accidental/false bans will still be eligible
  • Players who had LeaverBuster suspensions are still eligible
  • Being ineligible for 2015 Ranked Rewards does not automatically disqualify you from getting other rewards in future seasons

#Reward Distribution

  • All rewards (Borders, banners, icons, Skin Wards, Victorious Sivir/Champion) should be distributed by November 18th, 23:59 PST
  • Rewards are distributed in waves. If you see others with rewards, but you haven't been rewarded yet, don't panic! You will get your rewards in subsequent waves
  • If you want your reward border to be removed from your account for whatever reason, contact Player Support and we will get this taken care of for you.
  • If you earned rewards, but did not receive them by November 18th, 23:59 PST, feel free to submit a ticket to Player Support so we can investigate further!

At least I get an icon this time. I appreciate you guys making an effort to not completely leave Bronze out.

I think it's absolutely hilarious....

One of my friends has been banned 6 times in the course of the year, but hasn't played since July, so still gets rewards.

On the other hand my other friend was banned for the first time in August loses rewards, haha!

Terrible show of fairness. Imagine if a similar rule was applied to acts in society. "it's ok if you murder someone before August, but if you murder during the month of august, you will get put in jail".

Either, don't give rewards to anyone who was banned through the WHOLE season. Or give everyone rewards that does not have an active ban within the last month. 3 months is extreme, especially when you should notify everyone in client of the impending change to rewards.

If they haven't been banned again, clearly they have reformed. Things like this, is one reason why i've pretty much stopped playing the game. I've played with some disgustingly toxic players, and i bet a lot of them are still getting rewards.

Reward Distribution ON-GOING? (Yet to see anyone on NA with any rewards) Thumps up Riot. You guys are the best (cough)

Ahntye11/14/2015, 1:38:26 AM6 votes

I can't help but feel annoyed at the amount of people who make specific requests to dArtagnan about checking their profiles for bans and then proceed to badmouth Riot for not understanding their situation or caring about their efforts if they get a negative response...

I mean, dArtagnan's taking the time to check on the individual data, so I just can't help but think that it deserves at least a little respect, even if you don't like the result. [slayer-jinx-unamused]

It would be a great idea to make it so that whoever got banned after august 9th is disqualified rather than players with a ban duration over august 9th for better cooperation with our players. DrMundo

{quoted}

  • Being banned or have active chat/ranked restrictions at November 11th, 00:01 PST
  • Had a 7 or more day suspension active within the past three months prior to the end of the season (August 10th)
  • For example, if you received a 7 day ban on August 2nd and it ended on or sometime before** August 9th,** 23:59 PDT, you are eligible for rewards
  • On the other hand, if you received a 7 day ban on August 3rd and it ended on or after** August 10th, 00:00 PST**, you are in-eligible for rewards

Not meaning to hate or anything but August does not seem to be the correct month to use.

How about at least some clarity on when the distribution will begin/start? It is definitely not on-going as stated on the post cuz no one got anything yet.

Ok i just got to gold today(November 11th). The game says my reward tier is Gold. Will i get victorious sivir or not?

TF Spiderbiggen11/4/2015, 11:16:59 PM2 votes

So do you not get a border and the victorious skin if you get to gold with a team?

Sehtra11/4/2015, 11:10:57 PM1 votes

I recently joined a gold twisted tree line team and was wondering if I'm eligible for the reward (victorious sivir) my team has met all the requirements for it I was wondering if I receive it considering I have not played a single game on the ranked team

Question: If I have an honor Ribbon, will it drape over the loading screen border, or will they be removed/hidden? I know it sounds like a stupid question, but I felt like it wasn't in the program to have so much going on on your loading screen champ border. two ribbons, & frame? Just want to make sure :)
