When do patches usually go live?

I was just wondering, last night I heard that Slayer Jinx, Slayer Pantheon, and Zombie Nunu would be coming out today, along with patch 5.20 main. As a Vayne/Sivir/Jinx main, I was incredibly excited for the new Jinx skin. I barely could sleep last night tbh. So my main questions are; When will patch 5.20 come out? And will Slayer Jinx be released within that patch/on the same day?

Patch times can be found on the Service Status page. And usually, no, skins/champions aren't released immediately with the patch. Content is usually staggered through the weeks of that patch so people don't grab it on day 1 then leave until the next patch. That doesn't mean they never get released immediately, just not most content. Patch is on Thursday rather than the usual Wednesday so who knows?

On 10/29/15, starting at, 01:30 Pacific time (08:30 UTC), ranked queues will be disabled in preparation for patch 5.21. At 03:00 Pacific time (10:00 UTC), the servers will be shut down and all games currently in progress will end in a draw and stats will not be recorded. We estimate the battlegrounds will be unavailable for 3 hours.
