Heads up!

From next week onward, these articles are going away and Free to Play rotation information will live exclusively in the client. Nothing else is changing—there'll still be 14 champions on rotation each week.

To check the rotation in client, click the "Free Champion Rotation" button in the upper right-hand corner of the Overview tab. You can also head to the Collections page, click into the Champions tab, then change "All Champions" beneath the search bar to "Free Champion Rotation".

I am sad to see the free champion rotation announcements going away like skins sales announcements went away. I haven't had access to the client on a regular and reliable basis, so for the longest time the only way to know what was free or what was available was to check the league website. It helped me prepare for those rare occasions when I did have access to the client and could play the game (such as looking up a free champion's abilities in advance.) Now that this information will no longer be on the League website, being ready when I do have access is going to be much harder. [sg-soraka] I suppose Riot has their reasons though. I have to admit, the News page has been a lot less cluttered ever since sales announcements were done away with. And i guess i could look this information up on the league of legends wiki. I am worried about getting malware though, seeing as how there tends to be a large number of malware awaiting to infect your computer on fan-made fansites. I guess i will make it anyway somehow.

I enjoyed seeing what champions would be on free rotation ahead of time, even if it was only like a day early. Restricting it to the client means I have to wait for the rotation to happen to know.

Aww... these announcements are gonna be some big nostalgia aren't they. One of the first things riot put on this site, gone.

The problem with not having this anymore is it becomes harder to see the ARAM free champions. Currently, you can click on the "Free Rotation" beard crumb at the top to see a list of the past three weeks graphic and can see the 42 free champions in ARAM. The Wiki or op.gg don't show a full list since they only show the current weeks. :(

Aw :( I use this all the time, I'm sad to see it go away.. often times I can't log into the client cause I'm at work. How come these are going away? :/
