Riot Games is changing things up in the way they announced League of Legends champion and skin sales. Rather than the static bi-weekly publishing schedule in which announcements are made Monday and Thursday, Riot is looking into an alternate way to announce sales. Part of the reason is that players sometimes buy skins or champions only to see that they go on sale the next day. So to help with this, Riot is experimenting with a new format in which they announce the entire month worth of sales in advance "so that players can plan for the champ(s) and skin(s) that they really want to buy."
"This will be the first of a few small tweaks from the ecommerce team to try and relieve some player pain," Riot explained. "If it's well-received, we may bring the experiment back in the future."
So here is the entire month of weekly sales for May. riot notes that this advanced notice moves these sales into the category of pre-announced promotions, meaning they won't be offering partial refunds on content bought between now and each sale. So mark your calendars.
