Riot confirmed Riot Clash FAQ
Where each date comes from
- Riot confirmed
- A Riot page gives this date: the patch schedule, a support article, the Clash FAQ or the patch notes. The link on the row is that page.
- Pattern
- Worked out from a habit Riot has kept. Patch notes went up the day before each of the last six patches, so the next two get a date too.
- Game files
- Read from the game files. It tells you a patch is on the test server or a new queue exists. It never supplies a date by itself.
Times are Pacific in the page and switch to your own clock once it loads. Clash and ranked starts follow your server's local time.
