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.

Checked November 9, 2026, 1:44 AM PT.
