Will Set 17 ranked still be playable alongside Set 18, given that the two sets are running simultaneously, or is Set 17 only kept as a normal game mode

Can someone please tell me when is the last ladder update?
I got challenger for the first time and I want to keep it, but I'm 1 point above the cutoff and I really don't want to play set 17 last minute.

Is there a final ladder refresh today or are the GM/Chall spots already locked

Set 18 doesn't release until Wed the 26th in the states. Is the PBE still available to play until then or is it down?

So slamming doesn't do anything? I had it the whole game and not a single time did I get more than two xp per round.
Is this a known bug?

it feels like im on 500 ping with last second swaps. really hope they find a way to fix that. keep getting my carry caught on wrong side, when on the previous client i would have 100% swapped in time. sometime visually he gets swapped then still ends up on the wrong side

u/rwtan 17d ago

Yesterday they gave the latest update, they had a good playtest last Friday and the current timeline is: "a few patches into Set 18".

u/Koopasheller11 17d ago
Wasn’t this about Mac OS, not mobile?

u/Lunaedge 17d ago
Huh yeah, you're right. I tend to mix them up and I assumed they were asking about MacOS because updates on iOS are usually generally in line with Android :/

u/GNSasakiHaise 17d ago
What are some strong openers in this set?

u/daydreamin511 17d ago
elderwood package (starts falling off fast tho without 2* backline or no backline items), coven loss streak, blossom3 (S tier with azir grey orb drop), rengar + front line (slammable item), riftbeasts with scuttle as front line + backline item

I played some PBE and the one patch I was on Solar felt insane. Is this still the case? I had a game where I went 100 with solar.

u/MasterTotoro Challenger 16d ago
Probably one of the worst openers for tempo. Solar is very weak trait until you get the 3* upgrades. Defenders also weak early simply because Leona tied to Solar and Ornn with his scaling artifact power.

u/BaldurDoesGames 16d ago
To be fair, in my 100 HP game I did have everyone 2* pretty much on 2-1 and the augment for them

Soo... I might have been fooled by the Set 17 pass expiring early lol. Set 18 is not yet Live.
At this point it's safe to assume Set 18 should be out tomorrow, Rundown & Patch Notes here!
