It’s that time again—update day in League of Legends. Patch 25.10 just dropped, and yes, we’ve got all the patch notes buzzing around. But really, my head’s been spinning about what’s coming in 25.11. Odd fact? No new skins in the Pipeline this time. I can’t remember the last time that happened. Seems Riot’s been neck-deep in reworking the Masque of the Black Rose skins instead. They’re a bit controversial, to say the least.
So, this year’s kickoff for LoL was, well, let’s just say rocky. Those pricey skins just didn’t hit the sweet spot. Then boom, Masque of the Black Rose launches early 2025—comes with the battle pass and everything—and…meh. Lovely splash art though. The set has this sneaky secret society vibe with Elise, Ezreal, Renata Glasc, Samira, Vladimir, and a shiny Prestige Katarina. But when you actually rock them in-game? Fans weren’t exactly cheering. Kinda basic, if you ask around. Not the bang for your buck everyone hoped for.
Now, we’re seeing 25.11 shake up the scene, with the Public Beta Environment showcasing a facelift for this skin line. Upgraded looks for Elise, Renata, Samira, and Vladimir. Seriously, check out SkinSpotlights’ before and after video—it’s like night and day.
Funny thing though, reworking these skins has its consequences. Riot paused on launching new skins they were planning, to give Masque of the Black Rose some TLC—as in, model touch-ups, texture magic, and VFX goodness. So yup, 25.11 is arriving skinless. Crazy, right?
Riot did mention something about an “upcoming window,” and honestly, it’s anyone’s guess if that means more patches without new skins. I mean, two patches in a row without fresh skins? Seems nuts. But hey, who knows?
Circle May 28 on your calendar for patch 25.11 hitting the scene, if Riot sticks to their usual roll-out vibe. Meanwhile, if you’re itching for more, maybe dive into the LoL Mythic Shop or see who’s dominating today’s tier lists.
