Runeterra's Design Director, Andrew Yip, has confirmed changes coming to experience gains in friendly challenges to undo some of the previous patch's changes. These changes will arrive with the next game update Patch 0.9.1.
- Experience gains in friendly challenges will be increased for both wins and losses.
- A cap will remain on the number of games that give you experience in friendly challenges to discourage win-trading.
- More changes will arrive in the future with better solutions.
We don't have the exact numbers, but in the last patch, experience was changed so that you would get 0 experience for a loss or tied game and only 100 for a win. These were decreased from 200 XP for a win and 100 XP for a loss.
Friendly Challenge Experience Rates
0.8.3 | 0.9.0 | 0.9.1 | |
---|---|---|---|
Win XP | 200 | 100 | ? |
Loss XP | 100 | 0 | ? |
Quote From Andrew Yip Last patch we made a change to friend challenge XP intended to curb surrender win trading. It accomplished that, but also caused a lot of unintended pain to players just looking to game with friends. We’re going to fix this in a couple steps.
Short term (next patch, 0.9.1) we’ll increase friend challenge XP for both wins and losses, but keep the cap on games so players don’t feel compelled to trade again. There are better solutions, but that won’t land for several patches.
We have some other changes to this system coming that I’m excited for the team to share soon too. Thanks for the feedback; see you in game!

This comment isn't about the article, but about the art on the article thumbnail. It looks incredibly familiar to me: https://eternalwarcry.com/cards/d/7-152/ramba-arena-showman
Hey fam this isn’t about the article but had a question regarding the starter bundle. Do the cards just appear in your collection when you buy it or do you have to open a chest or something? I notice some of the cards are there in my collectionsbut there are a few missing I didn’t check to see if I had those cards before purchasing, and if it’s a bug and I am supposed to have those cards then I’ll send a ticket to support. Thanks in advance!
They just appear. If you had 2-3 copies already bundle gets discounted for any possible dupes
Thanks. Then I must have a bug because I’m definitely missing some of the listed cards.
Just note it doesn't give you 3 copies, it gives you 2 copies of commons and rares, and 1 copy of epic
To notice this I would need friends who play in NA...

I don't want "friends" just so that I have someone on the list =)
