No New Champion This Week?

So I’ve noticed that pretty much since the beginning of this game new champs have been released every other week. Last week was Annihilus and now this week is Domino. Usually the only exception is the end of the year when they do that year’s crystal. Has anything changed?

    Yes, the schedule was changed in 2020. Now champions are only released on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month. No more 3 champion months.

    February official releases will be on the 13 and 27.

    Ah got it. Thanks I must’ve forgotten about that.

    Just logically, if 2 new champs a month, but all but 1 month is 2-3 days longer than 4 weeks, there would obviously have to be some “skip” weeks.

    Sometimes they are taken up by special alternatives, but if not, and if only releasing 2 new a month, there will occasionally be “leap week” (to use a comparison example).

    It hasn’t always been only 2 champs a month though. Sometimes it was 3 that’s why I was asking. Plus if they released a champ on the 6th and again on the 20th that would only be two this month.
