League of Legends: Wild Rift Ranked Season 1 Release Date, End Date and Rewards

Ranking is what makes a game more competitive and fun, and while there are different types of modes, the ranked mode in League of Legends: Wild Rift is mainly what players prefer to play because of its fair matchmaking system that lets them duel against other players with similar ranks. After the match is over, your rank is adjusted based on your performance and other players’ ranks. In case you want to know more about the Ranking System of the game, we have made a dedicated article explaining the Ranked Tiers, Ranked Marks, Matchmaking, and more here.

League of Legends: Wild Rift Season 0, which started on October 7, 2020, when the game entered the open beta testing phase, is currently underway and will be ending soon. The players, meanwhile, can rank up to play with better players and earn exciting rewards. Riot Games has announced the release date and a bunch of other details regarding the first official season of the game, i.e., League of Legends: Wild Rift Season 1.
