Don\u2019t worry, so have we. Thankfully, the game mode is set to make a comeback later this year, Riot Games announced today.\u00a0 Riot has provided the full schedule for Clash during the second ranked split of 2023. Apart from three Clash tournaments taking place on Summoner\u2019s Rift, two will be held on the Howling Abyss. The first ARAM Clash tournament of 2023 will be from Aug. 19 to 20, with the lock-in period for that Clash event beginning on Aug. 14.\u00a0 A second ARAM Clash event will be held on Dec. 9 to 10, with the roster lock for that tournament beginning on Dec. 4.\u00a0 Here's the current Clash schedule for the second half of League's 2023 season: Void Cup: July 22 to 23 ARAM Cup 1: Aug. 19 to 20 Ixtal Cup: Sept. 16 to 17 TBD: Oct. 14 to 15 ARAM Cup 2: Dec. 9 to 10 ARAM Clash was originally brought to League last December following the extensive number of changes that the Howling Abyss saw in Patch 12.22. Those changes included the addition of Hexgates, tower rubble, and extra bushes along the sides of the map. And while some of those changes have been toned down, the Howling Abyss still looks drastically different than it did 10 years ago. Prior to last December, ARAM\u2019s map did not receive any major changes since its release in 2013.\u00a0 Related: An old-school control mage is receiving LoL\u2019s first Victorious skin of 2023 Last year\u2019s ARAM Clash event was well-received by the player base, and Riot confirmed in an update earlier today that it was one of the most-participated-in Clash tournaments of all time. The reception to the tournament has convinced Riot to hold annual Clash events outside of Summoner\u2019s Rift on a permanent basis.\u00a0 Riot also confirmed that quality-of-life changes to matchmaking and champion select will be coming to ARAM Clash when the game mode returns on Aug. 19.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/14125218\/ARAM-NewBrush.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/885613"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1865"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=885613"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/885613\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":885657,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/885613\/revisions\/885657"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/733214"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=885613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=885613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=885613"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=885613"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=885613"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=885613"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=885613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
