Riot Games is looking to lessen toxicity around the surrender vote\u2060\u2014and make them run more smoothly\u2060\u2014with a suite of major changes in League of Legends <\/em>Patch 13.16, including hiding voter names, delaying repetitive vote calls from individual players, and automatic resolutions for split votes.<\/p>
The surrender vote changes, unveiled by League <\/em>product lead Chris \u201cAuberaun\u201d Roberts<\/a> on Aug. 10, will also include UI tweaks for the vote boxes.<\/p>
Riot is well aware of the issues and is now prioritizing anything that will make the feature more valuable again. The League <\/em>devs did already ship minor tweaks to 15-minute voting in Patch 13.7 in April<\/a>, but these August changes are the first step in a more concerted effort across the rest of the year.<\/p>
