Ranked Reset 10.9 – Year 10 Season 4
Additional time for game start
Game Modes – Conquest
Year 10 Season 4 Conquest provides an expansion on the existing Stygian Beacon and Unleashed Titan mechanics. The capture point style objective has been a positive addition to the mode, creating new opportunities for teams to contest objectives or allowing teams that are behind to find moments to farm. By introducing a second loop and changing the reward, it also shifts some of the focus making the objective continuously more important for the late-game
Shaman camps and Spirit totems provide a new twist on the time tested jungle buff collection mechanic. These randomized empowerment effects allow for minor variations in each game and a new type of player choice. There is always the safe option that you can rely on and invading is not a heavy penalty but denying experience and farm is always a valid choice.
Finally the new Fire Giant pit and surrounding Jungle layout will be unlike previous iterations. The open area allows for more movement in a previously closed off setting. There are a lot more ambush and steal opportunities and generally a new way to play around an old objective.

Conquest Balance
There has been a lot of change this year in both the strength of the map objectives and also player power itself. One thing that has been a constant trend is the slight increase in game time, getting to a point where Conquest matches can get a little longer than might feel good. Snowball and comeback mechanics are the key mechanism driving these changes and ones that we have been acutely aware of with each shift. The goal for the following changes are to slightly decrease the comeback gold gained for the Cyclops Chests as well as shifting rewards towards the contestable map objectives, both areas that we have previously tweaked with and found successful in doing so.
