If VAL isn't launching or is launching into a black screen after the latest patch, first try restarting your PC. If that doesn't work, a clean reinstall of your graphics drivers may resolve the issue. We hope this helps while we work on a fix.
Due to a recent backend system update, some players have received a Name Change notification despite having an appropriate Riot ID. If this happened to you, check Changing Your Riot ID to see what you can do (like keeping your game name!) and can't do (like using the original server tagline, eg. NA1, EUW1, etc). And sorry for the inconvenience—some decade-old systems just won't modernize without a fight.
You know, winning isn’t everything. Winning with style, however, totally is. Player Cards are a way for you to show off a bit and let everyone know who you are and what you’re all about. Let the Cards speak for themselves as you sport your favorite Agent or signature look on the Character Select screen. Everyone will see your choice in both Match History and in-game.
You can earn Player Cards through Contract progression as well as in bundles, which you can purchase in the Store using your VP.
This site isn't even our final form.
