[Related: Wild Rift patch 4.1b notes]
In prior seasons, players needed to reach Diamond IV to quality for Legendary Queue. But for Wild Rift season 9, the new requirement is in fact Master rank — the tier above Diamond. In addition, players must maintain Diamond IV+ in the normal ranked queue.
This means Wild Rift Legendary Queue players must keep to a relatively high rank to remain qualified for the exclusive ranked mode, and therefore cannot completely neglect their performance in normal ranked games.
Last but not least, the mastery score requirements for champions is 1000, raised from the previous 400. In other words, players must have a decent amount of experience on their chosen champion to be able to lock them in. They cannot just first-time a champion, which should increase competitive integrity among the Legendary Queue community.
As previously mentioned, Wild Rift Legendary Queue is available during limited times. Depending on the region, the game mode is open for either six or twelve hours a day. The official start dates are also different for each region.
Here are all the official start dates and times for the upcoming season of Legendary Queue, taken directly from the official Wild Rift website.
