In 2024, Riot is adding in some fun and unique in-game quests for specific champion rivalries. These will give champions unique buffs. Thanks to some data miners, we know which champions are getting these in-game quests.
To make League of Legends a little more exciting in 2024, Riot is going to be adding some in-game quests for specific champions, when they match up against their rivals. This has already been added for Hwei and Jhin in LoL Patch 13.24, but there are a lot more to follow.
There are multiple quests for players to complete with some cool rewards. Thanks to data miners, we've already got some information on the quests.
LoL Season 14: In-Game Quests Found By Data Miners
There isn't too much information on the upcoming in-game quests for champion rivals. Riot also hasn't added in unique icons for them yet, but we know they're coming thanks to some information from data miners who have found the quests and their rewards.

With the new Season 14 cinematic 'Still Here' Kindred and Tryndamere's relationship got a lot of attention. In the video, Tryndamere 'defies death' and is able to escape from Kindred, which were ready to hunt him down. For this occasion, Riot added a new mission to the Summoner's Rift.

Bel'Veth Instructions

Jax Loss: Grandmaster of None
Jax did not slay Baron Nashor, preventing him from reaching his true strength.
Shen Vs. Zed - Battle of Spirit and Shadow
These two are well-known rivals. Having once been partners, their ideologies have drifted too far apart and ended up as rivals. So it's no surprise that Riot has added a quest into the game for these two.

This isn't the first time Riot is featuring these types of quests. There used to be the 'Battle for Freljord' quest in the game which featured Ashe, Sejuani and Lissandra, but the quest was removed in Season 9. It's nice to see these make a comeback, so we'll see just what the conditions for the quests are and when they will be in the game.
