Switching server regions in League of Legends is a must for players who wish to play with friends from different regions or have relocated. In this article, we’ll walk you through the process in simple steps so you can make this change quickly and easily.
Check Your Eligibility
Before we get into the process of changing server regions, it is essential to confirm your account is eligible for transfer. Riot Games, the developer of League of Legends, only permits one free transfer per account every three years; additional transfers require payment and the fee varies depending on which region you are moving to.
Logging Into Your League of Legends Account
The initial step to changing your server region is logging into your League of Legends account. Launch the game client and click ‘Login’; enter all relevant account info, then click ‘Login.’ If you have forgotten your password, click on ‘Forgot your password?’ link and follow instructions to reset it.
Submitting a Ticket to Riot Games
After signing into your account, you should submit a ticket to their support team. Click the ‘Support’ button located at the top of the game client and select ‘Submit a Request’, selecting Account Management as the category. In the subject line write “Server Transfer Request”. In the message box explain that you wish to transfer your account to another server region and include which region it will be transferred too.
Wait for Response
Once you submit your ticket to Riot Games support, you must wait for a response. Response time may vary but typically takes 24-48 hours. Once received, follow the instructions in the email to complete the transfer process.
Conclusion
Switching server regions in League of Legends is a straightforward process that only takes a few steps. Make sure your account meets the transfer requirements, log in to it, submit a ticket to Riot Games support and wait for their response.
