LoL devs walk back death timer changes to slow early game again

Riot Games is still trying to find a sweet spot for the League of Legends death timers on Summoner’s Rift. As the balance quest continues, the League developers will be ballooning how long players stay dead early.

Starting from League Patch 14.16, players who die in the first nine levels of games on the Rift will now take longer to get back into the action. First, it’s going to take four seconds more between levels one and eight. Then, any deaths at level nine will be extended out by two seconds. Level 10 onward will stay the same.
