Bugfixes & QoL Changes

“Hide My Name” and “Hide My Identifying Info” Streamer Mode settings are now respected in other player's spectator streams. e.g. if Spectator1 spectates their friend, Player1, any players in Player1's lobby with Streamer Mode enabled will have their name and/or information hidden in the spectator stream.
In order to better protect players from negative in-game experiences, we're continuing to enhance Streamer Mode and shift public spectator experiences towards replays. The ability to spectate live games directly from ranked leaderboards is being replaced with a shortcut to that player's match history and replays. Right-click player name on ranked leaderboard > Match History.
Added capability to access replays directly through Riot API. More details available in Riot Developer Portal .
Updated AFK detection to better account for situations where players are disconnecting throughout the game.
Fixed an issue where casting Sion's Death Surge while his Passive is active would activate Experimental Hexplate.
Fixed an issue where Skarner's Q would sometimes be on cooldown for longer than intended in the practice tool after restarting a game.
Fixed an issue where Ambessa doesn't lose a passive charge if the target died mid auto attack.
Fixed an issue where Garen could stack his W passive without learning his W.
Fixed an issue in Swiftplay where Lethal Tempo rune would get automatically swapped to a champion's default in certain regions.
Fixed an issue where if Mel reflected Vel'Koz's Q it would reset the cooldown of her Q.
Fixed an issue where Mundo's E bonus damage would reach its maximum at 30% missing health.
Fixed an issue where the amount of Cassiopeia's W damage ticks would be doubled if an enemy would walk into previously created clouds.
Fixed an issue where Rengar would fail to stack Conquerer or Lethal Tempo when jumping from brush.
Fixed an issue where Nocturne's R dash could fail to follow an enemy champion until the collision.
Fixed an issue where Aurora's Spirits could be visible for other champions.
Fixed an issue that caused Star Guardian Senna's R VFX to be distorted.
