League of Legends' Missions Are Becoming More Diverse, Better Loot on the Way
Several changes are coming to the missions in League of Legends to create a better experience for [...]
Mission Improvements
One of the options that players can soon look forward to is missions that have options to them that should account for everyone's preferred playstyle. An example that was provided was either killing 500 minions or jungle monsters or getting 30 assists, something that any player should be able to achieve.
Another method of improving the missions is putting more emphasis on winning games when completing the goals. Simply winning a game isn't much of a mission since you're already trying to do that, so that goal is being added to normal missions. For example, one proposed mission was to get 100 assists, and each game that players win will double the assist count for that game towards their goal.

The last part of the missions that are being improved – and likely the one that players care about the most – is the loot that players obtain through the challenges.
At the moment, Riot says that there are basically three types of rewards: A standard reward, commitment rewards, and skill rewards. The standard incentives include loot tokens, Blue Essence, and Summoner Icons, and they'll also include XP when the level cap is removed. Commitment rewards on the other hand are the rewards that players can earn during limited-time events such as Arcade Summoner Icons and launch borders for skins. The final category, the skill rewards, are for those who complete extremely challenging missions. These will be added sparingly to avoid getting stale, but all of the missions are expected to get better loot options soon.
"Overall, our goal is for Missions to open you up to new experiences and challenges," the post read. "When you complete them, you should feel incredibly satisfied and proud—and have something to remember and commemorate your accomplishment. We hope we can deliver on that goal."
