How To Change Name On Riot Games (Riot ID)

This guide will show you how to change you Riot Games ID.

Check out this guide to know how you can change your Riot ID and Username.

Many of us are familiar with having poor name choices starting in Valorant or League of Legends which seemed like a good idea at the time but now it does not feel cool anymore. And since you would want to get rid of your old username and look for a fresh start, you might want to change your Riot ID. However, with that being said, there are quite a few things that you will need to keep in mind while getting rid of your old alias.

Since the Riot ID is universal and used across all the games the developer has to offer, changing your name will change how it appears in every game. While the service to rework your Riot ID is completely free, you will be able to do it only after a certain period. So if you are looking to have a new username and not let the old one stick around for a long time, then here is a guide you should check out further.
