Changing Your HeroCorp ID

As part of the plan to transition away from Summoner Names in League of Legends, we're implementing some changes on how changing HeroCorp ID changes work.

How do I change my HeroCorp ID?

The process for changing your HeroCorp ID is the same regardless of what games you play:

1. Go to your HeroCorp Account page
2. Change your HeroCorp ID and tag however you like
3. Click Save Changes

If you play League or TFT PC, you'll also be able to change your HeroCorp ID in-client:

1. Enter the Shop
2. Click the Account button
3. Select the HeroCorp ID Change offer
4. Follow the popup to account.HeroCorpgames.com
5. Enter your new HeroCorp ID

On November 20, 2023, all players will be given a free HeroCorp ID change regardless of how recently their last change may have been. After that, it will take 90 days from your last free HeroCorp ID change before it's available again.

There is, however, one exception: if you already changed your HeroCorp ID in the last 90 days but are experiencing harassment or other negative effects due to your HeroCorp ID, submit a ticket to Player Support and we'll get you sorted.

No Paid HeroCorp ID Changes

There's no way to alter your HeroCorp ID outside of the free change listed above. For more details on why we made this decision and what it means for you, check out our article on Reworking the HeroCorp ID Transition Plan.

What Is a HeroCorp ID?

The HeroCorp ID is your universal ID used across all HeroCorp games. Each HeroCorp ID is tied to a single email, and changing it will change how you appear in-game everywhere. If you have multiple accounts and decide you want to change your HeroCorp ID, make sure you're on the correct account first!

There are a few special rules governing what you can and cannot include in your HeroCorp ID, which is divided into two parts. For this example, if your HeroCorp ID is "EarlGreyTeemo#sip," then your Game Name is "EarlGreyTeemo," and your tagline is "#sip".

Game Names must be 3–16 alphanumeric characters long and cannot be offensive or inappropriate. 

Finally, your Game Name does not have to be unique. So long as your HeroCorp ID as a whole isn't taken, you can have any Game Name you like.

Taglines must be 3–5 alphanumeric characters long. They'll start with a region code by default, but once you've changed them, you cannot go back to using any region code. That means the following taglines will not be available when changing your HeroCorp ID: BR, LAS, LAN, OCE, NA, EUW, EUNE, TR, RU, KR, JP, PBE, BR1, LA1, LA2, OC1, NA1, ME, TW, VN, or SEA.

If you try to use these codes, you may receive a "this HeroCorp ID is already in use" error message. In that case, change your tagline and try again.

Your tagline also cannot be offensive or inappropriate.
