How To Disable Voice Chat In League of Legends?

Voice chat is a crucial part of an online game to allow better communication. Riot Games added this highly requested feature after a long time to League of Legends. However, since players prefer Discord and other communication applications, we will show you how to disable voice chat in League of Legends. 

While League Voice is an excellent feature in the game, it can get annoying if you automatically connect to it even though you are speaking with your friends on Discord. Plus, since you can only talk to people that are in your party, it doesnโ€™t matter when you are playing solo.

To disable League Voice, you need to open Settings and go to the Voice tab. Once you are there, uncheck the โ€œjoin voice automaticallyโ€ option. Press โ€œDoneโ€ to save your settings and you wonโ€™t randomly join voice chat anymore.

In-Game

It can be problematic if you are already in the game but have the voice chat turned on. You might not want to talk to a certain person if they are raging or you just want to turn off your voice. In any case, worry not because you can disable voice chat even if you are in the game.

  2. Click on the Microphone icon signifying the League Voice.
  3. Click on the Telephone icon to disconnect from League Voice completely.

From the Client

The best way to permanently disable your voice chat is from the clientsโ€™ settings. While it involves more steps than turning off the chat from in-game, you never have to worry about randomly connecting to the voice chat if you disable it from the client.

  2. Open Settings.
  3. Go to the Voice Tab.
  4. Uncheck the โ€œJoin Voice Channel Automaticallyโ€ option.
