League of Legends

MOBA

League of Legends is Riot Games' free-to-play team strategy game, released in 2009. Two teams of five champions fight across Summoner's Rift to destroy the enemy Nexus, each player in a role: top, jungle, mid, bot (ADC) or support. Games are won through laning and wave management, vision, objectives such as dragons, Voidgrubs, Rift Herald and Baron, and good teamfighting, with items, runes and summoner spells adapted to every match. Besides ranked Solo/Duo queue there are rotating modes such as ARAM Mayhem and Arena, and the 2026 season added changes like role quests.
