League of Legends Features

Just like many other games in MOBA genre, the above game mix real-time strategy aspects the elements in RPG. The premise of League of Legends is quite simple; at least two teams of five battles it out and win by destroying their enemy’s primary structure (commonly referred to as nexus). A single match typically lasts between 35 and 45 minutes, but in some instances, the game can drag on for well over one or two hours.

With an ever-increasing pool of playable champions, which stands at over 120, and radically new changes coming in every other season, League of Legends does not get stale. The above game is immensely successful, and this warm reception among gamers is attributed to the fact that the game is full of fun at all skill levels.

As stated, the basic premise of the above game is easy to grasp, but I have noted that mastering all game aspects takes several years of dedication. Players can test their abilities and skills in ranked matches, and as you progress, you climb way up your ladder. At the moment, the ladder divisions in the Legends of Legends include Bronze, Gold, Master, Challenger, Silver, Diamond, and Platinum.

In the above MOBA game, players assume the role of an unseen ‘summoner’ that controls a ‘champion’ with incredible battle and unique abilities against computer-controlled champions or a team of other players. The game consists of at least three running game modes, which include Howling Abyss, Twisted Treeline, and Summoner’s Rift.

In the past, the game used to have four game modes, however, the game mode played on The Crystal Scar has been removed. In each game mode, teams work in unison to accomplish a terminal objective and to hold the strategic points for the longest period. Besides that, each game mode includes a variety of smaller transitional goals that give gamers and teams benefits in achieving overall victory.
