League of Legends is not just a game: it's a cutthroat competitive digital sport where the winners roar in victory and the losers whimper in defeat. You don't need to play on the same level as the pros to experience the thrills of these online battlegrounds, however. Blending elements of action role-playing, real-time strategy, and tower defense games into an engrossing amalgam of awesome, League of Legends is a free-to-play game that ensures each play session yields a unique and explosive experience.

Each player in a match controls a single champion. In the default game mode, Summoner's Rift, two teams of five champions are pitted against each another with the  goal of destroying the opposing team's nexus, which is guarded by three lanes of towers. Each person starts the game at level 1 with no items and just enough gold to buy some cheap, weak items to get them through the laning phase. In the early phase the game is pretty slow most of it just comes down to killing minions and occasionally nabbing a kill on the opposing person, however, things start to pick up later in the game when people start getting key items the game turns from a passive farmfest to a fast paced action packed battlefield. All in all league is a game that's hard to get into, but, for those that choose to learn the ropes it turns into a fun and addicting time eater that can givbe you some of the best and sometimes rage inducing moments of your life
