League of Legends Free Download for PC (LoL) is a multiplayer online battle arena video game developed and published by Riot Games for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. It is a free-to-play game supported by micro-transactions and inspired by the mod Defense of the Ancients for the video game Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.
In League of Legends, players assume the role of an unseen «summoner» that controls a «champion» with unique abilities and battle against a team of other players or computer-controlled champions. In the most popular game modes, the goal is to destroy the opposing team's «nexus», a building which lies at the heart of a base protected by defensive structures. Each League of Legends game is discrete, with all champions starting off each game fairly weak and progressing by accumulating gold and experience over the course of the game.
League of Legends was generally well received at release, and it has grown in popularity in the years since. By July 2012, League of Legends was the most played PC game in North America and Europe in terms of the number of hours played. As of January 2014, over 67 million people play League of Legends per month, 27 million per day, and over 7.5 million concurrently during peak hours. League of Legends Download free Full Version.
League of Legends has a large, active competitive scene. In North America and Europe, Riot Games organizes the League of Legends Championship Series, which consists of 10 professional teams in each continent. Similar regional competitions exist in China, South Korea, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. These regional competitions culminate with the annual League of Legends World Championship, which in 2013 had a grand prize of $1 million and attracted 32 million viewers online. The 2014 tournament had the fifth largest prize pool in esports history, sitting at 2.3 million dollars.
Gameplay
League of Legends is a 3D, third-person multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game. In League of Legends, human or AI-controlled players each control a character, called a champion, and form two opposing teams. In the most popular «classic» mode, each team begins with a central building, called a nexus, protected by defensive structures. The object of each game is to breach the opposing team's base and destroy their nexus. Each nexus will also occasionally spawn weak, autonomous attackers called «minions» that travel along paths called «lanes» toward the enemy base. Between the lanes lies an area called the «jungle», where neutral monsters reside that can be killed by both teams. League of Legends Game free Download Full Version.
Players begin each game with little power and health, as a champion's experience points, gold and items are not preserved between games. Instead, players must gain gold and experience through performing various actions in each game. Though players receive a small amount of gold income passively, both experience and larger quantities of gold are generally only attained through combat, such as by killing other champions, destroying defensive turrets and dealing the final blow to enemy minions. Gold can be used to purchase items, which will provide beneficial effects for a champion, such as being able to deal or absorb more damage and thus be more likely to kill their opponents in combat. A champion will respawn at their base not long after their death, with the delay increasing as the game progresses.
Each champion has distinct abilities with a variety of effects. These effects vary greatly from champion to champion, and include dealing damage, providing buffs to allies and inflicting debuffs to enemies. In addition to the standard abilities, each champion also has a passive ability, which provide various beneficial effects. Furthermore, before each game, each player can select two additional abilities, called «summoner spells», that can be used with any champion.
Other maps include the Twisted Treeline (consisting of two lanes) and the Howling Abyss (consisting of a single lane with no jungle). The other distinct game mode is known as Dominion, in which players are unable to directly attack the opposing nexus; they are only able to damage it indirectly by killing opponents, and capturing and holding the five towers around the map.
All game modes use automated matchmaking based on the Elo formula, with proprietary adjustments.
Player progression
Though each game of League of Legends is discrete, players (known in game as «summoners») do have some persistent elements. A summoner's statistics and scores are tracked and are accessible to the player. Additionally, summoners gain experience points and Influence Points (IP) for each battle they participate in. Influence points can be spent to unlock additional options in the League of Legends Store, including the ability to play new champions. Without purchasing additional champions, a player is limited to using a selection of 10 champions that changes every week. Most options, including champions, can be also purchased using Riot Points (RP), which are bought using real money. Using RP is also the only way to purchased cosmetic skins for a player's champions.

Experience points lead to persistent level gains for the summoner, up to a maximum level of 30. This persistent «summoner level» is distinct from the champion level that is reset between each battle. Gaining summoner levels unlocks Mastery Points and Rune page slots which improve the overall strength of the summoner's chosen champion during battles. Additionally, most summoner spells can only be chosen after reaching a certain summoner level.
Gaining a level also grants a Mastery Point and a new Rune page slot, which can be used to provide small bonuses and effect to a player's champion in battle. Mastery Points can be freely distributed into different Masteries that grant predetermined bonuses, grouped into offensive, defensive, and utility categories. Similar to Masteries, Runes also affect gameplay in minor ways. However, the runes that fill the rune slots must be purchased from the store using Influence Points only. To benefit from runes, summoners must arrange them in their Rune books, which has a limited number of pages. However, more rune pages can be purchased from the store.
A player's behaviour is also tracked between matches, and players that display poor behaviour are sanctioned. These sanctions are sent out by an automated system, and range from a warning, to a chat restriction, to temporary and permanent bans from the game. This system replaced an earlier system which sent game logs to the community to collectively decide whether a player's behaviour was sanctionable. However, permanent bans are still reviewed manually."New player reform system heads into testing". Retrieved July 7, 2015. League of Legends Free Download Torrent.
