There are so many MOBA games out there in the world, but one of the most interesting ones is League of Legends. This game was launched over a decade ago and has gained popularity the moment it was released. The game was noticed thanks to the numerous tournaments it has hosted each and every year allowing players from all over the world to showcase their skills on stage.
Due to the excitement of the professional games being displayed to the world, people were started to take an interest in the game itself. Wondering how the game is being played and what specific skill they need in order to play the game. Some people may think that you do not need any skill to play any games, but that is just false. Well, it is partially since skill can be developed through experience, the more time you spend on it the more experience you have with the game. But when starting with no skill or knowledge of the game can be a real struggle since you will constantly get flamed by your teammates and your opponents. For this reason, this article will provide you will the knowledge you need to know about the game itself.
Game Concept
To make it short, the concept of the game is similar to the concept of capture the flag. Basically, all we have to do is destroy the enemy’s base before they destroy ours. But the process of destroying is not as simple as it sounds, throughout the game you will have to level up your character. In order to level up, you would have to kill minions or we call it creeps to gain experience and gold. Another method to earn gold is to kill an enemy character but doing so will not grant you experience to level up. The gold you own will be used to purchase items that will enhance your physical, magical, defense, and speed attributes. The more items you have in the game the stronger you become, but not all items are suitable for every character as you would have to understand the characters themselves to build the right set for your game.
Character
As we have mentioned above, there are many characters and items that are not compatible with one another. So to build the right set of items you would have to understand the type of characters. In League of Legends, we have Assassins, Fighter, Mage, Marksman, and Support. Assassins are your typical character that awaits ambush on the less tanky characters, especially those they can finish up in 1 second. As for fighters they are the front-line characters or better known as the Juggernaut, they are the first to enter the fight and take all the damage in order to protect the strongest member. This brings us to the Marksman, they are the main damage dealer and the one the team will hope to take the game home to the enemy base. Finally, we have the Support and their role is to provide the team with utilities, healing, and most importantly the crowd control. These characters are valued among others because they can be the deciding factor of the game as they provide support not just for the Marksman but the entire team.
In conclusion, before starting the game make sure to understand the character you are playing and build the items according to the type of your selected character.
