The many onlookers who wonder what League of Legends is and who perhaps want to start understanding more and start playing must first understand precisely what League of Legends is. This is a game available for PC that is part of the MOBA category, ie “Multiplayer Online Battle Arena”, a sub-genre of real-time strategic video games. The game was developed by Riot Games, which recently also launched a version for portable devices which generated further notoriety and success for this popular game.
Let's now analyze in great detail what the game consists of and what the objectives are. League of Legends is played on a closed map and features two teams, each made up of five elements. These players are called champions and you can choose from over 140 examples. You will understand for yourself that such a large number of champions allows you to create almost infinite combinations and all with unique characteristics, because each champion has different abilities and skills from the others.
The aim of the game is quite simple: to conquer the opponent's base while keeping your own. The bases are also called headquarters and are located at opposite ends of the map. During the teams' journey to enemy headquarters, champions may come across outposts and towers, which will need to be overcome in order to get to the coveted opposing bases.
In addition, each team can also create armies controlled by artificial intelligence, so that they follow predetermined paths, in an attempt to facilitate the task of the team they belong to. These armies are made up of the so-called minions, which can also be killed by champions.
Going back to the champions, they not only aim to preserve their base and conquer the opponent's one, but they must also think about increasing their abilities and buying new, more powerful weapons to be able to get rid of enemies more easily. To this end, it is essential that the champions gain experience, for example by discovering unexplored areas of the map, perhaps hunting for treasures and loot or minions to be assassinated or getting rid of enemies. In any case, it is good that each champion helps their team trying to exploit their skills as much as possible and fully fulfilling the role assigned to them.
In addition to being a game with a huge following, League of Legends is a full part of eSports. In fact, real tournaments are organized, even at a global level, which see the main and best players of LoL who compete in battles to the last blow. It is also possible to bet on these matches, since most AAMS bookmakers now share these virtual races in their schedule. The best bookmakers don't just quote the winning team, they also offer alternative markets, which include handicap betting, over and under betting on the number of maps, which team will win a given map, and so on. To have all the information you need to bet in an informed way, it is important to know the statistical LoLs that provide fundamental data to try to predict the outcome of a match as reliably as possible.
