    nine because the game is fun and addicting with many strategies you can make and champions have different skill sets. not 10 because they need to solve the lag in the game. ty

    One of the most fun MOBA games I have ever played! Tons of Champion, unique Skins and Abilities. The champion Lore is really cool also. Riot games have done an amazing job with this game. They always impress me with the new skins and gamemode they release! The only bad thing about this game is the community and how TOXIC some people can be. (Overall: 7/10)

    Alright. So I have played this game for little over a year now, and after looking at the review I'm just gonna have to point out a few things.

IP is rewarded based on how you do and you can unlock more champions this way. I know it takes a long time, but its supposed to. You are not supposed to get all of the champions in 1 year, unless you want to pay. And thats the thing, if all you are doing is "Grinding" then this game isnt for you.

    If graphics is all that matters to you then you should go play something else because this game is NOT about graphics, even though they have redone the art design recently its still not the best, but this doesnt affect me, if it affects you, then go play the Witcher 3.

    Overall this game is very addictive, and especially with 4 friends, you can all collaborate via skype and its just really really fun. I have spent almost 500 hours with this game and still going.
    Also "Free to play" isnt exactly true, if you know what i mean XD. (Skins m8)    … Expand

    I've been playing this game since open beta, so I have a ton of experience of all the changes the game has went through.

    First of, if you are ONLY looking at the visual side of things, holy crap, the game has improved a lot. It was pretty ugly and all the models were very low polygon count. Nowadays it's far greater graphically, map is super nice, spells look super flashy and well created.

    But the gameplay has taken... ummm... a slight downturn. I never understood the necessity of bushes but I let that go since you were always able to put a ward down.

    Nowadays every single lane has like 3 bushes, so there's never enough actual vision you can achieve to protect yourself from ganks. In old days when you got ahead or got ganked, you purchased 75g ward and were relatively safe. Now you buy pink ward and you're burning that ward out with saving maybe a second or two from an individual gank. Ward gets taken down and you can't do anything.

    Now if you have AFK teammember, you no longer are able to go to soak lane or go to jungle, in case something went wrong in champion select. You're FORCED into a role and the system has been tweaked so hard to not allow any variety. I cleared red, blue and frog with Graves without smite and I was still level 1.

    Also there's a lot of champions that got weaker over time for no good reason. Talon used to be amazing assassin who could delete opponent. Now he's much slower to gank and his burst does far more damage than a single Leblanc Q+W. Maybe he's gotten little safer to escape after ganks but I liked the old kit where he was able to 1v5 when fed.

    Xerath used to have a cool unique technique that was fully counterable by strong initiate, that got taken away while he still retains the strong burst and range. I miss the old Galio who could play as support. Now you're pretty much forced mid because you can't survive 2v2 without very specific set of runes and having ultra aware ADC, enemy who over extends etc. There's just so many champions that can do better than him.

    This game needs to go back to its roots (mechanically) and take some steps to make each champion to have an unique Strength rather than having every new champion overloaded with 10 different mechanics.

    I mean it's cool to play them, but you're pretty much forced to one trick champion nowadays if you attempt to do any climbing, and playing one champion is ULTRA boring. I miss the time I could just pick something wacky like Sion support and just spam stun and shield explosion, use money to buy wards and roam. A place where we could experiment new things. Now you're pretty much forced to babysit ADC because all your money generation items require having a teammate next to you.

    I think the community took huge dump downward in season 3 and forward and nowadays you cannot go a single game without someone getting blamed for trolling or intentionally feeding or just asking to report for no reason.

    I still play it because I like the game, but I feel it has now far less skill expression due to how much less vision you're able to give to your team if you're not support, or if you're support, how little you're allowed to roam, how easy it's to die when behind.

    Oh I almost forgot the extremely high snowball due to how much damage s10 and s11 have wrought with first the rune rework (everyone was complaining the damage was too high) and now s11 where the main core items get given in full strength, easily doing an additional 200 damage boost from abilities, or/and leaping character forward.

    I guess the items could be good buy there already was summoners which were supposed to be these ultimate rescue items. Now you got Jhin with Heal who speeds up, flash, slow due to trap and 2nd leap with item, and you literally cannot catch this immobile champ anymore, and it's supposed to be its weakness.

    Baron buff is way too strong now and dragons give permanent buffs that are impossible to be gained. Rift Herald was cool at first but should have been severely nerfed. Jeesus, if you have some champs with ability to kill towers fast on a solo lane, and you get killed by ganks, you might lose all towers and even the first tower in core. It's just too much.    … Expand

    I love League of Legends and i've been playing it for a while. I dont give it a 10 because the community do not deserve it. Too much rage which is hard to ignore sometimes. Apart from that its amazing what you can do there. So many things to learn and to improve.

    Positive:
    1. Free to play, people cannot buy true advantages via money
    2. A lot of variety thanks to a lot of content (at least in terms of champions)
    3. The laddering system works quite fine

    I give 5 out of 10 points because it sometimes is quite funny to play, but while it might help smashing spare time, there are not really reasons why I would see more in this game than an average title with more content than soul.

And yeah, since I've played the game for a while I'll admit that the community is not exactly the most welcoming one ever, and yeah it's kinda toxic compared to some other games, but most of the matches that I've been in don't involve any arguing or toxicity. Sure, I've seen a few flame wars now and then, but for the most part the players in the match are mellow.

    But enough of all that. Of course, you want to know why I am such a big fan of this game. I will enlighten you of that right now.

    So League is a MOBA game about tactics, strategy, and cooperation among teammates. The gameplay in a match seems pretty slow at first, but toward the end of the game it gets very intense and fast-paced. Multiplayer matches usually last 30-50 minutes, unless you're in a very high-ranking league.

    Now for the champions. "Champion" is just another name for the playable characters you play as in matches. And one of the things I love about League is that they have the biggest, most massive, diverse roster of playable characters to choose from, and what's more, the developers are constantly adding more characters to the roster. As the developers have said before, whatever way you want to get things done, there is a champion out there to go with it. In fact, one of the funnest parts of playing League is just trying out new champions and seeing what awesome abilities they have at their disposal for you to use.

    There is a variety of other things I should cover in League, But I'll let you find that out when you start playing.

    So overall, League is an amazingly crafted, insanely fun and obsessive masterpiece of a MOBA game, which is currently the most played online game in the entire world and is also completely free to play.    … Expand

    I find that with League of Legends, Riot has cultivated one of the most unique spaces in gaming history—mostly for good reasons but also for some awful ones, and in the gaming museum of the future, League is sure to have its own wing.
