    This game is very simple, yet very fun. You're not gonna rage at getting crushed in 4 man FFA's because of just how absolutely crazy the game gets, and it's incredible with friends, especially in a call with skype or discord.

    However, the random matchmaking is down right terrible and KILLS the game sometimes. Like with Smash Bros, you can play against bots or other players and    This game is very simple, yet very fun.

    Like with Smash Bros, you can play against bots or other players and friends. Playing with friends is nice as you can form a party and let the chaos unfold, but the match making for random people an be brutally long and sometimes impossibly laggy. I've had several matches where I wait for up to FIVE MINUTES for a game, and their ping is above 200. Some games are so laggy the game can't even start.

    This is a great game, but I wouldn't expect reliable online play without friends who have a stable connection.    … Expand

    Lethal League seems a fun idea, that could have been very nice for multiplayer. But for me unfortunately it was a disappointing experience.

    I'm not in any way to say that the game is bad. After having tested all the available characters and choosing one that suits me the most, I was ready to multiplayer. But unfortunately I had long waiting times to meet opponent and on my 2 hours of    Lethal League seems a fun idea, that could have been very nice for multiplayer. But for me unfortunately it was a disappointing experience.

    I'm not in any way to say that the game is bad. After having tested all the available characters and choosing one that suits me the most, I was ready to multiplayer. But unfortunately I had long waiting times to meet opponent and on my 2 hours of gameplay I was only able to play a couple of matches. And that, for me, was disappointing.

    The game is good graphically, a very colorful "cartoonish" style, and with a soundtrack fast, powerful and cool, perfect for the game.

    My positive recommendation for the game should be to the potential that I see and not from my personal experience. So I suggest you give it a try and see if you enjoyed it.    … Expand

    Lethal League is a lean, intricately detailed fighting game designed for everyone in 2014, and what’s more, it’s a smashing good time.

    You can't go wrong with Lethal League, a perfect mix of baseball and dodge-ball. Everything in the game is almost perfect, starting from its netcode, powered by GGPO middleware. You'll get tons of fun, with this addictive arcade style game. Windjammers' spirit is alive and kickin'!

    With more fine-tuning and content, Lethal League could have been a home run. Sadly, it balks the opportunity.
