How is League of Legends played?

Like other MOBA, in League of Legends (LoL) the goal is the destruction of the enemy team’s core building, the Nexus. Before the game, players are divided into teams of five. They now need to intelligently select and control a character. In the game, a total of five different classes are available, which can be deployed on different lanes.

The map is divided up so that both teams have equal access to the paths or “lanes”, and no team has an advantage. On three lanes and an enormous forest, teams try to gain the upper hand. Each player choses one of the 136 different heroes and takes on the chosen role.

On the so called “lanes” stand a total of three turrets that make life difficult, and impede access to the Nexus. Opposing heroes also occupy the lanes and try to penetrate towards your Nexus. To make the game more exciting, computer controlled creatures (creeps) appear on the lanes. Killing them earns a reward, but it is important that the hero has the last blow, or “last hitting” or no gold is earned, with which one can earn experience points, which makes one stronger. The last hitting is the most difficult, but most important.

After you have destroyed three enemy turrets with the help of the creeps, an inhibitor is waiting for you. After the destruction of the inhibitor, your computer controlled entities (minions) grow stronger again (respawn) and attack harder.

Now only two further turrets separate you from the Nexus, which need to be destroyed. Team work is needed to attain a victory deep in enemy territory. This is exactly the characteristic which makes eSport so exciting – being able to work as a team!

General Introduction to betting on League of Legends

League of Legends was one of the first games bookmakers offered for eSport betting. In comparison to other eSport games, League of Legends, after Counter Strike has the most number of tournaments. Above all, the weekly Leagues offer an opportunity every weekend for you to invest your knowledge in appropriate betting.

Generally, we must say that League of Legends tournaments are always offered by bookmakers and that there are no “smaller” tournaments. The only exception are the lower graded Challenger Series, which are only offered by dedicated eSport bookmakers. In a football comparison, the Challenger Series can be likened to the second national League.
