3. ONLINE GAMES
An online game is a video
game played over some
form of computer network.
This network is usually
the internet or equivalent
technology, but games
have always used
whatever technology was
current: modems before the
Internet, and hard
wired terminals before
modems.
4. By 2012, the statistics of online gamers worldwide
averaged 12 million per day, growing exponentially
over time. Even the US Government has recently
recognized it as an official “e-sports” in its own right.
5. League of Legends
On October 2009, Riot Games released League of Legends, a
free-to-play multi-player online battle video game. Often
dubbed LOL, the game has earned its rightful place in the
mainstream gaming arena.
6. What is League of Legends?
League of Legends is a fast-paced, competitive online
game that blends the speed and intensity of an RTS
with RPG elements. Two teams of powerful
champions, each with a unique design and playstyle,
battle head-to-head across multiple battlefields and
game modes. With an ever-expanding roster of
champions, frequent updates and a thriving
tournament scene, League of Legends offers endless
replayability for players of every skill level.
7. Getting Started on Summoner's Rift
A lot goes into a successful battle on the Field of
Justice. Here you'll learn about the basics of the
game, familiarize yourself with the basic mechanics
through the in-game tutorials, and take your first
steps onto Summoner's Rift.
Champions
The League is filled with champions of every archetype,
from devious masterminds to epic monsters and
everything in between. Different champions suit
different roles and strategies, so don't get
discouraged if the first one you try doesn't mesh
with your playstyle.
8. Controlling your champion
With a few caveats, champions use a traditional RTS
control scheme.
To move your champion, right click on the terrain
where you'd like to go
To attack an enemy, right click on your target
To cast a spell left-click the associated icon or use the
spell's hotkey (Q,W,E, or R by default), and then
click on the target.
Controls can be customized through the Options menu.
9. Lanes
There are three roads that connect your base to the
enemy's. These roads are called lanes, and they'll
serve as the means of engaging the enemy team. To
win a game you'll have to push down your lane into
the enemy base and destroy the nexus at the heart
of their base.
10. Minions
Minions are AI-controlled soldiers that spawn at the
nexus and march down each lane toward the enemy
base, attacking enemies they encounter along the
way. Scoring the killing blow on a minion earns
valuable gold for your champion. Minions prefer to
fight each other, but will attack your champion if
they find him alone in lane. They'll also switch
targets to focus on you if you attack a nearby allied
champion. Don't underestimate the power of a big
wave of minions, particularly early in the game!
11. Turrets
Turrets are powerful defensive structures that defend
each lane at even intervals, punishing enemies that
come within range with deadly bolts of energy. Like
minions, they prefer to attack targets other than
you, unless you engage another champion while
within range. A hostile turret will only target you if
you're attacking an enemy champion or if you're the
last target in range. Beware of picking a fight under
an enemy turret.
12. Inhibitors
Important structures known as inhibitors are located
where each lane meets the base on both sides of the
map. Destroying an inhibitor creates a powerful
super minion each time a new minion wave spawns
in that lane. Super minions are extremely durable,
making them ideal for leading the charge on the
enemy nexus. Inhibitors respawn after five minutes,
so be sure to press your advantage during this time.
Destroying all three of an enemy's inhibitors will cause
two super minions to spawn in each lane every time
a new minion wave is created.
13. The Nexus
At the heart of each base lies the nexus. Protected by
two turrets, the nexus is the structure that
periodically generates minion waves in each lane.
Once a team has destroyed the enemy nexus, the
game is over and that team is declared victorious.
14. Items
In a game of League of Legends, your champion earns gold by taking
down enemy units and structures. Scoring the killing blow on a minion
or champion, assisting in a champion kill, and acquiring certain runes
or items are just a few ways you can generate additional income. You
can use your gold to purchase powerful items from the shop near the
summoner platform. Just click on the shop or the button next to your
gold total to open the store.Items grant bonuses as soon as they're
purchased; there is no need to equip items
Different champions and play styles excel with different item builds, so
your strategy will inform your purchases
The most powerful items are made by combining smaller items, so don't
hesitate to buy a component item
Usable equipment such as potions, wards, and activatable items are used
by clicking on the icon in your inventory or by hotkey 1 - 6
15. The Jungle
Between the lanes lies the jungle, an expanse filled
with neutral monsters. These monsters won't attack
the enemy base, but they can be defeated for
additional gold and special temporary buffs. A player
may take on the role of jungler and use these areas
as his primary source of income. Junglers typically
roam between the lanes, coming to the aid of allies
in lane when needed.
17. Each player begins at opposing sides of a map near a
building called a Nexus. A match is won when either
team's Nexus is destroyed. To destroy a Nexus, each
team must work through a series of Turrets placed
along a path to each base referred to as a Lane.
18. Along the way, each player gains levels from killing the
opposing team's Champions and Minions (non-player
characters (NPCs) that regularly spawn and attack
the other team) and defeating neutral monsters.
Completing objectives rewards players
with gold which is used to purchase items, making
their Champion stronger.
19. Game modes
Tutorial mode is a set of two introductory games that
teach the basics. It is intended to help new players
learn important concepts, which might not otherwise
be obvious.
20. Custom mode
Custom mode allows players to create games that
players opt into rather than relying on matchmaking
to create the teams. In custom matches, the teams
can be uneven (for example, 3v4 or 2v5) and may
include a mix of players and bots, which are
computer-controlled champions.
21. Co-op vs. AI mode
Co-op vs. AI mode matches players against a team of
bots. Similar to the Tutorial mode, it is also intended
mainly as a way for inexperienced players to learn,
but it also used by more experienced players as a
way of experimenting with new ideas or getting an
easy First Win of the Day.
22. Ranked mode
Ranked mode is available to players that are level 30.
Ranked uses Draft Mode: the first player on each
team bans 3 champions from the game, and the two
teams cannot have an identical champion. In
addition, opposing Champion picks are visible before
the game begins. Second, ranked players are seeded
into a League system.
23. End of the Game
The players end the game by destroying the
base(nexus) of the enemy or the enemy choose to
surrender.
24. The players who demonstrates superior skill, dominates
The game and destroyed the enemy base(nexus) are
considered victors of the game.
25. On October 2009, Riot Games released League of Legends,
a free-to-play multi-player online battle video game. Often
dubbed LOL, the game has earned its rightful place in the
mainstream gaming arena.
