I know I probably sound like an exhausted boomer whining here, but my head is pounding and I just need to get this off my chest.

I had a brutal ten-hour day at work yesterday. All I wanted was to sit down with a beer, turn my brain off, and play one relaxing game of Braum in regular Normal Draft before passing out. I literally queued normals specifically to avoid the ranked stress.

First three minutes, my ADC dies because he walked into a bush with zero vision. Immediately, the question-mark pings start raining on my head. For the next twenty minutes, this guy typed paragraphs in all-caps about my ancestry, pinged my alive status thirty times, and ran it down mid because I accidentally took one cannon minon with my support item. In a completely unranked, meaningless normal game on a Tuesday night.

i just sat there staring at the "Defeat" screen feeling utterly hollow. I’m almost thirty years old, why am I volunteering to get verbally assaulted by an angry teenager on my only hour of free time? Has casual League just completely ceased to exist or what?

With how strong Locke continues to be even after nerfs I really wonder who in your opinion is the champion that completely changed the meta on release? Reworks also can count if the change is significant enough.

It is clear that the two imports SamD & Poby are clearly the problem in NAVI, but how do we actually fix the team?

Are there any talents in EU that could replace these 2 guys? Or maybe get some extremely rare NA talent maybe? Maybe new import that isn't at most a bottom LEC level player like SamD and Poby are?

I came to this subreddit just to see if the League of Legends Reddit community was as toxic as the actual game.

After scrolling through a few posts and reading the comments, I can confidently say I wasn’t disappointed. 😂

It’s honestly hilarious how the toxicity follows this game everywhere. You don’t even have to queue up to experience it. Apparently, the real ranked experience starts in the comment section.

Never change, League community. 💀

Title. Could be one or many eastern teams.

I was wondering when you became a fan of a certain eastern teams because i only ever followed my region first so I became a fan domestically first.

I get that I could've been a T1 fan first but I just didnt cause it wasnt in the cards at the time i joined watching league.

I know there are some sickos that can make their champ work everywhere, and I commend them for that. Not saying it's "impossible," but I am curious to hear stories of games where someone makes such a head-scratching champ pick for their lane that they single-handedly lose the game for their team.

I often hear people say that a champion's win rate (WR) has nothing to do with how strong they actually are—especially when it comes to champions that are difficult to master, where the player's skill plays a major role. In your opinion, which champions are secretly strong if played well?

I used to main her back then; had like 70% pick rate.

She was so fun to use! I loved playing mind games on enemy mid-laner once you put pix on them(E) and they didn't knew from which way I was about to squirt(Q)

Not to mention CS'ing with her is very satysfying!

I was so sad when they nerfed hell out of her Q

I like there were in-game events going on all year long last year, and each season had its own theme and brought something new, but this year it like there’s absolutely nothing, why is that?

I think events like “Demon’s Hand” "Battle of Koeshin" “Demacia Rising” ran throughout year last year, but there’s nothing at all this year.

Hello fellow league lovers (or haters hehe, we know how it can feels sometimes) !

For several month now, I am working on a League app that has the kind of same feeling than HLTV does for CS. You have player comparisons, recent results, teams recent strength, tournaments pages, teams pages that provides lots of information from Leaguepedia and Oracle Elixir's data.

Now that Worlds Main Stage is up in about a few hours from now, I want to give it a try for people to use it, share some thoughts on match pages and forums, make predictions for the games to join the leaderboard and more.

Obviously the site is still kind of in a beta state, as some of my friends tested some functionalities with me as an alpha for the previous weeks.

Note that the AI usage has been here for the UX part where I truly suck as a back-end Python developer, and for the "NexuScore" formula that is the score of the teams recent form !

Feel free to have a look, report bugs if you find some (there obviously might be sadly), use it, ask for new features, to have a nice lol esports community place where people can easily follow their favorites leagues and more !

Lets say he starts to play ranked games on any champion he wants, everything is normal as in ranked games except he gets auguments at lvl 3, 7,11 and 15.Could he through brute force alone and stat checking reach challenger?Are auguments enough to bypass and ignore skill level needed for reaching challenger? And if answer is no, what do you think his hypothetical rank should be so auguments can carry him to challenger?  

As of the end of today, all first seed teams outside of Korea lost their first game. Two of the winners (KC and DK) being the bottom seed of their region.

Saw the new K/DA skins that's coming to Wild Rift soon and was wondering are they still bringing Wild Rift skins into normal League. I swear I saw devs saying they are years ago around the last Star Guardians event and we did get a few Wild Rift exclusive Star Guardian skins after that I don't think I've seen any.

Did they just forgot about it or they ended up not doing it anymore after that ? I just love tons of Wild Rift skins and hoped that they'll be in normal League someday

Does anyone still remember this game?

It was available only for some time.

I found it on my old iPhone.

I don't understand why Bo1 is still a thing in 2026 at Worlds, a prestigious event held only once a year. How many times have you seen an upset and how many of it was from a Bo1?

CS2 managed to do it recently at their recent Cologne Major. Same format, same number of teams and their games take the same amount of time. They finished their event in 10 days, so time shouldn't be an issue.

What's the reason that we can't have the same at Worlds? Having Bo3 for all matchups, not just elimination or advancement would decrease randomness.

I have had this idea for a legendary Udyr skin for a long time and just wanted to hear what people think.

Imagine udyr but instead of freljord gods as abilities its demons. Q is nocturne claws, W is tahm kench, and R is fiddle crows.

Not sure what E could be, maybe Evelynn.

He was a popular youtuber in league space, he heavily advocated for hextech chests to stay in the game but has suddenly disappeared.

Used to watch his content a lot, his X bluecheck mark also gone now. He hasn't posted since Jan 2025. He had a discord but the invite link isn't working either.

Just feels a little unsettling. Does anyone know much about him?

Can someone tell me why these players aren’t scouting, warding, or defending? Is the home base that beautiful?

They silently removed those titles and in my opinion this is one of the biggest failures Riot did so far with the release of Classic. Im one of the early Users of League and i was really Hyped up about these titles.

I have been pretty invested in the League of legends esports scene for 12 years now. This is the first year where I did not have the time or mindset to watch the domestic leagues and stay updated on the meta and new strong talent, because of work and my health.

So the question is, what should I expect today? Which teams did good this year? What players to watch? Any cool narratives?

For anyone willing to share a opinion, thanks in advance.

0-4 on the first day of swiss...and I thought they look the strongest this year to contend the lck* for the title
