__** League of Legends **__ League of legends is a free to play mmo (massively multiplayer online game). This game developed by Riot games and was developed in October 27th 2007 and is also the designer of the first game that has now evolved to League of Legends. Defence of the Ancients was a popular map in Warcraft 3 it is a 5 versus 5 game. There are 99 Heroes or Champions right now that are controlled by the player they are put into lanes, top, middle and bottom there are also “neutral” that spawn in between that are killable by either team. The game is played by having each team spawn on either sides of the map (top right and bottom left). They then buy items at the “shop” enhancing their power. The minions spawn periodically. There are two ways to win a game, by destroying the nexus which is in the heart of base or the team surrenders (giving up). This is done by destroying towers that are placed along the “lane” pushing the lane to the inhibitor which is near the end of the third tower, nexus and eventually destroying it.

Summoners who are the players in the game, gain “influence points” and “experience points” to level up their summoners. This lets them keep track of their statistics. Summoners that level up with enough “experience points” will gain a mastery points and a rune unlock. Summoners with a higher level mean that they have a higher skill level with more experience putting them in games with other equally skilled players.

Masteries and runes are used to enhance the power of your champion or hero. Masteries are skill trees which are split into offence, defence and utility each giving their own little perks. Runes are not that customisable with only a limited number of slots that the runes can go into and a high cost.
