About this game

A LEAGUE OF LEGENDS™ ROGUELITE ADVENTURE
Runeterra calls! Choose your champion and pick your path to power: a single-player roguelite romp through the world of League of Legends and Arcane, or a ranked card battler where strategy reigns supreme. Unlock and level up dozens of characters in a hand-crafted love letter to fans of hero collectors and card games alike.

THE STORY SO FAR
From the back alleys of Zaun to celestial Mt. Targon, forces small and large threaten to forever shift the balance of power—if not unravel the world itself! Star-forging dragon Aurelion Sol plots his cataclysmic revenge, while Lissandra, an even greater menace, lurks in the frozen north.

Only champions of Runeterra can follow the path that has been set—alone or as one—with YOU at the helm.

CHOOSE YOUR CHAMPION
Play as Jinx, Warwick, Caitlyn, Vi, Ambessa, or any of a growing cast of 65+ champions. The many legends of League are yours to collect, evolve, and master as you traverse the map of Runeterra.

Each champion brings unique, awe-inspiring powers and loyal followers to the fray. Whether you freeze your opponents where they stand (Ashe), plant fungal surprises for sneaky victories (Teemo), build an elaborate combo engine for a spectacular finish (Heimerdinger), no two champions play the same.

ADAPT & EVOLVE
Every run is a canvas for your creativity, offering new cards, powers, and relics to augment your strategy and topple menacing foes. But choose wisely! Challenges increase in difficulty over the course of a run, and from one World Adventure to the next.

Each champion can be upgraded with Star Powers—permanent augments you can unlock between runs. Completing a champion’s Constellation yields immense power—and all new strategies—for you to command.

TOPPLE MIGHTY FOES
Test your mettle against iconic villains in World Adventures and Weekly Nightmares that set the stage for your spectacular displays of strategy and skill.

Beating the odds against the likes of Lissandra and Aurelion Sol will take experimentation, ingenuity, and maybe a touch of luck. Of course, the tougher the opponent, the sweeter the victory—and the richer the rewards!

UNCOVER NEW LEGENDS
Delve into the deep lore and rich, ever-expanding universe treasured by players of League of Legends and fans of the Emmy-winning series Arcane. With exclusive characters, story-driven adventures, breathtaking card art, and a staggering cast of new and familiar faces, there’s no better way to experience the breadth and depth of Runeterra.

Ratings and reviews

Mechanics-wise it is really great. Unlike MTG and alongside Hearthstone, it uses spatial elements in its mechanics. I don't usually like this, but given the softly intricate set of rules (not as complex as MTG's) we can intuitively work with it in different ways. Finally, the reward system is more generous than the one of Hearthstone, although the Expedition mode should not require cash - but this is me. So, overall, it is a pretty good game.

Great game so far, possibly the best card game currently. Extremely free-to-play friendly, the rewards are constant and not minuscule. No gacha things going on, if you want to spend money, you get exactly what you paid for. The mechanics are interesting and original, the games have a fantastic back and forth style between the two players, making the games quite enjoyable.

After the introduction of the Path of Champions game mode I would honestly say this is the best available CCG up to date. With constant expansions, events and patches, Legends of Runeterra always managed to keep a fresh experience and introduce new mechanics, but it's only now that players can truly try all the game has to offer at their own leisure in a PvE experience that is not only fun, but also rewarding.
