What is League of Legends?
League of Legends (LoL) is a multiplayer online battle arena computer game.
How to Play:
Rules Set by Devs
Each team has a Nexus, which is defended by 11 towers in total. The first team to destroy their opponent's Nexus wins.
Minions will begin to spawn at 1:30, and again every 30 seconds. Both team's minions collide in the middle of the lanes.
Gold is earned by destroying towers, killing minions, and defeating other players.
From this set of rules, players have established an extremely specific meta-game.
How To Play: The Meta
Current Meta:
Top Laner: Bruiser, duelist.
Mid Laner: Assassin, tasked with eliminated high priority targets.
Attack Damage Carry: Heavily gold dependent, single target damage.
Support: Minimally gold dependent. Crowd control, vision.
Jungler: Tank with crowd control and ability to initiate fights.
Vital in team cooperation.
