League of Legends
Now with the September month approaching, online action fans are eagerly waiting for the releases of League of legends, Riot Games, a game based on Warcraft III mod Defense of the Ancients and is meant to bring some changes in manners of playing and player’s points of view approaching. Some trials have been conducted in playing this game before its release and the novelty reveals to lay in the progress of the game which is mainly based on the player’s profile called the Summoner.

These champions are your icon-images to represent you in the battle and with every winning you get experience that will level you up those characters for that match of playing. Gathering new levels, enables you to obtain mastery points to be applied to one of the three categories: offense, defense and utility options. Each category provides the champions with a variety of bonuses, but meanwhile the character is not stuck with the mastery category selected as you can redistribute your points to your counter opponents that you are planning to go against.
Next to this mastery opportunity, you are able to gain influence points that are rendered by the total amount of playing time and your success obtained in the game. These points are good for the restoring of the runes which in their turn have bonuses that strengthen the champions. Runes are divided into 3 categories: Marks, Glyphs, and Seals with their statistic bonus per total. But you will meet also runes that can be more powerful if they are used on specific traits or statistics, thus making them be more powerful. This is not such a big inconvenient as long as you are allowed to expand the system in that you can create stronger runes with the ability of combining them. Depending on how dedicated you are to the game, you will receive unlimited runes.
Every session of your play previously includes a champion search and a glossary allowing indecisive players to select from different options, for instance flee, magic or melee and let the game automatically select a character that is based on the player’s keyword search. This menu displays information connected to the character and powers of the champion, this feature enabling the player to get a picture of what is there to do in a battle allowing the player the possibility to thoroughly prepare. In short League of Legends presents some additions to the previous mod Defense of the Ancient, these features arousing the players’ curiosity enough to determine them to plunge in the action of the game that is to be released in September.
