League of Legends
A multiplayer online battle arena
League of Legends is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game, in which the player controls a character ("champion") with a set of unique abilities from an isometric, or top-down, perspective. Over the course of a match, champions gain levels by accruing experience points (XP) through killing non-player enemies called minions. Items also increase the strength of champions, and are bought using gold earned by killing minions, or destroying enemy structures. In the main game mode, Summoner's Rift, items are purchased through a shop menu that is only available to players when their champion is in the team's base. Each match is discrete; levels and items do not transfer from one match to another.
