This week I played League of legends, a multiplayer online battle arena game (MOBA) in which players enter a battlefield with two warring teams. Each team spawns minions that automatically advance into three lanes of battle. The goal of the game is to push these lanes, destroying the opponent’s towers and base structures. The team that destroys the opponent’s nexus is the winner. The players in the game spawn as champions, each with the ability to level up and learn spells. It is crucial to the game to level and upgrade these heroes, battle the opposing team. With five players on each team, League of Legends is a game with multiple player interaction. Communication with the other team members is paramount to the success of the game. There are 69 champions in the game, each has a unique set of abilities and requires a certain skill set to play. The Champion I played is called Teemo. He is a ranged, stealth, support. He plants poisonous mushrooms around the map, giving vision in the areas of the map. He can also set up ambushes and temporarily blind opponents, making them unable to fight back.
Playing League of legends, or any MOBA Is an interesting experience in team communication. The team has to work together to initiate successful attack maneuvers. If a team member falls behind, the entire team suffers. Players must agree on a strategy, most of which is team composition. With each champion’s spells countering each other, having the right champions can be the difference between a win and a loss.
I enjoyed playing League of legends, it was interesting learning about lane control and ganking. but it has a high barrier to entry. There are many champions and items to learn before players can enter more advanced games. There is a lot to learn, but the payoff is worth it.
