Oh itâs on. After several monthsâ worth of pre-season play, Riot Games is ready to kick things into high gear with next weekâs launch of League of Legendsâ first official competition season, complete with ladders, ranked games, and draft mode.
Crecente and I were both extremely fond of Riot Gamesâ take on the Warcraft II Defense of the Ancients mod when it came out last October, but up until now itâs all been childâs play. On July 13 shit gets real for the free-to-play online game, with season one bringing tons of official tournaments to the gameâs more than three million players, along with three big in-game updates.

In draft mode, each team can choose to ban up to two of the gameâs selection of Champions, restricting either team from using them. Once the banning is finished, the team that banned second will get first draft pick, gaining exclusive use of the Champion for the match.
At the end of the season, a major tournament will be held to crown the season one champion. Then the whole thing starts all over again.
âThe Season One features and updates will greatly enhance League of Legends and help us towards our goal of having LOL being played by the worldâs top gamers in the biggest and best gaming leagues and tournaments,â said Marc Merrill, co-founder and President of Riot Games. âWe have been thrilled with the reception League of Legends has received from the players and we will continue to enhance and evolve the game to make it the best gaming experience possible. Season One is just one of many high-quality, free updates that our fans can expect to see in the months and years to come.â
Theyâre going to drag me back in again, I just know it.
