![]() ![]() gold scaling from First Strike, or long-term stacking of Dark Harvest), or they just ended up without much diversity (everyone in playtests took Conqueror and just stacked it immediately). Either you just couldn’t make use of them (e.g. Runes ended up being fairly uninteresting in Arena, so we cut them completely. ![]() You won’t be selecting Runes or Summoners. ![]() At the end of it all, the last team standing wins. You’ll be armed with powerful Augments that change the way your champ plays, buy items that you know and love (with a few old and a few totally new faces), and put on a show for the Soul Fighters that just want to make your match a little more interesting. You team up with a friend (or solo queue comrade) to fight other pairs in a series of 2v2 fights. So when it was time to start on a new game mode for League, we asked a question: What if there was a version of League that let you truly explore all those endless possibilities?Įnter Arena: a mashup of League and Teamfight Tactics, focused squarely on putting you into the action faster, forcing you to respond to huge power ups, and tempting you to try truly wacky nonsense. Summoner’s Rift is great, but it doesn’t support all avenues of creativity and skill expression. But currently, the main way you play with all these toys is on Summoner’s Rift in the context of a 5v5 competitive game.

Step 4: Run It Back - After your team is eliminated you can immediately leave and queue up again for retribution! But of course you won’t lose, you’re here to win the whole dang thing!

So watch out for errant Lux lasers and Shaco nonsense, because winning isn’t always as easy as it seems. The last team standing wins! Easy, right? Wrong! There are also some surprise Cameos from the Soul Fighters who want to shake things up a bit. In each combat phase you fight 2v2-if you win, you retain your overall team health, if you lose, you lose some health. You then enter the combat phase and fight your opponent. In buy phases you either get to choose an Augment, or you get gold to buy items. Step 3: Fight! - There are multiple rounds in each match of Arena, and each round has a buy and combat phase.Also there are no Runes or Summoner Spells! (More on this later.) You can face mirror matchups, but you can’t double up on your team. Step 2: Pick/Ban - Everyone gets a ban, and then you move into a Blind-style pick where you cannot see your enemies picks.Step 1: Queue Up - You can queue for Arena solo or with a duo comrade.But if you want to learn more about some of the decisions we made, read on! Arena: How To Play We’re going to include a TL DR at the top to tell you exactly how to jump into the game.
