Riot GamesIs there any way to play these champions for free?
While so many characters may seem daunting, League of Legends does give you a way to play (or try) some champions for free every week.
Every Tuesday, LoL brings a free champion rotation where you can play 16 free champions at no extra cost. You must remember that the characters featured in these rotations are entirely random and changes every week. Here are the characters that are featured in the free rotation this week.
Also, you won’t be able to use them in Ranked matches and are limited to Unranked matches only. The free rotation gives you a chance to test different characters and then decide whether you want to buy them in-game or not, considering the number of champions is huge.
So, there you have it – that’s everything you need to know on how many champions are there in League of Legends. For more about the game, be sure to check our other LoL tips and guides:
