Legends of Runeterra
Skilled Strategy Card Game
Pack up your spellbook! Runeterra is looking for a few good champions. Set in Riot Games’ League of Legends universe, Legends of Runeterra adds thrilling twists to card-collecting strategy.
How it plays: Summon allies from your hand, then order them to strike your enemy or block incoming attacks on your all-important Nexus. If that big gem gets destroyed, it’s game over!
Why we love it: Each round of this deep, gorgeous game plays out as a nail-biting tactical tug-of-war. Will you sacrifice noble warrior Garen to eliminate the fearsome Trifarian Shieldbreaker? Unleash a devastating Avalanche spell, or bank the mana to use later? Crafty counterattacks can change the course of battle in an instant.
Don’t miss: It’s tempting to hop in and play online opponents, but first, test your custom-built deck against the savvy offline AI to identify your weaknesses. Patch it up and get ready for battle!
