Now that there is no longer a League of Legends, will the name of the game be changed?

I honestly doubt that it will, but the idea for newcomers that the name of the game is something that no longer exists is a bit worrying to me.

My personal thought was that Riot would keep the name, but have league become something more of a pool of the newly dubbed Legends rather than champions. The idea of champions is also going to be out-dated. Now that there are no more summoners, there is no reason for the characters in the game to be called champions, because a champion is generally one who fights for their owner or controller.

Thoughts?

Runeterra Punchmen.

Please rename the game "Runeterra Punchmen". I have money riding on this.

I, too, now have money riding on this. Can you imagine? A two million dollar prize pool for a game called "Runeterra Punchmen?" It'd be like naming one of the Prime Evils of Diablo "Squishypuppy," and it's bleeding hilarious to think about.

You sexist bastard....

Clearly the name should be... "Runeterra Things"

Many are not men... a lot are not people... Most don't even punch....

My backup name was "Big Fight In Jungle And Turrets And 2 Bases" but it felt too long.

"Runeterra Awesome Ones" is more befitting the new direction of simplified "cool champion's lores" while still retaining your suggested politically correctness. I vote for this!

I still can't believe that they went the easy way of "just blow up everything and start another thing without what defines our playerbase as participants in this Story"...

a champion is generally one who fights for their owner or controller.

while that is indeed one meaning of the word champion, i think the majority of people associate champion with this meaning:

someone or something (such as a team or an animal) that has won a contest or competition especially in sports

Maybe, Some People Arguing Violently Arena? Yeah, SPAVA. I like that.

Runeterran wars. War over Valoran. Wars of Legends. Void over Valoran (I like this one, VoV).
