Sports in Runeterra?

Anonymous Alias··1 votes·499 views

I want to know what sports are played in Runeterra. What would be even better is if Riot released a champion based around one of the sports.

If sports aren't played in Runeterra then I will never read lore again.

Well, here's the thing: the League of Legends itself sort of IS the premier sport in the LoL universe. One that is used to entertain the masses as well as decide conflicts without there being any sort of mass bloodshed. As for additional sports in the LoL universe, that would be something that I would like to see Riot delve into. Perhaps they could make new game modes or maybe even a new game in relation to different types of sports in the world of Runeterra.

The League of Legends / Institute of War isn't canon anymore though.

Well if that's the case, how did League of Legends originate? There had to have been some sort of master mind behind it all. Lore wise anyway.

It didn't originate. The League of Legends doesn't exist. The game that we play does not reflect events that occur in Runeterra, not even loosely. Champions are only involved in their own personal stories, and the conflicts of their home factions, and are no longer political gladiators.

If we are talking about Bilgewater I think we have 3 main sports:

  1. Drunk yourself fastest and strongest
  2. Kick the ratshark the most distance.
  3. Some kind of boat race, I presume

And if we are talking about Shadow Islands the sport prob would be javelin throw (sorry it is Kalista joke)
