Little Legends

Little Legends

Little Legends are adorable, collectible companions that inhabit the board during your games in Legends of Runeterra. They are purely cosmetic and do not affect gameplay, but they add a significant amount of personality and flair to your gaming experience.

Introduced as part of the Hextech Crafting system, Little Legends are a way for players to personalize their game board and express themselves. Each Little Legend has a unique des and animation, and they react to various in-game events, such as combat, spell casting, and even your opponent's actions.

Obtaining Little Legends:

Little Legends are primarily acquired through Hextech Chests and the in-game shop:

• Hextech Chests: These chests, earned through gameplay, daily quests, and events, have a chance to contain a random Little Legend.
• Themed Chests: Riot Games occasionally releases themed chests that guarantee a Little Legend from a specific set or region.
• Direct Purchase: You can also purchase specific Little Legends directly from the in-game shop using real money or sometimes through special bundles.
• Event Rewards: Certain in-game events may offer Little Legends as rewards for completing specific challenges.

Rarity and Variants:

Little Legends come in different rarities, with common ones being more readily available and rarer ones being more sought after. Furthermore, many Little Legends have multiple 'variants' or 'star levels'. These variants offer different color schemes, animations, or even slight visual modifications to the base Little Legend, allowing for even greater customization.

Interacting with Little Legends:

Once you have a Little Legend equipped, they will appear on your side of the board during matches. They have a range of animations:

• Idle Animations: They will perform subtle animations when nothing is happening.
• Combat Animations: They react to attacks and blocks, often cheering or reacting to the outcome.
• Spell Animations: They might react to spells being cast, both by you and your opponent.
• Victory/Defeat Animations: They have unique animations for when you win or lose a game.

Equipping and Changing Little Legends:

You can equip and change your active Little Legend through the 'Collection' tab in the game's main menu. From there, you can select your preferred Little Legend and any unlocked variants to be displayed during your games. You can have different Little Legends equipped for different decks or just switch them out based on your mood.

Little Legends and Hextech Crafting:

Little Legends are a key component of the Hextech Crafting system, alongside emotes and card backs. While they don't offer any gameplay advantage, they are a significant part of the game's cosmetic appeal and a popular way for players to personalize their experience.

Collecting and showcasing your favorite Little Legends is a fun and rewarding aspect of the Legends of Runeterra experience, allowing you to bring a piece of your personality to the battlefield.
