League of Legends Missions are in-game objectives that reward players for completing specific challenges. Here's a comprehensive guide:

Mission Types:

  1. Regular Missions
  • Daily missions (First Win of the Day)
  • Event-specific missions
  • Champion-specific missions
  • New account missions
  1. Event Missions
  • Tied to special events (e.g., Lunar Revel, World Championship)
  • Usually offer exclusive rewards and tokens
  • Time-limited availability

Core Mission Principles:

  1. Gameplay Integrity
  • Missions don't encourage trolling or sub-optimal play
  • Focus on achievements that align with normal gameplay objectives
  1. Skill vs. Patience
  • Challenges test player skill rather than grinding
  • Progress achievable through normal gameplay
  1. Balanced Rewards
  • Standard rewards (tokens, Blue Essence, icons)
  • Commitment rewards (special icons, emotes, borders)
  • Skill rewards (exclusive items for difficult challenges)

Mission Requirements:

  • Winning games
  • Getting kills/assists
  • Completing objectives (dragons, towers)
  • Playing specific champions or roles
  • Team accomplishments

Best Practices:

  • Missions focus on Summoner's Rift or are map-agnostic
  • Multiple completion paths available
  • Progress tracked across multiple games
  • Team-oriented objectives
  • Win bonuses rather than win requirements

Mission rewards typically include:

  • Blue Essence
  • Tokens for event shops
  • Summoner icons
