    • Part of the fun in League is the concept of 'carrying' and being able to get leads on your opponents, as well as customizing your champions. Both features are reduced in HotS, less significant leads are possible (especially getting ahead of your own teammates), and less customization is possible without items.

League of Legend For Linux?

Comment by hazrpg
about League of Legends · Aug 2011 · Helpful Not helpful Report as spam

Hmm, this is interesting... since I don't see any mention of Linux anywhere on the website (nor is there a download for such). I understand that you can run League of Legend via Wine - however I have been unable to do this myself, but I'm sure others have.

I guess my real question is, should this be edited, since League of Legends isn't Linux (native) supported? Just wondering, since I'm not sure as to what the full guidelines are for listings.

Our general policy is to only add the WINE tag to applications that has official support for WINE stated bu the author of the app.

hazrpg · Aug 2011

I thought that might be the case. Thanks for your reply :). I'll go ahead and edit this, since League of Legends isn't officially supported.

I added in the description a link to a tutorial for the installation with WINE :)
