Can't recommend this game. Since it's free to play, the community has no barrier to entry, and there is an overwhelming amount of toxicity. This actually isn't entirely the player base's fault, as the game design traps you in a 30-40+ minute match with 4 other players that aren't in any way matched to your skill level, and is overall a very frustrating design. The game can be very fun at times, particularly when played with friends, but over the years the developer Riot Games continues to focus more on monetization and swapping the flavor of the month to match new skins, rather than maintaining consistent performance of the game client and game balance. On top of all of this, they are extremely strict about restricting or banning players for their conduct in chat, but do almost nothing to ban or punish the players that actively troll, intentionally grief matches, or otherwise find ways to ruin the game for other players. Therefore, you end up with a team game where the literal best strategy in solo queue is to ***mute every person in the game***. The only reason this doesn't get a 1-star review from me is due to the fact that the game itself does have fun mechanics and interesting characters, but if you are not already invested in this game, do not start playing it. Skill floor is too high, Riot's balancing team does not care to balance things, death timers are too short, the killing spree bounty system discourages you from doing well and makes it next to impossible for a player not in the top 1% to carry even after years of experience (I have played the game on and off since beta). Overall 3/10, not a balanced competitive game, your attention and time is better spent elsewhere.
