Summoner's Rift – League of Legends
- What we remember it for? Brilliant design that makes this map incessantly interesting. Even after hundreds of hours.
- Why is it worth revisiting? To... relax. Or quite the opposite! Anyway, it's always worth coming back to LoL, even for a single match.
- Nostalgia meter: 7/10
You don't need to be particularly interested in games to know about League of Legends. This game is just so popular. Apart from Defense of the Ancients (more commonly known as DotA), it's one of the precursors of the entire MOBA genre.
The same is true of Summoner's Rift – a map that's almost synonymous with LoL and thus, the entire genre. This is where most of the clashes take place. The reason is simple: like CS' Dust, this is one of the best-designed multiplayer maps.
This great design translates into huge popularity. Thus, many people spend hundreds of hours on this single map. It just doesn't get boring. As a result, you can get to know it better than your own pocket. If only the community were less toxic! Luckily, you can mute the chat.
