This is the perfect way to turn those frustrating deaths, glorious victories, and questionable team fights into a shared experience.

What You'll Need 🛠️

To queue up for this challenge, you'll need:

League of Legends: And a client that isn't bugged (good luck).
Players: Ideal for a 5-person premade, but adaptable for any group size.
Drinks: Your "potion" of choice for the match.
Voice Chat: Absolutely essential for coordinating plays and sharing in the collective groans.

Getting Set Up ⚙️

Assemble Your Team: Get everyone into a lobby. We highly recommend playing ARAM or Normal Draft—leave the ranked anxiety behind!
Potions Ready: Make sure everyone has their drink and understands the rules before you hit that "Find Match" button.
Lock In Your Champs: Pick your champions and prepare for battle.
Don't Tilt (and Drink Responsibly): The goal is to have fun. Remember, it's just a game!

The Dojo's Take 🍻

The League of Legends Drinking Game is the ultimate way to combat tilt. It transforms the most frustrating parts of the game—getting outplayed, missing objectives, questionable teammates—into moments of shared comedy. It's best enjoyed with a full team of friends on Discord, where every death is met not with sighs of frustration, but with the clinking of glasses.
