Riot Games is excited to announce that it will soon launch the beta version of League of Legends in Greek, offering fully localized support on the EU Nordic and East server.
What will this new version offer?
Mundo king of online romance! He post great page on OKQueuepid, telling women what great catch Mundo is. Women disagree. Strongly. They send Mundo messages like “You frighten my child” and “I’ve got mace” and “Not if you were the last Mundo on Valoran.” Mundo is the last Mundo on Valoran! Why they hurt Mundo?!
Mundo stew on problem and decide that competition is too fierce. So he plan new skins and champions sale to cut down on competition: gather up all champions with OKQueuepid accounts, then sell them to you cheap. With them gone, women come flocking to Mundo, even if he smell like laboratory fire! Buy these champions, cash bags, and leave online dating wide open for Mundo!

Initially conceived to develop casting techniques, these public games have quickly grown into a prospering community of dedicated players, sporting their own unique culture, inside jokes and great League of Legends action.
Mundo sad. His “Ganking as Tool for Economic Prosperity” presentation go badly when board start giggling every time Mundo say “tool.” Then pretty woman in parking lot not give Mundo her number, even when valet pull up with new his fancy new SUV. It now clear that Mundo need new car that impress all pretty ladies. But hard top convertible option even more money than custom paint job.
You know what would cheer Mundo up? Mundo raise cash for car fund from money bags like you! So he throw new sale, give you skins and champions for cheap. You buy, you fill up Mundo’s bank account. Then happy days here again.

Keeping player information secure is very important to Riot. That's why we're sorry to share that hackers accessed some player account information.
Scope
After thorough and urgent investigation with help from independent security experts, we have determined:
- Hackers gained access to certain personal player data contained in certain EU West and EU Nordic & East databases ; as a security precaution, we're emailing all players on these platforms
- The most critical data accessed included email address, encrypted account password, summoner name, date of birth, and – for a small number of players – first and last name and encrypted security question and answer
- Absolutely no payment or billing information of any kind was included in the breach
Even though we store passwords in encrypted form only, our security investigation determined that more than half of the passwords were simple enough to be at risk of easy cracking.

At the end of April, we gave you the chance to cook up your tastiest creations for all the world to see in our Noxus Noms Creation Contest. As we stare sadly at our expanding belt lines and pick through the shattered remains of our diets, we’ve got to admit you’ve outdone yourselves! Choosing our winners took a lot of discipline – as well as many, many trips back for seconds – but someone had to do it. The gods of pudding and cupcakes demanded it! Now, without further ado, we present the scrumdidliumptious winners of the Noxus Noms Creation Contest!
We’re back for another Summoner Showcase, and this week centers on the bad, bold and beautiful women of League of Legends. Take a look at what your fellow summoners have conjured up!
Brolaf here, dudes and dudettes. Sorry to harsh your buzz, but my bros and I need your help. We threw this epic rager, and it kind of got out of hand. Ten people got arrested, the frat house burned down, and the hospital told us they weren’t sending over any ambulances anymore. My dad owns these car dealerships and I figured he’d pay for the damage, but he was like, “dude, your trust fund is so overdrawn.”
So we need some green quick. That’s why we’re offering up these skins and champions for sale. You picked, ‘em, so we figured you’d really want to buy ‘em. We also figured it’d be less lame than a car wash.
- Fiora is, like, totally hot… but when my frat bro told her that, she cut him into strudel. Not cool, Fiora. Not cool at all. Buy her for 487 RP.
- Nocturne really knows how to harsh the buzz with his Shroud of Darkness and Unspeakable Horror and heavy “I’ll swallow your soul” vibe. Get him out of our party space for 487 RP.
- Kog’Maw knows how to party, but the dude cannot keep things down: he just keeps hurling all over everything! Most bogus. Help him recover for 487 RP.
Draven, the Glorious Executioner, has rushed into the League of Legends. The consummate entertainer, this artist of death punishes opponents by raining down relentless blows from his vicious throwing axes. For his ultimate, Draven rolls out both his axes in a devastating global line attack before recalling them for another gruesome pass through the enemy team!
Welcome to the Draven Champion Spotlight, summoners! Draven is a ranged physical carry built around throwing and catching spinning axes. Through this gameplay, Draven can dish out tons of damage and dominate a game. For those interested in the flashiest of ranged carries, take a look at the Draven Champion Spotlight!
Corporate Mundo keeping busy, cash monkeys! He open email attachment in junk folder promising pictures of naked girls. Computer stop working after that. IT tell Mundo that it “infected with virus” and all files corrupted. Mundo then pound on laptop with cleaver to make work; IT tell Mundo he turned laptop into “10-pound paperweight.” Mundo gave laptop new job that better match its abilities! Mundo made of win!
To celebrate, Mundo bring new sale for you. Buy skins and champions, and give Mundo money to continue “Computer Retasking/Cleaver Whacking” program at work. Soon, all computers do their job or get downsized to paperweight department!
- Viktor look like he really good at smashing computers. He redundant. Mundo let you have him for 487 RP.
- Skarner shoot crystal energy, fry computers’ motherboard. Mundo love his mother, and her board, so he get rid of Skarner. 487 RP and he yours.
