Okay, so I’ve been digging into this whole “League of Legends champion releases” thing, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I mean, I just wanted to see when certain characters dropped into the game, but it turned into a whole project.
First off, I started by just looking around the web, trying to find a simple list. You know, like “Champion X released on Date Y.” But nope, it wasn’t that easy. I found a bunch of different sites, forums, and what not, all with bits and pieces of the info I needed. Some said there were 169 champions, some said a new one named “Ambessa” was coming, it was a mess.

Then, I went straight to the source—the official League of Legends site and their store. I figured they’d have the most up-to-date stuff. And yeah, they did have a list of all the champions, but not in a release-date order. So, I started jotting them down, one by one, trying to make sense of it all. It was like doing a jigsaw puzzle without all the pieces.
My Notes
- Total Champs: I counted 169, just like some of those websites said. Seemed right.
- New Kid on the Block: This “Ambessa” character kept popping up. Apparently, she’s the newest, supposed to drop on November 6, 2024, something about “Arcane Season 2.”
- The 100th: This guy Jayce, he was the 100th champ released. Not sure when that was, but it seemed important. Had to write that down.
- 2025 Hype: I saw something about Season 1 of 2025 starting on January 9th. Maybe that’s related to new characters? I don’t know, just thought I’d note it.
So, after hours of clicking, reading, and scribbling notes, I finally pieced together a rough timeline. It’s not perfect, and I’m sure there are errors, but it’s something. I was starting to think about all the work that was going into this game’s production, all the characters, all the updates… It’s crazy! I have more respect for game developers now.
Honestly, this whole thing turned out to be way more involved than I thought it would be. But hey, at least I learned something new. And I got a newfound appreciation for how much work goes into keeping a game like League of Legends fresh and exciting. I might just keep digging into this. Who knows what other secrets I’ll uncover?
