Wild Rift vs League of Legends: champions compared
Wild Rift has 142 champions (as of patch 7.3d) and League of Legends has 173 (Data Dragon 16.21.1). 141 champions are in both games and 32 League champions are not in Wild Rift yet. Of 138 champions we compared, 127 keep the same five ability names in both games.
The two games in numbers
- Wild Rift champions: 142
- League of Legends champions: 173
- In both games: 141
- League only: 32
- In Wild Rift but not in League's Data Dragon file: Norra
- Items in Nexus Lab data: Wild Rift 151, League 211
Are the kits the same?
We compared the five ability names (passive, Q, W, E, R) of every champion in both games: 127 of 138 match, and 11 have at least one different ability name (for example Fizz, Gwen, Jax, Karma, Olaf and Rammus). The same name does not mean the same numbers: Wild Rift has its own balance.
