LoL: Free Champion Rotation This Week

The constant changes in League of Legends make the game quite confusing at times. The addition of champions each year makes the overview of 160 champs almost impossible. Thankfully, Riot introduced the weekly champion rotation, which allows players to test out the champions for free.

Riot Games loans out around 10% of playable champions for free each week. This keeps League of Legends interesting and gives players the opportunity to experiment. Once you hit level 11, you gain access to the free champion rotation. The free champion rotation switches up every single Monday, so be prepared to try some new stuff on Summoner's Rift weekly.

You want to know with whom you win every game this patch? Then take a look here!

Remember: You can only pick those champions in Normal Blind Pick or Draft Pick. If you want to take them to Ranked, you need to purchase them first!

League of Legends Free Champion Rotation: February 26 – March 3

These are the champions that are part of this week's free champion rotation:

Note: Champions with multiple viable positions are sorted by most played position in recent patches.

Who is the best top laner in this free champion rotation? This time, we recommend you to pick Ornn! Ornn is the one and only tank that actually scales into the late game. With his ability to upgrade items with his passive, he can give his allies access to more powerful stats. Ornn also got tons of cool combos and tricks, so make sure to try him out!

In the jungle this week, you should give Nocturne a try! He is a unique assassin, who can engage from an extremely far distance with his R. Every ADC running around alone will be deleted by you when you play this guy ... or creature?

As a mid lane pick, we can recommend Akali to you this week. She might require a bit of practice, but she's a quick and dashy AP assassin that turns into a nightmare for every mid-lane opponent.

For you ADC Mains, we would recommend Tristana! With the right engage supp on your right and some cheesy early kills, Tris can carry any game. Not only that, but her Sticky Bomb [E] lets you destroy enemy turrets very fast, giving you an advantage, especially early on if you manage to get some platings.

Finally, let's move on to the support role. In this week's champion rotation, you should give Maokai a shot. Despite some nerfs, he remains the strongest supp in the game due to his simple but very effective kit and his synergy with the new supp item Trailblazer. Try him out before he gets another hit by the nerf hammer!

So, that's it, guys. Try out a few of these unique champions from this champion rotation, and maybe you'll find your new main? Who knows. We'll be back next week to see who you can try in the next free champion rotation!
