    New game from Riot Games, which are computer game company. It seems to be really well made and has received very positive reviews.

    Expected price for Ireland is E75 + E5 shipping.

    Game is using programming mechanic for cooperative play, which is not most appealing mechanic, on other hand seem to be well made. It is marketed to LoL players and I think first prints would be 15.000 copies each. It could be successful in converting many computer gamers to boardgames. On other hand programming mechanic is not that popular, I own zero games using it currently.

    Sounds intriguing and pretty good value considering the sheer amount of minis in the box! Definitely one I'd like to try.

    Yeah ,it got a bit crazy last night with 15000 copies been sold out in a few hours.But Despite the site problems I managed to get a copy that's already on the way.
    The good news is that riot games have said there will be a copy for whoever wants one ,with the next shipment due in December.
