Are you tired of your same old school life? Are you searching for a new hobby to chill out? Here is a great solution that fascinated hundreds of thousands of people around the world. It is called “League of Legends’, the ultimate time-consuming game.

There are lots of students wasting their time because there are nothing to do. James C. (G11) said, “These days, I don’t know what to do. I just lay on the bed and close my eyes.” It is actually quite surprising to see students suffering from thinking what to do in their free time.

It is true that games are considered bad for children. However, games do have positive effects. Spruce house dorm staff Mr. Jin says, “Games help the person to socialize with others and release own stress. It is an inexpensive hobby and can learn more about computers.” Also, Rakhee M. in Momjunction website argued the positive effects of games. For example, sharpened hand-eye coordination and enhanced critical thinking capabilities are some of the positive effects.

League of Legends physically and mentally activates your brain, too. Nicholas O. (G10) argues, “Playing games increase my concentration skill and this is essential for academics.” Once you use the game in a wise way, it can improve your life quality and even your academics. Now let me explain the steps to get all these benefits.
