If you have recently caught the League of Legends (LoL) bug, you must be looking forward to joining the competitive ranks, climbing the ladder, and experiencing how you stack up against players at the same skill level.
When you are a new player, you cannot jump directly into the LoL Ranked system. You need to start by reaching a level 30 League account. Although it may be frustrating at first, Riot wants to make sure that you truly understand the essence of the game.
Luckily, there are ways to get there a little faster. Let’s then check out how to level up fast in League of Legends and, consequently, unlock new possibilities and have more fun while playing.
How to level up fast in League of Legends?
Winning games
First of all, always aim to win matches and do your best. The more wins you have, the more experience you get, and the more motivation you have to play more.

Playing against Bots
There are two modes in League of Legends – Player vs. Player and Players vs. AI or bots. Playing against bots is much more relaxing as it is easier to win against them as compared to actual players.
Additionally, new players can use the relaxed gameplay to learn the basics of the game, try out different champions, and hone their skills for actual battles.
The only downside is that the XP you get against bots reduces after 180 Minutes of gameplay per day and with increasing player levels. This does not apply if you are under level 10.
Completing the first win of the Day
What is more, when you log in on a daily basis, you should complete the first win of the day mission. It becomes available when you reach level 15 and rewards you with 400 bonus experience once you win a matchmade game.
Purchasing experience boosts
Experience boosts temporarily increase the amount of experience you will get at the end of each match. You can purchase Duration or Win Boosts.
Both of them can be purchased at the Riot Store for Riot Points. Nevertheless, Duration Boosts provide you with double the base experience earned from a game, while Win Boosts add 210 experience on top of what you would get.
Apart from this, Duration Boosts last for a predefined period of time, while Win Boosts are applied when you have a win and expire once you’ve won a specific amount.
Getting on the attack
If you want to win games in the fastest way possible, it is also advisable to select an aggressive Champion that can have a serious in-game impact. Once you opt for the ADC, Mid Lane, or Jungle role, you can be sure that the Champion of your choice handles themselves and turns the outcome of every match in your favor.
Playing massively
Although it may seem obvious, you just need to play a lot to level up faster, and there is no other way around it.
Keep in mind, though, that if you have a lot of time to dive into the game, it is worthwhile to purchase a Boost to maximize your earned experience.
Teaming up
Last but not least, if you play loads of matches and record wins, you have better chances of meeting friends with similar skills. As a result, you can coordinate ganks, talk about strategy, and simply have more fun while playing.
Be on the Look out for new Missions
In League of Legends, missions are in-game challenges or objectives to encourage players to explore different aspects of the game. By completing these quests, you can earn additional XP and other rewards. Most missions are temporary with new ones popping up almost every day.
To get free XP head over to the quest menu. It will show you the active missions and their progress. Look for missions offering XP.
To maximize efficiency, try to complete multiple missions in a single game whenever possible. Coordinate with friends or teammates to align your missions, which can make completing them more efficient.
Summing up, reaching a level 30 League account or just leveling up in League of Legends is quite a lengthy process. Nevertheless, if you win matches, purchase experience boosts, get on the attack, play a lot, and share knowledge with other players, you can level up fast and have a lot of fun in the process.
