Riot is trying to make LoL more accessible by adding WASD controls


Riot is adding WASD movement controls to League of Legends. This happens nearly 16 years after the game first launched.

It's adding the option to move around by using WASD controls instead of relying on a mouse to point and click, according to a video detailing the upcoming change. "Click to move just isn't the sort of control scheme they're used to, and it puts a lot of people off including many that we believe would otherwise really love the game." The devs say the feature will stay in beta so the team can "catch any bugs, unintended interactions and to ensure that your ranked games aren't disrupted by someone WASDing into walls."
