    Special Report EVOLUTION OF MOBILE ESPORTS FOR THE MASS MARKET nikopartners.com Special Report: Evolution of Mobile Esports for the Mass Market Overview Esports, and the increase in mobile device usage globally, will be the primary drivers for growth in the digital games industry over the next 5 years.

  • Lag of Legends: the Effects of Latency on League of Legends Champion Abilities
    Lag of Legends: The Effects of Latency on League of Legends Champion Abilities An Interactive Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By Khoi Duc Doan Duc Chi Hoang Linh Thai Hoang Submitted to Professor Mark Claypool Worcester Polytechnic Institute Abstract This paper describes the effect of latency on the performance in League of Legends. We ran some pilot tests to determine that the best metric for a player’s performance in League of Legends is ability hit chance. We then created a calculation method for the deadline and precision of an ability of a champion in League of Legends. Deadline is calculated as the time it takes to finish an ability; precision is calculated using the area of effect of an ability over the screen size. We ran a user study for a few chosen abilities to measure the performance of a player at different levels of latencies. We then analysed the performance data collected from the user study to find out a correlation between an ability precision and deadline characteristics and the effect from latency to the ability hit chance. Our results suggest that deadline has more impacts on performance than precision. From the results, we also formulated a function of decision and deadline which has an exponential decay relationship with the effect on the ability to hit from latency. 1 Lag of Legends: The Effects of Latency on League of Legends Champion Abilities 0 Abstract 1 1 Introduction 3
