League of Legends has 173 champions as of patch 26.21. Every one is free to unlock with Blue Essence, which you earn just by playing, so there is no pay-to-win roster. The newest is Locke, a Demacian demon hunter released in June 2026 – Riot's only new champion this year.

Each card below shows the champion's class, the position they're usually played in and their home region in Runeterra. Champions marked Runeterra don't belong to one region – Darkin, Aspects, wanderers and the like.

The newest champions

Locke (2026)The Ashen Exorcist, a Demacian AP assassin for mid lane. Released in patch 26.13 – the only new champion of 2026.
Zaahen (2025)The Unsundered, a Darkin top laner with healing and a revive. Released in patch 25.23.
Yunara (2025)The Unbroken Faith, an Ionian marksman for bot lane. Released in July 2025.
Mel (2025)The Soul's Reflection, a Noxian mage from Arcane. Released in January 2025.

The seven classes

Riot sorts every champion into one of seven classes, each with two or three subclasses. The class tells you roughly how a champion plays.

ControllerEnchanters and catchers. They shield, heal and lock enemies down – many supports.
FighterJuggernauts and divers. Durable melee damage for top lane and the jungle.
MageBurst, battlemages and artillery. Ability damage from range, mostly mid lane.
MarksmanRanged basic-attack damage that grows huge late in the game. The bot lane carries.
SlayerAssassins and skirmishers. Mobile, hard-hitting champions that hunt key targets.
TankVanguards and wardens. They start fights and soak damage for the team.
SpecialistUnique kits that fit no other box – Teemo, Singed, Azir, Heimerdinger and more.

All champions at a glance

The table is sorted A–Z. "Position" is where a champion is most commonly played – many can flex into other roles, and balance changes every patch. Releases run from the 2009 launch roster up to 2026.
