Fixes for when a new LOL patch broke the game here

Please note that you are using this project on your own discretion, we don't hold any responsibility for any actions taken on you/on your account

Those who cannot start LOL after the 11.17 update check here: Update to newer wine-lol version

You can also refer to r/leagueoflinux for frequent updates regarding the game on linux

The Garena Client is almost exclusively intended for Asia (Includes south, south-east, east, etc). If you do not belong to the aforementioned regions (Like NA, EU, etc.), Please use the Riot Client instead (What Lutris ships by default)

This is the way I personally use to start LOL on Linux, through Lutris. The code for starting game without Lutris is still in the script though.

I know that the Lutris Garena works ootb right now, but it has problem for me, namely the client does not show after a game, so I still keep this around

Wine Dependency (Maybe redundant, but just to be sure nothing goes wrong)

sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-staging

sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
sudo dnf install lutris wine winetricks
sudo dnf groupinstall "C Development Tools and Libraries"
sudo dnf groupinstall "Development Tools"

Install Lutris, Garena, LOL

Install LOL from Garena

Open Garena from lutris and install LOL like you normally do on Windows.

Also, enable Disable proxy when browsing for better Garena experience (it sucks by default)

Garena setting

For ex: /home/nhubao/Games/garena/drive_c

Create a new folder there, name it as you wish. For my case, I befittingly named it "fuck u garena" image

The directory for the newly created folder should be something like the following example

/home/nhubao/Games/garena/drive_c/fuck u garena

Now, open the Garena Client via Lutris and change the installation directory for LoL

Garena Client --> League of Legends --> Wrench icon (in the bottom left of the page) --> Locate Game Files --> Change --> Locate the directory to the newly created folder

Now click Install and it should now start installing!

If for some reason the installation doesn't complete via the Garena Client, try the folllowing method:-

1) Head over to the download link of your region

If you wish to inform us about different language options, please raise an issue and we will add it!

2) Click on Game Download

It's the Ezreal image for other regions

3) Save the file and wait for it to install

4) Extract the folder into the directory where the game is supposed to be installed by Garena

For Ex: /home/nhubao/Games/garena-vn/drive_c/fuck u garena

5) Head over to Lutris, select the Garena client and under the options for Wine, select Run EXE inside Wine Prefix image

6) You will now be prompted by an installer which will extract all the game assets, click Next and the installation should begin

7) This is how it should look like now!
