League of Legends accounts

Riot’s rule and the real risk

Let’s be clear: Riot Games’ terms of service don’t allow buying and selling accounts, and accounts that are detected can be permanently suspended. No seller can remove this risk; be careful with any listing that says “guaranteed”. Make your decision knowing this.

In practice, these habits reduce the risk:

• Handover with the original email. If the email stays with the seller, the account can be taken back at any time. This is a separate problem from the ban risk, and it happens far more often.
• Right after the handover, change the email and account passwords and turn on two-step verification.
• Region. In LoL, an official region transfer is possible and is paid for with RP; it’s a one-way move. Still, buying an account registered in the region you’ll play in is both cheaper and hassle-free.

What to check in the listing

• Region: TR, EUW and EUNE are not the same. If you’re going to play with friends, choose the same region.
• Champion and skin inventory: the field that affects the price most. The listing description should say which skins the account has.
• Rank and season: rank is seasonal; the listing should say which season it’s from.
• Penalty history: chat restrictions, temporary suspensions and ranked queue restrictions leave a mark on the account. Ask the seller.

Frequently asked questions

Is buying a LoL account against the rules?

Riot Games’ terms of service don’t allow account transfers, and if detected the account can be permanently suspended. This is the game developer’s rule; no marketplace can change it.

Can I transfer the account to another region?

Yes, in LoL an official region transfer is possible and is paid for with RP. But it’s a one-way move; buying an account in the region you’ll play in is the cheaper option.

How can I tell if the account has penalties?

During the handover, log in to the account and check its penalty history and any ranked queue restriction. Do this before you confirm delivery; after you confirm, a dispute becomes harder.

What should I do first after buying the account?

Change the email password, then the Riot account password, and turn on two-step verification.
