As promised last January, the free-to-play multiplayer action-RTS game League of Legends has now launched a new gameplay mode that allows online players to team up against AI bots. The game's official message board have posted a new FAQ that goes into more detail about this new gameplay mode which is designed to help new players get accustomed to online matches against real opponents along with experienced players who want to test out new champions.
