IDKurir.web.id – Can the presence of League of Legends or commonly called LoL Wild Rift beat Mobile Legends in Indonesia? We analyze here.
The release of the latest game, League of Legends Wild Rift, has indeed captured a lot of public attention, especially MOBA game activists such as Mobile Legends. The presence of this game also seems to be a new breath, especially for MOBA elites who are anti-Mobile Legends because it is known to be dotted with 8-bit graphics.
Unlike the Battle Royale game competition between PUBG Mobile and Free Fire, which can be fairly stable, MOBA game competition in Indonesia is indeed unhealthy. Moonton’s monopoly of MOBA games for 3 whole years is a very big achievement.
Mobile Legends and Achievements
During this time, Mobile Legends has always held the top position in the Popular Free Games category on the Google Play Store and the number two position for the Popular Best Selling Game category after Free Fire.
Of course, this is a very fantastic achievement considering that since 2022, many Youtubers or game analysts have predicted that Mobile Legends is a seasonal game that will sink over time, for example, like Among Us. But all of that is completely refuted.

Not without competition, in fact several MOBA genre games have tried their luck to beat the popularity of Mobile Legends in Indonesia, namely Arena of Valor, Vainglory, Marvel Super War, Onmyoji Arena, Heroes Evolved and many others.
But everything only ends in defeat and ends up being a dead game. How could that happen?
Mobile Legends Has the Largest Game Community in Indonesia
Unlike most MOBA games, the Mobile Legends community in Indonesia is very large. Almost in all corners of the village, they know that they have even held small tournaments to enliven their village.
The love of Indonesian gamers is proven by the breaking of the peak views of esports matches around the world in 2022, of which Mobile Legends holds the first position with the MPL Indonesia S6 event with a total peak view of 2.9 million for the RRQ match against Alter Ego. Then in second place is the LoL World Championship 2022 with 1.7 million peak views.

Then what about the fate of LoL Wild Rift in Indonesia?
Unlike the previous MOBA which was released empty-handed. LoL: Wild Rift arguably has a big name around the world with a number of veteran players in Indonesia.
Armed with a fairly large LoL community coupled with tens of thousands of elitist players, I think it’s still not enough to compete with the Mobile Legends community in Indonesia.

Interesting Facts
Most of Lemon’s fans are RRQ fans and most Mobile Legends players are also Lemon fans. Lemon is Mobile Legends and Mobile Legends is Lemon.
Lemon’s presence in various major Mobile Legends Indonesia tournaments is not only an achievement for RRQ but also Moonton’s achievement. How a game creates a main actor who has a lot of fans is a success for the game.
