Women in LoL are frequently presented as powerful and confident. While not explicitly displaying feminist views, the portrayal of feminine characters is undoubtedly equal to that of their male counterparts. In game, there are over fifteen feminine characters, varying in age, personality, ethnicity, and heritage. This shows LoL's open view on women in video games, and don't conform to the conventions of bland and uninteresting women.
LoL has been criticised on portraying their female characters too scandalously, however while this is true in some cases, it is balanced through the wide range of women shown in a multitude of different personalities.
LoL has been given the rating T for Teen, in account for fantasy violence and blood. LoL's target audience is young adults (16 - 24), the largest video game consuming audience.
