League of Legends documentary looks at the lives of five players

One thing is for sure: Online gaming wouldn’t exist without the passionate communities behind them. A new documentary called Live / Play looks at how League of Legends has impacted five players from around the world, including a cosplayer, a professional e-sports champion, and an aspiring game designer.

“It’s such a liberating feeling knowing that there are others out there like you,” one player says. “Millions of people like this thing too. Even though we don’t speak the same language and we grew up differently, we have something to talk about.”
