Totally! The Steam Deck runs on a Linux-based system but thanks to Proton—a compatibility layer that lets Windows games run on Linux—you can definitely play League of Legends on it. It might need a bit of tweaking to get everything smooth sailing, but it's doable.

Yes, but expect to jump through some hoops. League of Legends isn't a native Linux game, and the Steam Deck's primary OS is SteamOS (Linux-based). You'll have to use Proton or potentially install Windows on your Steam Deck to play it, but many users have managed to make it work. So, ready for some tech adventure?

I've been playing LoL on my Steam Deck with minimal issues! Just make sure to tweak the settings for optimal performance. And honestly, it's pretty amazing to have my favorite game on the go.

Nah, just get a PC. The Steam Deck is cool and all, but if you're hardcore into League, you might find the performance and setup hassle a bit of a letdown.
