Easier way to search for LoL heroes when selecting and banning characters

League of Legends

The player found a way to search for characters easily and quickly in LoL.


There are currently 159 characters in League of Legends. As a result, it can be time-consuming to find the perfect match for your composition or ban.

However, this can be done faster and in most cases only with the left hand. Thanks to this, the rights will still be on the mouse and will allow you to immediately mark and choose the hero.

Searching for champions with one hand

Each year, several new characters are added to the League. At the moment, there are already 159 of them, and soon another one, Empress of the Void, will be available. However, the time to ban and choose a champion is still the same – 30 seconds. It is often difficult to decide what will be good in a given composition or against champions picked by an opponent. Then there is really little time to find a candidate.

However, a Reddit user with the nickname Kid_Radd1 found a solution. Using the script, they searched for the shortest letter combinations that would show one character and can only be entered with the left hand (with a few exceptions). Here is the complete list of 159 characters:
