League of Legends: topping up RP and the new patch — what to know

Published: 2 min read

League of Legends keeps evolving: patch 26.13 has announced a new assassin champion with ability-power (AP) damage. New champions are a classic reason to come back, and a good moment to top up Riot Points (RP) to unlock the champion, skins or the battle pass.

What RP is and what it covers

RP is the in-game currency of League of Legends. It buys champions, skins, chests, XP boosts and the battle pass. The game does not sell progression or gameplay advantages for real money — RP goes to cosmetics and convenience, so you can top up calmly for a specific goal.

Card or balance top-up

Two formats appear on the storefront:

  • An RP top-up card — you get a code and activate it yourself. Handy when you want to do everything yourself. Examples: an RP card for EU and Riot Points West/NA.
  • A balance top-up — the seller adds the amount to your account. Example: a top-up for Russia.

The key thing — pick the right region

RP is tied to the account’s server/region: a code for EU won’t activate on North America and vice versa. Before buying, check which server your account is on (EU West, EU Nordic & East, North America, etc.) — the region is always stated on the product card as a neutral attribute.

How to buy safely

  1. Determine your League of Legends account region.
  2. Choose the RP amount for your goal (champion, skin, pass).
  3. Confirm the delivery format: a code card or a balance top-up.
  4. Payment and delivery happen on the seller’s side — Bazelio shows the price, region and rating. Everything about game-currency top-ups is in the game currency section.
