PVP.net Login Screen window (Patch 5.7)

PVP.net was the front-end interface for the player versus player aspect of League of Legends. It was historically used interchangeably to describe the client but is now deprecated.

Functionality

PVP.net is a platform for League of Legends to launch from. It allows you to add friends, check the League of Legends store, and join chat rooms. PVP.net can be considered a separate entity from the actual game but the two are linked and cannot be used separately.

The interface received an upgrade when Season One kicked off. The redesign included new skin selection, a new profile page with more stats, Draft Pick compatibility, and a new look in general.

Interface

Launcher

For more details, see Launcher.

The Launcher is the initial window that checks for game updates and launches the PVP.net client for League of Legends.

Login Screen

Login screen proceeds after the Launcher and is used by the player to login and sign-up the game, League of Legends. This window helps out sorting each players specific data with the login system. With each passing patch and some event, the Login Screen animation is changed accordingly. It has several options:

  • Username: A bracket made specifically to type-in the players personal Username made after he/she created an account. Each player must have a different Username.
    • If a player can not remember their Username there is also an option that helps with this issue.
  • Password: A bracket made specifically to type-in the players personal password made after he/she created an account. Each player must have a different password and is the last line of defense for unwanted account use.
    • If a player can not remember their password there is also an option that helps with this issue.
  • Sign-up: For those players who have downloaded the game but have not made an account already, the sign-up option links them to Riots account creation screen. This option works in conjuncture with Refer-A-Friend system.
  • Terms of Use: Link leading directly to the games Terms that are needed to be followed by all players who make an account and play the game.

Trivia

  • If you type the link PVP.net into a web browser and press enter you will be redirected to Leagueoflegends.com.
  • PVP.net uses a "runtime environment" called Adobe AIR. It is however directly built in the client, and does not require any download/installation from you.
  • PVP.net is analogous to Blizzard's service Battle.net.
  • The login screen is absent in servers hosted by Garena. Instead, logging in with your Garena account through their gaming platform serves as a login session when running the game.
  • When re-installing the game after the new client went to live servers, the player will be redirected to install the new client. [1]
