Thats not the definition for film though.

"A film adaptation is the transfer of a work or story, in whole or in part, to a feature film."

There is no story from LoL that it takes and expands upon so technically it's not, but it's beside the point. The show is excellent regardless.

I guess it comes down to what you’d say a story is. There’s blurbs in the games about character backstories, and I know it’s a popular theory (or even confirmed I’m not really sure) about >!Vander becoming Warwick!< just based on what happened to them in the season.

There’s lore, and that’s getting adapted for tv. Again I think it’s more just a discussion of “how good an adaption is it” than if it is or not.

But yeah I really like it
