In this article, we will take a look at the various borders provided by Riot Games to the players. We will also guide you on how to change your border to represent your expertise or rank in the game.

What Are Borders?

In League of Legends, you are allowed to select from a massive variety of icons to represent your account best. Think of them as profile pictures that everyone can see and recognize. Around these icons, Riot Games also allows you to pick one border from however many are available to you. These are round emblems surrounding your icon to make it look more appealing.

There are two main ways to gain borders in League of Legends. The most common one is the one gained by leveling up. This is the one that everyone has, irrespective of their rank on the competitive ladder, simply by leveling up. The other one is the border gained based on your rank in the Ranked game mode.

Borders Gained By Milestone Rewards

League of Legends players level up by gaining Experience Points (XP). Upon leveling up, they gain consistent rewards such as Champion Capsule or BE. But at certain milestones in the level-up process, there are additional rewards granted.

One of these milestone rewards is a new border that represents your account level. You gain XP by playing the game and completing missions (if available). The milestones and the borders rewarded for them are listed in the table below.

The following image displays the new borders planned for the 2023 changes:
