League of Legends currently has 172 champions. That matches multiple recent sources from late 2025 and 2026, though one official page still uses the broader wording “over 170 champions.”

Quick Scoop

  • Total champions: 172
  • Official wording: “over 170 champions”
  • Why the wording differs: some pages round up, while database-style lists track the exact current count.
