The League of Legends Level Borders are different frames you can add to your profile to represent your level. Each border has a different theme, ranging from level 1 (the lowest level border) to level 500 (the highest level border). On April 13, 2022, Riot Games made the decision to update the level borders to have a more modern look.

Suppose you are about to level up and receive a new border, but like your current one better, you don't have to worry. You can pick freely amongst all the frames you have achieved throughout playing the game

For example, if you enjoyed the level 200 border but are about to accomplish another one for level 225, you can choose to keep the level 200 border and continue to level up. 

To choose your level border, you must go to your profile by clicking on your icon in the top right corner. Once in your profile, you have to click on the "BORDERS" option and select the border of your liking.

Receiving new level borders in League of Legends is pretty simple, and all you have to do is gain enough XP to level up. There are different ways to level up in League of Legends. The simplest way to level up is by just playing the game as you usually do. 

The longer a game is, the more XP you will gain. You also gain additional XP by winning a game. The first win of the day is one of the missions you can do to receive some extra XP. 

You cannot level up by just playing costume games, nor if you have a regular match lasting under 7 minutes. However, you can gain XP by playing Co-op vs. Ai., ARAM, Normal Games, Ranked Solo/ Duo and Flex, and the League of Legends featured game mode.

Will We Have More Level Borders In The Future?

As already mentioned, there are currently no more borders after you reach level 500, and Riot has not given out any information about adding more borders into the game. As players continue to reach higher levels, it will be exciting to see if we will receive some new borders in the future.
