League players rejoice! We're so excited to add League of Legends to our roster of supported GameSense titles, so you can enjoy reactive RGB and more!
What is GameSense?
Unlike your teammates, your SteelSeries gear can celebrate your pentakill.
Simply put, GameSense allows your SteelSeries gear to react to in-game (and out-of-game) events with illumination effects, OLED screen info, and haptic feedback. Depending on what gear you have, this can mean lighting up when your mic is active in Discord, vibrating when your game starts, displaying your system info, and more.
You can find all GameSense titles and other apps and customizations in the newest version of SteelSeries Engine.
League of Legends RGB notifications
Customize any of your SteelSeries RGB products with color-changing lighting effects that coincide with in-game events:
Baron and Dragon timers, plus plenty of other illumination options can be customized:
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| Gold | Changes color depending on how much money the player currently has |
| Health | Changes color depending on how much health the player currently has |
| Mana | Changes color depending on how much mana/energy the player currently has |
| Game Started | Informs the player that the game has started |
| Dead | Changes color depending on whether the player is currently alive or dead |
| Teammates Alive | Illuminated bar that displays the current number of teammates alive |
| Enemies Alive | Illuminated bar that displays the current number of enemies alive |
| Creep Score | Changes color depending on how many creeps the player has landed the last hit on |
| Dragon Spawn Timer | Changes color depending on how long until Dragon spawns or respawns |
| Baron Spawn Timer | Changes color depending on how long until Baron spawns or respawns |
| Baron Buff Timer | Changes color depending on how long the buff received from killing Baron lasts |
| Kills | Changes color depending on how many kills the player has |
| Assists | Changes color depending on how many assists the player has |
| Deaths | Changes color depending on how many times the player has died |
Edit one key, or a group of keys to represent whatever stats you need.
Here is the standard League of Legends layout, with the function keys representing your health bar, and number keys representing mana.
Seeing your health bar turn from green to yellow to red in your peripheral vision can be lifesaving during a hectic teamfight. In my case, I like to set up board-wide health notifications so it's impossible to miss. You can customize the colors to work for you though - maybe you prefer your health to fade from teal to black to match your setup, etc.
The Apex 3 has 10 pre-set RGB zones that you can customize, while the Apex 5, Apex 7, and Apex Pro keyboards have per-key customization. SteelSeries RGB headsets, RGB mice, and RGB mousepads all work too!
League of Legends OLED notifications
The OLED (and RGB) lets you know that Dragon is about to spawn!
GameSense also displays customizable infomation on any of your SteelSeries products with an OLED display. These products include:
- Rival 710
- Apex 5 (including TKL)
- Apex 7 (including TKL)
- Apex Pro (including TKL)
- Arctis Pro + GameDAC
- Arctis Pro Wireless
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| Game Started | Informs the player that the game has started |
| Timers | Shows timers for Dragon and Baron respawn |
| Dragon Killed | Informs the player that Dragon has been killed. May also include the name of the player that got the kill |
| Baron Killed | Informs the player that Baron has been killed. May also include the name of the player that got the kill |
League of Legends tactile notifications
GameSense can also use tactile notifications (vibrations) to alert you about the game starting, dragon spawns, and more. The products that have tactile notifications include:
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| Game Started | Informs the player that the game has started |
| Dragon Spawn | Informs the player that Dragon is spawning soon / has spawned |
| Baron Spawn | Informs the player that Baron is spawning soon / has spawned |
| Dragon Killed | Informs the player that Dragon has been killed |
| Baron Killed | Informs the player that Baron has been killed |
Where to find League customization
You can enable, disable, and customize all GameSense titles and apps in SteelSeries Engine under "Apps". Make sure you're on version 3.18 or later.
This is where you can toggle the feature on or off, and fully customize any of your compatible gear to function in League.
System monitor
Whether or not you're playing League, your OLED can also display your CPU and GPU load and other system infomation that you might want to quickly check without having to tab out of your game.
GameSense will show relevant game info during events like when you die, but will toggle back to showing your system info if you have both enabled in SteelSeries Engine.
Discord
Another helpful app with GameSense integration is Discord! Use your OLED display to see who is talking, or have an RGB light up when you or someone else is transmitting audio.
Speaking of Discord, feel free to join the official SteelSeries Discord to connect with us and other League players!
We hope that these convenient features help you out in League of Legends. Update to the latest version of SteelSeries Engine to start customizing!
