How To Improve League of Legends: Wild Rift Performance

Frame Rate

60 FPS

If your device can handle it, set the frame rate to 120 for the smoothest performance. However, for most phones, 60 FPS is the best option. It offers smooth gameplay and stability. Don’t choose 30 FPS as it can feel sluggish and laggy.

Graphics Quality, Resolution, Effects Quality

Low or Medium, depending on the power of your device

Reduce lag and prevent over heating. Setting these too high can negatively impact both your gameplay and the life span of your device.

Floating Text

On

Always keep Floating Text on, even on weaker devices. You can sacrifice Graphics Quality, Resolution, or Effects Quality to keep Floating Text active.

It shows the damage you deal to enemies, the damage you take, and helps track fights better. Without it, you won’t see any damage numbers, making it harder to tell if your attacks are landing or how much damage you’re taking.

Interface Animation

Optional

This controls how interface elements like menus, notifications, and champion selection appear and transition on screen.

Character Inking

Optional

Character Inking is colored outlines around the models. It helps you easily tell apart allies and enemies, especially in team fights. However, you may not immediately tell apart which champion is which because of the outlines, making it harder to predict their moves and how to counter.

Dynamic Resolution

On

Automatically lowers resolution to maintain performance when the device overheats.

Map Brightness And FOW Brightness

It’s recommended to keep things in the middle. But you can leave them on Default or adjust them to your preference.

Adjust the brightness of your minimap and fog of war. The fog of war is the dark gradient at the edges of your screen while in matches.

Champions Outlined At Screen Edge

On

A useful feature that displays champions’ icons at the screen’s edge: Red for enemies and blue for allies.

Display Minimap Champion Healthbar

On

It lets you quickly see which champions have low HP on the minimap. This helps you decide whether to assist a teammate or go for an easy kill without having to adjust your camera around to check the situation. Seeing champions’ HP on the minimap is especially useful for champions with long-ranged ultimates like Ezreal, Lux, Jinx, Draven, and Ashe.

Sound Effects

High

Thanks to sound cues, you can sometimes react in time to dodge enemy abilities.

Champion VO

Optional

It’s best to keep it between Medium and Low to ensure you can hear more important in-game sounds.

Music

Low

Loud music can drown out important sounds and pings.

Voice Chat

High

Essential for coordinating with teammates.

Ping And Broadcast Volume

High

The most important sounds to hear for in-game awareness.

Announce Pings

On

This is the voice you hear after a ping. It’s very handy if you don’t know what the ping is about or if you’re focused on something else.

Verbose Announcer

On

Alerts you when epic monsters are slain or your tower is under attack.

Move Stick Type

Default

This setting determines how your move stick behaves.

If you choose ‘Follow‘: The move stick follows your finger anywhere on the screen, which can obscure important details and make movement less precise because your finger has to reach too far. If you choose ‘Locked‘: The move stick stays fixed in one position. If you misplace your finger, your champion may move in an unintended direction. If you choose ‘Default‘: The move stick offers more precise and comfortable movement without interfering with your view of the game.

Button Aiming Sensitivity

Optional

High sensitivity is ideal for players who want to quickly spam abilities. Low sensitivity around 20% provides more accuracy and control over aiming. Adjust to your own preferences.

Joystick Deadzone Size

Optional

Increase the deadzone size if you often aim by accident. Decrease it if auto-targeting happens when you intend to aim manually. You need to experience this by yourself to find the perfect deadzone size that fits your playstyle.

Locked Button Centers

Off

When ‘On,’ you must tap the exact center of ability buttons to aim properly. This makes ability distances center around the button, which can feel restrictive and increase the chance of missing your target.

When ‘Off,’ the point where you press becomes the center. This allows for better casting flexibility and reduces the chance of miscasting.

Action Cancel Method

Optional

With ‘Default,’ you cancel abilities by dragging them to the ‘X’ mark. It’s safe and reliable but takes slightly more time. ‘Alternative’ lets you cancel by dragging a set distance away from the button, making it faster but riskier. If you don’t drag far enough, you might accidentally cast the ability. If you prioritize speed and have precise control, ‘Alternative’ is a good choice. Otherwise, stick with ‘Default’ for safety.

Ping Button Size

Optional

The different sizes don’t really affect anything, so it’s just your preference.

Manual Aim Time Limit

7-20%

This setting determines how long you can manually aim an ability before it auto-casts. The lower the percentage, the faster abilities transition to their automatic state.

A higher percentage allows more time to aim manually but can feel clunky and terribly slow you down, as it requires an extra button press to trigger the ability’s second phase. So you’ll want to keep the Manual Aim Time Limit from 7 – 20% to have enough time to position your ability, but not take so long that it’ll risk your gameplay.

Aim Panning

On

This setting expands your vision by slightly panning the camera, making it easier to finish off low-HP enemies who escape off-screen. It’s especially beneficial for champions like Lux, Ezreal, Draven, or Vex. With Aim Panning on, you can also use their ultimates to scout the area around you.

Camera Height

High

This setting adjusts your camera height. Keeping it at Medium limits your vision, so it’s best to set it to High for better map awareness.

Ability Mini-Cam

On

This setting is a must-have if you play champions with long-rage abilities like Ezreal, Lux, Twisted Fate, and more. It adds a small window near the minimap, giving you a clear view of your abilities in action.

Camera Pan Sensitivity

Optional

This setting controls how fast and far your screen moves when dragged. Higher sensitivity (50-55%) lets you pan farther with less effort, making it useful for checking objectives and distant areas. Lower sensitivity improves accuracy for checking nearby surroundings. With low sensitivity, you can still check objectives by tapping them on the minimap. So at the end of the day, it depends on your playstyle and what your priority is.

Semi-Lock Camera

Off

This setting is difficult to use and is meant for pro players only. It expands your vision but stops the camera from following your champion, making it easy to lose track of your position, HP, and mana. If you’re attacked, canceling the semi-lock state may take too much time and can turn you into an easy target.

Since the camera lock is at the top of the screen, you’ll need to adjust it with your index finger as your thumb won’t be fast enough for team fights. Plus, the semi-lock button is close to the ultimate button, increasing the risk of accidental misplays.

Death And Spectate Panning

Optional

This setting controls how your screen moves when you’re dead or spectating. Natural pans in the direction you drag, while Inverted moves in the opposite direction. Choose what feels more intuitive for you.

Minimap Auto Pathing

On

Especially handy for early game during the laning phase. This function lets you set a path for your champion by clicking on the minimap. Your champion will move automatically, allowing you to rest your fingers or multitask, like checking items or other players.

Quick Cast Empowered Attacks

Optional

This depends largely on you because it’s a very controversial setting. If enabled, champions like Jax, Garen, or Rengar will instantly use their ultimates on anything when in range. That includes minions or even Honey Fruits instead of enemies. Quick Cast Empowered Attacks is especially problematic for Rengar, since this is the champion that suffers from it the most. It’s a double-edged knife: great for fast execution but risky if enemies are out of range.

Level-Up Suggestion

Optional

It’s useful for new players as it recommends which abilities to upgrade. However, experienced players who know optimal skill orders will likely prefer manual leveling.

Auto Level Up

Off

Like the level-up suggestion, this setting isn’t ideal for experienced players. In many situations, you’ll need to adapt your skill upgrades based on in-game situations, and auto level-up can limit your potential and hurt your gameplay.

Warding Aim Assist

Off

This setting automatically places wards in nearby bushes, which can be useful for hiding them. However, it can be frustrating when you need vision in a specific spot rather than just the nearest bush. Turn it off for more accuracy.

Ping Magnifier

Fixed

The Fixed option keeps the magnifier at the top of the map, ensuring a clear view of the minimap for accurate pings. The Following Magnifier can be distracting and cover important details.

Cast on Button Press

Off

With this setting on, abilities activate instantly, leaving no chance for second thought. Turning it off allows you to hold the button, giving you the option to cast your ability or cancel it.

Button Transparency

100%

Keeping it at full visibility ensures you can clearly see and use your buttons for quick and precise actions.

Flash Combo

Off

Flash Combo actually creates more problems than it can solve. Keep it off for more accuracy when executing Flash combos. If enabled, it may target the wrong enemy, ruin your combo, and waste your Flash.

Item Recommendation Requests

On

This allows you and your teammates to suggest items to each other, saving time and improving teamwork. For example, if your top laner is struggling against Mundo without an anti-heal item, you can quickly suggest Thornmail without needing to type out an explanation in chat.

Recall With Pre-Ordered Items

Off

With this on, you’ll just have another redundant button to recall. With this off, you can see how much gold you need for your next item and easily ping this information to your teammates.

Ward Alerts

On

This new feature helps prevent tunnel vision by alerting you when an enemy crosses your ward. It also shows enemies standing near said ward on the minimap, helping you react in time.
