Hey there, I played around with Wild Rift for the first time in ages, realising that the tutorials are not exactly gone, but overwent a whole makeover with the Battle Academy tab ... I thought the former approach was much better, but ah well.

Thing is, the old tutorials do still exist and there are even new ones in the same style. I used a new account to check how you get introduced to Wild Rift when you start it up for the first time.

Wild Rift asks you a question: Have you played League of Legends before? If you say "No", it starts the Basic Tutorial (still the same, with Jinx' animation video and all). If you finish/skip it, Wild Rift makes you choose a character and loads you into a game formerly known as the Wild Rift Tutorial.

If you finish/skip it, it opens the entire "Battle Academy" tab with your admission and all. With this comes a "Wild Rift Guide" which mainly makes you play PVP games to earn loot. You can ignore all those and navigate to the icon in the top right corner that looks like a little calendar with a tick and open your "Activites" tab.

Here you find: Tada, the old tutorials. Starting with the Target Lock tutorial. Thing is, you cannot choose specific tutorials and you cannot skip out of these tutorials either, you have to finish them all in a row to get to the next tutorial.

The order of the tutorials is the following:

1. Basic Tutorial - Skippable
2. Formerly Wild Rift Tutorial - Skippable
3. Target Lock Tutorial
4. Minion and Turret Button Tutorial
5. Portrait Lock Feature
6. Turrets Tutorial
7. Jungle Monsters Tutorial
8. Baron Nashor Tutorial
9. Dragon Lane Tutorial
10. Elemental Rift - Advanced as Master Yi (New)
11. Baron Lane Tutorial as Garen (New)
12. Jungle Tutorial as Master Yi (New)
13. Mid Lane Tutorial as Ahri (New)
14. Marksman Tutorial as Jinx (New)
15. Support Tutorial as Seraphine (New)
16. Baron Pit Tutorial as Master Yi (New)
17. Dragon Pit Tutorial as Master Yi (New) BUGGED

The Dragon Pit Tutorial is bugged. The dragon doesn't spawn, the minions don't spawn and the enemy towers don't even attack you. I tried restarting the game and clicking on the tutorial three times. It is defunct. The only way to get through the tutorial is have Yi destroy all the towers and then the enemy Nexus.

18. Placing Wards and Removing Enemy Wards Tutorial as Master Yi (New)
19. Turret Plating Tutorial as Jinx (New)

I thought maybe, maybe if you complete them all, they'd be repeatable. But they aren't. The options in the 'Activities' tab simply disappears.

How are we now able to run the tutorials for Wild Rift? As of right now, the 2nd of July 2024, if you've already played through the tutorials with your account, the only way for you to run them is to create a new account, unfortunately.

Which begs the question if the current leader board should be discarded and archived. Forcing people to make a new account every time they want to run the game, and playing through all of the tutorials before getting to the one they want to run feels very awkward and punishing.

Opinions?
