  3. Using your LoL (League of Legends) information, sign in. Check or uncheck the box next to "Stay Signed In" if you want to stay signed into this user or switch to another account.
    • Make sure the appropriate region for you is selected in the drop-down box under your password.
  4. If your username is unique enough, you will not need to change it and you're done.
    • If you need to change your username, consider using an alpha-numeric combination, as that might be more widely available. [1]
    • This is not the same as your Summoner name, which is seen publicly. Your username is private and visible only to you. [2]
