Web-based word guessing game Wordle, created by software engineer Josh Wardle, took the world by storm and was the most talked-about game in the early part of 2022. Since its publication, numerous people on the internet spanning continents have been sharing and celebrating their every day wins within the game.
Wordle's simplicity and straightforward approach made it a super hit, allowing many people to create similar ones. League of Legends players have their own version of Wordle called the LoLdle, a spin-off game based on Wordle and Riot Games' flagship title League of Legends.
Now, with League of Legends World Championship aka Worlds 2023 happening, another game based on the esports scene of LoL has emerged: Esportle.
Esportle allows you to guess different League of Legends esports athletes each day. Here's all you need to know about Esportle.

Rules of Esportle
Esportle allows you to guess different esports athletes each day. You have a total of five categories. Once you start guessing, you will see the boxes displaying information about the player. Aside from their name, you will be able to see their country of origin, age, team they play for, role, KDA, and DMG%.
Based on your guess, the boxes will change colors to green or red; green being correct, red being wrong. For numerical stats, the game will tell you whether the actual stat is lower or higher.
After every two guesses, you receive hints to help guess the pro player:
Mains: The top three most played champions (entire career) of the pro player.
Team: The team logo of the pro player.
First Letter: The first letter of the pro player's name.
