Recently, League of Legends' Noxus-themed season mini-game "Devil's Pact" has caused a lot of discussion, with many players believing that the mode is very similar to "Joker", and some players even questioned whether Riot Games has lost the momentum to innovate.

"Devil's Hand Pact" is a Noxus-themed season mini-game, focusing on turn-based card combat strategy gameplay. Similar to Joker, players have to choose from 8 cards with unique skills and fight enemies through clever matches. In addition, the game also offers the ability to unlock and equip various powerful sigils, through which players can gain additional attack bonuses.
