League of Legends analysis uses data obtained from 7 different leagues, which are distributed with the results of each game worldwide. What they are trying to predict for future games is whether a simple data classifier will win.

League of Legends used statistical data split in spring 2017, which started with a large number of data sets. They can access all variables of each game (players, winners, teams, gold medals, injuries, etc.), and then divide them further by team, and finally assign each player by ten variables.

After testing various methods for data analysis, they reached the following conclusions:

Unsupervised classification of each team is done by grouping variables on the subject: gold, CS ("agriculture"), ward, target, and KDA ratio.

Considering whether they are on the blue side or the red side, plus the winning trend of the last five games.

League of Legends will use unsupervised learning to characterize the teams in each game and supervised learning to predict future games.

Team data: 

League of Legends use team data to avoid player substitutions and changes.

Data Gaps:

Sometimes some members have different information than other team members. Through several tests, we have verified that the solution that provides better results is to replace those situations with the average of the corresponding variables.

With the data that has been optimized and prepared, we can proceed to group classification. We used unsupervised classification method, which includes Python's Sklearn library. The algorithm will analyze the team based on the previously selected game aspect and then classify it based on the team's behavior.

This is how League of Legends uses machines and big data to analyze and predict future games.
