Cloud Dragon — **Cloud Drake:** Cloud is the unwanted little brother of the bunch. If it’s time for a cloud soul in-game, you know it’ll be a slow affair since nobody really needs this dragon most of the time. Cloud Drake gives you extra movement speed and **ability haste**. (Credit: Riot Games)

Ocean Dragon — **Ocean Drake:** Ocean Drake turns the rift into a lush forest with grass growing everywhere. But what does he do for your champions? Well, this drake lets players gain back some of their missing health. This is one of the best early game dragons to get since it’ll let you sustain through the laning phase with ease.

Infernal dragon — **Infernal Drake:** This is probably the strongest of all dragons since it has pure and raw power. The Infernal Drake gives your team added AP and AD percentages. Which team comp wouldn’t want a little bit more firepower? (Credit: Riot Games)

Mountain dragon — **Mountain Drake:** The Mountain Drake is slow to beat the dragon, due to its sheer defensive stats, but once you’ve got your hands on it, you gain extra magic resist and armour from the buff. This is another dragon who is useful at any point and time. (Credit: Riot Games)

**Elder Dargon:** The main dish. This dragon spawns once one of the two teams has gained a dragon soul. So this can either happen quite quickly or… never. But the Elder Dragon is extremely strong and useful and is only rivaled by the Baron. Having acquired previous dragons only make the Elder that much stronger by increasing their buff power by 50%. Basic attacks will also deal burn damage to opponents. But this buff doesn’t last for the rest of combat, like Baron it expires after a certain amount of time. (Credit: Riot Games)

There are multiple neutral objectives in League of Legends. Some merely give gold and experience, while others give buffs to the champion who slew them, like the blue and red buff. There are also bigger and far more dangerous neutral objectives though and those are the ones we are going to take a look at today.

Dragons are a key part of League of Legends. They have different elements and since season 10 even have an effect on the rift thanks to the elemental rift. But what exactly does one gain from slaying the dragon? Well, we’re here to let you know about each of the dragons in League of Legends!
