Team gold diff
Compare estimated team and role gold differences based on item values. This is not an exact enemy gold count.
Lightweight
Light on CPU, memory and storage, so League of Legends keeps its frame rate on entry-level PCs too.
- CPU ≈ 0.1%
- RAM Memory ≈ 10 MB
- Storage ≈ 20 MB
Built on Windows
It uses tools already built into Windows, so there is nothing extra to load while you play.
Separate from the game
It sits in its own window on top of League of Legends and never touches the game itself.
Works only when needed
It updates when there is something new to show you, and does nothing the rest of the time.
