How RiftSurge Works
From setup to insights—here's how we help your team improve
Getting Started
RiftSurge is designed to be simple to set up but powerful in practice. The entire process from creating your team to receiving AI insights takes just a few minutes, and then the platform works automatically in the background.
Here's how it works from start to finish:
Step 1: Create Your Team
The first step is creating your team profile. You'll choose a team name, set your region, and configure basic settings. This takes less than a minute, and you can customize everything later.
- 1. Sign up for a free RiftSurge account (no credit card required)
- 2. Create your team and invite members via Discord or email
- 3. Connect your Riot Games account to enable automatic data sync
Once your team is set up, you can start adding players to your roster. Each player connects their Riot account, and RiftSurge automatically pulls their match history and statistics.
Your roster stays organized with roles, statuses, and quick access to player details.
Step 2: Automatic Game Tracking
This is where RiftSurge really shines. Once your team members are connected, we automatically track every game they play—scrims, Clash tournaments, Flex queue, and more. No manual entry required.
How It Works
- • RiftSurge monitors Riot's API for new games involving your team members
- • When a scrim or practice game is detected, it's automatically added to your team's history
- • Game data, statistics, and timeline information are synced in real-time
- • You can also manually add games from matches played outside the platform
This automation means you can focus entirely on playing and improving, while RiftSurge handles all the data collection and organization behind the scenes.
Stay on top of every practice block with live status updates and opponent details.
Step 3: Comprehensive Analytics
As games are tracked, RiftSurge builds a comprehensive picture of your team's performance. You get access to detailed statistics that go far beyond what traditional stat trackers provide.
