The War for Runeterra took place in Runeterra, a planet found in the Sizzx'ixi universe. The battle began in 977 AN (1675 NE) when the Coalition of Independent States forces arrived in this universe, pirates and smugglers first saw potential in recruiting allies and resources for the inter dimensional war, but some rivals first decide to fight amongst themselves for greater power over the planet, yet learned that they have powerful individuals known as Champions would not give without a fight.

While most magical forces in the Horde continued their fight with these forces, the battle soon drawn the attention of the Axis of Empires who later arrived in the Siizx'ixi universe and discovered Runeterra from their spies. The Galactic Empire launched an invasion with the Principality of Belka to hold a limited control due to their war back in their home universe but provided support, along with the newly collabatortive forces of Ionia and Noxus.

The nations of Runeterra held their ground and continued to fight back but struggled with the arrival of the Combine Empire but received support and aide by the Alliance of Nations.

The war carried on for 25 years, not only on Runeterra but its neighbouring worlds also until the Allies were victorious and Runeterra being unified under a democratic confederation of all of its' major states, with a reformed and liberalized Demacia as a major leading state of the new confederal government along with Piltover-Zaun.

Three months after the start of the War for Runeterra, the three rival factions of the Alliance, Axis, and Coalition fell upon the neighboring cities of Piltover and Zaun in a furious three-way battle. The champions of the two cities discovered the arrivals of the enemy powers when Vi and Caitlyn Kiramman discovered a small group of Horde Orks attempting to sabotage one of the power reactors along the cities' river.

After the two defeated the Orks without much difficulty, they went to their respective cities to warn their allies that they believed and invasion was coming, but within half an hour, the Coalition attacked the city in force, closely followed by the Axis and the Combine. The scattered Alliance defenders already present in the city stood no chance, and were instantly overwhelmed by the two clashing powers. The Piltover Enforcement attempted to evacuate most of the population, but failed.

The various champions were forced to hide for the sake of preserving their own lives, while the Combine eventually defeated the Coalition and wrestled control of the city from them. Overwatch troopers swarmed the streets of Zaun. The sprawling trench streets that the criminals and rebels of Zaun had once used against the Enforcement became their own prisons, as the Combine easily corralled most of Zaun's population into six designated areas and began to slowly kill them off in a process not dissimiliar to a butchery. Combine Hyenas swarmed the corpse piles and carried the bodies off the be resurrected as TransRace soldiers. Piltover faired better, if only slightly, as the Combine spared more of their population in exchange for the city's unconditional surrender and complete cooperation, yet even then the Combine still forced the population into designated areas and strictly enforced them, leaving the rest of the city abandoned while also putting in plans to start killing off the population like they were doing in Zaun.

The surviving champions managed to link up by sneaking through the cities' sewer network, dodging Combine probe drones the whole way, and holed up at one of Ekko's secret hideouts. From these few champions, the resistance would be formed, as the group agreed to keep fighting the Combine. Along with Vi, Caitlyn, and Ekko, Jayce Talis, a genius inventor, and many others managed to find the hideout. They eventually managed to make contact with the Alliance of Nations, and the two exchanged important information on the enemy.
