The Spawn, also known as the Fountain, is the platform where champions spawn, respawn after dying, and teleport to after completing 
Recall. While at the spawn, players can purchase their items from the nearby shop, quickly restore any missing health or mana, and protect themselves from invading enemy threat through the Nexus Obelisk.
Location[]
Each team has their own spawn located behind their Nexus on the edge or corner of every map. They are located in the bottom left (blue) and top right (red) on 
Summoner's Rift and the bottom (blue) and top (red) on 
Howling Abyss.
Effects[]
The spawns in Summoner's Rift grant 
healing equal to 2.6% of maximum health and restore 
mana equal to 3.1% of maximum mana, both every 0.25 seconds, to allies inside on their side of the map.
On the Howling Abyss, the spawns do not grant any effects while inside, and leaving the location a certain distance away disables the shop until the champion respawns.
In the 
Ultra Rapid Fire game mode, the spawns grant massively increased healing.
Homeguard[]
- Main article: Homeguard
After 14:00, the spawn also grants the 
Homeguard bonus to champions within it.
Homeguard: Restores an additional 12% of missing health and 12% of missing mana every 0.5 seconds while within the spawn and grants 75% − 150% (based on minutes) bonus movement speed that decays over 7 seconds, increased to 125% − 200% (based on minutes) with the 
Hand of Baron.
Player disconnection[]
Players that disconnect from the match will automatically path towards their spawn. Upon arrival, their champion becomes completely immune to damage. This is to prevent enemies from spawn-killing.
Trivia[]
- Instead of immunity to damage, champions used to receive bonus armor and magic resist while their summoner was disconnected.
- Until the release of Draven, disconnected players only received bonus magic resist in the fountain. This was changed after Draven's release to also grant additional armor as his Whirling Death was the first global ability to deal physical damage.
- Until the release of
- The term fountain originated from League of Legends' predecessor Defense of the Ancients, in which heroes spawned from the fountain.
