Minions

Minions are AI-controlled units that make up the Nexus’s primary offensive push. They periodically spawn from each team’s Nexus in small groups, then march down a lane toward the opposing Nexus, automatically attacking any enemy units they meet along the way. They rely only on basic attacks.

Each batch of minions that spawns together is known as a wave, and the timing and flow of these waves play a major role in setting the overall tempo of the match.
