Here’s how it works, as specified by Riot’s original release, which you can read here:

  • Download your replay from the “end of game” screen or your match history.
  • Watch replays from the current patch using the new replay mode with the functionality from spectator mode.
  • Find cool moments using the new annotated timeline, which marks major events, like kills, takedowns of towers/inhibitors and dragon/Baron kills.
  • Capture video clips of your in-game moments (“highlights”) using built-in recording functionality.
  • These highlights will be stored on your hard drive as a .webm video file.

This is sure to bring a lot of joy to the community, with content creators finding a more easy way to access their gameplay videos. 2017 is looking better and better already for League of Legends.
