I want to buy a laptop , on which I want to play League of Legends mostly and I have a budget of $500-600 , I want it to be reliable - meaning that I can use it for at least 2 years and a half, as well as 15.6 inch display. And when I say I want to play League of Legends mostly , I wanna as well that I might play a little bit newer games up until 2014 with lowest settings available. Any suggestions ?
 
LoL is a pretty easy game to run and can be played using only integrated graphics which the Acer Aspire and Lenovo Edge 15 has and they should be within your budget. The Lenovo Y40 starts at $650 so it is a little bit over your budget, but it does come with a Radeon R9 M275 which is a pretty capable graphics chip; I consider it to be an "entry level performance" graphics chip which would be a bit better than a "mainstream" graphics chip like the nVidia GeForce 840m / 940m which are a lot more powerful than integrated graphics.

I recommend you consider the following Acer Laptop Aspire V3-572G-543S for $570 which comes with a Core i5-5200u CPU, the nVidia 840m and a 1080p screen. The nVidia 840m (and Radeon R9 M275) are not really capable of playing most games at 1080p with medium settings. But LoL is a very easy game to run so you should be able to play on high or ultra high settings at 1080p.
