Have you tried the estimator? https://obsproject.com/estimator

After using the estimator, my recommendation would be to do some trial and error on getting the settings just right for the particular games you might be streaming. Seems like you're mostly limited by your upload though. Probably would recommend something like 720p or 540p at 30fps with perhaps around 2000 bitrate or less.

where can i set the p rate? and is there a way to limit the upload useage? So i won't lagg ingame while streaming

You can change what resolution the stream is in Settings>Video.Honestly, 720p30fps at 2000 bitrate should look pretty solid for LoL, assuming your connection can handle that without having high ping in game. You can probably go as low as 1500-1800 bitrate before you'd want to consider downscaling further.
