How to show all all the names from API to be rendered in DOM?

I am using React and trying to print all names of the characters from an API using useState() and useEffect() hooks from React but only the last character name is printed to the DOM instead of the entire list (I'm using a for loop inside of the useEffect hook). Is there something I'm doing wrong for it to only show the last character in the array?

const Compare = () => {

    const[allChampions, setAllChampions] = useState("");

    useEffect(() => {
        axios.get('https://api.sportsdata.io/v3/lol/stats/json/Champions?key=94c287b249d74701adf60e03aa398884')
        .then((res) => {
            let data = res.data;

            for( let i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
                const championNames = data[i].Name;
                setAllChampions(championNames);
            }
        })

You have to use map

 {allChampions.map((item)=>
               { 
                <div key={item.ChampionId} className='championNames'>
                    {item.Name}
                </div>
                
                })}

i suggest u to use the .map fuction instead o this. then after the fetching you set the state called data with the data u have fetched. then inside the jsx use this

 axios.get('https://api.sportsdata.io/v3/lol/stats/json/Champions?key=94c287b249d74701adf60e03aa398884')
    .then((res) => {
        let data = res.data}
 .then(setdata(data))

//then u can use the map function like i said

{data && data.map(item=>(
<h1>{item}</h1>
))};

this means that when the data is here get every object in that list and pass it into h1 tag

You need to make minor changes in your useEffect

useEffect(() => {
        axios.get('https://api.sportsdata.io/v3/lol/stats/json/Champions?key=94c287b249d74701adf60e03aa398884')
        .then((res) => {
            let data = res.data;
            const championNames = []
            for( let i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
                championNames.push(data[i].Name)
            }
            setAllChampions(championNames);
        })
    }, [])

Or you can use more better approaches that others are suggesting.
