Eight months later, we can say with absolute certainty that the statement was grown in the deepest levels of Blizzard’s PR dungeon, sprinkled with the highest quality of Corporate brand bullshit, and masked with enough perfume so as to hide its decaying stench long enough for people to forget about the whole thing. Two heroes have been released, and a number of events that focus on selling skins are all players have been given, and there is no reason to expect anything m
Respawn expects a higher level of commitment during ranked play compared to regular matches. To that end, they have instituted a leavers penalty to anyone who does not completely finish their match. Respawn considers leaving early to include leaving during character select, while you are alive, or while you are dead but can still be respaw

The heroes are also a bit more unique due to being predecessors to most MOBA archetypes, with incredibly unique abilities and spells. What makes things even better is that DOTA2 just looks good for a game that's entirely free, and that's a rarity these d
Even if you suffer a lot early game and die in lane quite a bit, you can still make a reliable reverse sweep in the middle and late game, as long as you manage your build and resources properly and plan your team fights. While dying in a MOBA is usually a serious thing as it gives your enemy an advantage, in DOTA2 this advantage has a chance of being turned on its h
Haeley, also known as @kaiathyte, creates an incredible Jinx cosplay. Alongside the signature floor-length blue braids and bulleted belt, Haeley’s built a replica Fishbone canon. Sadly, she notes that her prop broke during a convention, but not before this amazing shot of her Jinx cosplay was captu

RP scored from kills is capped off at five points per game, while just surviving into the top three will net you seven. Managing to actually win the game is worth a staggering twelve ranked poi

Many consider Blizzard’s Star Craft: Brood War to be the foundation of all esports. By 2006, the game was established as a mainstream juggernaut icon in Korea and the global community. It was the first game to bring in big-name sponsors and had fans watching all over the world.
