Finally, after years of mediocre performance and fierce competition from games like League of Legends , the Proleague was discontinued in 2016. Blizzard had very badly dropped its Golden Goose of a franchise that could have gone on to dominate the esports wo
The builds for these characters are typically decked out in intricate armor, with many of the characters also holding weapons of massive proportions. Despite the seemingly daunting tasks, these cosplayers have defied the odds to create some of the best League of Legends cosplays on the inter
2019 is shaping up to be the biggest year yet for DC Entertainment, _**** _ with 25 confirmed feature-length films, TV series, and animated movies based on DC Comics properties planned for www.mobapulse.Com release. Many of these are established series such as the various live-action shows making up The CW's Arrowverse ; others are new series being produced exclusively for the new DC Universe streaming service, which was released to wide acclaim last f
Leona was born a warrior, but spared the life of a young boy who would lead her to the light of the Solari temple where she would harness the power of the sun. Leona hoists the Zenith Blade and Shield of Daybreak by her side at all times. Her armor is a recognizable shimmering gold with prominent spi
Leonardo has his own set of impressive armor that mirrors Garen’s skin in League of Legends. This cosplayer’s attention to detail in his armor making is simply mesmerizing and his Sunsteel Broadsword is something to be desired. Leonardo’s other cosplays include Jayce and "Mister Fortu
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. At the height of its popularity, the video below gives a picture of the scope of popularity and production value that went into the ga
Shazam! stars Zachary Levi as the grown-up superhero Shazam and Mark Strong as Dr. Thaddeus Sivana - Shazam's arch-enemy in the comics. The villain's origin is reportedly being changed for the movie, however, with Dr. Sivana now being one who was denied the power of Shazam because of his dark heart rather than a mad scientist determined to prove the superiority of his science over Shazam's ma
Blizzard, rather than come to a compromise to benefit all parties, chose instead to abandon KeSPA and partner with Global StarCraft League (GSL) . The decision was catastrophic from the start, as KeSPA prohibited its member teams from participating in any StarCraft II competitions. The best talent in the world was effectively prevented from playing in any tourname
The Philippine squad first turned heads at ESL One Hamburg with their barely scathed record of only one lost match. Subsequently, TNC won the tournament in October and took home $125 thousand because of their dominant Earthshaker and Morphling hero combination. Highlighting the superiority of meta cycling, TNC proved to be more than just a regular south-east Asian t
Building up your hero is automated by default. If you don't "pre-order" a late-game item, the game will prompt you to buy the next affordable recommended item as soon as you have the gold. When you level up, the game will automatically apply a point to an ability. Since you can't freely choose targets with a mouse pointer, there's a priority system. With a click of the left stick, your hero will cycle between targeting creeps, structures, or enemy heroes. It's all streamlined, designed for console players who probably never played a PC MOBA. Fortunately for experienced players, it can all be turned off. Well, except for the game pad controls. The devs are planning to eventually put Genesis on PC, but have stated that they don't plan on incorporating mouse and keyboard contr
As with LoL , Dota2 also got into eSports in a big way. The International, Dota2 's annual global tournament, began with a prize pool of just $1.6 million. By 2019, The International’s prize pool had grown to over $31 million--the largest offering of any esports tournament in hist
After playing several hours of Genesis , I have this vague desire to play more. I don't totally credit that to anything unique to Genesis , however. The simplified experience is nice in some ways. I didn't use voice chat, and there's obviously no text chat, so other players couldn't be toxic without going out of the way to send PMs, which didn't happen. The connection was surprisingly stable even on wi-fi. It was also nice to play a MOBA without a definitive meta, with beginners who are just there to have fun (and don't have the map awareness to avoid my gan
