In 2009, League of Legends made a huge step into the world of MOBAs and, despite its new look and style, it quickly became one of the largest games of all-time. From the world atlas lol of Esports to the casual scene, this game put Riot Games in the spotlight as they maintain this spectacular fantasy battleground and venture into new territory with Legends of Runeterra, Valorant , and even League of Legends: Wild Ri
It's impossible to talk about either of these games without mentioning the competitive scene surrounding them. Both titles have highlighted some of the biggest events in gaming history. Few are bigger than The International -- the annual world championship for Dota 2 with increasingly obscene amounts of money on the l
Winning a single world title -- let alone two -- is a tremendous feat. In 2015, SKT T1 became the first League of Legends team to win two titles. This pretty much solidified their legacy as the greatest League of Legends team to ever compete. At this time, the roster consisted of MaRin, bengi, Faker/Easyhoon, Bang, and W
Incorporating a skill like this into a cosplay can be nigh impossible, but @minus10degreescelsius manifests the magic by including the ethereal bow-like energy that surrounds Ezreal's gauntlet as he fires the projectile. Drawing from a previous iteration of the character's design, the cosplay resembles an archer more than the newer, more casual versions—a look that is accentuated by the gauntlet's energy
Americans have been waiting for what feels like forever for the beta to finally be released in North America for mobile devices . They have heard tales from players in countries like Thailand, the Philippines, and Singapore about its greatness. Everyone has also seen plenty of videos, screenshots, and art for Wild Rift, as w
Every game needs to have a rollout plan at launch. The plan that the developers have set in place is to introduce two new champions to the game each month. This might seem like a steep order on top of fixing whatever bugs or issues come up in the mobile vers
Eschewing the aviator jacket for the raiment of a king's inner court, the costume's blues and golds quickly signify this Ezreal's aristocratic nature. Interestingly, the power gauntlet, rather than being ornate or bejeweled, is more mundane, as it appears similar to the armored gloves soldiers might wear— though the inconspicuous nature of Ezreal's weapon is surely an ace up his sle
This roster of IG is noteworthy for playing the game with a fight-first mentality aiding in coining the term "LPL Aggression" by analysts and casters. The ultimate caveat of Invictus Gaming winning this world title is that they had virtually no path of resistance past defeating tournament favorites, KT Rolster, in the quarterfin
In 2016, the new SKT T1 roster consisting of Duke, bengi/Blank, Faker, Bang, and Wolf got off to an electric start. The team absolutely demolished the LCK 2016 Spring Split before winning the playoffs and eventually taking the Mid-Season Invitational . In the 2016 Summer Split, the team showed the same dominance but fell short when playoffs rolled aro
This is much because the game has built off a long legacy of Warcraft and its own roots as an original game. Any new cosmetic elements tend to fit the game's aesthetic smoothly and easily with few different styles clashing in most ga
Braum dashes to the target ally, positioning himself between them and the closest enemy champion, gaining bonus armor and bonus magic resistance for 3 seconds. If his target is a champion, they also receive the same bonuses.
The obvious way to implement this ability is for raising defense in tough fights or to set up for quick retreats. However, it's important to realize this ability isn't always about defense — it can help offensively as well. This ability can help Braum suddenly be in the thick of battle while buffing teammates for some serious ambush potent
More substantial in terms of visuals are the game's skins -- the main way players spend money on the game. These used to be some simple color shifts, but how many characters can have entirely different armor and bodies to match holidays, different fantasy genres, or just memes within the League community. This makes for a beautiful and hilarious mess of id
However, fans of the franchise find their patience waning as they constantly research when this game will be released. Luckily, the answer has been revealed along with other important aspects like cost and details about the champi
Alternately you could follow this meme , made with some hilarious art by hiurro , of the teleporting Twisted Fate invading any lane he chooses. Simply put, if you see a floating ominous eyeball over your head, be ready for a man to explode out of some playing cards with the power of a Stand U
League of Legends has grown into one of the most-watched esports around the world, boasting a fanatical player base and extremely competitive regional professional circuits. Each year, the major regions alongside "wildcard" regions send their best teams to compete on the grandest stage in hopes of becoming world champions. The ultimate objective: hoisting the highly coveted Summoners Cup and taking home a huge cash pr
