"You get a lot of people that don't know exactly what characters to pick," he said, noting that fighting games are highly character-driven. "All these different types of characters are really, really popular. But not everyone knows how to play them, or what team to put them with. I can help them with th
Galeforce's active dashes the user in a target direction, similar to Stridebreaker but with a longer dash. This dash will also fire bolts that deal bonus damage based on the target's missing health. Marksmen like Kai'Sa can utilize Galeforce to execute targets, while marksmen like Jinx can use it for repositioning and maximizing DPS uptime. Its active is absurdly powerful, and shouldn't be igno
Further, it feels good knowing my money is going directly to the coach, allowing them to continue doing what they love. While revenue from tournaments, streaming, and YouTube can help, most players won’t be able to live off of those sources of income alone. Coaching provides them another opportunity to gain income for their years of hard w
While this comic from Hot Paper is in the DOTA 2 subreddit, its heartwarming message applies just as much to League of Legends or any other MOBA game . People of all backgrounds play these games, and it’s extremely rare that faulty teammates are intentionally sabotaging your experie
The champions of the mid lane aren’t only diverse in mechanics, but also quite diverse in terms of appearance. Besides the humanoid characters, several monsters like the gargoyle Galio and the immense Cho'Gath are much more reminiscent of the intimidating monsters of the jungle than other champi
With the recent item overhaul, it's easy to forget that many champions have also gotten serious changes due to their passives being related to their build. Viktor is perhaps the biggest recent example with his upgradable Hex Core item now being removed entirely for an ability upgrade system based around killing minio
Another item that's received buffs to its weak early state, Stridebreaker had a rough time breaking through. Goredrinker was previously in an overpowered state, and most bruisers would simply go for the superior option. With nerfs to Goredrinker, Stridebreaker has risen as an alternative that's arguably super
Before I signed up for the session, I wanted to understand Metafy from a coach’s perspective. I spoke with Perry "KnowKami" Vinson , a partnered Twitch streamer , YouTuber and top-level Dragon Ball FighterZ player. Vinson said he joined the site after seeing other players tweet that they’d started coaching on Met
Any mid lane main who has played for 6+ years will remember the infamous Deathfire Grasp item. A staple for assassin-type mid champions like Ahri or Leblanc, this item provided an extreme boost to ability power. However, it also had a truly over-powered activateable abil
Some fans might shake their heads at this thinking, "Nah, the PROJECT: Yasuo skin is WAY better." Those fans are also try-hards who can't break out of gold. All jokes aside, many fans do prefer this western-themed skin to Yasuo's many other, admittedly, excellent skin opti
For the most part, it’s fairly hard to believe when someone claims to be smurfing, meaning they claim to be playing on a lower ranked account than their normal one. These claims are nearly impossible to verify, and even a victorious game can hardly dictate whether they're telling the tr
However, based on the knowledge that I started working with Canadas near the beginning of Season 8, one way to compare is to examine my stats from Season 7 and see how they compare to those of Seaso
Fnatic and their roster consisting of xPeke, Cyanide, Shushei, LamiaZealot, and Mellisan got off to a rocky start. They narrowly made it out of group stages. But the team went on to perform an incredible miracle run by defeating CLG and EPIK Gamer. They eventually defeated aAa in the finals. Unfortunately, this Worlds was not incredibly memorable due to the lack of a defined meta, player storylines, and the relative newness of the game as it had only launched in 2
In a brutal 3 - 0 set, SKT T1 beat out tournament favorites Royal Club and SK Telecom T1 alongside their legendary Mid Lane player, Faker. He created a legacy that would go unrivaled to this day. At the time of this victory, SKT T1's roster consisted of Impact, bengi, Faker, Piglet, and PoohMa
Health items had a massive amount of variety in the early days of League of Legends and even in the modern-day, there are all sorts of items with different effects to keep your bulky champions bulkier. For the greediest players, Leviathan did this alarmingly well for those who could get enough ki
The affectionately nicknamed "rainbow pony" released in 2013 for 1350 RP and saw tons of love when it first came out. The Guitar Hero style weapon paired with the mecha-rainbow unicorn design was a total home run with Lol World Atlas play
