In fact, the way that mana is handled in Legends of Runeterra is distinct from most other games. Up to three unspent mana in a turn is carried over as spell mana in the next turn, allowing for the potential to make complex plays. Normally other card games do not allow for this kind of mana banking and players want to be as efficient as possible with their tempo plays, and not spending all or most of one’s resources in a turn is often problematic. By allowing a portion of that unspent mana to be banked each turn, strategies around tempo shift considera
The second original live-action series produced for DC Universe, Doom Patrol has been highly anticipated since the team first appeared in an episode of Titans . Based on the classic comic series about " The World's Strangest Heroes, " the new series does take some liberties with the comics by including Teen Titans mainstay Cyborg as part of their line-up. Still, with the promise of weirder characters like Danny The Street also being brought to life, this is one to keep an eye
Arrow season 7 opened with Oliver Queen in prison as a result of a plea bargain to buy immunity for his fellow vigilantes. Unfortunately, Star City went to hell in a hand-basket without its heroes, leaving a new Green Arrow ( who is apparently Oliver Queen's half-sister ) to pick up the slack. Thankfully, Oliver was freed from prison and hired on by the SCPD as a consultant so he could continue saving his city without violating the new anti-vigilante laws, though it remains to be seen if an accord can be reached between the new Green Arrow and the old
Blizzard, rather than come to a compromise to benefit all parties, chose instead to abandon KeSPA and partner with Global StarCraft League (GSL) .

MOBAs arrived as a popular genre back in 2011, but their origins can be traced back to the late ‘90s. A popular StarCraft map called Aeon of Strife is often quoted as the original MOBA. Instead of players controlling multiple units and the structures with which to build more, players controlled just a single hero unit and fought alongside a number of lesser AI-controlled units. The map is just three lanes, with the AI-controlled units battling in each one to a standstill (usually). It's up to the player-controlled heroes to turn the tide and ultimately destroy the enemy's b
The goal of each match is simple and draws from core idea of League of Legends , where two players face off to take the opposing Nexus down to zero from 20 health. Each player has an initial drawing of cards and a single mulligan phase like Hearthstone, and like that game, the mana pool grows each turn so there is no need to worry about mana or land managem
