URF Deathmatch is a mode where you're surrounded by minions and your cooldowns are decreased by 80% and there are no ability costs. In this ring of minions, teams must battle it out in a best of 3 match. If you get this event, you're going to be glad you built for Ability Power because you can spam your high-damage abilities like there is no tomorrow. Coordination can be implemented here, but the event will most likely determine which player has the strongest build at that point in the g

In Nexus Blitz you're going to be constantly dealing damage and receiving damage. The Ocean Soul reward ensures that every trade is in your favor because it allows you to restore health and mana when dealing damage to the enemy. The effect only lasts 3 minutes, but that is plenty of time to decimate your opponents with your superior sust

The champion who is often associated with "200 years" has been facing some adversity as of late. As one of the most heavily contested champions in the meta currently, Apehlios has gone 2-6 in its last 8 games in the

Stixxay talked about some of what he learned from his past bot lane partners. Speaking of aphromoo, who was his first-ever support in the LCS, Stixxay praised him for being a "personable" leader. "If I was in distress or I felt like I didn’t know what was going on with the team, he was always the guy that I’d message late at night and be like, ‘Yo, can you help me work through this because I just don’t know what’s going

A somewhat recent item that is no longer in the game for several reasons. Initially granting the user 50 armor and magic resist and movement speed around turrets. What people remember the ZZ'Rot Portal for is its ability to summon void minions to push waves. An active ability to drop a portal that endlessly spawns minions that push up a lane. If not dealt with, this item can hold waves for a long time, and help siege objectives. Also, every 4th minion it spawned as buffed, but each minion died after about 4 seconds on their

While overall more fleshed out, this version wipes out the more distant seige row, distilling the focus to Melee and Ranged lines. In a multi-tiered card battle not unlike Magic the Gathering , players throw down a card each turn from a ten-card hard, choosing from different offensives and special abilities to inflict upon the opposite s

After the offseason, the CLG bot laner feels as though his team has gone through a fundamental reset. Now, with the team off to a 3-1 start, Stixxay feels confident in his teammates to perform better than they did last sp

Certain items have had their costs increase to reflect their strength and the broad utility that players gain from acquiring them early in the game. By upping their respective costs, players can skill benefit from each but will need to wait longer to afford each. The main price changes

There are plenty of game modes too such as the exciting PvE Mann Vs Machine mode, along with the neverending selection of PvP modes. Despite the classic shooter receiving few major updates since 2017, the TF2 community keeps the game alive with impressive mods and game mo

This means that certain heroes who have a high base movement speed such as Keeper of the Light will benefit less from the use of these items compared to before because they are receiving a bonus that disregards their inherently high base speed. On the opposite end of things, heroes that are inherently slower in their base speed like Medusa will benefit slightly by becoming faster than when using percentage-based bonus items for movement speed. Players who do not pay attention to this change will certainly be in for a rude awakening as they slightly overextend with a hero that was slightly faster only last w

The latest additional game mode is the highly requested Nexus Blitz, which is kind of a mix of both ARAM and Summoner's Rift. This isn't the first time this game mode has appeared, but its back with a new map and some other fun changes. Unfortunately, the game mode isn't here to stay and is only in beta mode. It seems Riot Games wants to reserve Nexus Blitz for occasional events and is currently looking for player feedback on the fledgling mode. Currently, Nexus Blitz still has the same base objective as both ARAM and Summoner's Rift, but every few minutes there is a mini-MOBA Game Patch Notes event that both teams participate in. The team that wins the event gets a random bonus of some sort to benefit their team. So if you need a game mode to relax with after some intense ranked matches, stay tuned and this guide will show you how to play Nexus Bl

Ahead of the 2020 Spring Split, Counter Logic Gaming acquired former world champion Lee "Crown" Min-ho. After a 1-7 start, Crown was benched for veteran Eugene "Pobelter" Park. "When [Pobelter] first joined, the team was kinda off the rails in a way," Stixxay said while laughing. "We forgot about a lot of the fundamentals and basics of the game cause we’d just been losing so mu
