League of Legends remains one of the most popular free-to-play games on the market today. But it also stands out as a robust esports competitor along with games like Overwatch and CS: GO . That means that, though the average player base may represent a greater population, developer Riot Games also makes game changes based on feedback from pro-players, sponsors, and commentators. Champion reworks are also a natural element of game maintenance. Since the game's launch in 2009, many champions have seen reworks while other champions ( like Dr. Mundo and Shyvana) merely have rumored reworks in the wings. Past reworks, however, have not always sat well with f
Gangplank’s rework is very similar to Galio’s in that the rework fixed a lot of the difficult-to-balance issues with the champion. But the visual rework took out a ton of the original character (a common theme in many LoL rewor
One of the common reasons players enjoy the top lane is the sense of individuality. Not only are you out of the way enough to not be worrying as much about junglers and other invaders, but you can often push your lane late in the game while the others scuffle by themsel
While the complexity of Spirit Blossom 2020 may be initially confusing, Spirit Bonds are just slightly renamed missions with a similar progression system. And there seems to be more to this Ionian festival and summer event than described so far, as several Spirit Blossom skins are releasing at a later date along with Yone, the presumed masked man from the teas
Udyr is a generation one champion released in 2009 that used to totally dominate the Rift. His kit gives a shield, lifesteal, attack speed buffs, AoE damage, mobagamezone.com and a stun. Not only could he perform in top lane, but he was an S-tier jungler for quite a long t
As sad as it may be, accepting the reality of the situation is the first step of starting the next chapter for fans. But don't fret, there is hope. OG revealed last year that a new Dota 2 minor branched team would take its place at the backline of its active roster, the team is called OG Seed. OG Seed recently participated this month at Maincast Winter Brawl and placed second. This initial step could promise new takeovers for the active roster line in the future if they do w
Last Saturday, OG revealed that the carry god himself, Anathan "Ana," Pham would be taking an extended break and coming back next season. OG stated that Ana would be returning for the Dota Pro Circuit season of 2020-2021 to play as OG's front line carry posit
The AD carry also explained how he's learned to follow his instincts while playing, and how those instinctual decisions are usually the correct ones. "I think if you’re really confident in yourself, you tend to make more of the correct decisions or do what naturally feels right, or follow your instinc
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
Counter Logic Gaming's Trevor "Stixxay" Hayes has been through it all. He first joined the League of Legends organization as a substitute back in June of 2015. Nearly a year later, the bot laner won the 2016 North American Spring title in his first ever LCS sp
In the returning Nexus Blitz game mode, there are bonus tasks for one specific Spirit Blossom champion during a random event that occurs every few minutes. Note that each one awards 3 favor upon completion for that champ
This isn’t to say the famous Trinity Force is a useless weapon , but the flat damage to all basic attacks that comes with the Blade of the Ruined King is hard to match. If you wish to play something aggressive in the top lane, you’re rarely wrong to immediately rush this powerful i
OG has made numerous headlines recently with their roster changes, so much that it makes fans fear for the future of its adored Dota 2 team. With Anathan "Ana" Pham taking an extended break and Jesse "JerAx" Vainikka retiring from the professional scene, it makes people wonder what's going to happen to OG. But with OG Seed and OG CS: GO being newly introduced, this could mean a new chapter for the esteemed organizat
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 this case, though, a meme can highlights how it can also be used to get anywhere quickly, and many champions have enough Life Steal or Health Regeneration to take down an entire Dragon. They don’t do this to explicitly embarrass their jungler, of course, but successful top laners likely consider this a fun bene
