Scuttle Racing: 2 Rift Scuttlers race down a track from top lane to the bottom lane. Champions with CC are extremely valuable in slowing down the enemy Scuttler, but the allied Scuttler is also coded as a champion so it can be buffed, sped up, or thrown across the finish line with some interacti
While slowing down releases of new champions, League of Legends has spent a ton of time reworking older characters to fit into the game better. Classic characters like Fiddlesticks and Volibear have had huge recent overhauls on their attacks and animations, and while they might play better now, it can be jarring for returning play
The greatest players in the history of League of Legends cement their legacy at the World Championship. Faker , Mata, Ambition, and Rookie all etched their names in the pantheon of esports on this stage. Every year, players from around the world hope to reach the top of the mountain and throw their names in with the greats. This year is no exception. The only question is, who is currently the best player in the world? Who will carry their team and their region to victory? After days of VOD review, we built a list of what we feel are the top 20 players at the tournament based on 2020 domestic performan
Prize Fight: Both teams square off in 1v1 or 2v2 fights at the center of the map. Note that fighting players will spawn near the brush in lane, so placing some traps as Teemo, Maokai, or other champions prior to the event start can result in a quick round vict
Consistency is important in a game, and while these changes are small enough not to notice, it could be problematic for Pokémon Unite to have characters rebalanced or reworked way too fast early on. If the game wants to change its poorer qualities, it needs to start on a good foot so that major reworks aren't urg
Battle Sled: A respawning sled appears in base that can be steered by the first player that climbs into it. Other allies can hitch a ride by jumping onto the sled and everyone will explode out upon colliding with terrain or an en
Whether players only want to try Nexus Blitz once or intend to spend the next month queuing up for as many matches as possible, the game mode is certainly quick and a different take on League of Legends . But in the end, its player retention during Spirit Blossom 2020 will ultimately determine if Nexus Blitz returns sooner or goes away for a much longer time ag
While Ruler may be the perfect AD Carry , Jackeylove is a highlight waiting to happen. The former World Champion joined Top Esports at the beginning of the year and was the spark that the team needed. His fearlessness led to a lot of TES victories, and the occasional int. He looks to earn his second World Championship and cement himself as one of League’s greatest AD Carr
Nexus Blitz was an experimental MOBA game Advanced tactics mode released during the summer of 2018 for several weeks and then briefly revived during the spring of 2019. Although Nexus Blitz was a favorite because of its short match length, data showed that playtime for the game mode dropped heavily by the end and Riot Games made the decision to pull the m
King of the Hill: An area on the map becomes marked and teams have to stay there long enough to win. Because of that condition, any champions with circular AOE or extreme damage within an area like Illaoi can swiftly kill a team just standing st
If the game drags out past the 15-minute mark, both Nexuses will become giant minions and walk towards the center of the map. During Sudden Death, respawn timers are massively reduced, and killing the enemy Nexus will immediately end the match. However, the Nexuses have received upgrades and can now gain a massive HP shield, knock enemy champions back towards their base, or periodically reduce incoming dam
The next League of Legends event is finally arriving after Pulsefire 2020 previously ended over a month ago. From July 22nd to August 24th, Spirit Blossom 2020 is a summer celebration that brings back missions, prizes, and the Nexus Blitz game mode for participating play
Bardle Royale (Paranoia): It's a bardle royale, but everyone has the nearsighted debuff and can only see what's close by. Champions with AOE skillshots like Brand and Vel'Koz can fire away until enemies inevitably get chunked or kil
The first former World Champion on the list, Ruler comes into the tournament as the best AD Carry in the world, and there’s very little debate. In a meta so dependent on dragon control, the importance of bot lane priority can not be understated. Ruler leads all AD Carries at the tournament with a 13 CS differential at 15 minutes. Finding flaws in his game is near impossible as he is virtually the perfect AD Ca
