Gnar has been a mainstay in the top lane since his release in the summer of 2014, and many consider him to be the cutest of the Yordles, but appearances can be deceiving. When Gnar uses his ultimate he transforms into Mega Gnar, an angry behemoth who is capable of knocking back and slowing the entire enemy t
Skarner is a limited champion players don’t often pick. Despite the utility of his ultimate, the last rework Skarner got mostly only improved on his visuals. The introduction of the spire system was a novelty at best and the rest of his kit has a «turn your brain off» v
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
After being deemed worthy by the Arbiter, Tyari becomes «The Traveler,» and is the first confirmed transgender character within the League of Legend s canon, no longer using he/him pronouns. Like Cithria, this story serves to inspire and is very satisfying when learning of its conclusion. Tyari has traveled far to become the person she always knew that she
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
Spirit Blossom 2020 centers around the Ionian Spirit Blossom skins which are canon in League of Legends’ lore. After a brief tease during this year’s Anime Expo Lite stream, the skins were slowly revealed and culminated with a teaser video last week previewing Spirit Blossom’s themes. While veteran players should be familiar with the reward structure, there are several different elements compared to past eve
It is because of this transformation that Gnar would be a prime candidate for an Ultimate Skin, because if they give him a real dinosaur/prehistoric themed skin, he can swap between animals in a way that makes his ult truly uni
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
The next time players see the group of travelers is in «Mountain Scryer,» where only three of the travelers are present. This is reinforced in «Tyari the Traveler,» where once again there are only three travelers present, as Tyari is seen opening a portal. After a brief stop and a lesson from the «Mentor of the Stones,» voice line interactions between the Mentor and other cards reveal that the Mentor doesn’t see a future for the climbers Emir and Hal
Whenever Cho’Gath successfully eats something with his ultimate, his health increases along with his size, and when Riot released his Darkstar skin, it was noted that his appearance changed after several successful ults. With this in mind, Riot can offer players a variety of different looking Cho’Gath’s-similar to how the Lux and Miss Fortune Skins w
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
Once again, if we view the overall theme of 7.26 as an effort by Valve to slow down gameplay, many of the changes to heroes make perfect sense. For starters, Alchemist has seen Greedevil’s Greed cap reduced from 20/24/28/32 to 18/22/26/30, and the base gold bonus reduced from 4 to 3. This means that Alchemist is far less effective at farming in the new patch, but still in line with most other heroes of the same t
As one of the most talented bot laners in the MOBA game Builds, LokeN returned to his home of JD Gaming after a short stint with Top Esports. In his first split back, LokeN and his teammates defeated the very same Top Esports in China’s League of Legends Pro League Spring Finals, winning JD Gaming their first title as an organization. Paired with support Zuo «LvMao» Ming-Hao, JD Gaming’s strong bot lane makes them one of the favorites to win it all in 2
Xerath is also a ranged mage who has four skill shots, and based on the quality of the effects of his Guardian of the Sands and Darkstar skins, he is a perfect candidate for another Elementalist skin, or at the very least a similar skin that requires him to actually land his abilit
