Stridebreaker dashes the user forward 300 units, dealing damage in an AoE that also applies a significant slow. For bruisers and juggernauts, this item active is a blessing from the heavens. They gain an extra gap closer and a free slow to stick on their targets. Combos are made easier to execute and ranged toplaners finally have to play the lane instead of cheating it. It might even be too powerful at the time of writing, but that remains to be s
Players can also more effectively chase down enemies if they use Blood Rush correctly. While it can be tempting to charge straight ahead at the enemy, players should actually wait right before the ax lands in front of them to catch it. If they immediately press W as soon as possible, the speed boost they get will negate any of the waiting time they took. It takes a bit of practice to get this bizarre movement tech to work efficiently, but it's absolutely worth
Pings are also great for seizing opportunities that no one else sees, for example, when 3 enemy champions are dead and the player's team can capture the boss. It might feel annoying, but it's the best way to communicate with teammates aside from voice c
A common question that is often asked by current League of Legends players is whether or not they can connect their PC and mobile accounts. The answer is both yes and no as you can connect them in the literal sense, but none of your stats or champions will crosso
It should be obvious, but competitive gamers often need to be reminded of one simple fact: being uncooperative and aggressive towards teammates is the quickest path to defeat. Remember that the team functions as a unit and that while teammates might be on different skill levels, that's not an excuse to be toxic towards th
Most of the game is spent outside of team fights, which might come as a surprise to new players. Many competitive games focus solely on a good kill/death ratio, or pitch players against each other in fast-paced combat. Understanding that League of Legends is a blend of PvP and long-term strategy is key to avoiding simple mista
This allows players to have more control over the axe but also guarantees more damage. Players can force the enemy champion to take two hits if they immediately recall the weapon the moment it strikes them. It takes good timing, but veteran Draven players make sure to learn this vital skill with their ultim
People all over the world enjoy League of Legends on PC as it is free-to-play and runs decently even on most toasters. But this game is not a port of the traditional PC League of Legends. Rather, it is a new mobile version of the ga
FunPlus Phoenix completely overhauled their roster going into the 2019 season by adding Doinb and Tian to the team. The new roster consisted of GimGoon, Tian, Doinb, LWX, and Crisp who absolutely dominated the LPL in their first year together as a team. Going into 2019 Worlds, FunPlus Pheonix had a relatively shaky group stage performance putting up a 4 - 2 rec
With a discerning eye and a determined stride, @keymini's Star Guardian Ezreal looks poised and ready to take on the World Atlas League. The cosplay's gold trim is particularly striking, as the coloration is galactic in nature and speaks to the cosmic motif associated with the line of sk
The one, the only, the Moonstone Renewer. This item is the opposite of exciting, on the surface. Other items create impressive AoE effects, or amplify damage, or allow users to gain a second wind during a long fight. They create more damage numbers, and that's great. However, the Moonstone Renewer exists to fight back against damage by making it look like it never happe
While Riot Games has been under fire recently , their most popular title, League of Legends , is still going strong. It hits eight million concurrent players a day, which is absolutely mind-blowingly high numbers compared to most games. Needless to say, League of Legends isn't going anywhere anytime s
This can be a great way to deal some serious damage in an ambush or even to snipe players entirely across the map if done right. It's incredibly impressive, but one of its best properties is how it can be recalled. Players can simply wait for the axe to come back, but if they press R a second time, it comes back instan
In the early season, Sunfire Aegis was by far the best tank mythic item. After several nerfs, the three tank items have become much closer in balance. Balanced stats means the items are evaluated based on their active abilities less than the raw numbers. For Turbo Chemtank, that active makes the i
League of Legends is essentially a game of attrition, at its core. The goal is not to take on opponents head-on, but rather to collect resources, XP, and slowly but surely crawl ahead of the enemy team. Each champion in the team takes their place in one of three lanes (or the jungle) and collects XP and gold from fallen enemy mobs while taking out that lane's defensive tow
