Everfrost, at the start of the season, was arguably the worst mythic option for mages. Its stats were designed as a tankier alternative, replacing Hextech-GLP and Rod of Ages, but very few champs could utilize its slow, ineffective active ability. After some buffs, it's underused but quite power
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
Beyond a recolor, the emote was doubly hilarious since it now has Nautilus literally swimming through space in a spacesuit. The skin also has a reactive helmet that makes a cute face when Nautilus laughs. Though the skin received a graphical update in 2015, it remains pretty much the same as it was at lau
Score was afflicted by the "second place curse" as it was generally called. This became a meme because, for many years when competing in the LCK, Score would end in second. Luckily for him, the curse was broken in 2018. After that moment of hard-earned success, the player retired in 2
Though written as a Dream Daddy character, the skin is more fearsome than its origins might suggest. The particle effects are also quite choice and fans just vibed with this aesthetic from the get-go. Along with Thresh's many other fantastic skins, this stands out as one of the cool
Even with an ability or trinket that can reveal stealthed traps, opponents still have the task of avoiding the poisonous mushrooms throughout the narrow paths of the Jungle. This can often mean having to take alternative routes, or being chased straight into one of the traps. Always be on guard when Teemo's aro
Being both a Marksman and Assassin means Teemo can dish out a lot of damage and stay largely undetected, with his abilities allowing him to turn invisible in and out League of Legends updates the brush, blind his enemies, and deal magic damage over time. He's not among the easiest low-rank carry champions, but he can have a tremendous impact on a match, a fact immortalized by meme-mak
Along with Primetime Draven -- another fan-favorite, Forecast Janna whirled straight into the hearts of fans. The skin release came at a great time for Janna, too, in terms of her placement in competitive meta. She used to be one of the go-to supports for many professional te
This roster of IG is noteworthy for playing the game with a fight-first mentality aiding in coining the term "LPL Aggression" by analysts and casters. The ultimate caveat of Invictus Gaming winning this world title is that they had virtually no path of resistance past defeating tournament favorites, KT Rolster, in the quarterfin
Another item that's received buffs to its weak early state, Stridebreaker had a rough time breaking through. Goredrinker was previously in an overpowered state, and most bruisers would simply go for the superior option. With nerfs to Goredrinker, Stridebreaker has risen as an alternative that's arguably super
In the same vein as Arcade Sona and subsequent skins in this line, Arcade Hecarim had new animations, particle effects, and sounds. Though the horse reaper doesn't get as much play as he used to, the skin remains one of the coolest Riot has ever released. However, Hecarim's not the only horse in the game
Jumping into the game for the first time can feel daunting for many players, especially those who are new to the MOBA genre. That being said, players with experience in DOTA or Heroes of the Storm won't have an easy transition either. Simple gameplay mistakes are easily avoided, though, once the player knows the basics of Leag
Because of his legendary skills, people used to say that the MiG on his tag didn't stand for the name of the team (Maximum Impact Game) but for Madlife is God. Unlike many esports athletes, he prefers to be called by his full name, Hong Min-gi, instead of by MadL
The Worlds winning roster consisted of Nuguri, Canyon, ShowMaker, newcomer Ghost, and Beryl. DAMWON Gaming only dropped three games in the entire tournament; not to mention they had only lost twice in the LCK Summer Split including Playoffs. After 2 years of defeat, Korean dominance had returned in full force for the 2020 champions
The affectionately nicknamed "rainbow pony" released in 2013 for 1350 RP and saw tons of love when it first came out. The Guitar Hero style weapon paired with the mecha-rainbow unicorn design was a total home run with LoL play
They managed to fix whatever issues they had going into the quarterfinals because, from that point on, they were winning. Anchored by Mid Laner Doinb and his counter-meta picks, the team defeated G2 in the finals with a 3 - 0 sweep. This meant that Chinese teams took home consecutive championships. FunPlus Pheonix took out historic franchises on their rise to the top,
