How G2 Took Over the LEC

Tue, 08 Sep 2026 07:20:14 +0000

The Lego Batman Movie came next, taking one of the most memorable characters from the original and going 'full DC' with a whole cast of superheroes. Despite lacking the same box office clout as its predecessor, Lego Batman earned much praise from audiences, and comic book fans were especially impressed by the lighter, heartfelt take on the Caped Crusader. Unfortunately, that waning box office was a sign of things to come for Warner Bros.' Lego Cinematic Universe . The Lego Ninjago Movie followed shortly after Will Arnett's Dark (Yellow) Knight spin-off, but to much less fanfare and considerably lower revenue, perhaps paying the price for a more niche Lego concept. A direct sequel to the original, 2019's The Second Part , failed to reverse those fortunes and other planned projects were swiftly axed. More recently, the Lego company have shifted focus back to toys after their own dip in revenue and Warner Bros. lost the movie rights to Universal earlier this year. Turns out everything isn't awesome after

Not to be confused with Universal's Dark Universe (which failed, incidentally), the MonsterVerse is essentially a modern interpretation of the aforementioned Toho franchise that saw Godzilla and an array of other monsters do battle, usually in a surprisingly flimsy urban landscape. The franchise began with 2014's Godzilla reboot, and by purchasing the rights to various other Toho beasts, Warner Bros. signaled their intention to develop the lore of their MUTO world . However, the MonsterVerse only kicked off proper with Warner Bros.' involvement in Kong: Skull Island , a reboot of the titular gorilla's big screen st

• Armor changed from [4/6/8 per nearby champion] to [5 + .33~ per level] • [Removed] Magic resistance • [New] Now grants .5% max health regen per 5s • Armor and regen increase by 50% for 5 seconds whenever Wukong or his clone hit an enemy champion or large monster, stacking up to 10 times (up to [30-66] armor and 3% max health per 5 seconds) • Now checks for enemies every .25s instead of every

Ssumday also had a solid game during 100 Thieves' first game of the week against TSM, but couldn't manage to get the win alongside his struggling teammates. During week 5, Ssumday led all top laners in KDA (kill/death/assist ratio) with 6, while also managing to get a whopping 3 solo kills, cementing himself as one of the week's best players. Currently sitting in 6th place at 4-6, 100 Thieves will continue to count on Ssumday to be their driving force for the remaining half of the sea

Believe it or not, the Spring Split of the 2020 League of Legends Championship Series is already past its halfway point, and teams and players are starting to see themselves separate from the rest of the pack. Cloud9 leads the way, extending their dominant streak and continuing their quest for the coveted 18-0 undefeated season. Flyquest, now in sole possession of 2nd place, impresses once again and they now sit comfortably behind Cloud9 at 7-3. TSM continues to flip-flop between strong and shaky weeks, but the Bjergsen-led squad rounds out the top three at 6-4. As they and the rest of the players fight it out on the rift to distinguish themselves and their teams, some performances stood out from the r

Start putting points in Double Up until level eight or so then focus on Make It Rain, then switch to Strut at level 14. Movement speed isn’t as critical considering you’ll spend most of it tower farming. You want to get strong quickly and harass opponents in the early to mid-g

With a team composed of Wunder in the top lane, Jankos in the jungle, Caps in the mid lane and Perkz and Mikyx in the bot lane, G2 would find their old form. This roster, composed of faces both old and new, gelled together in a way that was previously unseen. Caps unlocked something, and the team started to win again. But this time, they weren't villains, they were her

FunPlus Phoenix, although still one of the most dangerous teams in the world, still have issues they need to iron out. They constantly make poor decisions, and their in-your-face, aggressive play backfired against teams who were ready for

After a series of roster shakeups and additions, notably Mateusz "Kikis" Szkudlarek in the jungle, Ocelote finally built a Gamers2 roster that would find success. Taking down SK Gaming in the promotion series, Gamers2 qualified for the 2016 EU LCS Spring Split. The team would later rebrand to G2 Esports following their qualificat

2019 marked the league's rebrand from the EU LCS to the LEC, the League of Legends European Championship. In their fourth year in the League Of Legends updates, G2 would drop the bombshell of the decade by signing former Fnatic mid laner Rasmus "Caps" Borregaar, and moving Perkz to the AD carry position. The team would go on to sign Mihael "Mikyx" Mehle as w

Cosmic and Dark Cosmic Lux are both Legendary skins that are variants of each other. Similar to Dawnbringer and Nightbringer Soraka, they are not package deals, but single skins each. Both cosmetics feature outer space vibes, black holes, and planetary aspects. The only difference is that Cosmic Lux consists of blue, white, and purple hues, while Dark Cosmic Lux is much warmer and features purple, pink, yellow, and orange shades. Both skins are legendary tiered cosmetics and will go for 1820 RP, which also makes it the last skin tier for Lux. And makes Lux the first champion to receive a skin in every skin t

What Happened To WB's FIVE Shared Universes

Mon, 07 Sep 2026 22:18:50 +0000

• [New] Now has a 275 range dash that can go over small walls • Stealth duration lowered from 1.5s to 1s • No longer does AOE magic damage on despawn. • Cooldown increased from 18/16/14/12/10 to 20/19/18/17/16 • Mana cost changed from 50/55/60/65/70 to 60 at all r

Flyquest has outperformed all exceptions this split, in large part due to their 22 year old German mid laner. Along with having the coolest name in the LCS, PowerOfEvil has led his team to four victories in a row. During week 5 he flexed his expansive champion pool, playing Orianna against Golden Guardians and Corki against Counter Logic Gaming, both firsts for him this split. PowerOfEvil was also the first player in the world to win a game as Corki this year. Immortals' Eika and DAMWON Gaming's ShowMaker in Korea were the only other players to use Corki, both losing their games on t he daring bombardier . As Flyquest looks to finish out the season strong, they will lean on PowerOfEvil to be a dominant force in the mid l

The league of legends Meta of Legends ' 10.6 Patch will deliver some anticipated skins for champions that haven't received cosmetics in ages. There's also some minor rebalancing for Twisted Fate and Death's Dance. Additionally, an entire Wukong rework will be making its way to League of Legends . That will hopefully put the Monkey King back on his thr

An unusual set of skins but still pretty cool. Taric Luminshield, Twitch Shadowfoot, and Talon Blackwood feature unique aspects that don't bundle them together as any particular skin line successor. Taric Luminshield, by the name, features light colors like gold, bright yellow, and silver. While Twitch and Talon go the other way with purple, silver, green, and gold tones. Each skin will cost 1350

A direct Conjuring sequel arrived in 2016, and a third ( The Devil Made Me Do It ) is currently set for release in September 2020, although that might change due to the current pandemic. Expanding on the lore of Ed and Lorraine Warren, however, The Conjuring also set up Annabelle . After the creepy doll first appeared in the Warrens' room of haunted curiosities, an Annabelle spin-off released in 2014 and has since spawned 2 further sequels. Further diving into The Conjuring 's lore, The Nun premiered in 2018 and starred the demonic villain seen previously, while The Crooked Man is set to do something similar with its own title character. Elsewhere, The Curse of La Llorona is confirmed to exist within The Conjuring 's universe thanks to an appearance by Tony Amendola's Father Perez and several fan-made short films have been enshrined into the same rapidly-growing ca

Moreover, standard mechanics such as scouting and scrolling the map might need practice for PC players. After all, instead of using a mouse scroll, players need to click parts of the map on the screen. Unfortunately, this caveat opens players to the risk of accidentally clicking random butt

While it might not have been the first, the Marvel Cinematic Universe spearheaded by Kevin Feige and now under the ownership of Disney has refined the formula for a modern audience. Beginning with Iron Man in 2008 and exploding thanks to The Avengers 4 years later, the MCU pumps out multiple movies per year, almost all of which have garnered considerable critical and commercial success. Seeing the success Marvel Studios were enjoying, rival studios clamored to adopt the shared universe approach, but many of these pretenders have since fallen by the ways

How G2 Took Over the LEC

Mon, 07 Sep 2026 07:23:55 +0000

Fnatic cleanly swept them 3-0 and won the 2018 Spring Split. The European fan-favorites would win again during the Summer 0f 2018, while G2 suffered an early exit from the Summer playoffs at the hands of Misfits in the quarterfinals. Despite the somewhat disappointing 2018 Spring and Summer Splits, G2 secured themselves a spot to compete in the 2018 World Champions

Adding more about his mechanical skills, aphromoo said, "It’s important to have hands and God bless Johnsun, he’s got the hands. But other than that, he plays very well himself.

After just recently sweeping Fnatic in the 2020 Spring Finals, G2 has now tied their rival for most European titles of all time. What Fnatic did in six years, G2 did in just over four. There is no doubt who the real kings of Europe are. But, the team's goals go past winning their region. G2 Esports want to win Wor

Despite the team's seemingly never-ending inconsistencies, the Dignitas bot lane has been a glimmer of hope for fans of the franchise.

G2's 2018 spring was inconsistent at best, but they managed to finish the split in 2nd place, behind Fnatic. Despite finishing outside of the top spot for the first time ever, G2 managed to make the Spring finals where they'd play Fnatic to defend their title, and try for their fifth straight champions

Following their poor MSI finish, that 2016 summer saw drastic changes to the G2 roster with the departures of Kikis and Emperor, and the arrivals of Jesper "Zven" Svenningsen and Alfonso "Mithy" Aguirre Rodríguez. Zven and Mithy previously composed the powerful bot lane duo from fan-favorite xPeke's Origen that G2 took down in the LCS finals just a few months prior. Armed with their shiny new bot lane, Perkz and the rest G2 marched into the 2016 Summer Split with high expectati

When asked if he thinks Clash has helped with any of the issues in solo queue, Aphromoo laughed and said, "No, I’ve never played Clash in my life man." The support added his thoughts about solo queue, saying, "But, even though solo queue still sucks man, I still play it anyway. It’s the only type of practice you can do by yourself. There’s nothing else besides in-houses but once teams start actually practicing, no one wants [to play solo queue] n

Just two weeks into the LCS, fans have been able to watch aphromoo play four different supports in four games. The veteran has so far played Leona, Lulu, Bard and Thresh. Despite Dignitas' ugly 0-4 start to the split, aphromoo alongside his AD carry Johnsun "Johnsun" Nguyen have performed well in the bot l

Godzilla: King of the Monsters duly followed in 2019 and fully cracked open the doors of the MonsterVerse, introducing Mothra, Ghidorah and numerous other Titans waiting in the wings, of which Kong was one. In both critical and commercial terms, King of the Monsters was afforded a more lukewarm response in comparison to the previous 2 entries in the series, but Warner Bros. and Legendary are pressing ahead with their scheduled showdown between Kong and Godzilla none the less. The fate of the MonsterVerse likely hinges entirely on the performance of Godzilla vs. Kong later this year; the upcoming clash could elevate the cinematic universe in the same way The Avengers did for the MCU, but if there's no significant improvement upon King of the Monsters , it's hard to see the franchise continuing further. As things stand, however, the MonsterVerse has generally proved successful for Warner Bros . and could yet become a leading cinematic unive

Similar to the Animal Crossing: New Horizons delay, the PS5 and Xbox Series X are both manufactured in China, and with a lot of manufacturing grinding to a halt, this could effect the availability of the systems when they launch later this year. The extent of what these manufacturing delays might mean is still yet to be seen, as neither Sony nor Microsoft has come out to address any delays they may be currently suffering from. As a result, this might be a similar situation to the launch of the Nintendo Switch, which saw consoles flying off the shelf faster than the company could hope to stock t

The Lego Movie was a big hit for Warner Bros. in 2014. Taking Emmet (voiced by Chris Pratt ) through a colorful brick world and encompassing characters from a multitude of franchises and brands, the long-awaited debut of the Danish toy company on the big screen was enjoyed by adults and kids alike. Once again, this success set off the shared universe alarm at Warner Bros. HQ and it wasn't long before a direct sequel and a multitude of spin-offs were green

"Inevitable." Not many teams in the world have the prowess to be described as "inevitable." In the realm of competitive League of Legends , G2 Esports exist in a class of their own. Since joining the league back in the spring of 2016, the European juggernauts have towered over the rest of the region, winning seven out of the league's nine titles, tying Fnatic for the most of all t

This is more of an experimental build that really struggles in the early game, but can be very annoying for the enemy in the mid to late-game.

As mentioned, all champions begin at level 1 at the start of each match. Leveling in a game can provide perks like more HP, MP, movement speed and defense. In order to level up. champions will need to defeat enemies or kill opponent champions. Also going to jungle camps and killing there is another way to gain levels. They will also drop gold that can be used to upgrade specific stats and unlock abilities. The max level players can reach in a single game is

The Biggest League of Legends Offseason Roster Moves of 2020

During week 5 he flexed his expansive champion pool, playing Orianna against Golden Guardians and Corki against Counter Logic Gaming, both firsts for her explanation him this split.

As Flyquest looks to finish out the season strong, they will lean on PowerOfEvil to be a dominant force in the mid l

Pulsefire is a futuristic skin line that first debuted in 2012 with the Ultimate skin "Pulsefire Ezreal." More champions like Caitlyn, Riven, and Thresh would get these skins in following years and the lore was developed into a universe where time travel is common. As part of Riot's latest plans for events , Pulsefire 2020 also brings back Pick URF for a month and has a variety of missions with their own rewa

In a game of League of Legends, there are 1 of 5 roles players can take on, each with their own function in-game. These are what each role can accomplish. It's recommended to try each roll to find what fits comfortably with the player. Also, as its a team-based game, it's important to consider what role is needed for the team to succeed in bat

This build sets you up to evaporate your foes with great timing and a one-shot ultimate. The key to this build is to obliterate foes with that one hit or you’re going to die quickly when they recover. Dark Harvest, Cheap Shot, and Coup De Grace help with the one-shot, and Ravenous Hunter helps you stay alive until you can use

With the season just halfway through, it can be argued that all five Cloud9 members are worthy of winning the Spring Split MVP. Each of them are dominating in their own way, but perhaps none are more deserving than Zven. Playing excellent both mechanically and mentally, Zven along with his support Vulcan have dominated the bot lane this season, and week 5 was no different. Zven played an excellent Varus against CLG, who Cloud9 unsurprisingly beat. What was surprising, however, was Cloud9's choice of bot lane in their second game against Immortals. Zven actually played "support" Senna, while Vulcan went Tahm Kench, acting as the "carry." This is a strategy similar to what Dignitas Academy employed in their matchup against Golden Guardians Academy, where AD carry Fenix went Senna and support Olleh went Galio. Fenix "supported" Olleh as he farmed with Ga

Not believing that they needed a revamping of their roster, Team Liquid opted for a change at the coaching position instead. Jatt has been around the game longer than anybody, and his game knowledge rivals that of any pro player. No one has as much of a passion for League of Legends than Jatt, but will he be able to turn the team around? Team Liquid will be counting on their new coach to wake up their struggling roster and only time will tell if he'll be able

Running from May 14th to June 15th, the event has much to offer for those playing through

Top Esports mid laner Zhuo "knight" Ding's performance in the Mid-Season Cup was nothing short of brilliant. The twenty-year-old on Corki, despite losing both games on the champion, popped off, even winning teamfights single handedly to turn the tides of the games. Knight was able to get his hands on Syndra twice, before the champion, for all intents and purposes, became a perma-ban for his opposition due to his unrivaled skill on the Dark Sovere

Breaking Down The Crazy Few Days of League of Legends Roster Moves

Sun, 06 Sep 2026 11:09:58 +0000

The off season has matched the regular season in the lunacy department thus far. With the disappointing news of the Mid-Season Invitational's cancellation , fans will have to wait until the Summer Split to see their favorite teams play again, and until Worlds to see any international competition. So how exactly have teams been shaping up to prepare for the next half of the season? Here's a breakdown of the biggest roster moves to happen so

G2's first game in the LCS was on January 14th, 2016. Following the departure of SmittyJ and Jesse, G2 added Kim "Trick" Gang-yun and Kim "Emperor" Jin-hyun to play in the jungle and bottom lane. Still led by Kikis and Perkz (although no longer with a capital "z"), the fresh young team faced off against Elements and former Gamers2 mid laner Eika, in their first LCS g

When the event starts, players will get free access to a series of 20 Pulsefire missions. These challenges have a main objective or an alternate condition of just playing a certain number of matches. Once a mission is completed, it will unlock the next one in line and this continues until all 20 are finished. All missions reward 12 Pulsefire Tokens except for the first one which also gives a "Pulsefire Core" Summoner I

The organization's roster is still pretty similar to the one that won those four titles. Along with Tactical, the only different face is Mads "Broxah" Brock-Pedersen, who replaced Jake "Xmithie" Puchero in the jungle before the 2020 Spring Split. Team Liquid is still the stacked roster they were before, and Tactical's potential to become a homegrown star is a positive sign for the franch

It's an unfortunate situation for Kobbe, who took a major risk leaving his home to play in North America. It's currently unknown where the AD carry will wind up. He would usually have no issue finding another team, but with COVID-19, organizations are low on funds, and bringing in new players is an extremely difficult task with travel restricitions in pl

After what felt like an incredibly long offseason, these past few days have been chock-full of excitement for League of Legends fans around the globe.

This offseason has definitely had its fun and crazy moments, but fans are ready to watch their teams get back to the action. With the Summer Split set to kick-0ff mid June, League of Legends fans will have to wait on the edge of their seats until t

"No one wants to pick up Dardoch, that's not my fault." In what was perhaps the most talked-about news in League of Legends this year, Team SoloMid president Leena Xu's controversy with Yiliang "Doublelift" Peng and Joshua "Dardoch" Hartnett caused an explosion in the community when Leena was overheard on Doublelift's stream saying in a phone call that now-infamous series of words. Well, it turns out she was wrong, as the twenty-two-year-old jungler became the latest player to sign with Digni

In Evil Geniuses' first split back in the LCS, they made waves by signing high profile players in reigning MVP Dennis "Svenskeren" Johnsen, former Team Vitality mid-laner Daniele "Jiizuke" di Mauro and Bae "Bang" Jun-sik, who won two World Championships back when he was a part of SKT T1 in 2015 and 2016. The team also added former Cloud9 youngsters Tristan "Zeyzal" Stidam and Colin "Kumo" Zhao. Despite looking inconstant at times, EG finished the split in 3rd place, losing to Flyquest in the semi-fin

G2 lost their first four games at MSI, ultimately coming in second to last place and missing the playoffs entirely. This was devastating not only to G2, but to Europe as a whole, as this placement meant that the region would miss out on a Pool 1 Seed at Worlds. In regards to their poor play, the organization hastily put out a statement halfway through day two of the event, explaining how the team had taken vacation time after a "rigorous Spring Split." SKT would go on to win MSI, with Faker receiving

This should be made into a skin today. If you aren’t aware, there is an Amumu skin named Emumu which once featured similar splash art.

Dump points into Reap in early game, a few into Terrify mid-game, and then a bunch into Bountiful Harvest at level 14. The idea is to use your scarecrow wards to keep tabs on enemies to prevent them from getting objectives done and making progress.

After the creepy doll first appeared in the Warrens' room of haunted curiosities, an Annabelle spin-off released in 2014 and has since spawned 2 further sequels.

At the moment, this is still hearsay, as no event was announced and Sony hasn't commented on exactly what reveals may have been delayed as a result of the convention's delay. It is entirely possible that we've already seen the effects of this delay, with Final Fantasy 7 Remake 's new trailer dropping suddenly online as opposed to being revealed at a press event. With that being said, while it may have been a strong business tactic to reveal the system at Taipei, with worldwide coverage reaching close to the huge Chinese gaming market, Sony will likely be holding the PS5 announcement in a more private venue in the fut

This is how surprises like The Outer Worlds Switch port delay can happen as a result of the Coronavirus, even though the development studio, Obsidian Entertainment, is located in California.

Similar in style to the MCU and DCEU, the Arthurian series would've comprised solo films for various famed characters of legend and built towards a crossover team-up against a major villain. Audiences and critics, however, sensed that trying to hammer a centuries-old story of knights and vikings into the en-vogue superhero format of the day was bottom-of-the-barrel stuff, and King Arthur 's fortunes weren't helped by an almost invisible marketing presence that meant the release passed most movie-goers by. Unfortunately, those who did witness Legend of the Sword were largely unimpressed with the film's sequel setup, erratic pace and weird David Beckham cameo . Generally considered one of Ritchie's weaker efforts , King Arthur: Legend of the Sword might've fared better without the weight of a further 5 films lingering in the dista

10 Things We Wish We Knew Before Starting Dota Underlords

Fri, 04 Sep 2026 08:59:08 +0000

All this seems to indicate that the sun is setting on the Multiplayer Online Battle Arena. The latest genre to sweep the gaming world is the battle royale, which rose to prominence in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and Fortnite . Other games are adding battle royale modes to their multiplayer options, while games like Apex Legends add battle-arena-like special abilities to the battle royale form

Take Gragas’ bodyslam ability for example. It is one of these dash abilities that moves a player quickly. Except it does more in the sense that it can dash through terrain including solid rock walls. Where are the phys

Now having said that the game is forgiving to losers doesn’t mean it’s a good strategy to lose. An argument could be made for gold farming in the beginning, but other than that it’s typically in your best interest to win every round you fight

Marvel fans are eagerly anticipating the next Spider-Man movie, especially since it once looked as if the wall-crawler was being completely cut out of the MCU. There's also a fair bit of hype surrounding Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder , which will have Natalie Portman's Jane Foster pick up the hammer. Black Widow is generating interest as well, but there's a feeling from some that the movie has come too l

Two movies in particular, Shang-Chi and Eternals , certainly turned heads when they were announced, and not necessarily because they've been in high demand. On the contrary, both are lesser-known properties whose titular characters only have a limited presence in the comics. Neither have the name recognition of an A-list hero or team. Shang-Chi and Eternals lack the popularity of their fellow MCU her

The biggest change is the addition of a win condition. Either team could destroy the opposing base to claim victory, but they can also just get 60 kills. The idea, I imagine, is to stop that endgame drag that always happens in close matches. Both sides hunker down in their bases, carefully turning back creep tides and maybe jungling. But mostly they play it safe, retreating the moment a team fight seems to be going bad. It's tedious, boring, and only amplifies post-match toxicity because the stalemate usually ends when someone gets antsy and gives up a team fight. In Genesis, you can play it safe all you want but one side will eventually get 60 kills. In theory. In my 6-7 hours of play this only happened once. That match still went on a little too long. So while the ultimatum does pressure teams to actually push lanes, it isn't a complete cure for turtl

DOTA was an overnight success after its introduction, and soon DOTA became as much a reason to play competitive Warcraft III as the base game itself. DOTA became a fixture of several international eSports tournaments, and their designers would go from being mere hobbyists to professional game developers. One key player named "IceFrog" would get hired by Valve to develop Dota2 , while Steve "Guinsoo" Feak and Steve "Pendragon" Mescon would move to create Riot Games and their breakout title, League of Legen

Part of the original lore of the game dealt with how certain champions were bound to the league. Essentially, their power was held by the league. This allowed them to remain bound, such as Nocturne, and allowed their powers to scale back and forth between battles universa

Dota2 wasn't far behind. The game was released from open beta in July 2013 and quickly climbed the Steam charts, surpassing longtime standbys like Team Fortress 2 and Counter-Strike (although CS:GO would later regain its title as most popular game on the digital platform). At the time of its release, Dota2 had over 520,000 concurrent players. By January of 2014, Dota2 had over 738,000 players, and by February of 2016, Dota2 had peaked at 1,291,328 concurrent play

Some items have effects that benefit you as the player, such as the Friends and Family Discount item which drops the price of all units by one gold.

MOBA skills guide (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) was once that genre in gaming. League of Legends was bringing in big money, Dota 2 was a force in esports, and copycats were springing up all over the place. In truth, that hasn't really changed. Sure, everyone is streaming battle royale and auto chess now, but MOBA is still alive and well. League of Legends keeps paying Riot's bills, and Dota 2 still brings in those __ huge prize pools . The copycats have slowed somewhat as developers flock to make auto chess games. The goal for MOBA developers now seems to be to tap into empty markets. That's probably the inspiration behind Genesis , a new MOBA exclusive to P

Though OG didn’t find consistent Dota 2 success throughout 2019, one player among their ranks powered them to victory at the biggest tournament of the year. Then-19-year-old Anathan "ana" Pham returned to OG in March after an extended hiatus. With ana back on the roster, OG began their climb back to peak form. They qualified for the MDL Disneyland Paris Major, and placed 5-6th at the main event. They then competed in ESL One Birmingham and the EPICENTER Major, placing 7-8th at both tournaments. The International 2019 arrived, and OG immediately exerted their dominance over their group stage opponents. To much surprise, ana played Io, traditionally a support hero, in the carry position. With that out-of-the-box pick, OG were able to top the group stage and secure a play-offs upper bracket berth. OG then took down Evil Geniuses, PSG.LGD, and Team Liquid to become the first team to ever win The International tw

Anthem is taking advantage of its sibling status to the beloved Mass Effect series in its Season of Skulls Halloween event.

The Season of Skulls will also be a bit of a lore drop, with a fog gathering around Fort Tarsis and "intriguing secrets" scattered throughout

This is a bit different than the situation with the MCU. Several of DC's films are generating more enthusiasm than Shang-Chi and Eternals . Of course, this doesn't mean that either of these film will fail or be any less successful than DC's movies. If Marvel has proved anything with Ant-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy , it's that it knows how to make millions with C and D-list characters. Shang-Chi and Eternals could easily be huge box office hits. Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige believes that a movie like Eternals is worth the risk . The idea here is that Marvel is putting quality over popularity. It remains to be seen if this will pay off. Regardless, as it stands, DC's upcoming movie slate is succeeded in creating the most buzz. How well that will translate to box office numbers is another mat

It's been an altogether different story for DC. Though they did get off to a good start with Man of Steel , Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice wasn't the hit DC was expecting, nor was it received well by critics. Suicide Squad performed well at the box office, but garnered a lukewarm critical response. Wonder Woman , on the other hand, was a huge critical and commercial success, and was the first sign that DC didn't have to rely solely on Batman and Superman anymore. That being said, things didn't turn around for DC — at least not yet. Its next movie, Justice League , was its biggest movie to date — and its biggest failure. Justice League was declared a disaster . Things have improved since then, and DC has managed to build what may prove to be an exciting list of movies to be released over the next three ye

How you choose to construct a deck is in your hands entirely. However, in the earliest stages of beta, a simple tempo-oriented zoo deck will be one of the strongest options simply because players are learning what exactly is going on, and zoo ensures that there is always a focus on having and maintaining board control in the early and mid game. For the unfamiliar with the concept of zoo, check out Trump's video below. It is four years old, but the concept remains unchanged in virtually all C

League of Legends has entered its ninth season and is still as popular as ever. With the season officially underway, everyone is looking to climb the ladder and advance their rank.

That may seem like a defeatist attitude, but it's a simple matter of playing the numbers.

While being the third party in a gunfight is obviously an ideal situation to be in, there are a few finer points to pulling it off that often go ignored, often with disastrous results. The most important point to mention is timing. Observing and waiting until one squad has won the initial fight is key, as the surviving combatants will likely be inju

Still, I miss the accuracy of a mouse for skill shots. The characters don't quite have the charm of Ahri, Rumble, or any of my other LoL mains. I find their voice acting annoying, and their 3D models don't quite live up to their art. I don't see myself dropping cash for skins. In the end, I think I just want to scratch the MOBA Ranked guide itch I've been ignoring for years. Genesis definitely does that, and will do so for any curious PS4 owners. It also doesn't require PS Plus, which is a... plus. Give it a shot as your first MOBA, or first MOBA in years. If you have a PC, however, stick to the class

Genesis has a top-down view, mid goes solo, bottom duos, and hopefully someone jungles. Thankfully, every champion has the ability to teleport to friendly towers. There's a cooldown, of course, but it's still nice to have that ability not locked to a summoner spell. The shop is also available everywhere, not just at base. This all seems designed to expedite the laning phase. There's even an option to begin with your character at level four.

In 2014, the story was revamped, erasing the established lore and replacing it with various mini-stories that weren’t necessarily connected and did not always have direct cohesion with the game itself.

Before I talk Genesis gameplay , I feel like I have to share my MOBA experience. My street cred, if you will. I played a lot of LoL during its heyday, and made it a point to collect all of the Ahri and Rumble skins. When ranked was first introduced, I grouped up with four friends and tried to take on the world. We fought hard just to stay in Gold Rank. We once experimented with Dota 2 , which I enjoyed but also too complex to stick with. After the team dissolved, I played Smite briefly. With this in mind, I feel rather confident in saying that Genesis plays like an easier League of Legen

Still, esports is often treated like one entity. In reality, individual games play out more like anthologies—unconnected by the umbrella term that defines them. Like a thin layer of algae on the surface of an abandoned pool, esports as a title masks the diverse ecosystem that exists beneath the surface, suffocating its variety and preventing outsiders from getting in the water. Even if you are a huge fan of one title, other games remain largely uninteresting and impossible to watch. As a result, can anyone really call themselves a fan of espo

For instance, coverage of a battle royale is going to be drastically more complex than a game like Mortal Kombat and completely different than moba news coverage. Asking one entity to develop the infrastructure to cover all games is quite a reach. This leaves developers in charge of covering their own events and lets them dictate how they set up tournaments, pay athletes, and cover the events. Could there ever really be a unified esports community under this system? Probably not. This means a lack of regulation, consistency, and viewership will always be an industry-wide conc

Dota 2 , like all MOBA games, pits two teams against each other on a map that is often symmetrical in its layout. In this case, each team is composed of five players each who win the match by destroying the opposing team’s Ancient building before they can destroy yours, and as one might expect, this is located as far into enemy territory as can

Now, it’s a fully-fledged social network in the making. I’ve long followed LambdaGeneration, so I was ecstatic when they reached out to me about an interview for the new initative. This group has always been the go-to place to find what the community is up to, or to uncover hidden gems - a new resource like this is a total game-changer.

PUBG suffers from the fact that the players who loved it at launch have stuck with it. Normally, this isn't a negative at all, showing that a game can harbor a solid community — but for newcomers, this can be intimidating. Luckily, PUBG lobbies are filled with bots early on, allowing newcomers to get the feel of the game and the unique gunplay. Unfortunately, these bots are spliced with players that never put the game down, so sometimes, newcomers will be deleted by someone who's simply bet

The Skeleton Knife in Urban Masked looks simple and allows you to appreciate the design and shape of the knife itself. The knife has a hole in the middle of it between the handle and blade, making it one of the most interesting weapon designs to date.

The above points come as little surprise. The longer one has spent on a single game account, the less likely they are to be outright cheating due to the cheat detection systems and the issuing of VAC-bans for those who are caught. If one has several hundred or thousands of hours in a game, it is fair to say they enjoy playing and likely are not cheating relative to an account with only a few hours of playt

"The Half-Life community is one of the most creative and talented gaming communities out there," the founder of LambdaGeneration - who simply goes by "Alex" online - tells me. "Some of the stuff we cover just blows my mind. Whether it’s a group of people spending almost two decades recreating the original game in a modern engine or someone spending three months on a fan film, I am always taken aback by the sheer dedication people have for the series."

With a much-needed break coming this month, My plan is to first and foremost put some serious time into Skyrim . As an RPG fan, that's the game at the top of my list, but only slightly ahead of Uncharted 3, Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3 , finishing Gears of War 3 and Halo Anniversary . Of course, i'll have to get those out of the way before Star Wars: The Old Republic . I've never been a big MMO player, but this one might just do it. If nothing else, this dose of BioWare storytelling will tide me over until Mass Effect

This raises the question, what is the better peripheral for Minecraft? It can definitively be said that a keyboard and mouse combination is far superior. It makes Minecraft's controls more complicated, but the changes are well worth

As one of the oldest and most storied maps in competitive Counter-strike 2 walkthrough history, Jo Bieg's creation in BETA 4.0 of the original Counter-Strike mod has seen iterations and remakes across every single game. Needless to say, Nuke is iconic and up there with the likes of Inferno and Dust II. Due to its reputation, it was the second map to receive a significant revision to not only update the aesthetic but also resolve issues that have persisted for ye

The title is pretty self-explanatory, as you play an average-joe-turned-freedom-fighter as the Soviet Union vies to 'liberate' America. You lead a rag-tag group of citizens through a quest to halt the invasion no matter what the odds - the storyline was great, the level design well-done, and the soundtrack phenomenal and very memora

With the beginning of December comes two things: the end of overwhelming amount holiday video game releases and the holidays itself, which effectively means that gamers everywhere will be spending time catching up on their backlog. There are still a handful of games releasing this month, but it is nothing at all like what we've seen in October and November and because of this the Game Guide has made a significant change for this edition - we will not only be detailing the games we'll be playing this month but the ones we're looking forward to next year as w

One of these is its CT-sided nature, which is likely what Nuke is most known for. While it was always a popular map despite this reputation, the casual and professional scene responded very positively to the changes. While many would argue it remains largely CT-sided, strong teams, structured or not, have options to be effective on the T-side creating a nice balance. Nuke remains in the Top 3 to 4 most-played maps in both casual and competitive pl

Most people would even go as far as to say that The Elder Scrolls is a great keyboard and mouse learning game. If players have never tried the keyboard and mouse, and they're itching to play a role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls is appealing. It doesn't have too many key bindings to make it needlessly complica

As one of the few maps created by Valve, Ancient was released on December 3, 2020, as part of Operation Broken Fang. It wouldn't be until May 3, 2021, when the map was moved to the active map pool replacing Train. While Train was a well-liked and balanced map to the CS:GO community, there was some sentiment that it did start to feel a bit stale despite being one of the first maps to be reworked. This was apparent in the decline in pick rate at the professional level, but especially in casual play which is likely the cause for the remo
