Speaking of Death Prophet, players may be frustrated to hear that the character has received another round of nerfs following changes only recently. Apart from his starting speed reduced from 315 to 310, Exorcism now provides a movement speed bonus of 16/18/20%, down from 20% at all times, and the mana cost at all levels is now 50 more than before. The character will likely continue to see play, but mostly by diehard fans, and we hope this is the last round of nerfs the character is subjected to rece

The next League of Fontaine Local 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

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

Unfortunately, the amount of diversity that’s possible leads to quite a bit of discourse, and there are few things that consistent top laners will agree on. If you find yourself disagreeing on the level of an aggravated Groundskeeper Willie , though, it’s recommended that you take a break and drink some water inst

In addition, Azir’s difficulty arises when players consider his skillset that primarily deals with minion control. W – Arise! allows him to summon untargetable Sand Soldiers which can attack enemies for him. He can reposition them with Q – Conquering Sands, and E – Shifting Sands to move towards them. Lastly, his Ult – Emperor’s Divide lets Azir call a team of soldiers to attack enemies and form a wall for a short durat

A classic alternative to your standard ability-power focused champion in the mid lane, Zed has consistently been a thorn in everyone’s side since his release all the way back in 2012. With better team fight capabilities than an Akali and superior scaling to even some AP champs, Zed has an impressive ban rate of about ~

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

Players will recognize both components of Yone’s passive, as they can be seen in practice with Sett and Yasuo. Sett shares the capability to deal increased damage on every second hit of his auto attacks, and Yasuo also has doubled crit-chance. This should make Yone’s hybrid passive feel very familiar to players who have frequented both of his predecess

Yone’s Q is also remarkably similar to that of his brother Yasuo. This ability, like Yasuo’s “Steel Tempest,” is a straight-line skillshot that deals instant damage based on Yone’s attack damage and functions much like a buffed up auto-attack. The differences between the two character’s abilities lie in the third consecutive strikes. Unlike Yasuo, Yone’s third use of his Q is a knock-up attached to a dash. This means that Yone’s ability to chase enemies down is much more reliable than his counterpart. An additional bonus is that Yone can freely dash over walls to chase or escape from an en

There is a lot to take apart from this meme, as it showcases a lot of the confusing mechanics of the top lane. The first is Mordekaiser, who’s hit a new height of popularity thanks to a full rework of his abilities. For those that haven’t played the game lately, his new ultimate will suck an opponent into a void for a one-on-one duel, making for an intimidating unique challe

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

The top lane has changed drastically in the past few years, much thanks to a greater diversity of archetypes that can fit into each role. While the top lane used to be mostly populated by heavy tanks, this meme successfully illustrates how some of the game’s best current top laners are vicious fighters with an alarming amount of speed and dam

Caitlyn might seem squishy for an ADC. After all, Caitlyn serves as the Champion with the longest range in the entire game, surpassed only by some in the late game. Either way, despite her simple skillset, Caitlyn can deal damage from afar without worrying about her saf
