Older players got to experience this item's power and know why it was quickly removed. Before the start of season three, Madred's Bloodrazor continues to dominate the rift. A very high-cost item but allows each basic attack to deal 4% of the target's maximum health as bonus magic damage. Pairing with a 40% attack speed makes this item extremely powerful. Primarily built on champions with AD, it allows them to destroy tanks who stack armor resist because of the bonus magic damage. Along with the odd stats it has, it wasn't easy to play against and is why it makes the l

Thanks to League of Legends , Riot Games manages to offer a unique multiplayer online battle arena (moba game guide) experience to the genre's fanbase. After all, fans who want a change of pace from Dota 2 can go to League for new heroes, fresh mechanics, and equally-intense battles. As such, it's no surprise how millions play the game online, with more newcomers arriving along the way. Moreover, its competitive esports scene motivates a lot of players to "go pro" and even start earning by joining competitions and showcasing their ski

The longtime G2 Esports top laner has played a major part in the juggernaut team winning four European titles in a row. Wunder showed off his impressive champion pool during the League of Legends European Championship Summer Playoffs, playing a total of 11champions throughout seventeen games. The Dane has cemented himself as one of the best players in Europe, as well as one of the best top laners in Worlds

As one of the most talented bot laners in the game, 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

In the returning Nexus Blitz game mode, there are bonus tasks for one specific Spirit Blossom champion during a random event that occurs every few minutes. Note that each one awards 3 favor upon completion for that champ

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

Although he may look like the ultimate inter at times, Nuguri’s playmaking skills and natural talent make him one of the most talented players in the world. Ever since DAMWON’s first year in the LCK, fans have been waiting for Nuguri and his team to pop off. Many believe 2020 to be the year that it happens. Nuguri played an essential role in DAMWON’s utter domination in the LCK Summer Split, and he will look to continue his tear on the Worlds st

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

Another recent removal from Season 9 is the Spear of Shojin . Its original concept was much different before it removing the item and giving the item a full rework. Most players remember the item by its second redesign, and the reason it was quickly taken out. After casting your ultimate, your first auto would cause your autos for six seconds to lower your basic abilities cooldown by 20% per auto-attack. Stacking attack speed with this allows champions to spam their other abilities making them a rolling death machine. It is no longer in the game; for this reason, interacting with champion abilities, this much has little counterplay. However, items like this one can be found now only in Nexus Blitz m

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

The 24-year-old stands strongly as the number one support in the world. With the ability to play a mix of tank supports, playmaking supports as well as enchanters, LvMao has made a name for himself as a playmaker in a meta that doesn’t provide much wiggle room for supports. The JD Gaming support won 9 of his eleven games on Bard during Summer, averaging eleven assists per cont
