5 Takeaways From The LEC’s Wild Week 3

While Ruler may be the perfect AD Carry , Jackeylove is a highlight waiting to happen. The former World Champion joined Top Esports at the beginning of the year and was the spark that the team needed. His fearlessness led to a lot of TES victories, and the occasional int. He looks to earn his second World Championship and cement himself as one of League’s greatest AD Carr

As individual players, Misfits fields strong talent on their roster. But as a team, the lineup just hasn’t gelled together how fans believe they could. Their macro play has been a point of inconsistency, with their players often on different pa

Furthermore, champions will automatically get gold by being near minion or monster kills. Finally, getting 4 kills without dying grants the ON FIRE! buff which gives increased attack speed, AD, AP, CDR, and resource regeneration but slightly increases damage taken while reducing shielding and healing. If someone gets ON FIRE!, the match will surely end soon unless they are stop

Leona’s abilities are geared towards getting in the middle of the fight and using crowd control abilities to allow her teammates to land their damage. Here is a basic overview of her abilities and when she might benefit from using t

With the dominant team gone, teams are going to have to worry less. What made OG strong was their unpredictability. Other teams have calm and collected players. Some have good social connections and positive environments. And some even have insane co-ordinated teamwork, but rarely do we see teams that blow away everyone time after time. OG had a thing for making the impossible possible and that was unique on its own, so with that gone, professional Dota 2 will frankly be more of a boresome eSport to watch. Watch the team’s race to get the hero or farm until they get their item build, repeat for every ma

Subsequently, OG also revealed their first out of lane branching team named OG CS: GO, which is comprised of the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players in the world. The team’s most recent accomplishment was way back in December, wherein the team placed third and pocketed $21.5 thousand. A new front may be in the making for

Leona’s best choice for summoning spells are going to be Flash and ignite. Flash can help Leona get in the middle of a fight or help her easily retreat from one as well. Ignite can be swapped with a barrier or heal to go with a more support play style, but ignite will bag more early kills for an aggressive Leona. For her Runes, the Resolve path is best for playing divey and aggressive. First on the Rune path, get Aftershock as it synergizes well with Leona’s abilities and provides extra resistances on top of Leona’s already existing ones. For your second Rune, go with Demolish because if you are playing aggressive as Leona, you’ll be near the enemy tower a lot so it would be ideal to deal extra damage to it. The third Rune spot should be filled with Conditioning because it synergizes really well with Leona’s Eclipse ability. Conditioning is also a free and guaranteed spike in tankiness at minute 12, which will cause even more problems for enemy ADCs that are also spiking in damage at this time. For your final Rune slot, go with either Unflinching or Overgrowth. Unflinching can be more helpful if you’re playing an aggressive Leona that likes to roam because then you don’t have to worry about first being near minion kills to benefit from the Rune. Unflinching will also provide Leona with much needed tenacity and slow resist so she can better maneuver when in the middle of a battle. On the other hand, Overgrowth will provide Leona with much needed extra HP that can help her survive high damage output in the late-game, so it is worth taking Overgrowth if you suspect a long g

This isn’t to say the famous Trinity Force is a useless weapon , but the flat damage to all basic attacks that comes with the Blade of the Ruined King is hard to match. If you wish to play something aggressive in the top lane, you’re rarely wrong to immediately rush this powerful i

The most prominent is Doran’s Shield, a defensive starter item that’s been an outstanding part of early builds lately, even on certain ADC champions in the bottom lane. With some extra regeneration through abilities like Garen’s passive, it can make for an invincible champion at an unusually early point in the g

Nexus Blitz was an experimental MOBA game champions mode released during the summer of 2018 for several weeks and then briefly revived during the spring of 2019. Although Nexus Blitz was a favorite because of its short match length, data showed that playtime for the game mode dropped heavily by the end and Riot Games made the decision to pull the m

As discussed earlier, Leona is best played as an aggressive support that takes advantage of enemies that are alone or have stepped up too close to the minion wave. As a support, she is best played bottom lane with a preferably ranged ADC that is willing to combo with Leona when she dives aggressively. In lane, you’re going to want to harass the enemy ADC with Zenith Blade whenever they are alone or trying to last hit a minion . If you don’t have wards and an enemy is missing, hide in the brush beside the river to provide vision for your ADC and then punish any enemy junglers that are come to tank. Leona has a ton of wave clear with Eclipse and Zenith Blade, so it is okay to be aggressive and push lane to the enemy tower. This kind of play will also synergize well with Demolish as you can do a lot of damage to the enemy towers early on. Clearing and pushing the wave also provides Leona with the opportunity to leave the lane and help out middle or top. Thanks to her Boots of Mobility, she can rotate to other lanes and easily engage the enemy from the brush. In the middle to late-game, Leona will excel at tanking damage and providing crowd control. Use her abilities to get right into the middle of the fight and draw attention away from your team. Then, use her Shield of Daybreak or Solar Flare to deal damage while immobilizing the enemy ADC. If Leona is in the absolute thick of it, use Eclipse and Gargoyle Stoneplate to tank the enemy team’s damage output and let your team clean them
