Once considered the most well-known North American player, Yiliang "Peter" Peng played for CLG, TSM, and Team Liquid. Although he was primarily known for being amazing with Blitzcrank, Poppy, and Lee Sin, it was his bot lane performance that made him the amazing player he became. As an AD Carry, he was one of the best in his region, but certain things have always held him b
Like many other competitive players, Stephen "Snoopeh" Ellis bounced around a bit during his relatively brief career. His break into stardom happened when he signed with CLG EU in 2011, but he made a name for himself under Evil Geniuses (EG). In contrast to aggro-junglers, Snoopeh took a more support-based approach, but still ganked fairly of
By watching the regionals, players have been able to see a variety of team compositions and strategic playstyles being used. Whether competitors play champions like the Daredevil Samira , Divine Kayle, or The Boss Sett, there are plenty of combinations fans could see in the Championsh
This player is mostly known for one of the most famous plays in League history. He managed to backdoor a nexus with his Kassadin during a thrilling 1v2 situation. Since then, because the LCS picture-in-picture camera would many times show split pushes and backdoors, it started being called "the Peke C
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,
He left the competitive scene in 2014, but many fans still reminisce about his impact on the EU sector. Snoopeh's former teammate Krepo recently announced his return to the LoL scene recently, too. However, in Snoopeh's case, it seems that he has fully moved onto other ventu
"You get a lot of people that don't know exactly what characters to pick," he said, noting that fighting riot games regional pricing are highly character-driven. "All these different types of characters are really, really popular. But not everyone knows how to play them, or what team to put them with. I can help them with th
Before I signed up for the session, I wanted to understand Metafy from a coach’s perspective. I spoke with Perry "KnowKami" Vinson , a partnered Twitch streamer , YouTuber and top-level Dragon Ball FighterZ player. Vinson said he joined the site after seeing other players tweet that they’d started coaching on Met
Braum raises his shield in the target direction, creating a barrier that intercepts incoming non-turret enemy projectiles and reduces the damage he takes through the shield. The first instance of damage blocked by his shield is negated comple
Maintaining a presence in the lane is one thing, but staying too long is an often fatal mistake. After chasing down an opponent and killing them, many beginners will push towers while at low health, because there is no one there to challenge them. This opens the player up to being ganked by another en
At first, his playstyle was very aligned with his known temper. He was constantly playing aggressively and looking for kills, but he only improved during his days as a professional mid laner. Curiously, the name "Reginald" was just Andy's attempt to come up with the most annoying name possible for someone to h
Winning a single world title -- let alone two -- is a tremendous feat. In 2015, SKT T1 became the first League of Legends team to win two titles. This pretty much solidified their legacy as the greatest League of Legends team to ever compete. At this time, the roster consisted of MaRin, bengi, Faker/Easyhoon, Bang, and W
For one in-game fight in particular, I recalled that I’d felt a sense of panic in terms of not knowing what I should have done when squeezed between two squads. After reviewing the footage with me, he explained that this was a case where having dropped back to get cover hurt me when I could have taken the fight head-on with my teammate. He also suggested that I’d also used the wrong type of grenade — a thermite grenade — as a frag grenade would have been much better to achieve my goal of forcing the team to have to reposit
This is the number one rule of playing as Braum — always be stacking Concussive Blows. Once the first hit is landed, make sure to get allies to add on with some basic attacks of their own. It's far easier to take down everything from dragons to enemy champions if they're stun
That is until they faced Korea's Samsung White which consisted of Looper, Dandy, PawN, imp, and Mata. In an utterly embarrassing stomp (and on some of their signature champion picks), Samsung White defeated Uzi and Star Horn Royal Club to cement Korea as the most dominant region in the wo
As a coach, he sets his rates, his lesson types and his availability. He also keeps 100 percent of what he earns. Within a month of signing up for the site, he said he’d already had 70 people attempt to book sessions with
