When you can afford it, build your Phage into a Black Cleaver. This will be Garen's ideal first essential item because of the extra health and cooldown reduction it provides. For your selection of proper boots, go with either Mercury's Treads or the Ninja Tabi. If the enemy team has a lot of crowd control abilities that can slow Garen down, the Tenacity from both Mercury's Treads and Courage will greatly lessen those effects. If the enemy team relies on dealing damage with basic attacks, go with the Ninja Tabi to block an additional 12% damage. You can also build the Kindlegem into a Spirit Visage which will really beef up Garen and also increase his overall healing. Next, consider purchasing a Dead Man's Plate to have Garen tank up considerably. With Dead Man's Plate, Garen can gain movement speed and attack damage just by moving around and avoiding crowd controlling effects, which is easy to do thanks to Courage and Mercury Tre
Ezeal was initially seen as the champion's strongest counter, but many teams have recently opted for the Kalista matchup. Kalista currently has a 5-3 record against Aphelios in Europe, and many talented AD carries such as Luka "Perkz" Perković and Martin "Rekkles" Larsson have lost to Kalista while on Aphel
Overall, Nexus Blitz is a fun game mode that is only out for a limited time so try it out and take a break from regular ranked Summoner's Rift. Just remember to use teamwork and win events so you can push objectives before your Nexus gets impatient and takes matters into its own ha
Role assignments are a little different compared to Summoner's Rift with 3 laners and 2 junglers compared to the 5 specialized roles in a normal League of Legends match. Additionally, Nexus Blitz only has Nickelodeon All-star brawl 2 lanes so 1 player will always be going solo against an opponent. The jungle is split between the 2 lanes, with various camps filled by tougher monsters than those found on Summoner's Rift. The 2 junglers must work together to clear these camps, but will share increased EXP, gold, and buffs by doing
Turns out lady Elise had other plans for our poor Hapless Aristocrat. The next part of the story takes place within Elise’s Champion art , where she leads him to a dark cave and reveals her true form to him, that of a giant spider. However, this would not be the end of the Hapless Aristocrat, as somehow he escaped Elise’s mansion and avoided becoming her din
When playing Nexus Blitz, it's easy to forget that the main objective is still to destroy the enemy Nexus. Therefore, the Poro King reward is a really good reward to receive. The Poro King helps your team push lane and destroy turrets by tanking damage, healing allies periodically, and breathing fire on your enem
In Scuttle Racing, two Scuttles spawn in the middle lane, one for each team, and they stroll casually in a uniform line to the bottom of the map. The key to this game mode is that the scuttles are susceptible to abilities so use slows and stuns on the enemy scuttle while defending your team's with powerful damaging abilit
From within the depths of the Shadow Isles, there is a great tragedy; the tragedy of the Hapless Aristocrat. This story is far less wholesome or inspiring than that of Cithria’s. It all begins with the card "Arachnoid Sentry," with a gentleman caller approaching a house with a smug grin and four roses. From the card’s flavor text it’s revealed that he’s expecting dinner with some woman he’s fallen hopelessly in love with. But instead of being greeted by a beautiful woman at the door, he’s face to face with a giant spider and everything begins to unravel from th

But most importantly, the team has proven to the world that there are no boundaries or limits to something if you set your mind to it. That driving passion that brought the world as a whole together to celebrate and be part of something bigger was OG's most significant achievement. And throughout the years, it has been an adventure for everyone, but with every journey comes an end inevita
Earlier today, League of Legends players got started on the latest event, Spirit Blossom 2020 and bonding with certain champions . But rewards aren't the only thing the community is excited about since the Nexus Blitz game mode is also making its long-awaited ret
The ascent up the mountain continues in "Mountain Sojourners." The group of three are still making their way up the mountain where things only get more perilous. The card art for "Fused Firebrand" shows a giant metallic dragon attacking two travelers in the snow, Emir and Tyari, with Halley nowhere to be seen. It can be inferred that the Halley fell off the side of the mountain in Mountain Sojourners. The Mentor’s prediction about Halley and Emir failing to make it to the peak turned out to be t
