League of Legends continues to evolve throughout ten seasons since 2009. With each season comes massive changes to champions, items, and the way you play the game. Some of the items have had compelling moments in the past few ye

Certain items have had their costs increase to reflect their strength and the broad utility that players gain from acquiring them early in the game. By upping their respective costs, players can skill benefit from each but will need to wait longer to afford each. The main price changes

In some player's eyes, the current Black Cleaver is a shadow of what the original item once was. In early season 3, Black Cleaver has armor penetration as a base stat and shreds past 40 armor on full sta

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

Nexus Blitz is currently available for all players above level 10 in the Public Beta Environment. To find a game of Nexus Blitz, simply click the play button on the top left corner of the launcher and navigate to the PVP tab. In the PVP tab, select Nexus Blitz and then confirm your selection at the bottom of the launcher. You will need to select your preferred roles before queuing, but once you have done that you are ready to search for a game of Nexus Bl

In Scuttle Racing, two Scuttles spawn in the middle lane, one for each team, and overworld mini bosses 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

As usual, there is quite a bit to read in the 7.26a patch notes, and readers can click here for the full announcement. Best of luck to everyone and keep an eye out for players who may be overextending themselves with these new changes, as they likely have not read the notes and are ripe for a quick kill until they figure it

However, the community remained adamant in their love for Nexus Blitz which resulted in Riot finally bringing it back, with a few changes, until the end of Spirit Blossom 2020. For first time Nexus players or returning veterans, there are several things to keep in mind during a chaotic Nexus Blitz ma

Bardle Royale (Classic): The 2 teams fight for survival as a battle royale circle slowly gets smaller on the map. Anyone outside the circle almost instantly gets burned to death, so champions with knockbacks like Poppy can quickly eject enemies for a

A somewhat recent item that is no longer in the game for several reasons. Initially granting the user 50 armor and magic resist and movement speed around turrets. What people remember the ZZ'Rot Portal for is its ability to summon void minions to push waves. An active ability to drop a portal that endlessly spawns minions that push up a lane. If not dealt with, this item can hold waves for a long time, and help siege objectives. Also, every 4th minion it spawned as buffed, but each minion died after about 4 seconds on their

Bardle Royale (Paranoia): It's a bardle royale, but everyone has the nearsighted debuff and can only see what's close by. Champions with AOE skillshots like Brand and Vel'Koz can fire away until enemies inevitably get chunked or kil

Another item from the wild balancing days of season 3 & 4 is the Sword of the Divine . Giving the user 45% attack speed, one of the highest base attack speed stats on an item. Along with the stat, its active would grant the users next 3 auto's to be 100% attack speed and Crit. The active gives reliable burst windows every 60 seconds, and champion kills refund half of its cooldown. Marksmen and assassin champions can kill a squishy opponent in a matter of seconds with this i

Loot Teemo and Loot Veigar are essentially the same events, but Veigar will use Dark Matter and Event Horizon to run away. The objective of both events is to damage and then eventually last-hit the Teemo or Veigar that has spawned randomly on the map. The winning team is the one that last-hits Teemo or Veigar so keep in mind the amount of damage you do is not important. Each hit on Teemo or Veigar grants that player gold, but that extra gold is not going to be as beneficial as winning the event and receiving the reward eff

This means that certain heroes who have a high base movement speed such as Keeper of the Light will benefit less from the use of these items compared to before because they are receiving a bonus that disregards their inherently high base speed. On the opposite end of things, heroes that are inherently slower in their base speed like Medusa will benefit slightly by becoming faster than when using percentage-based bonus items for movement speed. Players who do not pay attention to this change will certainly be in for a rude awakening as they slightly overextend with a hero that was slightly faster only last w
