Scuttle Racing: 2 Rift Scuttlers race down a track from top lane to the bottom lane. Champions with CC are extremely valuable in slowing down the enemy Scuttler, but the allied Scuttler is also coded as a champion so it can be buffed, sped up, or thrown across the finish line with some interacti

Prize Fight: Both teams square off in 1v1 or 2v2 fights at the center of the map. Note that fighting players will spawn near the brush in lane, so placing some traps as Teemo, Maokai, or other champions prior to the event start can result in a quick round vict

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

Getting banned between 15% and 28% of the time, Leona certainly stands out from the previous two by being all about the stuns. She might not be able to kill champions herself, but with an explosive stunning ultimate with a long-range, she can be a menace in team fig

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

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

Not only is he constantly getting nerfed and buffed, his kit just isn’t fun to play against and he’s a very "feast or famine" champion. Though his swamp/Catfish aesthetic is fantastic, Riot Games Ban Policy would basically have to completely rework his kit as opposed to performing surgery on some of his abilities for the champion to operate in a more balanced

His previous ultimate where he turned to stone and cc’ed/damaged nearby enemies was extremely useful late game once getting Zhonya's Hourglass. It could incapacitate all the right enemies so a Katarina, Akali, or Darius could bop around annihilating people. Though Galio’s new kit has more utility, his ultimate feels like a weaker Stand United from Shen and his other abilities feel like watered-down versions of his past ones. That said, the rework did remove the "flash taunt" move which most players regarded as super bro

For emerging victorious in an event, all members of the winning team are granted a temporary or permanent buff. Depending on the prize, it's either a small benefit or one that drastically tilts the game in that team's fa

Last Saturday, OG revealed that the carry god himself, Anathan "Ana," Pham would be taking an extended break and coming back next season. OG stated that Ana would be returning for the Dota Pro Circuit season of 2020-2021 to play as OG's front line carry posit

The next League of Legends event is finally arriving after Pulsefire 2020 previously ended over a month ago. From July 22nd to August 24th, Spirit Blossom 2020 is a summer celebration that brings back missions, prizes, and the Nexus Blitz game mode for participating play

In the past, Ana has had problems trying to find himself. He's gone through thick and thin to find the passion of playing Dota 2 after winning the International 2018 and has pushed himself over his mental limits. It was because of his strive to be the player OG needed that he shined at the next big tournament, which was the International 2019. Although JerAx never expressed the same issues during both Internationals, his interview with OG has filled out the blanks of his retirem

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

Nexus Blitz was an experimental game 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

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
