But in the new meta of every League of Legends champion has mobility, tick or on-hit damage, and an array of crowd control effects, Cho’Gath’s immobility is a bridge too far for most players. He’s on Riot’s list of champions to rework, so maybe players will see one for him in 2
Older players got to experience this item's power and know why it was quickly removed. Before the start of season three, Madred's Bloodrazor continues to dominate the rift. A very high-cost item but allows each basic attack to deal 4% of the target's maximum health as bonus magic damage. Pairing with a 40% attack speed makes this item extremely powerful. Primarily built on champions with AD, it allows them to destroy tanks who stack armor resist because of the bonus magic damage. Along with the odd stats it has, it wasn't easy to play against and is why it makes the l
Although he may look like the ultimate inter at times, Nuguri’s playmaking skills and natural talent make him one of the most talented players in the world. Ever since DAMWON’s first year in the LCK, fans have been waiting for Nuguri and his team to pop off. Many believe 2020 to be the year that it happens. Nuguri played an essential role in DAMWON’s utter domination in the LCK Summer Split, and he will look to continue his tear on the Worlds st
Being the best player, on the best team, in the best dark fantasy mobile Games region secures Knight the number one spot. Finding flaws in his gameplay is a tall order. He consistently gains advantages over lane opponents. He moves around the map and supports his team better than anyone. His understanding of his and his team’s specific win conditions is impeccable, and he brings incredible champion diversity to the World’s stage. Top Esports is the overwhelming favorite to take home the title and Knight is the catalyst for their succ
The talented Vietnam native has been one of many shining stars for the young Suning team. Together with Xiang "Angel" Tao, SofM comprises half of a strong mid-jungle duo, which helped lead to Suning grabbing China’s third spot at Worlds. With over 60% win percentages on Trundle, Lee Sin, Graves as well as Jarven IV, SofM easily lands among the top junglers in the wo
In his first split as a part of Gen.G, BDD was one of the best performing mid laners in the LCK, with a 6.2 KDA (kill/death/assist) ratio, which was good for second in the LCK Summer Split, behind only DAMWON’s Heo "ShowMaker" Su. Although many consider bot laner Park "Ruler" Jae-hyuk to be the main carry of the team, BDD brings a ton of talent and leadership to the team, making them one of the favorites from Korea to win the entire ev
Skarner is a limited champion players don’t often pick. Despite the utility of his ultimate, the last rework Skarner got mostly only improved on his visuals. The introduction of the spire system was a novelty at best and the rest of his kit has a "turn your brain off" v
The best individual laner in the world, Chovy takes any and every opponent to his lane kingdom. He averages 13.5 CS over enemy mid laners at 15 minutes, the highest amongst all qualified mid laners. DRX depends on Chovy, sometimes overly so, to dominate the lane early in order to gain advantages on other parts of the map. Luckily, he delivers. Chovy single-handedly carried an inconsistent and underperforming DRX roster to the LCK finals and, subsequently, Worlds qualification. May the church of Chovy bless the r
That variety is a lot of what helps League of Legends remain so entertaining to players years later. Everyone plays differently enough amidst fairly identical core mechanics, so playing a character you haven’t tried before always feels new. Having several options is valuable to this genre, and Pokémon Unite can easily carry that o
Pokémon Unite has another challenge in the form of its platforms, being the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. With fast-paced multiplayer action games, these platforms can struggle with too many confusing and conflicting mechanics, so it's important to ensure characters and their moves are easy to cont
Gangplank’s rework is very similar to Galio’s in that the rework fixed a lot of the difficult-to-balance issues with the champion. But the visual rework took out a ton of the original character (a common theme in many LoL rewor
Some higher-level players will say that the original GP "lacked skill expression." After all, an ability that heals and cleanses stacked with a Q ability that does crit damage and gives gold? Pretty sweet. GP’s original E ability was an attack speed, attack damage, and movement speed buff lasting for 7 seconds. The exchange for barrels could have been done without stripping GP of his personality. As a result, though Riot maintained much of what made Gangplank unique, many fans were disappointed with the rew
If you are a long time League of Legends player, this top entry might come at little to no surprise. Deathfire Grasp is one of the most popular items that the league community would love to get back, just as much as they hate it. Giving 120 AP, 10 cooldown reduction, and an active that deals 15% of the targets max Hp in magic damage. Not only does its active deal a lot of damage, but the target would take 20% more magic damage from any other spell for 4 seconds afterwards. DFG makes burst mages pop champions even faster, and those who didn't now could. The item is so popular, in Pentakill's first album, Smite and Ignite, this item is the second track on the al
