If you’ve been following China’s League of Legends Pro League for a while, then you’re probably aware of LGD’s consistently poor performances in recent years. However, this may be coming to an end, or so their fans hope, with the additions of former RNG top laner Xie “Langx” Zhen-Ying and former Dominus players Ling “Mark” Xu and Su “xiye” Han-
For instance, roles such as tanks might have simpler “loadouts,” which might constrain players who love tinkering with combos. Runes seem more accessible, which again might impede with the tactical depth pre-match League usually offers. Unfortunately, this mobile format might constrain PC fans. The gameplay might be simplified and turn out to be less exciting than the regular Leag
With no shortage of surprising roster swaps and eyebrow-raising decisions, it’s been tough trying to keep up with everything that’s happening. There’s no need to fret, however, because here is a breakdown of the biggest moves to happen these past few d
This strategy works because of a mechanic with Senna, where killing minions has a chance of dropping souls, which Senna can collect, granting her bonus attack damage. So Senna actually doesn’t need the gold from CS to get stronger, she can just collect the souls that drop as her laning partner farms. Although DIG Academy lost with this strategy, Zven collected enough souls early game to the point where Immortals couldn’t handle his damage output, and Cloud9 was able to take the win. Zven and Vulcan will look to continue their domination for Cloud9 in the second half of the spring sp
With the season just halfway through, it can be argued that all five Cloud9 members are worthy of winning the Spring Split MVP. Each of them are dominating in their own way, but perhaps none are more deserving than Zven. Playing excellent both mechanically and mentally, Zven along with his support Vulcan have dominated the bot lane this season, and week 5 was no different. Zven played an excellent Varus against CLG, who Cloud9 unsurprisingly beat. What was surprising, however, was Cloud9’s choice of bot lane in their second game against Immortals. Zven actually played “support” Senna, while Vulcan went Tahm Kench, acting as the “carry.” This is a strategy similar to what Dignitas Academy employed in their matchup against Golden Guardians Academy, where AD carry Fenix went Senna and support Olleh went Galio. Fenix “supported” Olleh as he farmed with Ga
Believe it or not, the Spring Split of the 2020 League of Legends Championship Series is already past its halfway point, and teams and players are starting to see themselves separate from the rest of the pack. Cloud9 leads the way, extending their dominant streak and continuing their quest for the coveted 18-0 undefeated season. Flyquest, now in sole possession of 2nd place, impresses once again and they now sit comfortably behind Cloud9 at 7-3. TSM continues to flip-flop between strong and shaky weeks, but the Bjergsen-led squad rounds out the top three at 6-4. As they and the rest of the players fight it out on the rift to distinguish themselves and their teams, some performances stood out from the r
G2 Esports won yet another European title, and they did it after the role swap of Rasmus “Caps” Winther and Luka “Perkz” Perković. Lo and behold, the duo will be swapping roles again for the 2020 Summer Sp
TSM has now won six out of their last eight games, finding their way to 3rd place in the LCS Spring standings. Dardoch has been a major part of this surge, playing Lee Sin both games this past weekend against 100 Thieves and Evil Geniuses, winning both handily. One of the main jobs of a jungler is to secure neutral objectives, such as baron and dragon, as these give buffs that increase the stats of the players, helping them win fights. During week 5, TSM gave up 6 dragons, taking just 3 for themselves. This was done intentionally, however, as they decided to exchange early game dragons for objectives elsewhere on the map, such as map pressure and turrets. Early game dragons were weakened this past off season, and making these trade-offs helped TSM get early advantages. In doing so, this enabled Dardoch to secure baron buffs, an arguably more important late game objective. He managed to secure his team 100% of the barons taken this past weekend, which led to TSM winning both games. In terms of personal stats, Dardoch led junglers with a 14 KDA this week, dying just once. TSM will look to Dardoch to be a strength in the jungle, as they chase Flyquest in the standi
SK Gaming finished as the second-worst team in the League of Legends Guide of Legends European Championship this past spring. After winning just four out of their eighteen total games, SK announced some major roster shakeups that they hope will help propel them back into competition among Europe’s fin
