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
With the addition of Huni, Evil Geniuses look to bolster their already strong lineup. However, due to Riot Games’ import restrictions, Huni might not play for EG’s LCS roster in 2020. In order to play Huni, Evil Genuises would have to replace Bang with Academy bot laner Matthew “Deftly” Chen. It’s more plausible that fans will see Huni play for EG’s Academy team, and as long as Huni plays at least 50% of the games this summer, he’ll be eligible to declare as a North American citizen for the 2021 Spring Split, and thus be able to play for EG without breaking any import restricti
As mentioned, all champions begin at level 1 at the start of each match. Leveling in a game can provide perks like more HP, MP, movement speed and defense. In order to level up. champions will need to defeat enemies or kill opponent champions. Also going to jungle camps and killing there is another way to gain levels. They will also drop gold that can be used to upgrade specific stats and unlock abilities. The max level players can reach in a single game is
Diana used to be a weak champion until level 6, but the already-mentioned skill swap changed that. Skilled players can gain a huge laning advantage and can easily roam to influence other lanes. Also, the champion can be played in different ways, with various possible builds via
Korea’s reign of dominance over League of Legends tier list of Legends esports is long over. Teams from China’s LPL have repeatedly bested the Korean representatives not just in this tournament, but in all recent international events. After five straight Korean World champions, the past two Worlds finals saw two Chinese teams in Invictus Gaming and FunPlus Phoenix beat two European teams in Fnatic and G2 Esports, respectiv
The 2020 Mid Season Cup was no different, with Gen.G being the lone LCK team to make it out of the group stage. Many pegged T1, who recently won the 2020 LCK Spring Split, as the favorites to win the tournament. Despite getting off to early leads in their games thanks to some nutty plays from Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, T1 looked near-clueless at times, losing their advantages and allowing their opponents to come back and
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
After the latest champion change, with her E and R switched around, Diana became a much more viable option in the mid lane. As an AP assassin with a very strong team fight ultimate, the champion is expected to even appear in pro p
Support: This role is to protect and support the ADC. If needed, this means taking hits and sacrificing their lives so the ADC can survive. Abilities focus more on crowd control like silences, stuns, slowing down the enemy. Their main mission is to support the t

Being the most experienced support in the LCS, aphromoo talked about the current bot lane meta and if Dignitas plans to shake up their picks at all. “Meta is important but once you finally start meshing as a team, you’re able to branch out. So, we’ll definitely be branching out a bit more, I would s
