“No one wants to pick up Dardoch, that’s not my fault.” In what was perhaps the most talked-about news in League of Legends this year, Team SoloMid president Leena Xu’s controversy with Yiliang “Doublelift” Peng and Joshua “Dardoch” Hartnett caused an explosion in the community when Leena was overheard on Doublelift’s stream saying in a phone call that now-infamous series of words. Well, it turns out she was wrong, as the twenty-two-year-old jungler became the latest player to sign with Digni
Formerly the mid laner of Berlin Internatioal Gaming of the Prime League Pro Division, Dirk “ZaZee” Mallner recently joined SK as the team’s starting mid laner, switching Janik “Jenax” Bartels to the top lane. The team also brought in twenty-three-year-old Jesse “Jesiz” Le to be the team’s new head coach, who actually played mid lane for SK back in November 2013 to October 2014. Still led by veteran jungler Kim “Trick” Gang-yun, SK hopes their 2020 summer will be vastly different from their 2020 spr
Ucal and Smeb previously won the LCK title with KT Rolster back in Summer 2018. The two will look to do the same again, as they compete against T1, Gen.G, DragonX, DAMWON, and more for that heavily contested right to call themselves champions of Ko
KT Rolster’s 2020 Spring Split was a breath of fresh air for the franchise, who struggled heavily during 2019’s summer. The team recently finished the split in fifth, after being forced to fight for their LCK roster spot in the 2019 Summer Promotion Tournament. Aiming to get back to their winning ways, KT Rolster resigned Son “Ucal” Woo-hyeon, who was let go by Griffin following their relegation and Song “Smeb” Kyung-ho, who left KT Rolster at the end of last year and remained a free ag
If you’ve been following China’s League of legends builds 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-
Warner Bros. were one of several who went all-in on developing shared universes, and while some have long since been forgotten, others are rolling on and gradually adopting a style and format all of their own. Here are the 5 shared universes Warner Bros. produced and their status here and now in 2
With both Akaadian and Dardoch now on their active roster, a decision on who the starting jungler will be is expected to come within the next week. Whoever wins the job, the other will be sent down to Academy. Either way, Dignitas will look to improve this split in hopes of making a playoff
While in professional play this champion is not viable because of the coordination of players, in solo queue things are different. Her Eye of the Storm offers extra AD for other champions and her survivability is much higher than anticipated, with very good crowd control and extra protection offe
The recent addition of Yu “JackeyLove” Wen-Bo seems to have unlocked something in this team. The upcoming Summer Split will be JackeyLove’s first full split with Top Esports, and fans can expect the young bot laner to be one of the main contributors as they compete in the
The China native played Zoe twice, landing every sleepy trouble bubble imaginable, not dying a single time. He even switched from a carry role to a support-like role, playing Orianna against FPX in the finals, finishing with a KDA (kill/death/assist) of 2/2
In the early game focus on Tongue Lash for farming, level 10 or so switch to Thick Skin, and at level 14 prioritize Devour. Your goal is to take the hits with Thick Skin and Devour allies when they’re close to dying letting you take the fall instead. Your goal isn’t to get kills, but to help your weaker allies survive so they can get ki
The goal is to start as a dueler and transition to mobile support in late-game. Grasp of Undying is a critical rune as it uses Tahm’s large health to further damage enemies and heal you by two percent of total health. Devour is mostly used to hurl minions at enemy champions between Tongue Lashi
Here’s where all of the Warner Bros. shared universes are today, and which of them actually succeeded. The concept of several different movie series all being connected by a larger shared universe umbrella is not new to cinema. The Universal monster movie franchise popular throughout the 1930s and 1940s is often considered the very first example of a shared cinematic universe, tying together otherwise disparate franchises such as Dracula , The Mummy and The Wolf-Man . In Japan, Toho’s kaiju movies also formed their own connected fictional world, with Godzilla front and cen
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
