The fans first theorized the culprit to be Riki or Bounty Hunter in disguise. Later, theories shifted to target Templar Assasin, who collects rare items for MOBA strategies her master Void Spirit. It has since been revealed that the culprit is a completely new character , but the wild goose chase that the fans gave is endearing at wo
If it was a five-man push and they killed you alone then that already puts your whole team at a disadvantage in the event that they want to stop the onslaught because they’re already outnumbered. Beyond that, each of your death contributes to the enemy’s g
In a blogpost , Niantic described the unnamed game as having “gameplay activities to encourage walking and make walking more delightful.” This is the first game developed by Niantic’s Tokyo studio and is expected sometime in 2
In DOTA 2, each and every trip back to the fountain or base is a considerable help or hindrance to the pushing effort. That’s because the amount of time it takes to return to the fountain for healing should have been better spent farming some creeps or dealing attrition damage to towers or even clash
As League of Legend’s primary form of monetization, the skins—costumes—developed for characters often reimagine them in an alternate setting that may realize a different sort of fantasy. This not only entices fans of the characters but may attract players who weren’t invested in the character’s original des
Last Year, Riot VP Greg Street announced an upcoming League of Legends MMO on Twitter. The announcement was not part of Riot’s 2019 ten-year celebration where the company announced it was developing seven new games, including the then-unnamed titles Legends of Runeterra, Valorant, and League of Legends: Wild R
While there are many support heroes in the game, there are very few true healers. Preventing damage or adding life affects the battle at its very core; the hero with life remaining at the end of the fight w
@kerrocosplay takes a video-game purist’s approach to bring Garen to life. Resting his massive sword on his shoulder in an intimidating-yet-relaxed pose, it’s clear that this cosplay means business; sword aside, the clean design of Garen’s breastplate embodies the character’s in-game design, foregoing a more realistic take on ar
Jonathan Warner , director of Anthem and Chief of Staff at Bioware, announced his resignation from the company this week. Warner revealed this news on Twitter where he said he would be leaving Bioware to pursue “new thin
On The Run soft-launched in select regions throughout Southeast Asia on April 22, 2020, and launched worldwide on Android and iOS on March 25, 2021. The game is free-to-play, though aggressive microtransactions have earned the game a bit of a sour reputation among critics and players. The game currently has a rating of 4.7/5 on the Google Play store with over 50,000 reviews, so it’s safe to say that many are thoroughly enjoying the g
The trailer is very clear about the importance of Selemene’s Lotuses to the plot. And the fact that someone manages to steal them from right under the order’s nose means that the thief is no less talented than the her
The creators behind Dragon’s Blood have been thorough in their research while setting up the universe for the anime. And fans can notice this in small details like the two moons. The bright and smaller moon in the front is the true form of Selemene, the goddess of the moon-order to which Mirana and Luna bel
Impale is an area of effect stun for 2.6 seconds, which is more than enough time to unleash Mana Burn and Vendetta. If this hasn’t already disposed of the target, don’t forget that the Dagon is core to this build and will deliver an additional devastating n
Dota 2 itself also received a number of changes to its matchmaking system to create a better experience for newcomers. An all new game mode called the New Player Mode was introduced to the game which features a smaller hero pool that allows players to learn the basics without encountering new spells or heroes every game. This game mode also ensures that new players will only match with new players and allows them to leave at any point in the game, replacing them with a bot if they do
Everybody already fears the Skeleton Walk, Searing Arrows, and Strafe combo. After farming an Orchid Malevolence, all any normal heroes can do is die. Other carries might be able to handle a one-on-one better, but Clinkz wipes out the rest of the t
Perhaps the biggest Easter egg comes not from the trailer but from the mobile phone wallpapers released with it . Fans were quick to realize that each of the four heroes’ posters had a part of a QR code in them. Putting together the QR code leads to a 10-second teaser with Terrorbl
These new changes represent an exciting step forward for competitive games in general. While the competitive nature of the eSports scenes are what draw people towards these games, they are often inaccessible for newcomers. With Valve taking a big step forward in addressing these concerns, this hopefully means that its other games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive will follow suit . Its stance on smurfing should also serve as an example for other competitive games as well. Games like League of Legends and Overwatch have had smurfing problems for years but since their developers rarely crack down on it, they turn off many potential newcomers. As Valve continues to improve its matchmaking systems, other games should take note of how Dota 2 has begun catering to a new audie
