The length of games is parred down, too. In our conversations with Riot, they tell us that even some users on PC are looking for shorter League of Legends matches. On Mobile Legends Jungle, the company wants to provide 15-20 minute experiences that still preserve the strategy and depth of a typical game. That means the map is a little smaller and tower health has been appropriately sca
With the recent release of the new animated Dota 2 series on Netflix, Valve has finally acknowledged the barrier of entry and has overhauled the new player experience with tutorials, in-game tooltips, a coaching system, a new game mode, and more based on community feedback. Together with these new updates, Dota 2 sets a great example for other competitive games to make their newcomer experience more accessi
Riot tells us the dev team is prioritizing getting classic League champions out the door, expecting to get about two champions out the door per month through 2021. Right now, Wild Rift sports 61 champions, not even half of the PC version’s roster of 156, but there are still plenty out there to fill each laning r
Long-time fans know that the mounts of both Luna and Mirana are feared warriors themselves. Sadly, Nova – who is Luna’s mount – only appears for a few frames during the trailer. But fans get to see Sagan in action as it tackles a flying dragon to save Mir
Despite his physicality, Garen cosplayers have forged incredible representations of the Demacian that bring aspects of his identity and kit to life. Whether it’s a focus on his ornate armor, a realization of his in-game model in the real world, or wielding his iconic massive sword, League fans are certain to recognize and respect Garen’s representation in the cosplay sph
From a l ore standpoint , Garen’s relationship with his sister, Lux, is fundamental in not only understanding his character but also all of Demacia as a kingdom. @a.n.d.r.0 stands resolute in a Garen cosplay that places particular emphasis on his massive weapon—the sword of Demacia. Featured, too, is his magical sister, Lux, as portrayed by @elsy_ha
With a stern and determined countenance, @windwalk_cosplay represents the honor-bound and duty-driven nature of Garen as a character. Born into the prestigious Crownguard family and leader of the Dauntless Vanguard, Garen’s service to the royal family of Demacia and its military are integral to his identity, an element that this polished cosplay dutifully captu
If someone turns the brightness up high, they will notice that Davion is running up a spiked back. Viewers can similarly see that he jumps over the head of none other than Slyrak itself to attack the other dra
Over the years, while Valve has made several attempts to make Dota 2 more beginner friendly, most ended up ineffective. The biggest problem was that there was no in-depth tutorial for newcomers to follow. Despite its complex mechanics, the in-game tutorial was underwhelming in design and as a result, newcomers would often learn to play through online videos or through their experienced friends. However, another problem in Dota 2 emerged with its poor matchmaking system . Once newcomers had learned the basics and played some bot games, they would finally queue in an actual 5v5 environm
Terrorblade, the demon who even dominated the reflections of his most evil aspects. The demon whose motives are unknown to the world. The demon who can transform into his worst possible self and keep it under his control. And if this isn’t the perfect way to drop an Easter egg, no way possibly
Valve also finally addressed the smurfing problem in Dota 2 by officially making it a bannable offense . Players who are found to be selling accounts or boosting ranks can have their main accounts banned as well. Suspected smurf accounts will also be paired with other smurf accounts in order to stop them from ruining the experience of newer players. While Valve has previously attempted to mitigate this issue by detecting smurf accounts and adjusting to their correct rank, there were still issues where players would smurf with the sole intention of beating lower skilled players. With Valve finally putting its foot down on smurfing, this should mean that newcomers will be able to play against other players of their skill le
@overbombercosplay’s rendition of Garen distinctly features glowing orbs in the armor and sword, further highlighting these iconic features with an emblazoned glow that speaks to the character’s streng
Speaking of those items, active abilities on your equipment may look a little different – but don’t panic. Actives haven’t gone anywhere, you just acquire them now through boot enchantments. Buying boots is almost always priority in League, and that doesn’t change here. Except now, when you pick up your Ninja Tabi or Mercury’s Treads, you can enchant them with just about any active like invulnerability buffs, shields, dashes, or movement speed increa
