Video games should be an escape. They shouldn’t highlight which one of your friends has the least disposable income. They shouldn’t remind kids how much their parents are hurting, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. They shouldn’t imply there’s a “correct” way to game. They should reward based on skill, not how much pocket money they get a w
Karsa is currently chasing a World Championship title with Top E-sports (TES) who are hoping to make a name for themselves this Split. While not necessarily an innovator, Karsa has become a carry in the Jungle position, enabling his team to come back in games that should have otherwise been l
Transported from the world of bounty hunters and pirates on the high seas , Secret Agent Miss Fortune finds the iconic character emersed in a milieu of espionage and intrigue. @miyukicosplay realizes this variation of Miss Fortune expertly, stepping into the swanky party dress of a spy on a miss
Cosplayer @kim_on_the_rocks takes a few liberties with her cosplay, electing to combine Miss Fortune’s traditional outfit with something much more Bewitching; the result is an impressive and dynamic take on the character that showcases just how interesting her Halloween inspired skin’s weapons are. Lit and ready for battle, “Shock” and “Awe” as candles don’t seem particularly threatening, but the backdrop—what looks to be a desolate, tornado ravished scene reminiscent of The Wizard of Oz —screams “pandemonium,” which instills the pistols-turned-wax with a sense of contextual wickedness and hostil
The biggest change in the newcomer update for Dota 2 is the revamped tutorial . Valve implemented a quest-like system of objectives that allows beginners to explore the game in a controlled, scripted environment. Featuring tiers of progression, it introduces players to the client and basic game mechanics with rewards upon completion. Alongside this new tutorial is a glossary to help players fill in any gaps along the way. The coaching system from previous battle passes have also made a return as players can request to have coaches join them in their games for extra h
More often than not, this will result in a team wipe or some embarrassing misplays because one: random beginners didn’t train with you and two: pro setups are tailored to specific teams and playstyles. Just because you copied your idol’s play down to the last consumable doesn’t mean you can carry the whole team. After all, DOTA 2 is all about teamw
In DOTA 2, you usually when it comes to items or gold if you don’t know how to do a “last hit.” Because whoever gets the final blow to a creep or non-hero unit gets the gold reward. Any other attack prior to the killing blow isn’t rewarded at
Yet there are a few heroes that have been around for a while that, while they might not be immune to nerfs, are certainly more resistant to them than others. Experts that have mastered these heroes don’t sweat it when an upcoming patch looks to put a stop to their reign of dominance because they can prioritize other skills and items to keep them strong and scary. These are the most notable heroes that players should either learn to master or learn to
How exactly do you pull off those big plays and awesome ganks in DOTA 2 or other MOBA Item Guide s? By communicating. Typing is too slow and not everyone has a mic or has enough social bravery to speak with their squeaky voice in-game so minimap pings and marks are pretty stand
Sometimes you get to pull it off but most of the time, the tower ends up killing you. This is also a known tactic to bait eager players into being overconfident. It results in a rather embarrassing death that only serves to fuel the enemy’s gold depos
Ambition is one of the most dominant Jungle players to grace the Summoner’s Rift, but before that, he was known as one of Korea’s best Mid Laners. However, Ambition is most remembered for being apart of the iconic Samsung Galaxy run at the 2017 World Championships, dethroning SKT T1, and bringing their 3-peat dream to a crushing end, defeating his longtime rival, Fa
ClearLove’s overall competitive win rate sits at 259 wins and 109 losses. Unfortunately, ClearLove has never really showed up for his team when it comes to domestic performance, and as such, has never won a World Championship. However, due to his time spent as a competitive player (from 2012 – present), and his adaptability to various different meta’s over the year, ClearLove has demonstrated himself as the most resilient pro-players to ever compete at the highest level in League of Lege
It doesn’t end there. So many of the big games getting sold to us now rely on online multiplayer, which is another subscription to add on top of that. Lower income families won’t be able to foot the annual bill, so they’ll pay monthly, as lower income households do with most payments, which ends up costing more in the long run. Either that, or the kids just don’t have it and have the vast majority of their hobby locked out. They won’t be able to ignore it: their friends will have the PS Plus logo next to their name. It will be advertised to them every time they’re on the home m
