The Collapse Of Blizzard s ESports Scene

Part of the original lore of the game dealt with how certain champions were bound to the league. Essentially, their power was held by the league. This allowed them to remain bound, such as Nocturne, and allowed their powers to scale back and forth between battles universa


One thing which was never explored, and still isn’t, is how the mages who managed the league maintained control over certain champions. While Nocturne is certainly a prime example of a champion who vocally opposes what is basically his prison, cases such as Morgana and Kayle are professed demi-g


Anthem is taking advantage of its sibling status to the beloved Mass Effect series in its Season of Skulls Halloween event. Players will get the chance to use Asari, Krogan, Quarian, and Turian armor during the event, along with new weekly and seasonal challenges and an increased legendary drop rate. The Season of Skulls will also be a bit of a lore drop, with a fog gathering around Fort Tarsis and "intriguing secrets" scattered throughout


In most games, a character can hold one weapon or similar item in each hand, sometimes requiring two hands. Anything else would be in their inventory. This isn’t the case in League. Not only are players able to buy as many as six different swords, it's often encouraged. Especially on certain ranged champions, the confusing bit is how someone would manage to make use of them all simultaneou


Many champions call the void home. These champions range from monsters born in The Void such as Rek’Sai to "The Prophet of the Void" Malzahar. Champions who carry the banner of The Void tend to have shadowy moves rooted in darkness and evil. But if the league exists to settle disputes, why welcome champions of this mysterious place of darkn


Mortal Kombat 11 's free in-game event begins on October 25, bringing four new Halloween-themed boss fights to the game which include flying witches and bats, falling pumpkins, black cats, and tombstones rising from the ground. To top off the fun, the event also adds new brutalities, Halloween consumables, and other in-game rewards to e


Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is doing a number of things to celebrate Dark Arts Month. There's the two-part Fighting Forces Brilliant Event, during which players will come face-to-face with Death Eaters, escaped Azkaban prisoners, Sirius Black (but he's a good guy?), and Dementors. Furthermore, a Halloween quest will begin on October 31, in which players will explore a Dark Arts-themed Fortress Chamber and win some special rewa


While beauty is in the eye of the beholder, we're going to argue that DOTA2 just has a better look in general due to its slightly less cartoon-like and pixelated graphics. The terrain is really beautiful and vibrant, and the hero details in-game just provide some extra that isn't found in Leag


World of Warcraft Classic is also hosting a Hallow's End that many founds of the MMO will want to check out, as they can trick or treat, bob for apples, attend the Wickerman Festival, check out a new questline, and m


Reading his story, it makes sense why Sol would choose to compete in the league. What doesn’t make sense is how anyone else could defeat him. A space dragon who can create entire star systems seems a bit out of the reach of someone like Jax who simply swings a light post. And yet, Aurelion Sol isn’t even that g


League of Legends follows a familiar format for MOBAs in that its main game mode pits two teams of five players against each other in a PVP-based race to complete certain objectives. According to the lore of the game, Moba roles guide players assume the role of "summoners" in the league who will control various "champions" to comp


Most video games incorporate some sort of equipment system, and League of Legends is no exceptions. Players will find various choices for purchasing swords, boots, armor, ranged weapons, shields, and helmets. There are even items that don’t fall into any of these categories. Their use is a bit more confus


Speaking of champions who shouldn’t be able to compete in the league, there is a whole list of champions whose sole allegiance is to a mysterious realm called "The Void." The Void is essentially nothingness. It is the nightmare realm of the League of Legends unive


Shrines provide strategic assistance by restoring both mana and hit points to a hero and nearby allies with a five-minute cooldown. Knowing when to use these and when to save them is a cornerstone to high level play, as the worst mistake a player can make is use the shrine with there is no threat, too early in a skirmish, or when there is clearly an opportunity to replenish in another


Cosplayer Sonia Grillet fashioned her own set of Leona armor with fierce precision. This was her first armor build that she made back in 2015, and since then, her cosplay armor making skills have even slightly surpassed what we see h


Borderlands 3 may be a recent release, but Gearbox already has plenty of plans for the role-playing shooter . The Bloody Harvest is free for all Borderlands 3 players, and while the event hasn't begun yet, its start date will be revealed later this month. Nevertheless, a few details on the spooky event are already available: a new vendor named Maurice will appear onboard players' ships who accepts a Halloween-specific currency called Hectoplasm. New enemies will also start cropping up all over the galaxy equipped with terror debuffs to knock players off their game. Later on, players will gain access to the Bloody Harvest map; a location full of haunts and led by Captain Haunt -- and any player that beats him will score some choice Halloween-themed g
