Breaking Down Dota 2 Patch 7.26a

In Nexus Blitz you are able to pick a champion for yourself and one champion to ban the enemy team from picking. Good bans include those who do a lot of AOE damage such as Katarina and Miss Fortune. On the other hand, try to pick Champions that excel in AOE because you will be in team-fights almost constantly. A good choice for beginners may be Garen , who gets stronger with each fight. Each team also requires two junglers, but the laning/jungling phase is incredibly short so Champions are still best picked in regards to their fighting ability. The laning phase is short because of the map's design and also because of the mini-game events every few minutes. Unlike the classic three-lane map in Summoner's Rift, Nexus Blitz's map is horizontal and only has a middle and bot lane with the top dedicated to jungling. The map is also pretty tight which puts players in close proximity with the enemy. When most players are getting level 5 or 6, the countdown to the first mini-MOBA Game Advanced Tactics will start and the game begins to devolve into constant team-fighting chaos. After this point, junglers leave the jungle and begin to help push middle lane since events occur frequently and often in the middle l


While some Champions in _League of Legends _ prefer to deal damage from the sidelines or channel helpful spells, Garen is a Champion that likes to be in the thick of it, swinging and slamming his sword in a dizzying dance of dam


As usual, there is quite a bit to read in the 7.26a patch notes, and readers can click here for the full announcement. Best of luck to everyone and keep an eye out for players who may be overextending themselves with these new changes, as they likely have not read the notes and are ripe for a quick kill until they figure it


Garen's ability, Courage, is both his second active and second passive ability. The passive ability is a permanent buff granted to Garen for slaying enemies. For every unit killed by Garen, his armor and magic resistance increase by 0.25 points until he reaches a total of 30 points. Once at 30 points (or stacks) Garen will gain an additional 10% increase to both his armor and magic resistance stats. Courage's active protects Garen by reducing all incoming damage by 30% for a few seconds and during the first 0.75 seconds of the ability being active, Garen is also granted a bonus shield and 60% Tenacity. Tenacity decreases the time Garen is affected by crowd control abilities based on the percentage of Tenacity, which can help prevent Garen from being locked down or kited. Use Courage's active ability during Judgement or immediately after if you expect to be hit hard by enem


Zoom does everything JDG requires him to at near perfection. If JDG needs hard engage and a frontline, Zoom will play the best Ornn in the world. If JDG needs top lane domination, Zoom does exactly that on Renekton and Camille. There is no variance with Zoom and in a region that has plenty of instability, Zoom’s stability lands him as the best top laner in the wo


Instead of traditional missions, 10 Spirit Bonds will be forged during Spirit Blossom 2020. To start, players need to click on each champion's picture to meet them and begin earning favor, the point system for different rewards. Make sure to talk to all the available portraits immediately since favor won't count for champions that haven't been spoken


This was a very controversial rework in the LoL community. Though he has seen a great deal of competitive play in this year’s LCS, LCK, and LEC , the fun factor of playing him has dropped sharply. His new appearance, for starters, is quite underwhelming. He is white and gold just like a character from the abandoned game Paragon who, curiously, has a similar ultimate to the reworked Galio�


Riot has a habit of prioritizing competitive play, as well as debuting champions that immediately get nerfed . Ahead of planned 2021 season changes , which champions desperately need reworks to function in the new game meta? Moreover, which ones do fans wish Riot had left al


Garen's first active ability, Decisive Strike, give Garen a short boost in movement speed and physical damage when targeting an enemy with the ability. When Decisive Strike is cast, Garen is freed from all slows afflicting him and his next basic attack will silence the target for 1.5 seconds. When this ability is performed correctly, Garen will do a small jump up in the air and do a slam attack on the opponent being targeted. This ability is great for dealing quick damage to an enemy in a lane or securing a minion or canon last hit. It can also be used on towers to deal extra physical dam


He also lacks a key thing many currently popular junglers have: smite/ability steal capabilities. With the increasing importance Riot places on Dragon and Rift Herald, a jungler with no real way to cause or prevent enemy team objective theft has no place on the R


To put it frankly, G2 may not have made the playoffs were it not for Caps’ MVP season. Even after six straight domestic titles, an MSI victory, and back to back World’s Finals appearances, Caps continues to find ways to impress. In a region famous for its mid laners, Caps stands above. He comes into the tournament with hopes for a third shot at the title and to finally prove the best player in the world does not have to come from the e
