A quick Google search brings up several platforms for esports coaching. Among the most notable is Gamer Sensei , which gaming hardware company Corsair purchased late last year. Still, with its sleek, black design and easy-to-navigate interface, it’s no surprise that Metafy has captured the attention of people such as Naval Ravikant (co-founder and former CEO of AngelList ), Matt Cooper (CEO of Skillshare ), who helped fund a $3 million seed investment round in Janu


The platform allowed me to choose from several different coaches. I chose Rafael " bowswer " Canadas , a professional Apex Legends player who had impressive placements in a number of tournaments , including the Electronic Arts -endorsed Apex Legends Global Series. Canadas offers $20 one-hour sessions for players who predominantly want help with public games and $30 for those who want to improve at ranked games, where the caliber of play is significantly hig


In the 2013 World Championship finals, SKT T1 faced Royal Club in the finals. Tt was the battle of prodigies: the notorious unkillable demon king, Faker, vs. the greatest marksman to grace Summoners Rift, Uzi. This iconic series was the crucible that forged the Chinese Vs. Korean team rivalry in league Of legends guide of Lege


TPA qualified for 2012 Worlds by clean sweeping every single team in Taiwan during the Season 2 Regionals in Taipei. Coming into the 2012 World Championship they were viewed as the dark horse of the tournament with most analysts predicting lackluster results considering their prior show game loss to CLG

Because there are so many variables that change up the gameplay, such as changes to skill-based matchmaking based on whether a person is playing solo or with a squad and limited-time modes, it’s hard to offer a clear before-and-after compari


As a part of the Spirit Blossom event, Riot debuted a host of themed skins including this one for Thresh. Curiously, it shows Thresh in a somewhat human form and players could chat with the arbiter of death in a LoL client mini-g

This hilarious meme paints quite an unfortunate picture: just when you've finally tracked down and defeated Teemo, you go to flee the scene and step on a Noxious Trap. It promptly explodes and deals enough damage to finish off both you and your teamm


I left the session feeling overall positive and quickly signed up for another session. For our second lesson, Canadas ran down my in-game graphic settings with me. He recommended turning some of the game’s graphic enhancements down, noting that things like V-Sync can cause delays that are mere miliseconds, but are enough to impact gamep


Chemtech Putrifier is just that item. Its passive, Puffcap Toxin, empowers allies on healing and shielding effects with the ability to inflict Grievous Wounds. Enchanters, particularly those with a Moonstone Renewer, will be able to apply this passive multiple times in an extended fight, guaranteeing Grievous Wound uptime. Most importantly, this also allows allies to not have to waste an item slot on a weaker item. Putrifier is a powerful tool, and one enchanters can utilize perfec


It's impossible to talk about either of these games without mentioning the competitive scene surrounding them. Both titles have highlighted some of the biggest events in gaming history. Few are bigger than The International -- the annual world championship for Dota 2 with increasingly obscene amounts of money on the l


This is much because the game has built off a long legacy of Warcraft and its own roots as an original game. Any new cosmetic elements tend to fit the game's aesthetic smoothly and easily with few different styles clashing in most ga


Further, it feels good knowing my money is going directly to the coach, allowing them to continue doing what they love. While revenue from tournaments, streaming, and YouTube can help, most players won’t be able to live off of those sources of income alone. Coaching provides them another opportunity to gain income for their years of hard w


This means the game is almost always fresh and returning to it after a year or two means you'll likely not be experiencing something similar to when you originally played. It's an entirely new world with new looks and new gameplay, but the same base goal of destroying towers and defending la


Beyond a recolor, the emote was doubly hilarious since it now has Nautilus literally swimming through space in a spacesuit. The skin also has a reactive helmet that makes a cute face when Nautilus laughs. Though the skin received a graphical update in 2015, it remains pretty much the same as it was at lau


For one in-game fight in particular, I recalled that I’d felt a sense of panic in terms of not knowing what I should have done when squeezed between two squads. After reviewing the footage with me, he explained that this was a case where having dropped back to get cover hurt me when I could have taken the fight head-on with my teammate. He also suggested that I’d also used the wrong type of grenade — a thermite grenade — as a frag grenade would have been much better to achieve my goal of forcing the team to have to reposit
