SKT T1 finished the Summer Split in third place and still managed to qualify for Worlds due to their Spring performance. After overcoming their rivals, the Rox Tigers, in the semi-finals, SKT T1 went on to defeat Samsung Galaxy, securing their second consecutive World Championship title and third franchise ti
In 2018, for the first time since 2012, a Korean League of Legends team would not hoist the Summoners Cup. After years and years of falling short, a team from China would finally take home the championship trophy. At the time, Invictus Gaming's roster consisted of TheShy/Duke, Ning, Rookie, JackeyLove, and Bao
The Teamfight Tactics Fates Championship will take place from April 7 to April 9, 2021, and will feature a new three-day Swiss format. While official times will be announced closer to the Championship, if the format follows any of the regional qualifiers for the game, then coverage will most likely begin around 6PM CT each day. Fans will be able to watch all the action unfold on the official Twitch for Riot Games, plus plenty of co-stre
The Worlds winning roster consisted of Nuguri, Canyon, ShowMaker, newcomer Ghost, and Beryl. DAMWON Gaming only dropped three games in the entire tournament; not to mention they had only lost twice in the LCK Summer Split including Playoffs. After 2 years of defeat, Korean dominance had returned in full force for the 2020 champions
Any player who’s endured solo queuing is plenty familiar with what a feeder looks like. Some players either just aren’t as skilled at a powerful champion as you’d wish them to be, while others can intentionally disrupt games with no regard for your team's safety or succ
Those feelings are undoubtedly what makes this movie poster recreation both remarkably ridiculous and disappointingly true. One loss is far from the end of the world, but dealing with a player who ruins your game is easily one of the most relatable feelings throughout the g
Prizes are determined by each competitors' placement based on points earned. The $250,000 prize pool will be split up among all 24 players, with the Champion winning a whopping $41,500. A full prize breakdown is as foll
Nonetheless, this meme exists to showcase the brighter sides of it. It’s fairly unclear whether the humble warrior is giving the lane to this smurf, or if they’re grateful to be playing it despite the smurf player asking, but either way, it’s refreshing to see a positive exchange with someone making such bold claims about their skill le
This makes it extremely entertaining for some and exceptionally frustrating for others, being a great place for independent players who love playing against a wide variety of champions. Fans have been making endless memes over the past decade of the game’s history surrounding just the tribulations lane, as well as some over the champions that call it h
Following up Seeker's Armguard is its upgrade, Zhonya's Hourglass. Stopwatch is included here as well since every class of character can make use of the item. Stopwatch, on its own, gives absolutely no stats at a cost of 600 gold. The rune "Perfect Timing" also grants the player a free Stopwatch after a period of time. This item can be combined into a variety of items, including the famous Zhonya's Hourgl
The strength of Plated Steelcaps is easy to see. The item's unique passive reduces incoming damage from all basic attacks by 12%, excluding turret attacks. This also includes damage dealt by basic attack modifiers and abilities that act like a basic attack, even magic ones. The strength of this item is obvious; every champion uses auto-attacks in some form. While the item scales better with more armor, against hyper-carries and AD teams the item is too good to pass
Although SKT T1 had beaten Royal Club in the 2013 Worlds finals, the renamed Star Horn Royal Club and their marksman, Uzi, were back with a vengeance. Star Horn Royal Club and their refreshed roster decimated NaJin White Shield in the quarter-finals before beating OMG in the semi-finals. This meant taking them to consecutive Worlds fin
As great as these events are though, League of Legends has done an incredible job of creating a consistent show with its LCS to create constant content for League of Legends esports players to watch. The production quality on this game's tournaments has always been through the roof and is incredibly addictive to keep up with if you know what's going
The Teamfight Tactics Fates set launched soon after the previous Galaxies Championship, and brought about several changes to the game in terms of champions, Origins, and synergies. Championships are played on the live patch, and Riot has release a minor patch in anticipation of the Fates Championship next month to bring the game into a more balanced st
This roster of IG is noteworthy for playing the game with a fight-first mentality aiding in coining the term "LPL Aggression" by analysts and casters. The ultimate caveat of Invictus Gaming winning this world title is that they had virtually no path of resistance past defeating tournament favorites, KT Rolster, in the quarterfin
