Back in the LEC, G2 won the Summer season before moving on to the World Championship. They advanced to the Worlds play-offs, racing past DAMWON Gaming and SKT to reach the Grand Final. Though FunPlus Phoenix took home the Worlds title, G2 Esports had a formidable year. PerkZ was a massive part of G2’s legendary run, in which they stood just one series away from a never-before-done grand slam. He fit into the AD carry role nicely, holding his own against the game’s b
Instead of the 4 standard abilities that most champions have, Aphelios has 5 weapons that he equips throughout the game. He holds a main weapon and an off-hand weapon which alter his basic attack and abilities. While his kit can be extremely confusing, his versatility can give players the opportunity to outplay their opponents in any situation. This MOBA ranked guide will help players learn all of the basics that Aphelios needs to dominate the R
It’s been an altogether different story for DC. Though they did get off to a good start with Man of Steel , Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice wasn’t the hit DC was expecting, nor was it received well by critics. Suicide Squad performed well at the box office, but garnered a lukewarm critical response. Wonder Woman , on the other hand, was a huge critical and commercial success, and was the first sign that DC didn’t have to rely solely on Batman and Superman anymore. That being said, things didn’t turn around for DC — at least not yet. Its next movie, Justice League , was its biggest movie to date — and its biggest failure. Justice League was declared a disaster . Things have improved since then, and DC has managed to build what may prove to be an exciting list of movies to be released over the next three ye
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
Genesis opens by explaining that humans and aliens teamed up to go through a portal in space. There are unknown dangers on the other side, which warranted the formation of a group of specialized individuals. Right after, you’re dropped onto a single-lane bridge and put in control of the beginner-friendly archer hero. Sound familiar? I immediately had flashbacks to the League of Legends tutorial. Genesis does try to set itself apart by focusing more on story. The tutorial introduces mysterious aliens that attack our alliance of heroes. What they are, and why they’re hostile, is a matter for the campaign. Oh yeah, there’s a full-on campaign mode. Too bad it doesn’t work at the moment, an issue the devs are actively fixi
While sniping wasn’t incredibly popular at launch, it’s become increasingly prevalent with balancing changes that have exponentially increased its lethality. Being stuck behind cover with no recourse as an enemy squad rains fire from afar is one of the worst situations to be in, and the simple solution is to ensure that one can respond in k
Aquaman 2 , Wonder Woman 1984 , Birds of Prey , The Suicide Squad , Black Adam , and The Batman are all pulling DC in different directions, and that’s the best thing for the studio. After all, it’s part of what’s driving the popularity of the MCU. DC is infusing its projects with talented directors like James Gunn and Matt Reeves, whom are sure to bring their own creative style to their movies, with differing results. Also, the characters DC are using are exactly the ones fans have been requesting, such as the long-awaited Black Adam , another Batman, and more Harley Qu
As 2019 comes to a close, esports fans are left to reflect on the best competitive moments of the past year. Jaw-dropping plays, unbelievable tournament runs, and shocking levels of consistency from the world’s best players. Five of the biggest esports titles saw their biggest talents rise to the top, taking their rightful places as some of the best players in the wo
Even having just one squadmate kitted out with a sniper rifle opens up a bevy of tactical options. Out sniping the other team doesn’t necessarily need to be the name of the game, either. One squadmate returning fire to draw attention while the other two find routes to flank or close the gap is a remarkably effective strat
Marvel fans are eagerly anticipating the next Spider-Man movie, especially since it once looked as if the wall-crawler was being completely cut out of the MCU. There’s also a fair bit of hype surrounding Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder , which will have Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster pick up the hammer. Black Widow is generating interest as well, but there’s a feeling from some that the movie has come too l
