With proper positioning, this can move fights in your favor if you’re not behind in experience considering the massive AP bonuses you should have been applying until now. Flash is an ability that can make or break the attack, so it is best to save it for a moment when you can blink into the middle of a fray and unleash the st

This is advice that can be applied to practically every gunfight. Whether they’re being met head-on or they’ve managed to get the drop on the player’s squad, smart and precise repositioning by a single squadmate can immediately flip the table on any situat

League might require a bit of grinding to unlock all the possible Champions and Runes needed, which can be frustrating. However, the good thing about the hero rotation which forces players to pick from a certain pool of heroes in the beginning is that you won’t be overwhelmed right off the

Hextech Protobelt-01: +60 ability power, +10% cooldown reduction, +300 health. Active: Unique – Fire Bolt: Dash forward dealing 75 − 150 (based on level) (+ 25% AP) magic damage on your way and behind you. After this, you fire a nova of seven fire bolts in a cone, with each bolt dealing the same magic damage. Against champions and monsters, each instance of damage beyond the first deals 90% reduced damage (40 second cooldown, shared with other Hextech items). Limitations: This dash cannot pass through terr

Building up your hero is automated by default. If you don’t “pre-order” a late-game item, the game will prompt you to buy the next affordable recommended item as soon as you have the gold. When you level up, the game will automatically apply a point to an ability. Since you can’t freely choose targets with a mouse pointer, there’s a priority system. With a click of the left stick, your hero will cycle between targeting creeps, structures, or enemy heroes. It’s all streamlined, designed for console players who probably never played a PC MOBA Team Composition. Fortunately for experienced players, it can all be turned off. Well, except for the game pad controls. The devs are planning to eventually put Genesis on PC, but have stated that they don’t plan on incorporating mouse and keyboard contr

Their first orders of business, typically, will be looting their kills and reviving their fallen squadmates. Both of these actions leave them exposed, stationary, and inattentive, making them ripe for headshots or close range ambushes that will drop them before they even know they’re being

One such mechanisms is creep pulling and managing the runes on the map to build a clear advantage overtime against your enemy. All these mechanics are hard to learn, but outwitting your enemy through these strategies is what makes DOTA2 so much more rewarding to p

Almost every Legend’s set of abilities have the potential to be game winning moves in clutch situations, but the most tactically beneficial has to be Pathfinder’s zipline and grappling hook. With these, the player –and, by extension, their squad– can claim otherwise unreachable high ground positions that are critical in spotting targets and winning gunfig

While in League the simple objective is to push to the enemy Nexus and destroy it, DOTA2 is much more strategic and cerebral in the sense that it has tons of micro-mechanisms that count towards you winning the ro

Skulltown, Singh Labs, and practically any drop site designated as a hot zone should be completely stricken from your menu as the Jumpmaster. In Ranked Mode, you’re presumably being matched with players that are every bit as good as you are, and chances are you won’t be walking out al

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

You’ll communicate more comfortably and effectively, know how to work with one another’s playstyles, and cut down on the possibility of working with dead weight or outright unfriendly partners. As a bonus, you can plan out your squad composition to maximize each squadmate’s potential. Besides, nothing’s more frustrating than winding up with a random teammate that thinks they’re better off playing as a one-man a

That may seem like a defeatist attitude, but it’s a simple matter of playing the numbers. Hot drop situations are easily the most lethal in the game, and dying there is the best way to lose those valuable ranked points. Dropping further out and later than the rest alone will likely get you into tenth place as a minimum, which scores you two ranked points just for dropping sm

Rocket League is teaming up with Stranger Things for Halloween this year for the Haunted Hallows event, which offers an Upside Down version of the Farmstead map for players to use. There’s even a great big Mind Flayer looming over the field, to give players a little extra spook. And the Halloween in-game currency, Candy Corn, can be used to acquire a bunch of new themed it
