_League of Legends _ is receiving its second moody samurai with the release of the game's newest champion, Yone (yo-nay). Brother to Yasuo, the premier swordsman of Summoner's Rift, Yone brings an alternative, though not dissimilar playstyle to players looking to spend their time mastering the bl

Bardle Royale is of course a pun on the extremely popular Battle Royale genre. In Nexus Blitz there are 3 different variations of Bardle Royale. The first variation is classic where a ring of fire encloses on an area of the map, the two teams must battle it out until only one team is left standing. The second variation is Paranoia, where both teams must still fight in the enclosing circle, but all players are nearsighted for the duration of the event. The last variation is Juggernaut. One random Champion on each team is selected to have extra health and be On Fire! for the duration of the event. These two players receive bonuses to attack speed, adaptive power, and mana regeneration but are more vulnerable to damage. In all three variations, teamwork is key, but in Juggernaut especially you will have to focus the enemy juggernaut as a team before you can pick off the r

Much like Cho'Gath, Kha'Zix hails from the void, but he is by no means a tank. This giant praying mantis is an assassin who stalks the jungle, and he does this by jumping around and turning invisible for a t

Additionally, OG announced that its position-three player Jesse "JerAx" Vainikka will be spending his days off the stage. JerAx has officially retired from professional Dota 2 and will not be on the front line of OG's active roster. He hasn't left the organization, but he will be supporting from the sideli

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 strategy 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

The latest additional game mode is the highly requested Nexus Blitz, which is kind of a mix of both ARAM and Summoner's Rift. This isn't the first time this game mode has appeared, but its back with a new map and some other fun changes. Unfortunately, the game mode isn't here to stay and is only in beta mode. It seems Riot Games wants to reserve Nexus Blitz for occasional events and is currently looking for player feedback on the fledgling mode. Currently, Nexus Blitz still has the same base objective as both ARAM and Summoner's Rift, but every few minutes there is a mini-game event that both teams participate in. The team that wins the event gets a random bonus of some sort to benefit their team. So if you need a game mode to relax with after some intense ranked matches, stay tuned and this guide will show you how to play Nexus Bl

In the past, Ana has had problems trying to find himself. He's gone through thick and thin to find the passion of playing Dota 2 after winning the International 2018 and has pushed himself over his mental limits. It was because of his strive to be the player OG needed that he shined at the next big tournament, which was the International 2019. Although JerAx never expressed the same issues during both Internationals, his interview with OG has filled out the blanks of his retirem
