As discussed earlier, Leona is best played as an aggressive support that takes advantage of enemies that are alone or have stepped up too close to the minion wave. As a support, she is best played bottom lane with a preferably ranged ADC that is willing to combo with Leona when she dives aggressively. In lane, you're going to want to harass the enemy ADC with Zenith Blade whenever they are alone or trying to last hit a minion . If you don't have wards and an enemy is missing, hide in the brush beside the river to provide vision for your ADC and then punish any enemy junglers that are come to tank. Leona has a ton of wave clear with Eclipse and Zenith Blade, so it is okay to be aggressive and push lane to the enemy tower. This kind of play will also synergize well with Demolish as you can do a lot of damage to the enemy towers early on. Clearing and pushing the wave also provides Leona with the opportunity to leave the lane and help out middle or top. Thanks to her Boots of Mobility, she can rotate to other lanes and easily engage the enemy from the brush. In the middle to late-game, Leona will excel at tanking damage and providing crowd control. Use her abilities to get right into the middle of the fight and draw attention away from your team. Then, use her Shield of Daybreak or Solar Flare to deal damage while immobilizing the enemy ADC. If Leona is in the absolute thick of it, use Eclipse and Gargoyle Stoneplate to tank the enemy team's damage output and let your team clean them
The game has a lot of champions to choose from as well, each with their own special abilities. With its five-vs-five format, Paladins allows for smaller team compositions than Overwatch but also has more champions to select from. With over 40 champions, the team composition possibilities are endl
The most complex champion on this list, Aphelios at a ban rate between 15% and 48% depending on rank. This champion is fairly locked in as a bottom-lane ranged assassin, but his unique ability to change weapons gives him everything from range, to crowd control, to even turret damage to hold his lane position. He's a common pick for pro-play
Similar to Monster Hunter: World, Dauntless is a co-op game that groups together four players against a giant beast. The game's RPG elements make it all the more exciting to take down giant elemental beasts with other players. Players can customize their character to their liking, and equip him with their weapon of cho
Stixxay also spoke of his former teammate and current Team SoloMid support, Vincent "Biofrost" Wang, saying, "I think it took a while for me and Bio to be good, or close as a bot lane... He kinda has the brain of an AD carry player, I feel like and not so much as a support. So, he’s really good at mechanical things or small things that other supports don’t
Stixxay talked about some of what he learned from his past bot lane partners. Speaking of aphromoo, who was his first-ever support in the LCS, Stixxay praised him for being a "personable" leader. "If I was in distress or I felt like I didn’t know what was going on with the team, he was always the guy that I’d message late at night and be like, ‘Yo, can you help me work through this because I just don’t know what’s going
Similar to Smash Bros, Brawlhalla is a free-fighting platformer MOBA game advanced tactics where players score by knocking their opponents out of bounds. Players can damage enemies with hits, combos, and various weapons to increase their opponent's knockback. The higher the knockback of a player, the further he gets sent flying when
Two basic but important combos with Leona are her basic attack reset and her full combo with all her abilities. Since Leona's Shield of Daybreak is a basic attack reset, you can follow up a basic attack with it and then also follow up the shield attack with another basic attack. First, right click an enemy and then use Shield of Daybreak to immediately hit them again. After the Shield hit, use your basic attack again which will result in 3 quick hits. Use this combo after Zenith Blading to an enemy or when destroying wards in the brush. For her full combo, either start with Solar Flare to stun enemies at a range, or use Zenith Blade to root them, then follow up with Shield of Daybreak and Eclipse. Since the enemy should be fairly immobile, it will be easy to land Solar Flare if you didn't already start with
They wanted to take everything, and they ended up getting nothing, as the remaining Excel members jumped onto the three Misfits players in the mid lane and forced everyone else away from their objectives. Misfits has the potential to be a top tier team, but they're just not at that level
"I think something as simple as stretching and doing something that’s not waking up, sitting in your chair, and going straight into scrims is really helpful. It just helps your mindset a lot," added Stix
Rogue’s first place summer regular-season finish can largely be credited towards Larssen’s evolution throughout the year. The second-year mid laner began competing with the likes of Caps. His growth towards an aggressive playstyle led to an 86 kill summer split, tied for first with G2’s mid laner. His ability to hard carry late-game fights on champions like Corki made Rogue a dominant force in the LEC. Larssen is the key if Rogue hopes to get out of a group with DAMWON and
