League of Legends ' expansion was emphasized earlier this week with a new cinematic story trailer for Ruined King: A League of Legends Story . Alongside the other untitled projects that Riot Games announced last year, Ruined King will be a single-player RPG set in the League of Legends universe. Players will add several iconic characters from the base game (Miss Fortune, Ahri, Illaoi, Yasuo, Braum, and Pyke) into their party as they explore the Shadow Isles. Slated to release early next year, it's the first of several ambitious projects set in the League of Legends universe to expand the story of Riot Games' now-iconic M

Recall that Riot Games did not want to do a mobile version at all unless it could be true to their vision of what League of Legends is all about. They left money on the table so as not to water down their product. While there are some changes that have to be made when playing on devices that are so wildly different from PCs, you should take some comfort in knowing that the intentions behind these alterations appear to have been for the b

This, of course, does change the dynamic about ganking quite a bit. Vision wards are more critical to success than ever since it's relatively easy for a player to gank another lane before the opponent notices they're miss

Who's to say League of Legends players are going to come out in droves for Ruined King ? Plenty of players have jumped on the Valorant train, but that's not exactly a direct correlation to League of Legends ' success. Apex Legends could certainly try it, but don't expect Respawn Entertainment to announce six different spin-off games like Riot Games

At the end of last year, Riot Games announced an effort to expand the League of Legends IP beyond its MOBA roots. Acquiring and partnering with several third-party studios, Riot Games' new initiative for its 10th anniversary has spawned a League of Legends fighting game, a popular FPS called Valorant , a collectible card game called Legends of Runeterra , and even a business/management sim for LoL esports. The League of Legends universe will soon reach far beyond the base game into a ton of new gaming experiences, a sentiment that Respawn Entertainment recently expressed with the hit battle royale Apex Legends as w

No matter what, if the late game goes on long enough, Ahri will begin to fall off. As such, she will begin to lack in one-versus-one potential . Try to end the game as fast as possible by rushing down towers quickly and initiating team fights ea

Whether he was used in Mid Lane or as a support, Brand Combat Tips was difficult to deal with because his burning effects were enhanced by Liandry's Torment. Riot now calls this item Liandry's Anguish, and the developed turned it into a Mythic item that is even more powerful than it was a season

Nexus has no inhibitor or turrets around it.

While the turrets on the outskirts remain in place for each of the three lanes, that is the last line of defense before getting to the Nexus . The Nexus itself does have a small targeted attack, but there no longer needs to be a concerted effort to take down any inhibitor or turrets after breaking through a l

Ahri is a feast or famine type champion. She can either carry her team to victory or feed the enemy the win instead. Because of this, the early game is extremely important. There are a large number of things to know in order to play League of Legends properly. However, the most important one for Ahri is appropriately harassing the opponent. This can be achieved by using her Q, Orb of Deception. This ability is what carries Ahri through the early g

The reveal of Spider-Man: Miles Morales was great, as it came with a flurry of awesome announcements at the PlayStation 5 reveal event. But it was the gameplay demo from a few months later that really showcased what the game was all about. Leading up to the release of the web-slinging title, many wondered how long it would take to beat Spider-Man: Miles Morales , if it was a true sequel, or even if it would simply take place in the same New York C

Perhaps it'd be interesting to see how the Apex Legends community responds to the idea of spin-off titles, and whether it'd be a worthy venture for Respawn Entertainment and/or EA. At a glance, Apex Legends and Titanfall bring enough to the table lore-wise for this to be absolutely possible, but it's a matter of gauging whether the interest is there. Somehow mixing the whimsical nature of Apex Legends ' lore with the seriousness of Titanfall could be an interesting experim

Second, this isn't the firsttime Seraphine has been allegedly inspired by a real person. Jeevun Sidhu, a senior designer at Riot, tweeted out that the character is actually based on his partner - something that Stephanie has acknowledged . When that story went around, though, Riot didn't issue some weak tea statement about the character not being based on anybody. It was only when they were called out by very compelling evidence that they said literally anything about it, likely in fear over another Edgar Davids situati
