ague of Legends Champion Guide: Leona (The Radiant Dawn)

Riven fans love this Champion for her mobility and capability to punish entire teams during late-game. Unfortunately, despite her easy-to-use (almost predictable) nature, she can become difficult to master. Her Passive - Runic Blade gives her charges whenever she uses an ability, all of which enhances her autoatta

Leona's second active, Eclipse, casts a solar eclipse around Leona that protects her for 3 seconds. Eclipse provides a flat damage reduction while also providing bonus armor and magic resistance. If enemies are within the AOE radius of Eclipse when it runs out, magic damage based on Leona's level is dealt to them and Leona receives damage reduction and bonus resistances for another 3 seconds. This ability is best used after flashing into the middle of a fight or after using Zenith Blade to jump onto an enemy. Leona' will want to be as close to the enemy champs as she can when activating the ability because it is ideal to deal the magic damage from the detonation and also prolong her protection. However, 3 seconds is more than enough time for an opponent to flash away to safety so make sure you're right in the thick of the battle when you activate this abil

Force of Nature was an essential item for tanks, due to the amount of self-sustaining healing it gives. This item regenerates 1.5% of your max HP every second, which provides an insane regeneration on top of an additional 200% base regen it also gives. Building Force of Nature with items like Warmog's Armor and Spirit Visage makes tanks nearly unkillable without anti-healing items. Later, Force of Nature's passive transfers to Warmog's Armor , and then removed. These items brought about the first tank meta in League of Legen

Ekko has had a fair bit of time to fit into the game since his release last year but with bannings in 28% of games, he seems to be something people fear. With lots of crowd control in the form of stuns and slows, it’s easy to get nervous around him and just want to avoid him entir

What makes her more ban-worthy is just the mass of ability power damage she can do, exploding with her abilities any time she gets close to you. It isn’t as complicated to deal with as Ekko, but raw damage is something to be fea

Leona's abilities are geared towards getting in the middle of the fight and using crowd control abilities to allow her teammates to land their damage. Here is a basic overview of her abilities and when she might benefit from using 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

Some good optional items for Garen include those items which further reduce cooldown, improve armor or magic resistance, increase health, increase armor penetration, and boost movement speed. Death's Dance provides all of the above except movement speed but instead provides an extra heal and 30% damage delay. Duskblade of Draktharr is also a great optional item for Garen that gives cooldown reduction and extra armor penetration. Duskblade of Draktharr's passive, Nightstalker, can be paired with a Decisive Strike from the shadows to deal massive basic attack damage. It is also important to note that building items that increase movement speed can sometimes provide greater attack damage than just purchasing a straightforward attack damage item. This is because the extra movement speed will allow Garen to chase his foes and stay on top of them longer to get more hits

Garen's first active ability, Decisive Strike, give Garen a short boost in movement speed and physical damage when targeting an enemy with the ability. When Decisive Strike is cast, Garen is freed from all slows afflicting him and his next basic attack will silence the target for 1.5 seconds. When this ability is performed correctly, Garen will do a small jump up in the air and do a slam attack on the opponent being targeted. This ability is great for dealing quick damage to an enemy in a lane or securing a minion or Mobagamezone.comcanon last hit. It can also be used on towers to deal extra physical dam

Caitlyn might seem squishy for an ADC. After all, Caitlyn serves as the Champion with the longest range in the entire game, surpassed only by some in the late game. Either way, despite her simple skillset, Caitlyn can deal damage from afar without worrying about her saf

Subsequently, OG also revealed their first out of lane branching team named OG CS: GO, which is comprised of the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players in the world. The team's most recent accomplishment was way back in December, wherein the team placed third and pocketed $21.5 thousand. A new front may be in the making for

rubiks-cube-rubik-s-cube-cube-cubes.jpgDuring the Early-Mid game you will want to grab your first essential item which will be the Gargoyle Stoneplate. This item will provide much needed passive resistances as well as its active will allow you to increase your max HP by 100% for 4 seconds which can be vital when in the middle of a fight. However, at this point Leona's max HP is kind of low so it would be smart to turn the early game Kindlegem into a Knight's Vow which synergizes really well with a support play-style. Knight's Vow will allow you to designate an ally champion as your partner and grant you bonuses if you are within range of t
