The Hidden Stories Within Legends of Runeterra's Cards

For old school League players , this entry should come as no surprise. Unlike the support items today, all three of these items give passive gold over time. They were initially for supports, but mostly every lane started buying them. Because of the passive or the item is in the build tree for another item, they give tons of gold with no coun

05xkUiWXctfDE2zjSyTyABm-2..v1765317607.jpgFrom within the depths of the Shadow Isles, there is a great tragedy; the tragedy of the Hapless Aristocrat. This story is far less wholesome or inspiring than that of Cithria’s. It all begins with the card "Arachnoid Sentry," with a gentleman caller approaching a house with a smug grin and four roses. From the card’s flavor text it’s revealed that he’s expecting dinner with some woman he’s fallen hopelessly in love with. But instead of being greeted by a beautiful woman at the door, he’s face to face with a giant spider and everything begins to unravel from th

He's one of the most storied players in League of Legends, as well as the face of the Fnatic franchise. Although Rekkles and his teammates inarguably had an up and down year, the European titans did end up making it to both the spring and summer finals, even if they wound up getting swept both times by G2. Rekkles is a proven commodity. He's demonstrated the ability to pop off at any moment, with the talent to completely turn the tides of a game. Rekkles will go into Worlds 2020 geared up and ready, as he always d

The champion who is often associated with "200 years" has been facing some adversity as of late. As one of the most heavily contested champions in the meta currently, Apehlios has gone 2-6 in its last 8 games in the

Zoom does everything JDG requires him to at near perfection. If JDG needs hard engage and a frontline, Zoom will play the best Ornn in the world. If JDG needs top lane domination, Zoom does exactly that on Renekton and Camille. There is no variance with Zoom and in a region that has plenty of instability, Zoom’s stability lands him as the best top laner in the wo

Draven players love his ADC potential thanks to his innate abilities. He boasts great burst damage coupled with great movespeed, although players have a hard time juggling and positioning. His Passive - League of Draven allows him to gain stacks when he kills anything, and extra gold for killing Champi

Q - Broken Wings allows her to dash-attack towards a target for up to three times, each giving Runic Blade charges. Her W - Ki Burst lets her emit a stun field around her, while E - Valor gives her a shield as she dashes forward. Lastly, Ult - Blade of the Exile gives her buffs, increases the area of Q and W, and even give her a powerful cone-attack Wind Sl

Older players got to experience this item's power and know why it was quickly removed. Before the start of season three, Madred's Bloodrazor continues to dominate the rift. A very high-cost item but allows each basic attack to deal 4% of the target's maximum health as bonus magic damage. Pairing with a 40% attack speed makes this item extremely powerful. Primarily built on champions with AD, it allows them to destroy tanks who stack armor resist because of the bonus magic damage. Along with the odd stats it has, it wasn't easy to play against and is why it makes the l

The Banner of Command has one, if not the longest line of changes in LoL history. One point in the items life it could buff a minion, granting it extra stats. Buffing a any minion increases is damage by 100%, armor and magic resist, attack range, and health. It also gives the gold for its kills to the caster. At one point, this buff made the minion immune to magic damage but changes it to damage reduction in future patches. This item has massive sieging power and combining with ZZ'Rot Portal ; it gives so much power and survivability to split push

The new cards come with a wide array of interesting characters and beautiful art to ma

As a result, bulkier items like the Sunfire Cape and Adaptive Helm are things of the past. Getting some health and defensive stats through an offensive item, however, will make you just as indestructible as some tanks, making Fiora nearly as sustainable as health-based champions like Zac. For those that like tanks, though, it can be undoubtedly disappoint

His Q - Sonic Wave/Resonating Strike allows him to close the gap between him and enemies, as it can become both a projectile and a dash spell. Moreover, W - Safeguard/Iron Will enables him to get great sustain while jungling. E - Tempest/Cripple gives Lee Sin decent crowd control, which is perfect for defense. Meanwhile, Ult - Dragon's Rage grants Lee Sin a great knockback ability — perfect to send enemies to his teamma
