Pokémon Unite has another challenge in the form of its platforms, being the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. With fast-paced multiplayer action games, these platforms can struggle with too many confusing and conflicting mechanics, so it's important to ensure characters and their moves are easy to cont

After being deemed worthy by the Arbiter, Tyari becomes "The Traveler," and is the first confirmed transgender character within the League of Legend s canon, no longer using he/him pronouns. Like Cithria, this story serves to inspire and is very satisfying when learning of its conclusion. Tyari has traveled far to become the person she always knew that she

Though not great as a solo-carry champion like Darius, Yuumi may be the right champion for you if you have a dedicated ranked duo team or bottom lane pair. Her synergy with specific team comps is what earns her a ~29% ban r

Making sure these are priced properly, though, is something that took League quite a while to figure out. Many early skins are quite unexciting recolors, while newer ones typically have new particle effects and animations at similar prices. Pokémon Unite ’s microtransactions should certainly be around cosmetics at most, but their quality must be worth their pr

However, there's a fun layer of story to the game's world that the average player might not know. Hidden within the cards of Legends of Runtterra, players can often find stories that are linked through the games card art and flavor t

Turns out lady Elise had other plans for our poor Hapless Aristocrat. The next part of the story takes place within Elise’s Champion art , where she leads him to a dark cave and reveals her true form to him, that of a giant spider. However, this would not be the end of the Hapless Aristocrat, as somehow he escaped Elise’s mansion and avoided becoming her din

With about 150 different champions and balance changes every week, the competitive metagame of League of Legends can be difficult to navigate. Everything from the simplicity of a character to deep strategies can alter who you might want to play, or who you’ll expect to play agai

The top lane has changed drastically in the past few years, much thanks to a greater diversity of archetypes that can fit into each role. While the top lane used to be mostly populated by heavy tanks, this meme successfully illustrates how some of the game’s best current top laners are vicious fighters with an alarming amount of speed and dam

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

Pokémon games can be quite confusing in terms of how its stats function, with surprisingly little of it being properly explained in the games themselves. There are several different attack & defense stats and all sorts of other effects that that usually need to be researched online to fully understand, as well as how much certain items and abilities will affect each s

League of Legends has always had this problem as well, with certain items and abilities having a confusing amount of detail while effects like Grievous Wounds aren’t always properly explained on every item. Complex mechanics are natural in the MOBA game Walkthrough genre, but making sure everything is legible, especially for smaller mobile devices, is vi

To put it frankly, G2 may not have made the playoffs were it not for Caps’ MVP season. Even after six straight domestic titles, an MSI victory, and back to back World’s Finals appearances, Caps continues to find ways to impress. In a region famous for its mid laners, Caps stands above. He comes into the tournament with hopes for a third shot at the title and to finally prove the best player in the world does not have to come from the e

Canyon spent the summer split proving that he is the best Jungler in Korea. His flexibility opens DAMWON's drafts and playstyles, preventing the team from being predictable. Mechanically, he can go toe to toe with the best. Canyon’s ability to both enable Showmaker and Nuguri while also inhibiting enemy junglers led Damwon to dominate the summer split, and potentially the international st

Since Pokémon Unite won’t contain as much in the way of custom movesets as a typical Pokémon team, having this sort of consistent way to customize stats and give additional abilities adds tons of depth to each character. Trees can’t be too large or daunting for new players, but this feature offers far more tools to play w

Last but certainly not least, there's the story of Tyari, the tale of a group of travelers braving the intense climb of mount Targon. These cards were released as part of the Call of the Mountain expansion back in August. The story begins in "Gift Giver," where a kind woman is seen giving a group of climbers necklaces made of gems that are to protect them on their ascent up the mount
