Similarly, the gameplay updates modernized both champions without alienating the fans who grew to love them over the years. Fiddlesticks still has an AOE Crowstorm and targeted fear, yet causes even greater chaos by chain CCing then draining the life from multiple enemies during a teamfight. Volibear no longer flips his foes, but truly lives up to the fantasy of a savage bear god mauling foes with thunderous strength. Either one plays just like before, only with new tricks and skill expression that let them stand up the current ros
Lore continues to expand and grow alongside the popularity of Apex Legends , which still boasts several million active players and is consistently a top 20 game on Twitch. With each new character and season has come new cinematics and lore entries detailing the world of the popular battle royale title. Now, Respawn Entertainment and EA have the opportunity to potentially expand the Apex Legends world outward into various other gameplay experiences. There's enough lore and background material that could make a similar expansion plan feasible, but it's unclear if Apex Legends ' lore has as much staying power as League of Legends d
Even if Chief found a way to destroy every single Champion in Runeterra, he would still have to deal with Kindred, and he has literally no chance of beating them. Kindred is the embodiment of death, which essentially means that they cannot be kil
The number of new champions this year may be lower than usual, but they can be considered successful for different reasons. Each one maintains a good play rate in certain roles, with Sett distinctly being flexed as a top, jungle, and even support in some regions. However, their backstories also expand the world of Runeterra whether it's giving more details of various city-states or continuing to make lore-heavy characters into champions such as Kai'Sa or Senna previously. Seraphine's full reveal may have disappointed some players after the massive build-up, but her unique marketing approach release shows that Riot still has many new ideas to promote future champion relea
In his base form Gnar is arguably the cutest champion in the game, but appearances can be deceiving. After building up enough rage, Gnar transforms into a massive, muscular beast who can throw giant boulders as if they were pebb
Moving forward, new champion releases shouldn't clash so closely with one another. Yone's debut heavily eclipsed Lillia's earlier arrival despite players knowing both would come out during the summer event. Furthermore, Seraphine's social media may have been planned months in advance, but this greatly took away from Samira who seemed like an afterthought. However, this year's schedule can largely be attributed to the shift cause by COVID-19, and it shouldn't be a sign that 2021 will continue an erratically slow or fast p
<img style="max-width:430px;float:left;padding:10px 10px 10px 0px;border:0px;" alt="" />While League of Legends continues to grow outside the MOBA, it seems Apex Legends shares a similar desire to grow outside of its own battle royale genre. In an interview with Eurogamer, Apex Legends <a href="http://www.gz-jj.com/comment/html/?623116.html">SLG game online guide</a> director Chad Grenier mentioned a desire to expand and "eventually evolve into something beyond a battle royale." At first, Grenier mentions that crossplay and the Nintendo Switch release of Apex Legends are the first steps to expanding the game. However, Grenier subsequently poses the question of how Apex Legends could move beyond just iterating on Apex Legends with additional limited-time-mo
Chief can try shooting her, but all Lux has to do is use her barrier to block the bullets. She also has the ability to bind Chief in place, and if she does that she can use her ultimate to fire a massive laser of light that would easily break through Chief's ar
Over the course of a decade, League of Legends has become one of the most played games in the world, and it now has more than 150 champions, all of whom have their own designated role, as well as their own set of abilities. Every single one of these champions is powerful, but there are some who simply tower over the r
Chief may not be able to outrun Warwick, but he can definitely slice straight through him with an energy sword, and seeing as Warwick doesn't wear any armor, bullets will be able to do maximum damage to
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 <a href="http://ruanjiaoyang.com/member.asp?action=view&memName=JudyNeuman16725161">SLG game News</a> 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
On the other hand, 2 champions were finally reworked after winning the community vote back in 2019: Fiddlesticks and Volibear. Both characters were chosen by players for a visual update because their concepts didn't fit in the game's ever-evolving lore. To that end, Fiddlesticks was transformed into a primordial demon disguised as a scarecrow while Volibear was redesigned as the Freljord demigod he was always meant to be. Even though details were changed, the thematic is still there and instantly recognizable by veteran play
