Flyquest has outperformed all exceptions this split, in large part due to their 22 year old German mid laner. Along with having the coolest name in the LCS, PowerOfEvil has led his team to four victories in a row. During week 5 he flexed his expansive champion pool, playing Orianna against Golden Guardians and Corki against Counter Logic Gaming, both firsts for him this split. PowerOfEvil was also the first player in the world to win a game as Corki this year. Immortals’ Eika and DAMWON Gaming’s ShowMaker in Korea were the only other players to use Corki, both losing their games on t he daring bombardier . As Flyquest looks to finish out the season strong, they will lean on PowerOfEvil to be a dominant force in the mid l
Similarly, Resident Evil began trending online as players noticed some eerie similarities between the company working on a vaccine and the in-game Umbrella Corporation. So, in some rare cases, certain games have even benefited from the fears of the Coronavirus and how they relate to the illness. However, the effects of this virus might wind up spreading even further into the future, as the manufacturing of this years most anticipated consoles may be at r
The 2020 Mid Season Cup was no different, with Gen.G being the lone LCK team to make it out of the group stage. Many pegged T1, who recently won the 2020 LCK Spring Split, as the favorites to win the tournament. Despite getting off to early leads in their games thanks to some nutty plays from Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok, T1 looked near-clueless at times, losing their advantages and allowing their opponents to come back and
Similar in style to the MCU and DCEU, the Arthurian series would’ve comprised solo films for various famed characters of legend and built towards a crossover team-up against a major villain. Audiences and critics, however, sensed that trying to hammer a centuries-old story of knights and vikings into the en-vogue superhero format of the day was bottom-of-the-barrel stuff, and King Arthur ‘s fortunes weren’t helped by an almost invisible marketing presence that meant the release passed most movie-goers by. Unfortunately, those who did witness Legend of the Sword were largely unimpressed with the film’s sequel setup, erratic pace and weird David Beckham cameo . Generally considered one of Ritchie’s weaker efforts , King Arthur: Legend of the Sword might’ve fared better without the weight of a further 5 films lingering in the dista
Aside from the Taipei Game Show, there have been a few other gaming events that have been canceled, postponed, or put under strict guard as fear of Wuhan Coronavirus continues to grow. Most notably, the second week of the League Of Legends Meta of Legends Pro League was delayed to ensure the safety of both fans and players, as the Chinese tournament held a high risk of spreading the virus. As a result, the tournament has maintained it’s postponement and likely won’t be back on for some t
Aphromoo also explained how the team makes transitions easier for the new players. “We scrim in-house, so everyone’s always together. We do some team activities where we play whatever game and stuff like th
The China native played Zoe twice, landing every sleepy trouble bubble imaginable, not dying a single time. He even switched from a carry role to a support-like role, playing Orianna against FPX in the finals, finishing with a KDA (kill/death/assist) of 2/2
DAMWON Gaming showed flashes of brilliance, but their overconfidence and questionable draft choices, such as support Cho “BeryL” Geon-hee playing Karma time and time again despite being near useless on the champion, led to their ultimate downf
This strategy works because of a mechanic with Senna, where killing minions has a chance of dropping souls, which Senna can collect, granting her bonus attack damage. So Senna actually doesn’t need the gold from CS to get stronger, she can just collect the souls that drop as her laning partner farms. Although DIG Academy lost with this strategy, Zven collected enough souls early game to the point where Immortals couldn’t handle his damage output, and Cloud9 was able to take the win. Zven and Vulcan will look to continue their domination for Cloud9 in the second half of the spring sp
Dignitas rejoined the LCS in 2020 after a two year hiatus by merging with Clutch Gaming. Before the merge, Clutch Gaming represented North America by competing internationally at Worlds 2019. After just one split, Dignitas has replaced every single member of that Clutch Gaming roster and missed out on the spring playo
TSM has now won six out of their last eight games, finding their way to 3rd place in the LCS Spring standings. Dardoch has been a major part of this surge, playing Lee Sin both games this past weekend against 100 Thieves and Evil Geniuses, winning both handily. One of the main jobs of a jungler is to secure neutral objectives, such as baron and dragon, as these give buffs that increase the stats of the players, helping them win fights. During week 5, TSM gave up 6 dragons, taking just 3 for themselves. This was done intentionally, however, as they decided to exchange early game dragons for objectives elsewhere on the map, such as map pressure and turrets. Early game dragons were weakened this past off season, and making these trade-offs helped TSM get early advantages. In doing so, this enabled Dardoch to secure baron buffs, an arguably more important late game objective. He managed to secure his team 100% of the barons taken this past weekend, which led to TSM winning both games. In terms of personal stats, Dardoch led junglers with a 14 KDA this week, dying just once. TSM will look to Dardoch to be a strength in the jungle, as they chase Flyquest in the standi
