Breaking Down Dota 2 Patch 7.26a

Legends of Runeterra, Riot Game's digital card game based in the world of League of Legend s, released its latest update on October 15, introducing 40 new collectible cards, including 3 champions, as well as a variety of new features and content across the game. The new cards come with a wide array of interesting characters and beautiful art to ma

This is where Yone and Yasuo's kits begin to diverge, as Yone's W is very straight forward. This ability is a large cone in front of Yone (a Yone Cone) that deals damage based on an enemy's maximum health. Yone then gains a shield based on how many champions he hit with the initial strike. Spirit Cleave is a defensive ability that requires Yone to be actively engaged in combat, so it lends itself to a very all-in playstyle if players want to get the most defensive value out of the abil


Shyvana has been a part of the game since 2011, which is why she is next up for a full champion rework. Her most defining feature is the fact that she transforms into a dragon every time she casts her ultimate, and Riot can do a lot with that ability skin w


So far, there does not seem to be much of a change in which items players prioritize in Moba Game Champions, however the price difference has meant that matches see a longer delay before they can be purchased, or they are forgone entirely in favor of saving up for another, more expensive item a little earlier. Overall, the price changes seem healthy as before it was too simple to stock up on key items too quic


CS:GO is the latest installment of the Counter-Strike franchise, and also the most developed. It is one of the most competitive FPS games in the esports scene and one of the most widely played games ever. This tactical shooter pits terrorists against counter-terrorists in various game mo


As usual, there is quite a bit to read in the 7.26a patch notes, and readers can click here for the full announcement. Best of luck to everyone and keep an eye out for players who may be overextending themselves with these new changes, as they likely have not read the notes and are ripe for a quick kill until they figure it


_League of Legends _ is receiving its second moody samurai with the release of the game's newest champion, Yone (yo-nay). Brother to Yasuo, the premier swordsman of Summoner's Rift, Yone brings an alternative, though not dissimilar playstyle to players looking to spend their time mastering the bl


In an act of pure, unadulterated "teleports behind you," Yone's ultimate does precisely that. Yone dashes forward, damaging every enemy champion he hits and teleports behind the last target, then pulls all enemies hit towards him. This ultimate is a very simple ability that adds more damage and mobility to Yone's kit. The ability is also able to jump over walls and can be used in a pinch to escape if nee


The ascent up the mountain continues in "Mountain Sojourners." The group of three are still making their way up the mountain where things only get more perilous. The card art for "Fused Firebrand" shows a giant metallic dragon attacking two travelers in the snow, Emir and Tyari, with Halley nowhere to be seen. It can be inferred that the Halley fell off the side of the mountain in Mountain Sojourners. The Mentor’s prediction about Halley and Emir failing to make it to the peak turned out to be t


In addition, Supernova scepter upgrade no longer allows Phoenix to cast Sun Ray, whereas the level 20 Talent has changed from a +1.25 second Supernova Stun Duration to Sun Ray During Supernova. While no one enjoys seeing their favorite character nerfed, and there are many fans of Phoenix, these changes were necessary and simply take the hero from overpowered to within a far more acceptable range of po


Certain items have had their costs increase to reflect their strength and the broad utility that players gain from acquiring them early in the game. By upping their respective costs, players can skill benefit from each but will need to wait longer to afford each. The main price changes


For emerging victorious in an event, all members of the winning team are granted a temporary or permanent buff. Depending on the prize, it's either a small benefit or one that drastically tilts the game in that team's fa


This means that certain heroes who have a high base movement speed such as Keeper of the Light will benefit less from the use of these items compared to before because they are receiving a bonus that disregards their inherently high base speed. On the opposite end of things, heroes that are inherently slower in their base speed like Medusa will benefit slightly by becoming faster than when using percentage-based bonus items for movement speed. Players who do not pay attention to this change will certainly be in for a rude awakening as they slightly overextend with a hero that was slightly faster only last w


Once again, if we view the overall theme of 7.26 as an effort by Valve to slow down gameplay, many of the changes to heroes make perfect sense. For starters, Alchemist has seen Greedevil’s Greed cap reduced from 20/24/28/32 to 18/22/26/30, and the base gold bonus reduced from 4 to 3. This means that Alchemist is far less effective at farming in the new patch, but still in line with most other heroes of the same t
