League Of Legends: How To Play Nexus Blitz

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


Leona's passive, Sunlight, applies a 1.5 second debuff to enemies hit by any of her abilities. When afflicted by Sunlight, damage dealt by ally champions will consume the debuff and deal bonus magic damage based on Leona's current level. Since only ally champions can consume the sunlight charge, Leona will benefit the most from this passive by using teamwork and sticking near her team's


Battle Sled: A respawning sled appears in base that can be steered by the first player that climbs into it. Other allies can hitch a ride by jumping onto the sled and everyone will explode out upon colliding with terrain or an en


The best individual laner in the world, Chovy takes any and every opponent to his lane kingdom. He averages 13.5 CS over enemy mid laners at 15 minutes, the highest amongst all qualified mid laners. DRX depends on Chovy, sometimes overly so, to dominate the lane early in order to gain advantages on other parts of the map. Luckily, he delivers. Chovy single-handedly carried an inconsistent and underperforming DRX roster to the LCK finals and, subsequently, Worlds qualification. May the church of Chovy bless the r


Whether players only want to try Nexus Blitz once or intend to spend the next month queuing up for as many matches as possible, the game mode is certainly quick and a different take on League of Legends . But in the end, its player retention during Spirit Blossom 2020 will ultimately determine if Nexus Blitz returns sooner or goes away for a much longer time ag


Rogue’s first place summer regular-season finish can largely be credited towards Larssen’s evolution throughout the year. The second-year mid laner began competing with the likes of Caps. His growth towards an aggressive playstyle led to an 86 kill summer split, tied for first with G2’s mid laner. His ability to hard carry late-Moba Game Tier List fights on champions like Corki made Rogue a dominant force in the LEC. Larssen is the key if Rogue hopes to get out of a group with DAMWON and


Nexus Blitz was an experimental game mode released during the summer of 2018 for several weeks and then briefly revived during the spring of 2019. Although Nexus Blitz was a favorite because of its short match length, data showed that playtime for the game mode dropped heavily by the end and Riot Games made the decision to pull the m


Getting to know Garen's abilities and leveling them in the right order is essential to playing him well. A good basic order for Garen to level up his abilities is putting the first point into Decisive Strike, followed by Judgement, and then a point in courage. From there, you are going to want to prioritize leveling Judgement but still be sure to level up your Ultimate when you can. Once Judgement is maxed out or close, prioritize Decisive Strike and then finally Courage. It is also recommended to use Flash and Ignite as your Summoner Spells. For runes, use Conqueror and get Triumph, Tenacity, and Last St


Leona's first active ability, Shield of Daybreak, has Leona use her shield to perform her next auto-attack. This next attack deals bonus magic damage to an enemy and stuns them for 1 second. This ability works best when it can be followed up with more crowd control from Leona's teammates. Essentially, Leona's Shield of Daybreak is meant to be the first ability used on an enemy that gives her teammates time and opportunity to land their abilities on the target as w


Garen's ability, Courage, is both his second active and second passive ability. The passive ability is a permanent buff granted to Garen for slaying enemies. For every unit killed by Garen, his armor and magic resistance increase by 0.25 points until he reaches a total of 30 points. Once at 30 points (or stacks) Garen will gain an additional 10% increase to both his armor and magic resistance stats. Courage's active protects Garen by reducing all incoming damage by 30% for a few seconds and during the first 0.75 seconds of the ability being active, Garen is also granted a bonus shield and 60% Tenacity. Tenacity decreases the time Garen is affected by crowd control abilities based on the percentage of Tenacity, which can help prevent Garen from being locked down or kited. Use Courage's active ability during Judgement or immediately after if you expect to be hit hard by enem


Garen's early game is reliant on his kit's simple and effective trading pattern. First, basic attack an enemy, then use Decisive Strike to quickly attack them again. While the enemy is silenced and you are right on top of them, use Judgement to deal a ton of damage. When Judgement is over or the target is no longer silenced, activate Courage to block any incoming damage while you retreat away from the target. Repeating this pattern over and over again is a great way to lane effectively as a Garen. Courage and Garen's healing passive, Perseverance, basically ensure that Garen will come out on top of every trade because he can easily recover the damage his opponent has dealt to him while his opponent may not. At around level 6, Garen can even begin to do his trading pattern under the enemy Turret safely, granted the Turret only hits him once or twice. Judgment and Decisive Strike are also great abilities for securing lots of last hits on minions. Last hitting minions serve a double purpose for Garen as it provides gold as well as passive resistance so be sure to focus on it during the early and mid-game. Spamable abilities and no Manacost are a deadly combination of Garen which should be exploited as much as possible. Unlike many other Champions, Garen doesn't have to suffer from having low Mana so he doesn't need to worry about using Decisive Strike and Judgement sparingly. Instead, he can unleash his fury every time the abilities are off cooldown, which is why you should build items to further decrease the cooldown. The biggest weakness of Garen's playstyle is being kited, which means to have your abilities wasted because the enemy can successfully outrun them. Instead, build movement speed and use bushes to your advantage. Also, save your abilities until you are already in close quarters with an enemy. On the other hand, Garen is great for baiting because he can use his movement speed to lead enemies into ambush positions. He can then use Courage to block incoming bursts and escape crowd control effects which can stall long enough for his team to arrive and back him up. Garen can also cause enemies to waste their mana or powerful abilities on him by using them only to have Garen block the damage and promptly heal it back. You can also cancel Judgement early by activating it again, which is good if you know you can just quickly confirm a kill with your Ultimate or a Decisive Strike. Conserve Courage for big burst abilities or whenever a lot of damage is incoming, also save it for when you're baiting enemies. Overall, build damage resistance and movement speed to be a great tank while also reducing cooldowns in order to deal mass amounts of damage frequen
