League of Legends Champion Guide: Aphelios' Weapons & Abilities

The obvious answer is because they want a new experience. That’s why new games keep getting made and why pretty much every game has a limited lifespan. Once their player has had their fill, they move on to the next big th

Like Marvel, DC only has two films coming in 2020: Bird of Prey (and the Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) and Wonder Woman 1984 . 2021 will see Robert Pattinson become the next actor to bring the Caped Crusader to the big screen in Matt Reeves' The Batman . Also coming to theaters in 2021 from DC Films is Black Adam , with Dwayne Johnson as the titular hero, and James Gunn's The Suicide Squad sequel. DC's plans for 2022 include DC Super Pets and Aquaman

Today, few companies are looking to create a new MOBA. Dota2 's player count has been on a slow, steady decline while League of Legends' has mostly plateaued. Riot Games still reports LoL ’s player count as an ever-growing number , one can only assume that’s due to greater international penetration as well as longtime players creating secondary or "smurf" accou

This is a bit different than the situation with the MCU. Several of DC's films are generating more enthusiasm than Shang-Chi and Eternals . Of course, this doesn't mean that either of these film will fail or be any less successful than DC's movies. If Marvel has proved anything with Ant-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy , it's that it knows how to make millions with C and D-list characters. Shang-Chi and Eternals could easily be huge box office hits. Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige believes that a movie like Eternals is worth the risk . The idea here is that Marvel is putting quality over popularity. It remains to be seen if this will pay off. Regardless, as it stands, DC's upcoming movie slate is succeeded in creating the most buzz. How well that will translate to box office numbers is another mat

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League represented several of DC's problems, but fortunately it didn't take too long for DC to fix them. With both movies, it felt like DC was trying to copy the formula of The Avengers , but not in a good way. DC's team-ups didn't feel earned in the same way as Marvel's. Marvel took its time, while DC rushed toward throwing its biggest heroes together — and it showed. DC didn't make the same mistakes with Aquaman and Shazam!, which feel unique from anything made by Marvel. Since Justice League , DC has showed a willingness to dabble in various genres, tones, and styles. What DC has on the horizon is a sign that the studio is doubling-down on this appro

How you level abilities will depend on what you wish to focus on. For a pure damage AP build, stagger one point into each of your Q, W, and E ability for the first three levels. Then, mostly go into Q and E, with all five points into Q by level 9. This will maximize damage, and your E will not need to level up as an escape tool since the MS bonus is constant and only the an AS bonus gets hig

Halloween is right around the corner, which means it's just about the time many games roll out a special spooky surprise. A number of the events have already begun, and more are on the way, so here's a handy round-up of all 2019's in-game Halloween events announced so

Mortal Kombat 11 's free in-game event begins on October 25, bringing four new Halloween-themed boss fights to the game which include flying witches and bats, falling pumpkins, black cats, and tombstones rising from the ground. To top off the fun, the event also adds new brutalities, Halloween consumables, and other in-game rewards to e

Bloodborne 's Halloween event is a little more non-traditional, in that the Return to Yharnam event is completely community-run. There are officially sanctioned costumes for players to show off, but for the main event, players are encouraged to roll new characters and then interact with fellow Hunters as much as possible, Summoning or Invading them frequently. Bloodborne 's community event is going on now and runs until Novembe

Pokemon GO is, as usual, a little more family-friendly with its Halloween 2019 event. Players can catch versions of the four starter pokemon in cute Halloween costumes , including Pikachu dressing up as Mimikyu. There are also lots of goodies for trainers, special Field Research assignments, and the chance to battle against Darkrai in a five-star r

There's a term in economics called "market saturation." It basically means that a product has become so common in the market that everyone who wants the product either already has it or can easily get it. It happens to basically everything, but you can see it often in certain widely distributed items, such as cars, snack foods, and yes, video ga
