The 10 Most Overpowered Items In League Of Legends, Ranked

The 10 Most Overpowered Items In League Of Legends, Ranked

The greatest players in the history of League of Legends cement their legacy at the World Championship. Faker , Mata, Ambition, and Rookie all etched their names in the pantheon of esports on this stage. Every year, players from around the world hope to reach the top of the mountain and throw their names in with the greats. This year is no exception. The only question is, who is currently the best player in the world? Who will carry their team and their region to victory? After days of VOD review, we built a list of what we feel are the top 20 players at the tournament based on 2020 domestic performan

The Taunt king ( sorry Teemo ) has severely fallen out of fashion over the last few years. He used to be a fantastic jungler because his ganks were legendary with his rolling, his taunting, and his knock-up. But so many champions now have abilities to counter his approaches that it renders his utility useless. As a result, players might be able to use Rammus in lower ranks to rise up, but will find it very difficult to leverage his abilities in higher tiers of difficu

Volibear's strengths become apparent as an aggressive, all-in-type champion. If his team is not on the same page as him, his all-in dives become problematic, and can lose his team the moba game builds. Teams need to be careful when picking Volibear, as he's not a champion that belongs in every team composit

W: Spirit Cleave - Yone cleaves forward in a massive arc dealing a portion of the target's maximum health. After successfully hitting an enemy Yone also gains a temporary shield. The shield's power increases per champion str

Players will recognize both components of Yone's passive, as they can be seen in practice with Sett and Yasuo. Sett shares the capability to deal increased damage on every second hit of his auto attacks, and Yasuo also has doubled crit-chance. This should make Yone's hybrid passive feel very familiar to players who have frequented both of his predecess

In their game against Excel, after a team fight win in the mid lane, the team split up. Kobbe went to push the wave in the top lane, while Iván "Razork" Martín went for Rift Herald and the rest of the team stayed mid to take the to

In the past, Ana has had problems trying to find himself. He's gone through thick and thin to find the passion of playing Dota 2 after winning the International 2018 and has pushed himself over his mental limits. It was because of his strive to be the player OG needed that he shined at the next big tournament, which was the International 2019. Although JerAx never expressed the same issues during both Internationals, his interview with OG has filled out the blanks of his retirem

E: Soul Unbound - Yone can enter his Spirit Form, gaining movement speed and leaving his body behind. When Yone's Spirit Form expires he'll snap back into his body and deal a percentage of all the damage he dealt while in Spirit F

Overall, without innovative and creative performances from OG's full active roster from 2018, Dota 2 could be more of a lackluster eSport than its ever been. Mainly because playing Dota 2 is a puzzle, and it's always different, but the guidelines for playing it are still the same. What OG did was completely go beyond that and create their own guidelines, for example, Topson plays absurd heroes for mid lane, Ana abuses his opponents as IO core, and Ceb takes a break when his team fights and then Axe calls. Together they made a team of unpredictability and top-tier skill, both of which are the ingredients to making history. So without the unquestionability of how an event will progress or turnout, it leaves the world disappointed that Dota 2 may never get as significant as it did when OG owned the professional scene. However, there is still hope. OG will play at ESL One Los Angeles Major Qualifier for a spot in the third Major of the sea

While Ruler may be the perfect AD Carry , Jackeylove is a highlight waiting to happen. The former World Champion joined Top Esports at the beginning of the year and was the spark that the team needed. His fearlessness led to a lot of TES victories, and the occasional int. He looks to earn his second World Championship and cement himself as one of League’s greatest AD Carr

His capacity to outplay at higher ranks is severely limited as his kit necessitates repetition — especially in a meta where popular champions like Athelios, Sett, and Graves (to name a few) can be very malleable and situatio

Yone's most complex ability, though it is still relatively simple in practice. Yone splits his body into two, and players then control Yone's Spirit Form. Players deal and receive damage normally, and any damage done while in Spirit Form will mark enemies. Once the ability ends, the player instantly blinks back to Yone's body, and marked enemies will be dealt a portion of the damage they received from Yone's Spirit Form. This ability allows players to stick to an enemy and finish off kills with little risk to them. While there is still the risk of dying while in Spirit Form, a player can push deep into enemy lines to secure a kill and still guarantee an escape back to where they began - just make sure Yone's body is tucked away in a safe spot! This ability also looks fantastic with Yone's Spirit Blossom skin , which he will receive on rele
