December5 Takeaways From The LEC's Wild Week 3
During the Early-Mid game you will want to grab your first essential item which will be the Gargoyle Stoneplate. This item will provide much needed passive resistances as well as its active will allow you to increase your max HP by 100% for 4 seconds which can be vital when in the middle of a fight. However, at this point Leona's max HP is kind of low so it would be smart to turn the early MOBA game tournaments Kindlegem into a Knight's Vow which synergizes really well with a support play-style. Knight's Vow will allow you to designate an ally champion as your partner and grant you bonuses if you are within range of t
Although the top team is up for debate, Mad Lions are currently the best performing team in European League of Legends . Just a split ago, they were a group of five rookies, and they've since transformed into potentially the most synchronous team in the
To put it frankly, G2 may not have made the playoffs were it not for Caps’ MVP season. Even after six straight domestic titles, an MSI victory, and back to back World’s Finals appearances, Caps continues to find ways to impress. In a region famous for its mid laners, Caps stands above. He comes into the tournament with hopes for a third shot at the title and to finally prove the best player in the world does not have to come from the e
When you begin the game, the Relic Shield and Health Potion will suffice for the first couple minutes of the laning phase, but for your early game items you want to get Boots of Speed and a Kindlegem. For your upgraded set of boots, it is common to go with Boots of Mobility if you want to be aggressive in lane and get early kills, but Leona may benefit more from the resistances given by Mercury Treads. During the early game it would also be wise to invest in either a Chain Vest or Stopwatch as both will help Leona tank up and build into a Gargoyle Stoneplate. Stopwatch's unique active, Stasis, can be used when in the middle of a fight to dodge incoming attacks by making her unable to attack or be attacked for 2.5 seconds, but it can only be used o
Tyari is the last of the mountain climbers to appear in other cards; first in Taric’s level one card art, where he’s seen greeting Tyari as the base of a spiraling staircase, then once again in "Arbiter of the Peak." This is the final time Tyari is seen. After braving the mountain and watching as the other climbers failed to reach the peak, the last test is the Arbiter, whose flavor text reveals that this is the final test of the mountain. The Arbiter looks into the climber’s spirit to see if they are wor
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
Subsequently, OG also revealed their first out of lane branching team named OG CS: GO, which is comprised of the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players in the world. The team's most recent accomplishment was way back in December, wherein the team placed third and pocketed $21.5 thousand. A new front may be in the making for
Players will spend time skirmishing, gathering goodies, and coordinating with teammates. This all leads to the end goal of toppling the opposing team's 'Ancient', a towering Mordor-esque structure within their b
The longtime G2 Esports top laner has played a major part in the juggernaut team winning four European titles in a row. Wunder showed off his impressive champion pool during the League of Legends European Championship Summer Playoffs, playing a total of 11champions throughout seventeen games. The Dane has cemented himself as one of the best players in Europe, as well as one of the best top laners in Worlds
As discussed earlier, Leona is best played as an aggressive support that takes advantage of enemies that are alone or have stepped up too close to the minion wave. As a support, she is best played bottom lane with a preferably ranged ADC that is willing to combo with Leona when she dives aggressively. In lane, you're going to want to harass the enemy ADC with Zenith Blade whenever they are alone or trying to last hit a minion . If you don't have wards and an enemy is missing, hide in the brush beside the river to provide vision for your ADC and then punish any enemy junglers that are come to tank. Leona has a ton of wave clear with Eclipse and Zenith Blade, so it is okay to be aggressive and push lane to the enemy tower. This kind of play will also synergize well with Demolish as you can do a lot of damage to the enemy towers early on. Clearing and pushing the wave also provides Leona with the opportunity to leave the lane and help out middle or top. Thanks to her Boots of Mobility, she can rotate to other lanes and easily engage the enemy from the brush. In the middle to late-game, Leona will excel at tanking damage and providing crowd control. Use her abilities to get right into the middle of the fight and draw attention away from your team. Then, use her Shield of Daybreak or Solar Flare to deal damage while immobilizing the enemy ADC. If Leona is in the absolute thick of it, use Eclipse and Gargoyle Stoneplate to tank the enemy team's damage output and let your team clean them
