While it might not have been the first, the Marvel Cinematic Universe spearheaded by Kevin Feige and now under the ownership of Disney has refined the formula for a modern audience. Beginning with Iron Man in 2008 and exploding thanks to The Avengers 4 years later, the MCU pumps out multiple movies per year, almost all of which have garnered considerable critical and commercial success. Seeing the success Marvel Studios were enjoying, rival studios clamored to adopt the shared universe approach, but many of these pretenders have since fallen by the ways

**League of Legends ** is one of the biggest esports on the planet. Here's a guide for getting started in this massive community game. League of Legends has taken over the world with its addictive MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) gameplay and an entire subsection dedicated to fans of this game was formed.

Despite what some think, this role is a lot of peoples favorite and this gives some equally underrated champions their much deserved time in the spotlight. Here are ten great champions who are also the best laners in League of Legends ranked guide of Lege

Similar in style to the MCU and DCEU, the Arthurian series would've comprised solo films for various famed characters of legend and built towards a crossover team-up against a major villain. Audiences and critics, however, sensed that trying to hammer a centuries-old story of knights and vikings into the en-vogue superhero format of the day was bottom-of-the-barrel stuff, and King Arthur 's fortunes weren't helped by an almost invisible marketing presence that meant the release passed most movie-goers by. Unfortunately, those who did witness Legend of the Sword were largely unimpressed with the film's sequel setup, erratic pace and weird David Beckham cameo . Generally considered one of Ritchie's weaker efforts , King Arthur: Legend of the Sword might've fared better without the weight of a further 5 films lingering in the dista

Support: This role is to protect and support the ADC. If needed, this means taking hits and sacrificing their lives so the ADC can survive. Abilities focus more on crowd control like silences, stuns, slowing down the enemy. Their main mission is to support the t

In perhaps one of the biggest esports news drops of the year, Team Liquid shockingly traded franchise cornerstone Doublelift to Team SoloMid after a ninth-place finish in the LCS. Doublelift will be replacing Kasper "Kobbe" Kobberup as the team's starting AD carry through at least 2

Here's where all of the Warner Bros. shared universes are today, and which of them actually succeeded. The concept of several different movie series all being connected by a larger shared universe umbrella is not new to cinema. The Universal monster movie franchise popular throughout the 1930s and 1940s is often considered the very first example of a shared cinematic universe, tying together otherwise disparate franchises such as Dracula , The Mummy and The Wolf-Man . In Japan, Toho's kaiju movies also formed their own connected fictional world, with Godzilla front and cen

Varus seemed to be the only champion to be a perma-ban for every team in the Mid-Season Cup. The few times he slipped through the banning phase, he'd be immediately first picked by the blue team, making the red team who didn't ban him regret

Godzilla: King of the Monsters duly followed in 2019 and fully cracked open the doors of the MonsterVerse, introducing Mothra, Ghidorah and numerous other Titans waiting in the wings, of which Kong was one. In both critical and commercial terms, King of the Monsters was afforded a more lukewarm response in comparison to the previous 2 entries in the series, but Warner Bros. and Legendary are pressing ahead with their scheduled showdown between Kong and Godzilla none the less. The fate of the MonsterVerse likely hinges entirely on the performance of Godzilla vs. Kong later this year; the upcoming clash could elevate the cinematic universe in the same way The Avengers did for the MCU, but if there's no significant improvement upon King of the Monsters , it's hard to see the franchise continuing further. As things stand, however, the MonsterVerse has generally proved successful for Warner Bros . and could yet become a leading cinematic unive
