CLG s Stixxay Isn t Doubting Himself After A Last Place Finish

Yone's Q is also remarkably similar to that of his brother Yasuo. This ability, like Yasuo's "Steel Tempest," is a straight-line skillshot that deals instant damage based on Yone's attack damage and functions much like a buffed up auto-attack. The differences between the two character's abilities lie in the third consecutive strikes. Unlike Yasuo, Yone's third use of his Q is a knock-up attached to a dash. This means that Yone's ability to chase enemies down is much more reliable than his counterpart. An additional bonus is that Yone can freely dash over walls to chase or escape from an en


Ahead of the 2020 Spring Split, Counter Logic Gaming acquired former world champion Lee "Crown" Min-ho. After a 1-7 start, Crown was benched for veteran Eugene "Pobelter" Park. "When [Pobelter] first joined, the team was kinda off the rails in a way," Stixxay said while laughing. "We forgot about a lot of the fundamentals and basics of the game cause we’d just been losing so mu


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

League now has more than 150 champions, all of whom come with their own skins. Every champion receives at least one Epic skin, but some champions are given one or two Legendary skins, and a very select few receive an Ultimate skin which is valued at over $30. As of now, there are only five Ultimate skins in the game, and they are defined by their advanced visual and sound effects, and of the more than 140 champions that remain, there are several who definitely deserve their own pricey s


Garen's passive, Perseverance, allows Garen to regenerate a percentage of his maximum health every 5 seconds. However, if Garen is hit by an enemy or an enemy ability, he will have to wait 8 seconds for the ability to return. This ability is very useful because it allows Garen to frequently and confidently exchange hits with the enemy without having to waste time in base healing as a result. When Perseverance is active, Garen will have glowing green particles fly around him and a little icon will appear above the Champion i


Garen's early MOBA game Strategy 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


Pantheon’s rework was a result of Riot cracking down on many champions that had global or semi-global ultimates. Veteran players will remember the halcyon (or hellish) days when Lux’s ultimate was nearly global, but Pantheon’s new ultimate feels weak at best and ultimately worthless at wo
