** Max Grossman: ** Very important. It’s something that I know tangentially, as we have guys on our art teams that are hyper dedicated to this stuff, but I can give you my layman’s take on it. The most important thing is that every Agent stands out in the environments in some capacity. No camouflaged-looking dudes running through the environment cause if somebody is shooting at you, we don’t want players ever to go, «Huh, where could they be in the environment?» Valorant isn’t a hidden-object game. It’s about you knowing someone’s there and you can have a fight with them. The bright yellow jacket is pushing the extremes of what we are trying to do in that super high visibility. But it’s a super important consideration for

Most players can agree that the 2020 reworks are more successful than previous attempts like Aatrox and Swain who play much differently or barely resemble their original incarnation. Since the next updates will focus on Dr. Mundo and perhaps Shyvana, players can only hope they continue the current trend which retains a Arcane Champion Decks‘s most iconic spells and concepts adapted to modern Runete

Thankfully, due to its beautiful gameplay, how it reimagines these characters, and manages to showcase how it builds on so much fan-loved lore, and more, the trailer its breathtaking. And now that the game is out, the eventual Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel may be better thanks to Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity in many w

Ornn was already one of the better top laners prior to the Season 11 changes, but now he’s even better. All Ornn has to do is build Sunfire Aegis and he will become one of the tankiest champions in the game, and thanks to the item’s damage stacks and magic damage output, Ornn can deal even more damage to enemy tanks with his basic atta

Aside from empowering all of her other mage items, Everfrost has a unique active which deals damage to anyone within its cone, but it also slows them by up to 65%, and Lissandra can slow them even further with her own abilities. Anyone caught in the middle of the cone gets rooted as well, so it’s even easier for her to hit her abilit

Looking at something like Team Fortress 2, that game’s turret is like a bunker. If you put it down and have enough supplies, the opposing team can’t get past it unless you have like, 18 people throwing their bodies at it, and the turret is killing people left and right. It’s a very different experience than the turret we shipped in Valorant. What we always found most exciting about the turret is this feeling of setting up a crossfire of your own. Sorta like, «OK, somebody is going to attack this chokepoint, my turret [is] on the right-hand side, and I’ll hold the left-hand side.» So when they try to push through, the turret shoots first, and I can shoot them while they’re distracted. Distraction was the concept. Not a turret that instantly and autonomously takes enemies down to zero hea

While Season 10 wasn’t perfect, it brought plenty of positive changes and laid the foundation for future improvements Riot Games will continue to make. For now, players should have received their end of Season 10 rewards and can take a well-deserved break from solo queue. Otherwise, the preseason has drastically shaken up the item system and experimenting now could lead to early ranked success when Season 11 officially begins in Janu

Find her in Freljord

Lulu fans can rejoice as she has not only been added to the game, but her move set appears to have remained intact. She’s been deemed the protagonist of the trailer, so you can be sure that the team has given her some extra special attent

Since the start of summer, shipped updates have included improved AFK detection and the ability to report or mute disruptive players during champ select. These changes have resulted in more penalties and less repeat offenders with League of Legends players feeling their actions are making a noticeable difference. After these successes, Riot is planning further updates for affected teammates such as early surrendering and reducing LP loss in ranked games. While there are still rare issues like players being flagged for actually doing poorly or returning to ranked after several years and being placed in smurf queue, continued work should fix things in the next few months along with further improveme

At the same time, there is plenty of growth left for future events and scheduling. PsyOps 2020 had the unfortunate circumstance of coming right after Spirit Blossom and during the Worlds 2020 hype period. Since Samira’s release skin was tied to PsyOps, there wasn’t any other time the event could release, but it still contributed to being overshadowed alongside the shorter 3-week duration. Finally, K/DA’s comeback was heavily anticipated by players since August, but the group was only Worlds 2020’s closing act. With the promotion across Teamfight Tactics and Legends of Runeterra in addition to Seraphine’s storyline, K/DA could easily have earned their own event alongside the ALL OUT album released last week. At this point, fans can only believe this will happen with an eventual third ret
