Samsung Galaxy's finals set against SKT T1 in 2017 was simply amazing. SKT T1 was going for a three-peat and their fourth Worlds title, trying to take home their second consecutive title after an incredible run in 2016. The roster of Huni, Peanut/Blank, Faker, Bang, and Wolf faced off against CuVee, Ambition/Haru, Crown, Ruler, and Cor

They managed to fix whatever issues they had going into the quarterfinals because, from that point on, they were winning. Anchored by Mid Laner Doinb and his counter-meta picks, the team defeated G2 in the finals with a 3 - 0 sweep. This meant that Chinese teams took home consecutive championships. FunPlus Pheonix took out historic franchises on their rise to the top,

Although he started playing League of Legends during its beta stages, he did not stick for long as a pro player. At first, ocelote became a star when he was playing for SK Gaming, but eventually founded his team: Gamers2. He was banned twice throughout his career because of his toxic behavior during games (a long-running issue in the LoL community). With time, ascendance Carlos has taken steps to change his behav

League of Legends went in the exact opposite direction quite fast with new skins and characters fitting all kinds of aesthetics besides the medieval fantasy theme it's rooted in. Everything from pirates to ghosts and even interdimensional rift monsters fill the incredibly large roster of champions. Each and every match feels even more diverse for

Over the past 10 years of League of Legends world championship events, legacies have been forged, champions have been dethroned, and relatively unknown teams have taken home the cup. This list will rank the 10 world championship rosters based on factors of dominance at the time, as well as the overall cultural impact on the competitive League of Legends scene. All statistical and historical information throughout this article was obtained through Leaguepedia and Liquipedia's League Of Legends pa

League of Legends has grown into one of the most-watched esports around the world, boasting a fanatical player base and extremely competitive regional professional circuits. Each year, the major regions alongside "wildcard" regions send their best teams to compete on the grandest stage in hopes of becoming world champions. The ultimate objective: hoisting the highly coveted Summoners Cup and taking home a huge cash pr

The passive for Moonstone Renewer blesses a nearby ally with a heal on dealing damage to enemies. It also applies a heal on top of existing healing abilities. This includes all damage, like Brand's damage-over-time passive. This is a weak heal, but is on a short enough cooldown it applies multiple times during a fight. It also gets stronger the longer the user is in combat. A true Moonstone abuser will be able to sufficiently support their team and utilize the other cost-effective enchanter items, even on a midlaner's bud

Everfrost's active fires a skillshot out in a cone. Enemies in the center of the cone get rooted and take bonus damage, while other enemies hit are simply slowed and take some damage. This active now fires fast and has a relatively short cooldown, giving more wave-clearing power and lockdown to control mages who need the help. It's less of a dopamine hit than either Luden's or Liandry's, but is situationally oppress

Pings are also great for seizing opportunities that no one else sees, for example, when 3 enemy champions are dead and the player's team can capture the boss. It might feel annoying, but it's the best way to communicate with teammates aside from voice c

One of the common factors for powerful active items is additional mobility. Mobility creep has long been a problem in League and giving an extra dash to champions who need it is one way to solve the problem. Of course, Galeforce's active does more than simply dash; it changes the way an ADC can p

League of Legends is essentially a game of attrition, at its core. The goal is not to take on opponents head-on, but rather to collect resources, XP, and slowly but surely crawl ahead of the enemy team. Each champion in the team takes their place in one of three lanes (or the jungle) and collects XP and gold from fallen enemy mobs while taking out that lane's defensive tow

Once again, Dota 2 has absolutely seen tons of changes over the years. It's been an incredibly popular game that kickstarted a genre that nearly every other imitator has failed at. Much of this is because the game's base mechanics have remained dominantly the same throughout hist

Perhaps the greatest advantage of League of Legend's map is from an update just a few short years ago. The dragon objective near the bottom lane of the map could shift between four elements. Each of these would give different random buffs to add more variance to each match. But even cooler was the shift to the environment based on the second dragon sl

In the 2013 World Championship finals, SKT T1 faced Royal Club in the finals. Tt was the battle of prodigies: the notorious unkillable demon king, Faker, vs. the greatest marksman to grace Summoners Rift, Uzi. This iconic series was the crucible that forged the Chinese Vs. Korean team rivalry in League of Lege
