League of Legends Classic isn't the launch experience, it's a "greatest hits" of the early years
Riot Games has finally lifted the lid on League of Legends Classic as promised, and my big takeaway is that this isn't just a transportation back in time to 2009, but rather a greatest hits collection of its first few seasons. That said, there are certainly a lot of the fundamentals of that initial experience [...]
Riot believes League of Legends 'mage bot' strats are "healthy diversity" and "need to be viable"
Riot Games has pulled planned Brand buffs from the upcoming League of Legends patch 26.14 due to "concerns around mages bot," but says it's still committed to supporting the divisive strategy as a viable way to play the MOBA. In a preview post covering the new update, Lead Gameplay Designer Matt 'Phroxzon' Leung-Harris...
Heroes of the Storm esports is back, but it's just for one day
Not a day goes by without me lamenting the death of Heroes of the Storm. While League of Legends will always be the premier MOBA, HoTS took all of my favorite games and smushed them into one, perfect place. It's a game that I have far too many fond memories of; I used to be an absolute beast on Sylvanas Windrunner, but...
Riot delays 'last hit indicators' in League of Legends ranked mode after fan response: 'We want to get more data and feedback'
Once you've lost a few thousand hours to a MOBA, it's easy to forget how hard it was to learn. A game like League of Legends has well over a hundred playable characters, all sorts of items and jungle monsters, and even the basics can be fussy. One of the most crucial is the zen practice of "last hitting," or swinging a...
League of Legends Classic is real: "This was the right time"
League of Legends Classic is official. We weren't really supposed to know yet, but Riot Games had a bit of a slip-up and accidentally leaked a significant enough chunk of it onto the PBE that it was impossible to keep pretending. Instead, the developer did the best thing it possibly could: embrace the meme, and drop an...
Riot Games Teases League of Legends Classic
League of Legends developer Riot Games is officially teasing a "classic" game mode based on older versions of the long-running MOBA. The legacy version of League of Legends will likely be similar to classic servers offered by games such as World of Warcraft.
Riot walks back putting League of Legends' controversial 'last hit indicators' into ranked play, for now
It's been a whirlwind few hours for League of Legends, with Riot Games announcing that its most controversial player assist tool was about to be implemented in ranked play, only for them to rapidly reverse the decision in response to public outcry. The 'last hit indicator' system, which clearly marks when minions are w...
Riot went a bit "out there" with some of League of Legends' recent champions. Locke is a welcome return to what players "want."
Locke straddles two worlds; literally. He's an exorcist with a keen knowledge of the occult; someone who exists in both the material plane and a spiritual realm beyond our own. But he also does so in terms of design: his kit, while hyper-mobile, plays like a traditional assassin, reliant on a strong early game and skil...
League of Legends patch 26.13 is finally dealing with its Senna problem
Of all of League of Legends' 170+ champions, few have caused as many balancing headaches as Senna. I cannot tell you how many times I've seen The Redeemer rise and fall from prominence over the years, and her passive, Absolution, must be one of the MOBA's most-tweaked at this point. Well, Senna's turned into a soloq mo...
League of Legends won't follow TFT to Unreal Engine, but it is changing its client
League of Legends will not be moving to Unreal Engine, despite its sister game Teamfight Tactics making the jump. Andrei 'Meddler' van Roon, the Head of League Studio, has clarified what the future holds for the Riot MOBA, which is currently setting the stage for a major overhaul in the form of the mysterious League Ne...
There's rumors of a League of Legends Classic, and I'm not sure how I feel about it
In many ways, the 'Classic' trend began with Old School RuneScape. Stripping away all of the game's shiny new bells and whistles and harkening back to the good ol' days of chopping down trees and leveling up professions, Jagex kickstarted one of the most prolific trends in online videogames. World of Warcraft Classic a...
Now-deleted TFT job post hints that it could be moving to Unreal Engine
League Next is on the way, with the evolution of League of Legends set to bring generational upgrades to its Hextech Engine. However, since Riot Games let the cat out of the bag back in December, my big question has been: 'what about Teamfight Tactics?' Well, Riot may have indicated what the auto-chess game's future ho...
