Following their poor MSI finish, that 2016 summer saw drastic changes to the G2 roster with the departures of Kikis and Emperor, and the arrivals of Jesper “Zven” Svenningsen and Alfonso “Mithy” Aguirre Rodríguez. Zven and Mithy previously composed the powerful bot lane duo from fan-favorite xPeke’s Origen that G2 took down in the LCS finals just a few months prior. Armed with their shiny new bot lane, Perkz and the rest G2 marched into the 2016 Summer Split with high expectati
Formerly the mid laner of Berlin Internatioal Gaming of the Prime League Pro Division, Dirk “ZaZee” Mallner recently joined SK as the team’s starting mid laner, switching Janik “Jenax” Bartels to the top lane. The team also brought in twenty-three-year-old Jesse “Jesiz” Le to be the team’s new head coach, who actually played mid lane for SK back in November 2013 to October 2014. Still led by veteran jungler Kim “Trick” Gang-yun, SK hopes their 2020 summer will be vastly different from their 2020 spr
After just recently sweeping Fnatic in the 2020 Spring Finals, G2 has now tied their rival for most European titles of all time. What Fnatic did in six years, G2 did in just over four. There is no doubt who the real kings of Europe are. But, the team’s goals go past winning their region. G2 Esports want to win Wor
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
In the world of League of Legends , there’s a K-pop band called K/DA, and Akali happens to be a part of it. She’s still deadly despite the looks of a teenage idol, and cosplayer Shinku_真紅 delivers an unbelievably authentic recreation and the duality of the charac
This should be made into a skin today. If you aren’t aware, there is an Amumu skin named Emumu which once featured similar splash art. In it, the emo version of The Sad Mummy was sitting in his room with references to champions Cho’Gath and Corki in plays on real-world bands Jimmy Eat World and Deathcab for Cu
The smoke has cleared from the League of Legends Mid-Season Cup, which saw China’s top talent square off against Korea’s finest in place of the canceled MSI. After a tournament full of mechanical outplays and some head-scratching throws, the LPL’s Top Esports were the final team standing, besting the reigning World champions FunPlus Phoenix 3-1 in the Mid-Season Cup fin
DAMWON Gaming showed flashes of brilliance, but their overconfidence and questionable draft choices, such as support Cho “BeryL” Geon-hee playing Karma time and time again despite being near useless on the champion, led to their ultimate downf
Top Esports mid laner Zhuo “knight” Ding’s performance in the Mid-Season Cup was nothing short of brilliant. The twenty-year-old on Corki, despite losing both games on the champion, popped off, even winning teamfights single handedly to turn the tides of the games. Knight was able to get his hands on Syndra twice, before the champion, for all intents and purposes, became a perma-ban for his opposition due to his unrivaled skill on the Dark Sovere
The 2020 league of legends Builds of Legends Spring Split has come and gone. Cloud9 won North America, G2 Esports won Europe’s title, T1 took home the LCK Championship and JD Gaming won the honors in China’s LPL. The split was a wild ride for fans and teams across the globe, from Konstantinos-Napoleon “FORG1VEN” Tzortziou controversially stepping down from FC Schalke 04 to Team Liquid benching Yiliang “Doublelift” Peng , to COVID-19 throwing a giant wrench into it
With both Akaadian and Dardoch now on their active roster, a decision on who the starting jungler will be is expected to come within the next week. Whoever wins the job, the other will be sent down to Academy. Either way, Dignitas will look to improve this split in hopes of making a playoff
With a team composed of Wunder in the top lane, Jankos in the jungle, Caps in the mid lane and Perkz and Mikyx in the bot lane, G2 would find their old form. This roster, composed of faces both old and new, gelled together in a way that was previously unseen. Caps unlocked something, and the team started to win again. But this time, they weren’t villains, they were her
With no shortage of surprising roster swaps and eyebrow-raising decisions, it’s been tough trying to keep up with everything that’s happening. There’s no need to fret, however, because here is a breakdown of the biggest moves to happen these past few d
The China native played Zoe twice, landing every sleepy trouble bubble imaginable, not dying a single time. He even switched from a carry role to a support-like role, playing Orianna against FPX in the finals, finishing with a KDA (kill/death/assist) of 2/2
“G2 are inevitable. G2 are inescapable,” proclaimed LEC caster Aaron “Medic” Chamberlain as G2 Esports brought down the nexus of rival Fnatic, sweeping the 2020 LEC Spring finals, their third consecutive and seventh title in franchise hist
