"I think it’s something that I’ve always been interested in, but it wasn’t until I got into college and met some people doing it that I actually took the plunge. I’m not even sure if I can classify my first "outing" as a cosplay, I threw some stuff together and did a Lady Vader back in 2012. I had fun though, and got a good look at what other people were producing, asked a lot of questions, and thought 'yeah, I really need to do this right That being said, in its own unique way, Legend of Solgar...

I saved the best for last on this list. While many folks pointed out Nintendo’s lack of original titles, Splatoon made a splatastic debut and made up for the last few decades. The cute, colorful, simple online shooter is a friendly way to introduce players to the genre. Clever weapon designs and fresh gear to wear makes Splatoon a uniquely designed game. It’s not serious or violent like many others, which appeals to players of all ages. Friends, parents, kids and squids can all enjoy this game t...

Let's address the rumor first: It was reported by the Daily Dot and others earlier this month that ESL, one of the largest eSports organizations, might be partnering with Twitch and fantasy eSports website Vulcun to create a tournament on par with League of Legends League Championship Seri "While the lack of roster stability and major focal points during the year had its advantages, it had eventually come at the cost of fan engagement and competitive stability for the players," Valve said in a s...

As someone who plays Dota 2, I thought "'worth'? What do you mean 'worth'?" It hit me pretty quickly that they meant worth money. The concept of paying real money for a hero eludes me, as a Dota 2 player, with a game that has more than 100 heroes available to everyone, free of charge. While League of Legends is technically free to play, players can get a better experience by buying access to better champions - champions that have "worth." Dota 2, not so. There's not a single item in the MOBA gam...

It was mentioned at the top of this column that Heroes of the Storm got some major attention on national television on Sunday. Blizzard's Heroes of the Dorm competition had its grand finals, with the winners getting tuition money for the duration of their college care The resulting movie isn't quite Snyder's vision - which has prompted petitions for Warner Bros. to release a Snyder cut of Justice League - but isn't quite a Whedon film either. That lack of consistency means fans of Snyder's work,...

"This was a project full of firsts for me. It’s been incredibly frustrating and educational trying to finally accomplish this cosplay. This was my first time making armor with Worbla, and I only have one burn scar… so far! In fact, this was my first time using automotive primer, Bondo, silicone molds, resin casts, and a whole lot of other stuff. I’m a kinetic learner, so the only way I really get a handle on stuff is by getting my hands on it and going for it. I messed up a lot, but I learned a ...

And yet, groundwork is arguably being laid for another Justice League, in DC’s alternate-universe world of TV. Shows like The Flash , Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow might have smaller budgets, but they’ve been mostly well-received by fans and they’ve made far greater strides in establishing a shared universe than their super-friends over in movie world (not to be confused with Movie World, the Australian theme park). Better still, hints continue to be dropped as to the future of the TV universe. ...

Besides learning where these places are, you should also learn what they mean for the team and you and your champion. Certain champions are better in the lanes, while others may seem unorthodox. but can be great if played by great players. Junglers will often call to their allies or have their allies ask for the Red or Blue buffs to help their lane or engagements with their opponents. You should read the buffs and understand if they will help your character before asking for Longtime World of Wa...

When you can afford it, build your Phage into a Black Cleaver. This will be Garen's ideal first essential item because of the extra health and cooldown reduction it provides. For your selection of proper boots, go with either Mercury's Treads or the Ninja Tabi. If the enemy team has a lot of crowd control abilities that can slow Garen down, the Tenacity from both Mercury's Treads and Courage will greatly lessen those effects. If the enemy team relies on dealing damage with basic attacks, go with...

Leona's passive, Sunlight, applies a 1.5 second debuff to enemies hit by any of her abilities. When afflicted by Sunlight, damage dealt by ally champions will consume the debuff and deal bonus magic damage based on Leona's current level. Since only ally champions can consume the sunlight charge, Leona will benefit the most from this passive by using teamwork and sticking near her team's Killstreaks no longer award 30-> 100 but instead 20->90. Along with the gold nerf of 7.26, this should furthe...

During the Early-Mid game you will want to grab your first essential item which will be the Gargoyle Stoneplate. This item will provide much needed passive resistances as well as its active will allow you to increase your max HP by 100% for 4 seconds which can be vital when in the middle of a fight. However, at this point Leona's max HP is kind of low so it would be smart to turn the early game Kindlegem into a Knight's Vow which synergizes really well with a support play-style. Knight's Vow wil...

In season 4, Wriggle's Lantern receives an upgrade that is so powerful it only lasts about half of the season. Feral Flare is one of the only few items in the MOBA game skins's history with an infinite scaling stat. Champion kills, assists, and killing large monsters grant stacks. Stacks give increasing bonus magic damage to basic attacks and life steal. On top of increasing stats, it also increases the gold the user gains through monster kills and gives a free ward.

Darius, as usual, sits near the top of the ban rate list with a rate of 48.08%. He’s a very straightforward champion with a lot of ways to deal damage, from bleeding his opponents to a destructive ultimate that resets on every kill he gets (brok Q - Broken Wings allows her to dash-attack towards a target for up to three times, each giving Runic Blade charges. Her W - Ki Burst lets her emit a stun field around her, while E - Valor gives her a shield as she dashes forward. Lastly, Ult - Blade of t...

JerAx said to OG, " I have no willingness nor passion to play Dota 2 anymore, and I have trouble fitting myself into my competitor’s shoes." Which means just like Ana, JerAx also continues to face the underlying problem that is having to face the same challenge you've already completed. By the look of things, the issue isn't that they don't have the skills to play, it's that they don't have passion. It's unknown if whether the rest of OG's Dota 2 team feels the same, but if they do, this could m...

Older players got to experience this item's power and know why it was quickly removed. Before the start of season three, Madred's Bloodrazor continues to dominate the rift. A very high-cost item but allows each basic attack to deal 4% of the target's maximum health as bonus magic damage. Pairing with a 40% attack speed makes this item extremely powerful. Primarily built on champions with AD, it allows them to destroy tanks who stack armor resist because of the bonus magic damage. Along with the ...

Unfortunately, the amount of diversity that’s possible leads to quite a bit of discourse, and there are few things that consistent top laners will agree on.

"Because of all the reasons I listed in the above question, this one has been expensive, I’m not going to lie. It’s amazing how much more efficient you are after you’ve worked with a material for a bit. I would say I’ve easily spent twice as much money on this project and maybe quadruple the amount of time as anything I’ve done before. In the end, I think it’s really taken on a life of its own, and even if no one else can appreciate it, I will have learned so much from it that it will all be wor...

And yeah, I know these $60, AAA titles still have some greed to work through (like $10 DLC for Titanfall that's just three maps), but it's all manageable, and Dota 2 is still the only game to do free to play right.

A Jungler is a player who plays mostly within the jungle of the map, focusing on the wolves, golems and buff monsters that live within it.

Learning proper routes of the jungle is important, as there are a few different ways to go about approaching the jun Today marks the 25th anniversary of the origi...

Although some cinematic trailers aren't any kind of indicator of what a game will be like, a few companies have mastered the art of using trailers to capture the tone and mood of an upcoming project. But when n the realm of CG cinematic trailers, nobody does it better than Blizza Most early video games, such as Pong in 1972, featured multiplayer modes. This was likely due to expectations from analog games, which were almost always played in person with friends and family. Early multiplayer modes...
