Overwatch is going all out for its Halloween Terror event with new skins and in-game rewards, plus the return of Junkenstein’s Revenge co-op mode. Every week, Junkenstein will offer new and spooky character-themed winner rewards: nine wins in each of the three weeks will yield icons, sprays, and skins for Junkrat, Baptiste, and Sombra, in that or
Arrow season 7 opened with Oliver Queen in prison as a result of a plea bargain to buy immunity for his fellow vigilantes. Unfortunately, Star City went to hell in a hand-basket without its heroes, leaving a new Green Arrow ( who is apparently Oliver Queen’s half-sister ) to pick up the slack. Thankfully, Oliver was freed from prison and hired on by the SCPD as a consultant so he could continue saving his city without violating the new anti-vigilante laws, though it remains to be seen if an accord can be reached between the new Green Arrow and the old
Though OG didn’t find consistent Dota 2 success throughout 2019, one player among their ranks powered them to victory at the biggest tournament of the year. Then-19-year-old Anathan “ana” Pham returned to OG in March after an extended hiatus. With ana back on the roster, OG began their climb back to peak form. They qualified for the MDL Disneyland Paris Major, and placed 5-6th at the main event. They then competed in ESL One Birmingham and the EPICENTER Major, placing 7-8th at both tournaments. The International 2019 arrived, and OG immediately exerted their dominance over their group stage opponents. To much surprise, ana played Io, traditionally a support hero, in the carry position. With that out-of-the-box pick, OG were able to top the group stage and secure a play-offs upper bracket berth. OG then took down Evil Geniuses, PSG.LGD, and Team Liquid to become the first team to ever win The International tw
_ Tekken _ phenom Arslan “Arslan Ash” Siddique skyrocketed to the top of the fighting game scene in 2019. Though he competed in very few professional events the year prior, Arslan Ash cemented his name in FGC history in 2019. The 24-year-old kicked off the year at Evolution Championship Series Japan, where a lower bracket run ended in a Grand Final victory over Alexandre “AK” Laverez. He next won the TGU x SEA Thailand Major over two-time EVO champion Jae-Min “Knee” Bae. The _ Tekken 7 _ star then doubled up on his EVO Japan title, defeating Knee once again to take home the EVO Las Vegas title. He became the first player to win EVO Japan and Las Vegas in the same y
Finally, after years of mediocre performance and fierce competition from games like League of Legends , the Proleague was discontinued in 2016. Blizzard had very badly dropped its Golden Goose of a franchise that could have gone on to dominate the esports wo
Similar to real chess and squad RPGs positioning is key to succeeding in this game. It’s very important to have your units positioned properly so they can provide support and protection for each ot
Genesis opens by explaining that humans and aliens teamed up to go through a portal in space. There are unknown dangers on the other side, which warranted the formation of a group of specialized individuals. Right after, you’re dropped onto a single-lane bridge and put in control of the beginner-friendly archer hero. Sound familiar? I immediately had flashbacks to the League of Legends tutorial. Genesis does try to set itself apart by focusing more on story. The tutorial introduces mysterious aliens that attack our alliance of heroes. What they are, and why they’re hostile, is a matter for the campaign. Oh yeah, there’s a full-on campaign mode. Too bad it doesn’t work at the moment, an issue the devs are actively fixi
For instance, winning nine rounds in a row will give you three gold and if you successfully beat the creep rounds you get to pick the item that you want instead of relying on the gods of RNG to save you. Losses aren’t the end of the world, but winning is how you, you know,
After playing several hours of Genesis , I have this vague desire to play more. I don’t totally credit that to anything unique to Genesis , however. The simplified experience is nice in some ways. I didn’t use voice chat, and there’s obviously no text chat, so other players couldn’t be toxic without going out of the way to send PMs, which didn’t happen. The connection was surprisingly stable even on wi-fi. It was also nice to play a Moba team composition without a definitive meta, with beginners who are just there to have fun (and don’t have the map awareness to avoid my gan
Little is known about this animated film, which was first announced through a leaked trailer that was meant to appear before the home video release of Teen Titans Go! To The Movies. It has been confirmed, however, that Warner Bros. Animation truly is making a movie that will pit the Teen Titans of Teen Titans Go! against the Teen Titans of the 2003 Teen Titans anime. The movie is planned to be released near the end of the year in 2019, though it remains to be seen if it will be a direct-to-video release or a theatrical rele
