When you begin the MOBA Game Items, the Relic Shield and Health Potion will suffice for the first couple minutes of the laning phase, but for your early game items you want to get Boots of Speed and a Kindlegem. For your upgraded set of boots, it is common to go with Boots of Mobility if you want to be aggressive in lane and get early kills, but Leona may benefit more from the resistances given by Mercury Treads. During the early game it would also be wise to invest in either a Chain Vest or Stopwatch as both will help Leona tank up and build into a Gargoyle Stoneplate. Stopwatch's unique active, Stasis, can be used when in the middle of a fight to dodge incoming attacks by making her unable to attack or be attacked for 2.5 seconds, but it can only be used o
Overall, Yone's extreme amount of mobility and damage makes for yet another character destined to terrorize the Rift with katana(s) in hand. It also seems as though Yone will be more suited for newer players to pick up , as all of his abilities can forgive mistakes much more readily than his brother Yasuo's. On top of that, he's bound to be extremely adept at farming CS like his brother, giving new players yet another reason to pick up and try out Yone. Interestingly enough, Yone's kit synergizes very well with Yasuo's, as Yone can use his two knock-ups to enable Yasuo's ultimate. While it remains to be seen which lane Yone will inevitably call home, and how players will ultimately prefer to build him, it's already abundantly clear that players will be seeing Yone around the Rift for a long time to c
Shen is directly mentioned in this meme due to his ultimate, which lets him teleport to foes across the map at an unusual speed. Top laners in general will still be frequent users of Teleport, a Summoner Spell that allows them to do the same thing. Often, this can be done to return to the lane quickly, as it’s a long walk for many slow champi
However, as this meme from Reddit showcases using an edited comic from Owlturd , failure can make it much easier to just leave the lane to those who know it. You should never let one failure determine your entire future, but sometimes it’s more relaxing to just go back to your usual r
Players will recognize both components of Yone's passive, as they can be seen in practice with Sett and Yasuo. Sett shares the capability to deal increased damage on every second hit of his auto attacks, and Yasuo also has doubled crit-chance. This should make Yone's hybrid passive feel very familiar to players who have frequented both of his predecess
The top lane has changed drastically in the past few years, much thanks to a greater diversity of archetypes that can fit into each role. While the top lane used to be mostly populated by heavy tanks, this meme successfully illustrates how some of the game’s best current top laners are vicious fighters with an alarming amount of speed and dam
Other heroes have seen reductions in the movement speed of their base kit or of certain abilities, which is in line with the changes made the movement speed items listed above. Batrider’s Firefly speed bonus, Bloodseeker’s Thirst, Broothmother’s Spin Web, and Death Prophet are all heroes or abilities that have seen such movement speed reducti
Yone is a mobile melee attack-damage caster/assassin like his brother. Though it remains to be seen where Yone will fit into the meta, it's safe to say that mid-laners who are fond of the in-and-out, high-damage playstyle of Yasuo will find themselves right at home with Yone. This guide will get players familiar with Yone's abilities and started on the path to slicing up the trolls in /all chat with two katanas in h
The Taunt king ( sorry Teemo ) has severely fallen out of fashion over the last few years. He used to be a fantastic jungler because his ganks were legendary with his rolling, his taunting, and his knock-up. But so many champions now have abilities to counter his approaches that it renders his utility useless. As a result, players might be able to use Rammus in lower ranks to rise up, but will find it very difficult to leverage his abilities in higher tiers of difficu
Certain items have had their costs increase to reflect their strength and the broad utility that players gain from acquiring them early in the game. By upping their respective costs, players can skill benefit from each but will need to wait longer to afford each. The main price changes
This is where Yone and Yasuo's kits begin to diverge, as Yone's W is very straight forward. This ability is a large cone in front of Yone (a Yone Cone) that deals damage based on an enemy's maximum health. Yone then gains a shield based on how many champions he hit with the initial strike. Spirit Cleave is a defensive ability that requires Yone to be actively engaged in combat, so it lends itself to a very all-in playstyle if players want to get the most defensive value out of the abil
