G2 Esports in the EU LCS 2018

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen,

I’m right back to finally write this article that I wanted so much to do, about the Spring Split of the EU LCS 2018. I waited until the end of the first phase, before focusing in the different lineups, new compositions of teams, my feelings and impressions.

Above all, it’s unsurprisingly that Rekkles obtained the record of CS/mn, with an average of 12,2. So we’ve got a long way to go before this high ELO, but to play like a pro involves a very high concentration, and this is precisely what G2 Esports did. After a hard start, the Kings of Europe came back strong and won the majority of their matches. Being myself a big fan of this fantastic team, I decided to study in more details three of their games : the victory against H2K, their defeat during the Clash of the Titans against Fnatic, and their wonderful and landslide victory facing Vitality.

The Runes Reforged

Runes Reforged, 1 month later

Here they are, the runes are now reforged for a month, and after long games we better understand the new gameplay. When they arrived, many players didn’t know how to play, some didn’t like them, some loved, but it is with experience that we learn. In this article, I will lend my pen to a few friends, who will give their thoughts, and then a little manual for these runes.

Step by step, Runes Reforged will become easy and evident.

The union of Runes and Masteries

On the official website, we see that runes and masteries are now one thing, saying that they are free. So cool ! Oh wait.. pages are not.. Yes, we all have the five premade pages with the five different branches, and the number of pages that we had before the patch. Some will have many, while some don’t.. You can for sure use the premade ones, while you can create new ones, made by yourself or simply copied on pro-players’ pages.

Legends Never Die

The Rift is wearing the Worlds color

From the 23rd of September until the 4th of November, the so waited World Championships finally arrived, to close this season. From Wuhan to Guangzhou, the fight is raging in the rift. We saw a lot of happiness but inevitably disappointments as well. However, this year will remain an excellent one, and one question rises again and again until the end, who'll win and become kings ? Who will earn the fantastic dotation of $1 000 000 (882 200 €) ? But before that, let’s jump back onto the Group Stage, where we got a lot of surprise !

League of Legends for Newbies

The most popular game in the world

Its name : League of Legends, developed by Riot Games, an American society based in California. LoL was released in 2009, and until today, its popularity increased in the entire world. With many competitions all through the year, professional players are considered as real athletes and it counts about 100 million summoners.

My article will help newbies ("New in Buisness") to discover this game, or will make pros laugh because they already know everything !

A weekend at the LCS

🎮League of Legends is not only a game

The weekend of September 2nd and 3rd, took place the European championships of the online popular game League of Legends, otherwise called « EU LCS Summer Split ». It was the first time that I personally assisted to this kind of events, and you may as well say that back to reality was hard. A crowd composed of 10 000 crazy people, excellent hosts and players who made us shiver, in very beautiful matches. In a word, it was a weekend largely exceeding my expectations. And to those who think that League is a simplistic battle arena for retarded gamers only, just know that no overflow happened, and if it was to be only a game, then how do you explain the following picture :
