“Of course, he’s far from the perfect character. While deployed as a turret you’re immobile and generally unaware of what’s going on behind and beside you. Couple this with the fact your shield only deploys in the front and you can see that Bastion is incredibly vulnerable to attacks from the side, especially if a… Read more

Normally I dislike mobas, but I actually can enjoy HOTS due to its unique maps and the fact blizzard keeps putting out more. with league and dota’s standard maps just bore me and I know its to force team play it’s just boring for the casual player. HOTS at least for me gives me something new to look forward to every… Read more

Could this map get a bit more complicated? Read more

I almost win the first time I played it, they had 1 shot left, but we where slower on getting the towers... D: Read more

I really like how much time Blizz is putting into introducing new maps/modes on a consistent basis.

Today Blizzard released an overview video for Heroes of the Storm’s new map “Towers of Doom,” which, in a unique twist on the standard MOBA formula, doesn’t actually allow players to directly attack the enemy’s core. It sounds a tad complicated, so I recommend watching before you queue up for a match.

Our colleagues at Kotaku UK have the moving story of how the creators of Dying Light memorialized a 17-year-old boy who loved their game. A really touching tribute. Read more

I’m kind of glad I clicked this. Usually I don’t like knowing how to get places in Souls games, but I would have never ever ever found that. Read more

It’s interesting; Snowdown Showdown was originally mostly Christmas-themed skins. I mean, there’s even Santa Gragas. Read more

The hot chocolate has sealed the Bard skin purchase, as far as I am concerned. Read more

Gamers get a lot of flack for being rancid angry and unreasonable trolls, but, to their/our credit you’re not going to see a big group of entitled gamers boycotting LoL for waging cyber war on Christmas for their aptly named “Snow Day” Read more

I thought he was Captain Falcon for a second

Sounds similar to how Bungie didn’t want people to consider Destiny an MMO-shooter and instead used all these awkward buzzwords and vague descriptors to try and pique people’s interests in their new endeavour, but ultimately left everyone confused as to what to expect. Read more

It’s always felt to me that they simply don’t want to be lumped in with other MOBAs due to the negative connotations a good portion of the gaming community associates with them. Blizzard is more interested in attracting players that have never played a MOBA or dropped out of them (due to fears/experiences with… Read more

First off, this is much ado about nothing. Everyone calls it a MOBA anyway, and despite them trying to reclassify their game, everyone’s going to keep calling it a MOBA. Read more

Agree that literally everyone knows it’s a MOBA and trying to not call it MOBA is dumb, but I highly doubt it’s as damaging as you think it is. ESPECIALLY the point about Ultimates/Heroics. It’s just not a big deal, and saying it’s hubris or tonedeaf or going to hurt the game is just....incorrect. Read more

Europe’s best League of Legends team just lost two of its star players. This afternoon Fnatic announced that Heo “Huni” Seung-hoon and Kim “Reignover” Yeu-jin, the team’s top laner and jungler, are both leaving for “career opportunities in another region.” No word on what region that is yet.

I can’t watch the video, but technically that Naz could have accomplished his goal given a few things: he had enough stacks to have built up his health pool (unlikely, since he’s only lvl 10) AND he took Gargantuan (unclear from the GIFs what ult he had). Read more

You lost me, then you found me again. Read more
