Rampaging from Zaun to Piltover, League of Legends’s proverbial “loose cannon,” Jinx, exudes chaotic, maniacal energy from every aspect of her design. Whether it’s her cackling, gleeful voice lines celebrating anarchy and destruction, or her in-game player experience that revolves around utilizing a myriad of weapons to blast enemies and becoming super-charged when she successfully defeats them, Jinx fosters wild destruction on the R
When it comes to the loose cannon, there is no method to the madness—it’s all helter-skelter and that’s precisely how Jinx likes it. Sitting in a relaxed position, Fishbones resting on her shoulders, within an industrial environment, it’s clear to anyone who knows Jinx that a rampage is about to be
The entire goal of the game for opposing teams is to stop this hero from getting a Blink Dagger. If they can’t, then it’s only a matter of time before a Black Hole hits the entire team. Those smart enough to stay apart become easy fodder for Enigma’s friendly carr
How exactly do you pull off those big plays and awesome ganks in DOTA 2 or other MOBA Patch analysis s? By communicating. Typing is too slow and not everyone has a mic or has enough social bravery to speak with their squeaky voice in-game so minimap pings and marks are pretty stand
Then there’s the issue of how you spend your time in each match. Since those matches are shorter, seconds in Wild Rift are more precious than ever. Pre-made item sets have been a feature in the PC version of League for years, but you’ll definitely want to embrace them in Wild Rift if you aren’t already in the habit. There’s not enough time for you to sit at the shop, sorting and searching for what item you want to equip to your champion n
Proudly leaning on “Fishbones,” the rocket launcher has received a makeover that explicitly expresses anti-living-dead warnings, as seen by the crossed-out green face and the “x-eyed” barrel. This iteration of Jinx showcases her morally gray nature—happiest when blowing things up, she can fight on the side of good or evil depending on what exactly is being destro
Paying homage to the genre of Magical Girls, specifically Sailor Moon , League’s Star Guardian skins reimagine champions as planetary defenders fighting for love and justice. While Jinx is certainly not a character that leaps to mind when it comes to playing the hero, including her—despite her reluctance—in the Star Guardian lineup makes for a wonderful new take on the champ
Toating her rocket launcher and smirking to the side, @florbcosplay’s cosplay embodies Jinx’s rhetorical question posed to her weapon: “Hey Fishbones, should we blow something up?” The answer, of course, will always be an explosive, rubble-rousing “yes.” The chaos exhibited by Jinx is expressed in more subtle ways , too, as seen in the un-tied and un-laced bo
The vandalism, too, coincides with Jinx’s whimsical clouds-and-shells tattoos and creates an aesthetic appeal that not only realizes the in-game design of the character but also her drive for wanton havoc—a beautiful day for Jinx is one full of fiery explosions, whizzing bullets, and buckling buildi
While there are many support heroes in the game, there are very few true healers. Preventing damage or adding life affects the battle at its very core; the hero with life remaining at the end of the fight w
The length of games is parred down, too. In our conversations with Riot, they tell us that even some users on PC are looking for shorter League of Legends matches. On mobile, the company wants to provide 15-20 minute experiences that still preserve the strategy and depth of a typical game. That means the map is a little smaller and tower health has been appropriately sca
Riot tells us the dev team is prioritizing getting classic League champions out the door, expecting to get about two champions out the door per month through 2021. Right now, Wild Rift sports 61 champions, not even half of the PC version’s roster of 156, but there are still plenty out there to fill each laning r
Tomorrow, Wild Rift will open its doors to the masses on both Android and iOS. In our preview of Wild Rift, we found it to be a compact, yet robust, version of League of Legends that may even be preferable to the original version. So, what does Wild Rift launch with tomorrow, and what does the future h
Do not auto-attack the creeps, only try to get last hits for the cash, since pushing into an enemy tower gives foes free and safe farming. And attack allied creeps when they are low on health to make it more likely the enemy pushes to where the player hero can casually gain gold and experie
With a stern and determined countenance, @windwalk_cosplay represents the honor-bound and duty-driven nature of Garen as a character. Born into the prestigious Crownguard family and leader of the Dauntless Vanguard, Garen’s service to the royal family of Demacia and its military are integral to his identity, an element that this polished cosplay dutifully captu
