Last week, we talked about the basic functions and abilities of support champions in League of Legends: initiation, disengage, healing, shielding, pick-offs, general protection, tankiness, damage, and crowd control. To give that list some context, I'd like to talk...

The new Path of Exile league starts up in a few weeks, and players are already starting to plan their builds. There are a lot of factors it's important to consider for your first build, but the most important thing is...

Events have finally come to Hearthstone. The Midsummer Fire Festival has been a huge hit, and now, we're starting to hear rumors about another upcoming event, the Frost Festival. Based on what we've seen so far, Hearthstone events mostly involve giving...

It's that time of year again. Blizzard is starting to tease out details about the newest Hearthstone expansion. We've even got a name for the upcoming release: Knights of the Frozen Throne. It's slated for release in August, and Blizzard is...

Some amazing news is coming to Hearthstone about card packs. Here's the deal: Hearthstone, at least in its current state, has simply become too expensive for new players to begin playing. Even veterans have been feeling the heat. Journey to Un'Goro...

This isn't the first time, and it hopefully won't be the last, but Hearthstone's viewership is plummeting. Again. Hearthstone, as you're probably aware, is a digital card game. And yet, somehow, it receives less frequent updates than actual physical...
