FunPlus Phoenix parts ways with Tian

A day after letting go of star top laner Jang “Nuguri” Ha-gwon, FunPlus Phoenix has made the decision to part ways with jungler Gao “Tian” Tian-Liang. A mainstay on the LPL roster and a key part of the League of Legends team’s success over the past three years, Tian helped FPX and China achieve international recognization at Worlds 2019. Beating Europe’s G2 Esports in the finals in Paris and earning MVP of the series, Tian was depicted a year later in the Worlds 2020 anthem “Take Over” as Lee Sin, fighting atop of a mountain.

Here are the best weapons in New World

Weapons are everything in New World. As opposed to traditional MMORPGs, where class design is based on age-old fantasy archetypes, New World touts a system where progressing your skill and expertise with a specific weapon is how players progress.  Each weapon in the game is entirely unique and boasts countless skills and abilities that increase their relative strength levels as you progress through Aeternum. Keep in mind that the game is still in its early stages of testing, and the weapons that are considered “strong” now could very easily be nerfed into the ground by the time the game comes out on Aug.

How long is a Fortnite chapter?

Fortnite helped to popularize the season-based battle pass system for monetizing free-to-play games over the past few years. And along with having seasons, anyone who’s played the battle royale will notice that the game has “chapters” as well. Chapters in Fortnite serve as a way for the game’s developer, Epic Games, to divide up content and make significant updates to its map and lore. But new chapters happen much less frequently than seasons or any other changes to the game.

How to claim New World Twitch drops

The closed beta for Amazon Games’ new MMO, New World, launched today, and every prospective player is looking to make their way into the game. And, like many new releases with promotional testing periods, New World is partnering with streaming service and fellow Amazon subsidiary Twitch to give players who watch streams on the platform a chance at in-game drops.  And while players won’t be able to claim a beta key just by watching Twitch streams, they will be able to get their hands on some seriously intriguing pieces of loot.

How to fix the Version Mismatch error in Rocket League

While people are often advised to take breaks in between gaming sessions, most Rocket League players can’t help but queue up for another match right after they get out of one. After all, if you’re on a roll, you’ll want to play as many matches as possible while you’re feeling unbeatable. Pesky errors can prevent you from queueing up for your next match, however—and the Version Mismatch error is one of them.

KomodoHype officially becomes permanent PogChamp emote on Twitch

League player shows off power of AP Kai’Sa with pentakill

League of Legends players can build ability power on Kai’Sa in the mid lane so effectively right now that they can get easy pentakills. Sometimes, though, they’ll also die immediately after.  In a clip on Reddit shared by user NamiUltedJP, a League player who selected the Daughter of the Void hunted their enemies down one by one, only to be taken down immediately after scoring a pentakill.   The match was already in its late stage when a fight in front of the fourth drake of the game broke out.

The best champions in Wild Rift to dominate your lane

Considering how fast mobile gaming grew over the past decade, it’s surprising that it took this long for League of Legends, the most popular MOBA title in the world, to make its entrance into the mobile scene. It’s better to be late than to never arrive at all, though, and Riot Games is finally rolling out the mobile version of League, Wild Rift. While the game looks exactly like its PC version on mobile, Wild Rift wasn’t ported to the platform.

The best Goodra moveset in Pokémon Go

Goodra enters Pokémon Go today as one of it’s most sought after Dragon-types. In the RPG line of games, Goodra is considered one of the best pseudo-legendaries to trainers to stomp their competition. It seems like the same can be said in Pokémon Go with it boasting some of the highest damage and resistances around. Of course, its not as good as some other Dragon Pokémon due to its single Dragon typing, but it is still a powerhouse and something that can be useful in Gym Battles, Raids, or Fighting Team Rocket Go— but what moves should you run with it to get the best out of it?
