This might sound harsh, but it’s practically the only option that doesn’t feel gross here. The lack of empathy it would take to read Stephanie’s account, then try and sweep it under the rug through plausible deniability would be downright inhumane. On top of that, Riot can’t just continue to ignore the mounting criticisms that Seraphine’s Diet Rite brand of mental illness is exploitative on multiple levels, nor can they truly wash away the proverbial stank from her original l
** TheGamer: ** When designing Agents, one goal is to create characters who will make for exciting team comps. However, I was curious if you ever develop Agents specifically to be “appealing” or “easier” for new players? I got the impression that Killjoy might be an Agent meant for newb
At the same time, there is plenty of growth left for future events and scheduling. PsyOps 2020 had the unfortunate circumstance of coming right after Spirit Blossom and during the Worlds 2020 hype period. Since Samira’s release skin was tied to PsyOps, there wasn’t any other time the event could release, but it still contributed to being overshadowed alongside the shorter 3-week duration. Finally, K/DA’s comeback was heavily anticipated by players since August, but the group was only Worlds 2020’s closing act. With the promotion across Teamfight Tactics and Legends of Runeterra in addition to Seraphine’s storyline, K/DA could easily have earned their own event alongside the ALL OUT album released last week. At this point, fans can only believe this will happen with an eventual third ret
The lone DCEU movie coming out in 2021 is James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad . Gunn’s take on Task Force X has been described as neither a sequel to the 2016 Suicide Squad or a reboot. The R-rated film will be something of both, it appears, as it includes familiar and new characters. Returning characters include Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), Captain Boomerang (Jai Courtney), and Amanda Waller (Viola Davis). Some of the new faces that appear in The Suicide Squad are Bloodsport (Idris Elba) and Peacemaker (John Cena). The Suicide Squad is coming out in theaters and on HBO Max on August 6, 2
There are several champions who dedicate their lives to fighting those who would destroy Runeterra, and Maokai is one of them. Maokai can create saplings that run towards an enemy and explode, while his ultimate summons a moving wall of branches and thorns which root and damage anyone in its p
By doing away with the character entirely, Riot could come down on the right side of this. Instead of sticking their fingers in their ears and pretending there isn’t a problem, this is an opportunity for the company to show it actually cares about its players. It’s an opportunity for them to forgo a few million on top of their billions, and to actually help soothe harm done to a real person. It’s also an opportunity for them to retire their abhorrent marketing strategy for Seraphine, which would do a lot to garner goodwill and help win back people they might have alienated. Sure, it’s the path of least profit, meaning that they likely won’t do any of this. However, from the perspective of moral imperative, it’s the only right course of action to t
Marvel Studios’ third movie in 2021 will be Eternals . The new MCU franchise follows a group of superhumans known as Eternals who were created by the powerful cosmic entities known as Celestials. Marvel assembled a talented ensemble to play the relatively obscure comic characters in Phase 4. Richard Madden and Gemma Chan play the lead roles of Ikaris and Sersi. The rest of the cast includes Kumail Nanjiani, Lauren Ridloff, Brian Tyree Henry, Salma Hayek, Lia McHugh, Don Lee, Angelina Jolie, Barry Keoghan, and Kit Harington. Eternals is directed by Chloe Zhao and comes out on November 5, 2
** Max Grossman: ** Very important. It’s something that I know tangentially, as we have guys on our art teams that are hyper dedicated to this stuff, but I can give you my layman’s take on it. The most important thing is that every Agent stands out in the environments in some capacity. No camouflaged-looking dudes running through the environment cause if somebody is shooting at you, we don’t want players ever to go, “Huh, where could they be in the environment?” Valorant isn’t a hidden-object game. It’s about you knowing someone’s there and you can have a fight with them. The bright yellow jacket is pushing the extremes of what we are trying to do in that super high visibility. But it’s a super important consideration for
After 11 months of battling on Summoner’s Rift, league of legends Support guide of Legends Season 10 came to a close earlier this week for players across the world. While the community quickly adapted and even started playing more matches due to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic, Riot Games also continued providing plenty of updates for its decade-old M
From my perspective, then, there’s only really one decent thing Riot could do in this situation. For over a month, the public has rebuked Seraphine’s existence. Her in-canon profiting from genocide, her insincere and creepy Twitter account, and now, the fact that she’s very likely based on a former employee’s ex. This character has been deemed unacceptable by fans and casual observers alike, so in my opinion, it’s time to do away with her entir
