When it comes to the most impactful roles in League of Legends, most players immediately look towards the jungle, which has been vital to solo queue success since the beginning of the 2021 season. But in the team-focused landscape of professional play, another role takes precedent in shot-calling, teamfighting, and overall map awareness: support. Support players in professional League have stood out as some of the most important and impactful players throughout 2021. Yet this impact is predominantly driven through the small pool of meta picks—Thresh, Leona, Nautilus, and Rell—that

Each year, hundreds of professional League of Legends players compete in a dozen leagues across the world. And since the game’s professional scene is splintered into these regional leagues, it makes it difficult for the best players from their respective regions to compete with each other on a consistent basis.  At the World Championship, though, the strongest players from each corner of the globe congregate, treating fans to memorable moments and “instant classic” games. Perhaps it’s the rarity of matches played between some of League’s biggest stars that makes Worlds

Overwatch at its highest level has overwhelmingly been run by tanks and supports for the past few years. From the omnipresent GOATS meta of 2019 to the dull double-shield brought on by Sigma’s introduction, the top tier of the game has revolved around everyone except damage dealers.  This year, something shifted. Whether due to Hero Pools or improved balance changes, the Overwatch League somehow morphed into a smarter version of its inaugural self. Compositions reverted from slow and steady to fast-paced and chaotic, inviting sneaky Sombras, quick-shooting cowboys, and snappy

As of now, there are 121 heroes in Dota 2, and each of them belongs to a certain playstyle group that you’ll need to adapt to after picking a character. Some heroes will
