Breaking Down Dota 2 Patch 7.26a

Certain items have had their costs increase to reflect their strength and the broad utility that players gain from acquiring them early in the game. By upping their respective costs, players can skill benefit from each but will need to wait longer to afford each. The main price changes


Leona's abilities are geared towards getting in the middle of the fight and using crowd control abilities to allow her teammates to land their damage. Here is a basic overview of her abilities and when she might benefit from using t


If players need more tokens to purchase items, they can buy the Spirit Blossom Pass for 1650 RP. Purchasing the pass will automatically add 4 Kanmei Orbs and Brawl stars tier list 2025 200 Spirit Blossom Tokens. However they also get 25 tokens for each Spirit Bond rank for a total of 1000 extra Spirit Blossom Tokens. Finally, the pass also unlocks Milestone rewards and tokens for every match played during the ev


In addition, Supernova scepter upgrade no longer allows Phoenix to cast Sun Ray, whereas the level 20 Talent has changed from a +1.25 second Supernova Stun Duration to Sun Ray During Supernova. While no one enjoys seeing their favorite character nerfed, and there are many fans of Phoenix, these changes were necessary and simply take the hero from overpowered to within a far more acceptable range of po


While the complexity of Spirit Blossom 2020 may be initially confusing, Spirit Bonds are just slightly renamed missions with a similar progression system. And there seems to be more to this Ionian festival and summer event than described so far, as several Spirit Blossom skins are releasing at a later date along with Yone, the presumed masked man from the teas


Leona's Zenith Blade is her third active ability and it allows Leona to project a solar image of her sword in a straight line with a limited range. If an enemy is hit by the sword's projection, magic damage is dealt to them and Leona dashes to the enemy hit last. When Leona dashes to an enemy hit by Zenith Blade, they are rooted for 0.5 seconds. In the early game, this ability is best used to punish enemy Champions that are alone in lane or may be coming a little too close to the minion wave, but later on in the game it will be your tool of choice for initiating fights and landing Shield of Daybreak. Following this ability up with her Shield of Daybreak allows her to immobilize an enemy champion for a whole 1.5 seconds, more than enough time for a teammate to land his or her's next crowd control abil


Zoom does everything JDG requires him to at near perfection. If JDG needs hard engage and a frontline, Zoom will play the best Ornn in the world. If JDG needs top lane domination, Zoom does exactly that on Renekton and Camille. There is no variance with Zoom and in a region that has plenty of instability, Zoom’s stability lands him as the best top laner in the wo


Other heroes have seen reductions in the movement speed of their base kit or of certain abilities, which is in line with the changes made the movement speed items listed above. Batrider’s Firefly speed bonus, Bloodseeker’s Thirst, Broothmother’s Spin Web, and Death Prophet are all heroes or abilities that have seen such movement speed reducti


Instead of traditional missions, 10 Spirit Bonds will be forged during Spirit Blossom 2020. To start, players need to click on each champion's picture to meet them and begin earning favor, the point system for different rewards. Make sure to talk to all the available portraits immediately since favor won't count for champions that haven't been spoken


Leona's passive, Sunlight, applies a 1.5 second debuff to enemies hit by any of her abilities. When afflicted by Sunlight, damage dealt by ally champions will consume the debuff and deal bonus magic damage based on Leona's current level. Since only ally champions can consume the sunlight charge, Leona will benefit the most from this passive by using teamwork and sticking near her team's


In Nexus Blitz you're going to be constantly dealing damage and receiving damage. The Ocean Soul reward ensures that every trade is in your favor because it allows you to restore health and mana when dealing damage to the enemy. The effect only lasts 3 minutes, but that is plenty of time to decimate your opponents with your superior sust


Kanavi may be the best jungler the LPL has ever sent to the World Championship. The Korean import fully embodies the patented LPL aggression with his champion pool (Lee Sin, Nidalee, Graves) and mechanics. He consistently finds advantages against enemy junglers through optimal pathing, counter-jungling, and ganking. He seems to know exactly when to start fights and how to set up his team for success. He spent the year outplaying some of the best junglers in the world, like Tian and Karsa, and he looks to do the same at Wor


Leona's first active ability, Shield of Daybreak, has Leona use her shield to perform her next auto-attack. This next attack deals bonus magic damage to an enemy and stuns them for 1 second. This ability works best when it can be followed up with more crowd control from Leona's teammates. Essentially, Leona's Shield of Daybreak is meant to be the first ability used on an enemy that gives her teammates time and opportunity to land their abilities on the target as w
