The main question being discussed is why Bel’veth lost, even though she had a strong start with a 3-star rating and good items. Six_quinn explained he built her for high damage and healing, which usually leads to victory, but it didn’t work out this time. Losing to Tahm Kench, a naturally tanky champion, makes people wonder if Bel’veth is effective against tough opponents. IamnotDanny pointed out that, like in League of Legends, Bel’veth relies too much on being able to quickly reset her attacks. The opposing team having Kindred made things even harder by preventing those resets, highlighting how important careful positioning and timing are in Teamfight Tactics.

I’m really loving the new champions that came with patch 16.1! It’s been a huge hit with everyone, and I’m having a blast. One player, JordanMaccc, said it best – they found it ‘very fun,’ and I agree! I especially like how easy it is to unlock the new champions. The champions themselves are so unique and unexpected, and it’s inspiring players to try out all sorts of crazy team builds. I can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Players on this subreddit are finding real success with Demacia-based strategies. They highlight how dependable and well-coordinated Demacian champions are. One player even suggested continuing to play Demacia if you’ve already built key items for Galio, as Galio, with the right build, can create a nearly impenetrable defense. The strong teamwork between Demacian champions allows for solid defensive plays and the ability to withstand attacks from more aggressive teams.

Darius feels like a superhero’s less-powerful sidekick. While other champions have impressive abilities, he often feels overlooked and only used as a last resort. One player, “butt_shrecker,” believes Darius doesn’t quite fit the aggressive Noxian style or current team strategies. Instead of being a strong presence in the game, he often feels weak and unimportant. Right now, Darius simply lacks the exciting depth that players are looking for – he’s easily ignored in favor of more appealing options.

While Patch 25.24 was intended to improve game balance, it introduced some new problems. PankoKing recognized these issues and asked players to share their experiences. One player, u/akkodiluc, reported a strange incident: someone they hadn’t played with recently added them and started discussing the game. This raised a question among players about whether it’s normal for strangers to have these kinds of conversations, and it showed how complicated communication can get in such a large online game.

Videos like this one perfectly showcase how well-designed League of Legends is. They highlight incredible player skill, as seen with the Akali player effortlessly dodging and weaving around attacks, completely outplaying their opponent. The Akali player’s timing and use of abilities were so precise they left the Malphite player struggling to react. One commenter jokingly called the Malphite player “Most intelligent,” acknowledging how badly the encounter went for them. This clip sparks discussion: some people focus on the amazing skill of the winning player, while others point out how unlucky the losing player was.

A key strength of Faker’s leadership, as shown here, is his talent for noticing and responding to his teammates’ emotions. He noticed Doran becoming increasingly anxious, observing uncharacteristic errors in his gameplay. This demonstrates Faker is more than just a highly skilled player; he’s a strategist who understands the psychological side of competition. His ability to accurately assess Doran’s mental state shows both his vast experience in stressful situations and his capacity to remain calm and analytical.

Eddie Munson, the metal-loving leader of the Hellfire Club who debuted in Season 4, quickly won over fans. Sadly, he bravely sacrificed himself to protect his friends from Vecna.

When Renegades came out, everyone immediately started figuring out how everything worked. I remember seeing a question from someone named alphabetsoupsss – they just wanted to know if you had to own the older DLCs to play it! A lot of us were in the same boat, trying to understand what you needed to get the most out of it. The general consensus was that you didn’t need the previous expansions, but they could definitely add to the experience. Some people thought you might miss some story details if you jumped straight into Renegades, but it would still be fun. It really got me thinking about how much all these expansions connect, and if we were all missing out on some important backstory!

A recent analysis of data from over 4,000 teams in the contest mode reveals a significant issue with the Hunter class. As Reddit user iconoci highlighted, a staggering 78% of players chose not to include a Hunter on their teams. This clearly shows the community feels Hunters are currently hindering performance rather than helping it. Once known for their speed and ability to avoid damage, Hunters are now largely considered a weak choice, and players are frustrated with the class’s current state. Iconoci put it bluntly: “It’s disheartening to see a class so underpowered that most teams exclude it altogether.” This sentiment is widely shared by the community, who are hoping for changes to improve the Hunter’s viability.
