Even though the Lego universe ultimately did fail, the franchise at least dropped a couple of solid efforts before fading into cinematic obscurity. The same can’t be said for Warner Bros.’ planned King Arthur universe. Released in 2017 and starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword certainly had promise as a standalone venture, with Guy Ritchie directing and Jude Law in a key villainous role. In reality, the movie was widely trashed in reviews and made a huge loss for Warner Bros. financially. All of which makes the studio’s plans for a six-film shared universe seem all the more ridicul
Fight in the mid-lane and bully enemies as much as possible using Devour. If the enemy tries to duel you’ll get fairly easy kills, but most are too smart for this so stick to bullying. Camp farming and knocking down towers will be your other goal in this ph
With the season just halfway through, it can be argued that all five Cloud9 members are worthy of winning the Spring Split MVP. Each of them are dominating in their own way, but perhaps none are more deserving than Zven. Playing excellent both mechanically and mentally, Zven along with his support Vulcan have dominated the bot lane this season, and week 5 was no different. Zven played an excellent Varus against CLG, who Cloud9 unsurprisingly beat. What was surprising, however, was Cloud9’s choice of bot lane in their second game against Immortals. Zven actually played “support” Senna, while Vulcan went Tahm Kench, acting as the “carry.” This is a strategy similar to what Dignitas Academy employed in their matchup against Golden Guardians Academy, where AD carry Fenix went Senna and support Olleh went Galio. Fenix “supported” Olleh as he farmed with Ga
The concept is a full enhancement of Malzahar’s default splash art. His flowing robe has been turned into a metal suit with even the visible portions of his face mechanized. His hands which would normally glow with a primed Malefic Visions are instead lighting up in preparation to blast energy. Even his voidling has a mechanical makeo
Man of Steel proved a divisive first chapter to the DCEU, but that polarizing response would be a mere taster compared to the reaction Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice would attract in 2016. With a critically-panned Suicide Squad and a Justice League team-up movie that people disliked so intensely they (successfully!) campaigned for the release of a director’s cut, the DCEU certainly didn’t get off to the start Warner Bros. would’ve liked. Nevertheless, the franchise must still be considered a success. Outside of the releases mentioned above, Wonder Woman , Aquaman and Shazam all found varying levels of joy by adhering less strictly to the shared universe format. Having settled into its own grove, more DCEU releases are now on the way, extending the franchise into 2022 and likely beyond. The confirmed release of the Justice League of Legends patch notes Snyder cut will ensure the DCEU remains of cultural significance for the next 12 mon
However, the worry lies in the risk of hacking and exploits. Games such as ML have such a massive player base that a lot of accounts get banned for map hacking (revealing where opponents are), hacking accounts, and other cybercrimes. Hopefully, Riot Games has a robust-enough security system to keep these threats in ch
We might not have seen Riot Squad Singed with those Gangster Poros, but this is a skin concept we could get behind. Singed occupies that weird area where it’s hard to give him a unique skin which seems relevant. VegaColors seems to have cracked the code on t
Godzilla: King of the Monsters duly followed in 2019 and fully cracked open the doors of the MonsterVerse, introducing Mothra, Ghidorah and numerous other Titans waiting in the wings, of which Kong was one. In both critical and commercial terms, King of the Monsters was afforded a more lukewarm response in comparison to the previous 2 entries in the series, but Warner Bros. and Legendary are pressing ahead with their scheduled showdown between Kong and Godzilla none the less. The fate of the MonsterVerse likely hinges entirely on the performance of Godzilla vs. Kong later this year; the upcoming clash could elevate the cinematic universe in the same way The Avengers did for the MCU, but if there’s no significant improvement upon King of the Monsters , it’s hard to see the franchise continuing further. As things stand, however, the MonsterVerse has generally proved successful for Warner Bros . and could yet become a leading cinematic unive
Not to be confused with Universal’s Dark Universe (which failed, incidentally), the MonsterVerse is essentially a modern interpretation of the aforementioned Toho franchise that saw Godzilla and an array of other monsters do battle, usually in a surprisingly flimsy urban landscape. The franchise began with 2014’s Godzilla reboot, and by purchasing the rights to various other Toho beasts, Warner Bros. signaled their intention to develop the lore of their MUTO world . However, the MonsterVerse only kicked off proper with Warner Bros.’ involvement in Kong: Skull Island , a reboot of the titular gorilla’s big screen st
