Zombie Apocalypse, Escape Low Elo With Wards...

[quote=Wayne3100][center][img=http://www.mobafire.com/images/news/riot-compilation-024.jpg width=550][/center] [rule] Hello everyone and welcome to another Riot news compilation post, where we give you a quick overview of the news content created by Riot in the past couple of days. Although the news post regarding this year's Harrowing event is easily the most important tidbit of news on display today, we're also making sure to shortly highlight an article which discusses the importance of wards in League of Legends and shows some interesting statistics regarding the amount of wards purchased by the average player in every tier of ranked play. Seriously, just buy them. Outside of the Harrowing news (which includes the release of three new skins, the temporary return of previous Harrowing skins and a bunch of purchasable bundles), there are also some posts to wrap up the 2015 World Championship action (warning: there's a spoiler in one of the titles below), another completed Q&A with a Rioter, two champion and skin sale posts and more. That's all for now, make sure to leave your thoughts on these articles in the comments below!
