Jinx is one of the starter champions you can use in League of Legends’ new PvE mode Swarm. Starting a new mode can be scary when you’re unsure of the best build path. Don’t worry; we can give you the best Jinx build in Swarm. Champions work slightly differently in Swarm, starting with their abilities. For example, Jinx’s auto ******* is essentially an upgraded version of her League basic *******. Once you hit level three, you unlock Jinx’s second ability, Fishbones, which fires multiple rockets at the target area and explodes on impact. This ability is great for escaping moments when you are trapped in a corner. The only remaining ability from traditional LoL is Super Mega ****** Rocket—but there are still more things to think about when building your Jinx in Swarm. View the full article

Out of all the companion characters in Baldur's Gate 3, Karlach has found a special place in the hearts of the community, as evidenced by this wonderfully chaotic cosplay that demonstrates the Barbarian flexing her might in Avernus. The Tiefling warrior, whose stature and brutality mask her wholesome energy, is a standout character in Larian Studios RPG largely because she's arguably the only genuinely good person that can recruited to the party. Still, it'd be a mistake to see that as a weakness as with an axe in her hand, Karlach is a fearsome combatant. View the full article

The new hotfix 1.0.3 for The First Descendant makes several improvements to the game, including giving players the ability to report AFK teammates and adjusting its Destiny-like mission icons. As one of 2024's most popular new looter shooters, The First Descendant has amassed a significant playerbase within its first month live, with an impressive 10 million players jumping in during its first week.

[/url] Nintendo's Joy-**** Charging Stand (Two-Way) seems useful, but it's coming out at a strange time in the console's lifecycle. [credit: Nintendo ] Nintendo's Switch launched in March of 2017, and all available information indicates that the company is on track to announce a successor early next year. It's that timing that makes the launch of Nintendo's latest Switch accessory so odd: The company has announced a first-party charging cradle for Joy-**** controllers, which up until now have been charged by slotting them into the console itself, via Nintendo's sold-separately Joy-**** charging grip, or with third-party charging accessories. The Nintendo of Europe account on X, formerly Twitter, announced that the charging accessory—formally called the "Joy-**** Charging Stand (Two-Way)"—will be released on October 17th. It will work with both Joy-***** and the Switch Online wireless NES controllers, and the charging cradle can be separated from its stand (where it looks a lot like the Joy-**** charging grip but without the grip part). Power is provided via a USB-C port on top of the stand, which can either be connected to one of the Switch dock's USB ports or to a separate USB-C charger. Other Switch controllers, including the Pro Controller and the SNES and N64 replica controllers, are charged via USB-C directly. Read 7 remaining paragraphs | Comments View the full article

Team Deathmatch just got a whole lot *******. Apex Legends‘ new Void Reckoning event is turning TDM up a notch with an LTM that doubles the size of the game’s existing TDM mode, making for some good, old-fashioned chaos. Big TDM will feature teams of 12 as opposed to teams of six players each. The new and ******* version will also increase the winning team’s score limit to 60, and the Apex blog also mentions the new LTM will have “improved health regeneration.” That’s good news for players who want to ****** early and often, as improved health regen will hopefully mean people have an easier time resetting after taking a solo ****** with an ******, and teams won’t have to ***** instant, third-party deathball strategies from their opposition.
