3. Jungler Build

Unleash explosive damage with this awesome Alpha jungle build. An Alpha jungler shines during the early to mid stages of the game where he collects pick offs from the enemy team that ultimately snowballs his team to victory. With this build, Alpha can be as aggressive as he wants early on by relying on his kit for damage and his skills will be his sole weapon for sustainability. By utilizing a kit focusing on improving his spell vamp, Alpha enjoys increased damage and an insane HP regeneration from his combo of skills!

Utilize this build early on by being aggressive and getting your objectives before the enemy team does.

Use this build if:

You are the designated jungler
You want to have high damage right from the start
Want to carry your team

This build is perfect against a squishy enemy team since Alpha can take the heroes down when he has the buff. Use against Miya, Layla, Vale, and other marksmen.

Emblem that will work best with this build: Assassin Emblem or Jungle Emblem will heighten the abilities of this kit. Try to choose a more suitable emblem based on your playstyle, but an Assassin emblem with high Physical Attack will do you good during a fight.

Choose your skill as follows:

Level 1 : Skill 1 - Rotary Impact: AoE | Slow

Level 2: Skill 2 - Force Swing: AoE | Heal

Level 4: Skill 3 - Alha, Charge!: Blink | CC

Passive: Beta, Advance! | Damage and Slow

Prioritize upgrading the first skill in this build as it has the lowest CD among his skills and it dishes out a decent damage. As the jungler, try to scoop up as much enemies with your skill 3 when you engage to maximize your skills.

Items:

1. Tough boots (700): +22 Magic DEF and +40 Movement speed. Passive lessens user control time by 30%. Can be exchanged with Warrior Boots (720) for Phys DEF.

2. Bloodlust Axe (1970): Provides spellvamp, increases Alpha’s durability

3. War Axe (2100): Provides Phys damage and cooldown reduction. Has a stackable Phys Damage and Phys PEN.

4. Hunter Strike (2010) - gives hero a short 50% speed boost perfect for chasing and an attack speed increase

5. Blade of Despair (3010) - highest damage giving item. Adds 160 Phys Attack and additional 25% damage to low HP enemies

6. Immortality (2120): on spot revival. Revives the hero when killed on top of its additional HP and Physical DEF.

7. (Extra option) Athena’s Shield (2150): Resist burst damage. Perfect against burst type enemy mages like Eudora. User gains 25% magic damage reduction

8. (Extra Option) Antique Cuirass (2170): Gives high HP and Physical DEF. Provides a bit of HP regen. Passive allows stackable increased Phys DEF.

2. Laner Build

EEXP Laner Alpha Items

In a conventional draft where Alpha serves as an EXP laner, it is perfect to have a balance between damage and defense items. This will ensure that your Alpha can dominate his lane but also have survivability incase of surprise attacks. Especially when he is the target of ganking. Start with high damage items and equip Hunter Strike to mitigate the effects of Alpha’s low pace mobility.

A balanced kit works wonders because it allows Alpha to adjust his playstyle depending on the situation, the item build provides items for aggressive offense but can also keep up with a defensive playstyle. This build is ultimately useful for clashes wherein Alpha initiates with his ultimate setup and rolls back out before he gets taken down. Immortality contributes massively to his sustainability with this build.

Use this build if:

You are an EXP laner
Have on par power with your lane rival
Want a balanced hero
You will take on a versatile role of initiating and dealing final blows
Have no visits from your jungler.

Try this build against heroes like Uranus, Dyrroth, and Sun. Try to out damage them but make sure to get enough DEF items when the skirmishes don’t fall into your favor.

Emblem that will work best with this build: Fighter Emblem with Festival of Blood that increases Alpha’s Spell Vamp. A crucial stat for his gameplay. The points for Physical Attack and Attack speed will significantly increase your DPS.

Choose your skill as follows:

Level 1 : Skill 1 - Rotary Impact: AoE | Slow

Level 2: Skill 2 - Force Swing: AoE | Heal

Level 4: Skill 3 - Alha, Charge!: Blink | CC

Passive: Beta, Advance! | Damage and Slow

Prioritize his skill 1 and skill 2 for both damage and heals. Utilize his skill 3 for clashes since you can take multiple enemies and give your team a solid set. Since Alpha is not an overpowered hero, you need to rely on timing and item builds.

Items:

1. Tough boots (700): +22 Magic DEF and +40 Movement speed. Passive lessens user control time by 30%. Can be exchanged with Warrior Boots (720) for Phys DEF.

2. Hunter Strike (2010) - gives hero a short 50% speed boost perfect for chasing and an attack speed increase

3. Blade of Despair (3010) - highest damage giving item. Adds 160 Phys Attack and additional 25% damage to low HP enemies

4. Bloodlust Axe (1970): Provides spellvamp, increases Alpha’s durability

5. War Axe (2100): Provides Phys damage and cooldown reduction. Has a stackable Phys Damage and Phys PEN.

6. Immortality (2120): on spot revival. Revives the hero when killed on top of its additional HP and Physical DEF.

7. (Extra option) Blade Armor (1960): deals with the continuous basic attacks from marksmen, returns 20% of the damage back to the damage dealer

8. (Extra option) Radiant Armour (1880): Provides HP regen, Magic DEF, and HP. Has scalable Magic damage reduction. Use against mages with continuous damage.

3. Tank Build

Tank Build Alpha Items | Ultimate Defense Kit

A tanky Alpha that serves as an awesome initiator for team fights or surprise ganks. This is just the build for those who want to play Alpha aggressively but don’t want to be vulnerable from burst attacks. A high HP and high DEF build is perfect for keeping up with the enemy's damage. If you want to play an EXP lane Alpha that is durable or a tank/roamer Alpha, then this is an awesome build that gives spell vamp and the ultimate defensive items.

Since this kit is not offense focused, Instead of taking your enemy on with a head to head damage battle, use this build to stay alive and defend your turret. This build will still give Alpha decent damage as long as you designate a slot or two for damage items.

Use this build if:

You are the designated roamer
Overpowered by enemy fighter
Cannot take the burst damage from enemies
Your team needs a sustain hero
Want a playsafe match

Try this against annoying and durable fighter heroes like Chou, XBorg and even the annoying Zilong.

Emblem that will work best with this build: Tank Emblem with Concussive Blast for extra damage to enemies. Designate points to Vitality for HP and Inspire for the CD reduction.

Choose your skill as follows:

Level 1 : Skill 2 - Force Swing: AoE | Heal

Level 2: Skill 1 - Rotary Impact: AoE | Slow

Level 4: Skill 3 - Alpha, Charge!: Blink | CC

Passive: Beta, Advance! | Damage and Slow

Prioritize his second skill so the heals will keep him durable throughout the match. For a better roaming build, equip Alpha with a Tank Emblem, otherwise a Fighter emblem will suit his kit.

Items:

1. Tough boots (700): +22 Magic DEF and +40 Movement speed. Passive lessens user control time by 30%. Can be exchanged with Warrior Boots (720) for Phys DEF.

2. Bloodlust Axe (1970): Provides spellvamp, increases Alpha’s durability

3. Immortality (2120): on spot revival. Revives the hero when killed on top of its additional HP and Physical DEF.

4. Oracle (2060): Provides HP, Magic Def and CD. The oracles passive is perfect for Alpha’s second skill that heals as the item increases the HP received by 30%

5. Dominance Ice (2010): Reduce enemy heals and regen. Outsustain your rivals by diminishing their regen ability, also adds Mana and physical DEF to the user.

6. Antique Cuirass (2170): Gives high HP and Physical DEF. Provides a bit of HP regen. Passive allows stackable increased Phys DEF.

7. (Extra option) Bruteforce Breastplate (1870): Gives HP, Phys DEF, and cooldown reduction

8. (Extra option) Radiant Armour (1880): Provides HP regen, Magic DEF, and HP. Has scalable Magic damage reduction. Use against mages with continuous damage.

Teammates that will make Alpha awesome:

Since Alpha is a skill reliant hero, he needs the enemies within range while he waits for his skills to reset their cooldown. His 3rd skill or ultimate can do this by setting multiple enemies, but when his ultimate is already used up, a setter in his team may jump in to help Alpha deal the finishing blow. Heroes that can pull enemies together or heroes that provide HP regen are perfect the combos for Alpha:

Atlas
Tigreal
Estes
Floryn
Rafaela
Gatotkaca

Chou

10 X-Men That Deserve to Hit the Big Screen

Blackgate — Wed, 28 Dec 2016 00:32:06 +0000

10 X-Men That Deserve To Hit The Big Screen

Mutants of every shape, size and level of power imaginable have passed through the hallowed halls of Xavier’s Institute. Or tried to burn it to the ground.

We’ve seen over 60 mutants in the X-Men film franchise already.

Who can possibly be left?!

As well as the X-Men themselves, Marvel’s mutants have spun off into an array of splinter groups and comic titles over the years. Standouts include X-Force, a mutant black-ops strike team; X-Factor, a team authorised by the government as opposed to acting outside it; Excalibur and Alpha Flight, the British and Canadian satellite teams respectively; as well as Generation X and the New Mutants, teenage mutants on the rise. This has created a breeding ground of near countless mutants across the globe and throughout time.

‘Logan’ will mark the 10th FOX film with direct or indirect connection to the X-Men mythos, and they’ve covered a fair bit of ground. There’s plenty of untapped potential left though!

10) Magma

Magma can heal knife-wounds by turning her body to fire and cauterizing the gash.

Amara Aquilla a.k.a. ‘Magma’ can produce lava at will, as you would expect.

In a rebooted X-Men, a fling between Amara and Iceman seems obvious, perhaps reworking elements of the Iceman/Rogue flirtation in ‘X-Men’ and ‘X2’ where physical contact proves impossible. Equally, much like Iceman and Pyro in ‘X2’ and ‘X-Men: The Last Stand’, they make easy rivals too, either in respectful competition, or genuine conflict.

What’s more interesting about Amara, is the fact she comes from a secret splinter colony of ancient Romans. Hidden from the world in Brazil, and ruled by a 17,000-year-old mutant sorceress, they have quietly existed since the assassination of Caesar. The Amazon rainforest is a stunning back-drop for any movie, and the sorceress – Selene – with a birthdate way back before anything resembling civilization, could blow the lacklustre Apocalypse’s (of ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’) immortality angle out of the water.

With Chloe Grace Moretz as Magma, and Eva Green as Selene, what I’m calling ‘X-Men: Epoch’ sounds worth watching already, without even factoring in the rest of the squad.

9) Feral & Thornn

They both lost their extraordinary abilities following ‘M-Day’, when Scarlet Witch stripped nearly all mutants of their powers.

Originally part of the sewer-dwelling mutant outfit the Morlocks, feline sister act Feral and Thornn’s appearance is tried and tested in the costume and make-up department.

Known for their interactions with Cable and X-Force; either a bitchy and sarcastic, or savage animalistic adaptation of Feral and Thornn could compliment the permanent, visible mutation of Colossus down the line in the Deadpool franchise, once Cable is involved.

From a darker angle, Feral is alleged to have killed several members of her own family, and both her and Thorn were molested by a coke-addled stepfather, so plenty of bleak material there to use sympathetically, or as origin of criminal psyche. Real-life sisters Kate and Rooney Mara could sharpen their claws here, in characters that would blend easily with Sabretooth, either at his side, or in very claw-oriented combat.

8) Lockheed

Like all good dragons, Lockheed can breathe fire too.

Lockheed is a multi-lingual dimension-travelling alien dragon. That should probably suffice for a movie appearance really.

Most frequently the companion of Kitty ‘Shadowcat’ Pryde, Lockheed seems like an obvious merchandise gravy train. If designed in a Pixar-cute style, Lockheed could serve as an E.T.-esque companion for a young Kitty, or a more pet-like devotee of a grown, no-nonsense Shadowcat.

In a more serious context, Lockheed has been outed as a spy-in-the-camp before, his understanding of various galactic languages kept secret. This makes him versatile as an agent or double agent, as well as serving as translator and encyclopaedia, like a flying, purple Bat-Computer. He’s also been known to associate with our next contender.

7) Magik

Magik can also use telepathic blocks to prevent even Xavier from reading her mind.

Illyana Rasputina, sister of Colossus, has been around since 1975, and as the sibling of an existing character in a recent blockbuster, she’s got a very easy in.

It wasn’t until 1983 that she really took off as ‘Magik’, but traversing dimensions with teleportation discs, and brandishing her Soulsword, Magik is highly powerful, after spending a period in ‘Limbo’. Whether it’s only spoken about in the past tense, or physically visited, perhaps to retrieve Magik, the whole idea of ‘Limbo’ seems like something Deadpool could comfortably scoff at.

A hulking, shiny man being reasonably difficult to age, the casting range for Magik is quite broad, but Mila Kunis’ work on ‘Family Guy’ and ‘Ted’ over the years shows she has the humour to hold her own in a ‘Deadpool’ flick. Plus…it’s Mila Kunis.

6) Mimic

His name appears on a huge list of mutants on Stryker’s screen in ‘X2’.

Around since 1966. The first X-Man to not be a mutant. The first X-Man to join the starting line-up.

One-time Deputy Leader of the X-Men. The ability to absorb, varyingly, the superpowers and/or lives, of those around him.

Live-action appearances: Name listed in obscure Easter-egg

Animated appearances: One, brief.

I guess Mimic’s problem is it’s hard to make any individual character look strong, or special, if there’s a guy that can do it all, and then some, with ease. That’s why a film featuring Calvin ‘Mimic’ Rankin needs to be about Mimic either losing his powers, and the team’s quest to help him regain them. Or – Mimic’s the villain.

One thing the X-Men movies have never really done is pit the entire team against one extremely powerful opponent. Whether it’s the Brotherhood, the Hellfire Club, or Apocalypse’s Horsemen, the X-Men have never really had a Doomsday-type. Apocalypse should have been that, but wasn’t. Mimic could be. I envision a quite regular sized man, stood opposite an army of mutants in a field. Atmospheric music kicks in as blades shoot out of his hands, he grows to the size of Colossus, sprouts angel-wings, turns to ice, then rises in the air like Phoenix, before obliterating the entire battlefield with Cyclops-eye-lasers.

Dave Franco projects the right mix of arrogance and boyish charm to be a determined, vindictive Mimic, while maybe redeeming himself by becoming a member of the Academy once he’s been foiled.

5) Sage

Sage also used the alias Diana Fox while working with the British X-team - Excalibur.

Sage a.k.a. Tessa is a slight point of contention for the die-hard X-Men fanbase. She made her first appearance 17 years after the X-Men were first published but was written in to have been one of the first X-Men, arguably the first. She discovered an injured Professor Xavier in a cave and helped him out, but was sent undercover with the Hellfire Club, and never mentioned to the team.

Whether you like established canon being rewritten or not, this does make for an interesting film plot that could be tied back into the events of ‘X-Men: First Class’ as a co-running plot that was kept hidden at the time.

Angelina Jolie seems like a dream candidate. Someone who can be stealthy and athletic, while coming off mature and discreet, accentuating the decades old, but deadly secret, friendship with Charles.

4) Northstar & Aurora

When joining hands, the pair can produce a blinding light, but they have little control over how strong it is.

This twin brother and sister duo can run, fly, punch and most everything else at extreme speed.

As well as badass powers, Northstar is one of the first openly gay characters in comic history, Aurora has an ongoing dual personality disorder, and they were separated after their parents died in a car crash. These themes were commendably approached back in 1979 when the pair made their debut in the inaugural ‘Alpha Flight’. It makes for even more diverse and emotionally interesting characters today.

While FOX have joint ownership of Magneto’s offspring, a film setting these two against Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch could be a moving, and multi-layered piece of filmmaking, with some chaotic destruction and magic too. Particularly if the car accident that killed Northstar and Aurora’s parents was caused by Magneto. Add a degree of empathy between the two sets of siblings, with Magneto forcing Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch into the attack, and things could get interesting.

Josh Hutcherson (‘The Hunger Games’) and Abigail Breslin (‘Scream Queens’) spring to mind.

3) Vulcan

Vulcan is one of only eleven ‘Omega-level’ mutants, a group including Jean ‘Phoenix’ Grey. However, he has been described as beyond that level.

Gabriel Summers, younger brother of Cyclops and Havok, is sure to hit the screen sometime.

Only emerging in 2006, the youngest of the Summers boys has an axe to grind. Literally cut from his mother’s womb by an intergalactic majestor, Vulcan was aged artificially and sent back to Earth to toil as a slave. Eventually discovering the truth of his origins, he waged an interstellar war of vengeance.

He can control and produce most forms of energy, direct them, and manipulate them. This makes him an ideal foil for a united Cyclops and Havok, rendering their beams of energy useless. ‘X-Men Origins: Cyclops and Havok’ quickly followed by ‘X-Men Origins: Vulcan’ could breathe some life back into the whole concept.

Jesse Eisenberg could do DC/Marvel double-duty for this unwilfully estranged sibling.

2) Forge

Forge turned down a job with S.H.I.E.L.D. to continue serving in the Vietnam war.

The mechanical super-genius Forge has had romances with both Storm and Mystique.

First rearing his oily head in 1984, Forge has a mutation that makes visualizing mechanical workings, and applying it to engineering and machinery, a cake-walk. As well as this handy ability, he happens to be a Cheyenne mystic, and ‘Nam veteran, who while on tour, summoned the souls of his slaughtered comrades to avenge their own deaths. It also brought a demon to Earth. So, the grizzled veteran atoning for a traumatic past bit is all there. Can see him saving a younger mutant’s life at the climax of a film, absolving himself in death.

This has Danny Trejo written all over, though Wes Studi could be great, and has actual Native American descent.

10 Superhero Movies You Must Watch!

1) Polaris/Magnetrix

Polaris was given her name by Erik the Red, the same Shi’Ar alien who enslaved Vulcan.

First appearing in 1968, if anyone can stop Magneto, his daughter can.

Lorna Dane was the daughter of Magneto by an affair with a spoken-for lady, before he ever met the mother of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. Her parentage has been confirmed, unconfirmed and reconfirmed over the years, but as it stands, it’s official, she’s Erik’s. Her powers are magnet-based as well, potentially making for some great scenes of throwing aircraft and the like at each other.

In the Northstar/Aurora vs. Scarlet Witch/Quicksilver idea I discussed earlier, Polaris would make an ideal secret weapon against Magneto’s puppet-mastery at the last minute.

Cate Blanchett’s portrayal of Galadriel in ‘The Lord of the Rings’, particularly when confronted with the One Ring, could transfer easily to this role.
