Riot’s New Game ‘Legends of Runeterra’ Launched on PC, Android and iOS

Riot Games’ digital collectible card game, ‘Legends of Runterra‘, is finally out of beta. Set in the world of ‘League of Legends’ (LoL), Runeterra is a strategy card game where players will have to use their skill and creativity to succeed. As is to be expected, the game includes some of the hottest characters from LoL, like Yasuo, Jinx, Ashe, Garen, Teemo, Darius and Zed.

The game, which might remind many of Blizzard’s Hearthstone, requires players to bring a deck of 40 pre-selected cards into a match to face off against an opponent. They’ll then need to choose their preferred champions and combine their cards from different regions to build the perfect deck. To win, a player will need to reduce the health of their opponent’s Nexus from 20 down to zero.

As part of the official launch, Riot also released the game’s first expansion called ‘Rising Tides’ that adds Bilgewater – a new region where pirates plunder with impunity and sea monsters devour entire ships in the blink of an eye. Rising Tides also adds over 120 new cards and 11 champions from the League of Legends universe, including Miss Fortune, Fizz, and Gangplank, among others.

Available for free on Windows, Android and iOS, the game will support cross-play between different platforms. While a Riot account will not be required to play Runterra on mobile, it is a pre-requisite for cross-platform play and sharing account progress between PC and mobile. You can download the game on your PC by the visiting the official Legends of Runterra website, and on your mobile from the Play Store or the App Store.

Twitter Wants to Build an ‘Open and Decentralized’ Social Media Platform

In an attempt to create a Facebook competitor, which everyone flocks to, Twitter became increasingly centralized over the years. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey believes that’s the case and has now tweeted a lengthy plan to fund research to build an open and decentralized standard for social media platforms. It will “ultimately become a standard” that Twitter’s client will be based upon. Dubbed Bluesky, this project will see a team of up to five researchers , which could include open-source architects, engineers, and designers, being on-boarded in the near future. Currently, Bluesky has no team members but Dorsey tweeted that Twitter’s CTO Parag Agrawal has been tasked with finding a lead. The folks over at Firefox have already extended a helping hand, saying how the non-profit has contributed to decentralization. Enough jibber-jabber, but what exactly is Bluesky? And what does it intend to achieve? Dorsey, in his tweetstorm , states that the challenges being faced by centralized social

Mysterious Drones Spotted in Colorado and Nebraska; Sources Unknown

They appear at around 7 PM at night and disappear at around 10 PM . Until now, the drones have not been caught doing any illegal or unofficial activities. “They do not seem to be malicious. They don’t seem to be doing anything that would indicate criminal activity,” Sheriff Elliott added. The Federal Aviation Agency, the Air Force, Drug Enforcement Administration, and US Army Forces Command confirmed that the drones did not belong to them.
