This is episode number ninety five of the Vainglory podcast, Shatter The Vain. I’m Brad Chmielewski and this is a podcast all about the MOBA Vainglory created by Super Evil Megacorp. In this episode we’re stepping away from the normal focus to hear from Hammers eSports. Taking time away from playing and running the organization in order to chat with me is SuiJeneris and R4GE. R4GE was on episode 55 a few months ago but a lot has changed and it’s always great to get an update on what’s been happening. The three of us also dive into the recent Spring VGL win for  Hammers Kinetic. Closing things out the guys share a little bit of the future plans for Hammers eSports. All that and more on episode ninety five of Shatter The Vain. Thanks for listening! I hope you enjoy the episode and until next time. Having issues listening to the audio?

This is episode number ninety four of the Vainglory podcast, Shatter The Vain. I’m Brad Chmielewski and this is a podcast all about the MOBA Vainglory created by Super Evil Megacorp. There has been a ton of news coming out this past week from Super Evil Megacorp about Vainglory which makes for a lot to talk about on this episode. Joining me to talk about Pax East, Phinn skins, Killer Bunny Rona and the VIPL season 3, I have DJSamz. DJSamz streams Vainglory regularly on Twitch and I’d highly recommend going and checking out his stream and playing a few games with him. The two of us also chat about the Facebook Live Stream that Zekent and SurpriseBirthday did which touched on the future of roam heroes. These changes that should be coming down the pipeline in the next couple updates are making it sound like an entire new game. All that and more on episode ninety four of Shatter The Vain.

This is episode number ninety three of the Vainglory podcast, Shatter The Vain. I’m Brad Chmielewski and this is a podcast all about the MOBA Vainglory created by Super Evil Megacorp. This past week we saw a few issues pop up within Vainglory and as a result Super Evil Megacorp released a hot fix that removed draft mode for anyone below hotness. This caused some backlash within the community as we see Super Evil Megacorp moving faster then maybe the community is ready for. As PAX East approaches we’re starting to get some teases for update 1.17 that should be released within the next few weeks, so get ready. Joining me to chat about these issues and changes are Nicky Tsunami and MaveryK from Ardent. Nicky Tsunami and MaveryK also share a little insight into the business world of running a guild and an esports organization. All that and more on episode ninety three of Shatter The Vain.

This is episode number ninety two of the Vainglory podcast, Shatter The Vain. I’m Brad Chmielewski and this is a podcast all about the MOBA Vainglory created by Super Evil Megacorp. VGL started back this weekend and that means my Saturdays and Sundays are filled with tons of eSports action. Also this week we got some teases on Lance, the new roam hero headed to the Halcyon Fold and a couple details about update 1.17. I have a feeling we’ll be seeing a lot more about update 1.17 over the next couple weeks as PAX East gets closer. This past week we also saw Noble Pro Gaming acquire one of the oldest North American guilds; Wicked. Joining me to talk about this transition and what it means for him and Vainglory is the guild leader, SixesNSevens. Thanks for listening! I hope you enjoy the episode and until next time.

This is episode number ninety one of the Vainglory podcast, Shatter The Vain. I’m Brad Chmielewski and this is a podcast all about the MOBA Vainglory created by Super Evil Megacorp. We’re going back to the roots of the podcast here in episode ninety one, most of the 45 minute episode will just be me giving you a rundown of the Vainglory news and a review of the Nvidia Shield that I picked up about a month ago. Towards the end of the episode I have a short interview with Kraken where we talk about the new player experience that is a part of update 1.16.   It was a busy week with the release of two episodes and a special interview with GankStars & Nemesis for their Unity eSports April Fools pranks. Because of this I wasn’t sure when I’d get a chance to record this episode and that’s why there isn’t anyone going over everything that has been happening in and around the Halcyon Fold. I already have a couple people scheduled for the next episode but it was nice to just gush myself about this game for a change. Thanks for listening! I hope you enjoy the episode and until next time.

Winter is no longer coming… As March comes to a close so does the Vainglory Winter season. With it comes the release of update 1.16 and the start of the Spring season. Update 1.16 is a massive update with a ton of balance changes for all your favorite Vainglory heroes. With this update we’re getting the Spring seasonal map, a new hero, a new game mode and three skins for our favorite wolf, Pickles. Joining me for this rundown of update 1.16 is SIX1SE7EN member of The Fold Guild. First the two of us chat about the new game mode Battle Royale and how it’s where people will be spending a lot of their time over the next few months. Then we rundown all the balance changes on the different heroes and try to decide who might be coming out on top this update. Like with any patch, it’s going to take awhile to get used to some of these changes. If there is anything that we missed, I’ll report back on a future episode.

The EU Winter Championships just wrapped up and a big congrats to all the teams that played! If you haven’t watched be sure you do because it’s going to be spoiled here on the podcast. It’s always great to see some of the best players in the world duking it out on the Halcyon Fold. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to attend the event but I was able to grab Billy Gei to give me the lowdown on what happened and what it was like hanging out with the amazing Vainglory community. The two of us also chat about shout casting and if the Vainglory players might be on a bit of an eSports overload at the moment. This is a bit of a shorter episode this week but there was episode eighty seven that was released on Friday with MadeMoiselle where we talked about the Femme Fatale Tournament coming up on March 25th - 27th.

This is episode number eighty seven of the Vainglory podcast, Shatter The Vain. I’m Brad Chmielewski and this is a podcast all about the MOBA Vainglory created by Super Evil Megacorp. Every weekend it seems like there is a new Vainglory tournament happening. Coming off the heels of the North American Winter Championships is the EU Winter Championships in London. Most of the Super Evil Megacorp jumped on planes and headed out there right after the North American event. I’m looking forward to the games. I don’t know the players as well as I do the North American players but I love watching the games and seeing how the meta changes from region to region. To help me breakdown the EU players and maybe pick a winner I have MadeMoiselle joining me. MadeMoiselle also has the second Femme Fatale Tournament coming up on March 25th - 27th. So just after the EU Winter Championships the following weekend is some more Vainglory action. All that and more on episode eighty seven of Shatter The Vain.

This is episode number eighty six of the Vainglory podcast, Shatter The Vain. I’m Brad Chmielewski and this is a podcast all about the MOBA Vainglory created by Super Evil Megacorp. This past weekend was the North American Winter Championships in Santa Monica. I had the opportunity to make it out for the event and it was really awesome to meet all the different players and people in the community. For this episode I grabbed a few people for an interview. You’ll hear; MonsterDFace, Odds, Godseye, Nivmett & Ownes. Sadly, Nivmett’s video didn’t record so if you’re watching this episode on YouTube you’ll have to check out the audio version. If you haven’t watched the North American Winter Championships yet then I suggest watching that before checking out this episode because we spoil the results.
