Vainglory gets new update, hero lance and more…

Super Evil Megacorp’s Vainglory update 1.18 is now live and here is what to expect:

Roam Hero, Lance: With his unique polearm-and-shield combat style, Lance breaks enemy lines and creates opportunities for allies. He builds crystal or utility items to excel in his role as a protector but can also build weapon items to deal more damage during battle.

Updated Skins: The Supersonic Skye tier I & II skins are available now with tier III coming on June 17. Also, keep an eye out for a new tier 3 Celeste skin and tier 1 Blackfeather skin available in the coming weeks.

New Quests and Chests: New and rewarding quests have been added to Vainglory, including special in-game challenges. Long time players will be especially happy to see account levels have been expanded for the first time since launch so players can now reach up to level 30 with chest rewards for every level achieved.

The Vainglory Spring Season Championships: The esports championships kick off June 3 in Hollywood and June 10 in Berlin. Check out the action live by purchasing tickets to for the North American Championship here or the European Championship here. Fans can also tune into twitch.tv/vaingloryleague starting on those dates to see what it takes to be Vainglory Champions.
