First up is the addition of the Articles tab. While Surrender at 20 is known for content like PBE news and red post collections, and more, we are interested in growing and producing more top of the line content for our fine community. This new Articles tab will help us accomplish that by providing access point for "non news" articles such as theorycraft, champion reviews, interviews, guest write ups, and any other type of original content you could imagine!
Of course we wouldn't want to launch such a feature without any punch behind it, so allow me to introduce Sr Grimm and Dr. Franks PARADIGM SHIFT
Paradigm Shift is the newest project here at Surrender at 20! It's a collaboration between S@20 and two rapscallions by the names of Sr. Grimm and Dr. Frank!
Before I get too far ahead of myself, I present you with two introductions from the dynamic duo themselves!
"Good day fellow humans! **BEEP** Allow me to introduce myself as Dr. Frank “The Cyborg Doctor”. I'm not a real doctor, yet, I'm a second year Medicine Student obsessed with designing as a hobby and playing LoL as more than just that. **BEEP** Outstanding blabbering and a special and warm hate for numbers. I'd love to share "The Great Atlas" - my extensive collection of collaborated briefs on each champion, with you!"
"Good day, fellas! Allow me to introduce myself as Sr. Grimm “The Mad Gentleman”. I am a second semester engineering student which means I'm good with numbers bad with words (bwahahaha). My articles section called “Moments of Strangedosity” is full of numerical madness and good tips for you! Go check it out!"Now I know you must be thinking "Great Atlas? Moments of Strangedosity? What ever could those be!?". Allow me to introduce each of these fantastic new pieces of content!
The Great Atlas
The Great Atlas is a codex that will provide you guys with easily digestable and quality reference cards for each and every champion! Each card will highlight a champions strengths, weaknesses, a recommended build, common counter champions & items, as well as advanced tips for those who require further knowledge!Here is an example card featuring Teemo:
While not every card will be available right away, we are dedicated to rolling them out as quickly as possible and keeping everything up to date! Check it out for yourself by clicking here.
Moments of Strangedosity
Sr Grimm's Moments of Strangedosity are a series of theorycrafting and speculative articles aimed at informing Summoners on things ranging from the value and potential of build options to guides and commentary on how to step up your League of Legends game!The first of these articles centers around the question of "Is Muramana or Seraph's Embrace a better option for Ryze?". Using mathematics and theory, it examines how much more damage a Ryze with Muramana can produce compared to one who has chosen to purchase a Seraph's Embrace.
This is only the first of many articles and I hope you enjoy it! As always, we're open to feedback and suggestions so don't hesitate to leave your thoughts in a comment down below!

ReplyDeletefrosty help... is sr senor like the spanish saying or what
ReplyDeleteor is it senior like hes old
Not true! Someone on twitter said it was annoying :D
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy it as much as I do!!!
ReplyDeleteQ 1: Teemo or not Teemo?
ReplyDeleteI have Surrender @ 20 always open, and just refreshing the page doesn't bring up the landing page, so I missed it till I saw it mentioned in the article :( Looks good though.
ReplyDeletewow.. awesome... <3
ReplyDeleteWow I was right haha.
ReplyDeleteI really Like It, for real, It looks Like a really nice Comic with a lot of Info right there!!! and nice doodles
ReplyDeleteDon't be sad! I thought it was amazing, I was expecting the same home page and was pleasantly shocked when the new one came up x3
ReplyDeleteThat is the question.
ReplyDeleteYou might wanna add the "Staff" tag to these fellas profiles. Because there is at least 2 other Rammus' and even I can't tell them apart from me. Last thing we want is some random guy posing as these fine gentlemen and trolling people in comments section.
ReplyDeleteThis is a rather long comment from a Rammus, so I'll just wrap it up with the usual;
Ok.
Ha , i was right.
ReplyDeleteThose cards.
ReplyDeleteThose beautiful, beautiful cards.
Outrageous!
ReplyDeleteForever alone, Frosty.
ReplyDeleteForever alone.
I almost died laughing. Best.
ReplyDeleteQuestion, not specifically toward you but toward the whole staff (I just know you reply often): Why not call the new tab "Editorials" instead of "Articles"? I guess to me an 'article' can represent anything on a news site; unspecific, just another term for "page with news!". However, an 'editorial' has more of a personal vibe, specific to topics chosen by the editor, which seems to be the goal with this new segment, no?
ReplyDeleteJust a thought :) Cheers.
Frosty. You're my favorite penguin...
ReplyDeleteAfter Roberto, roberto is totally my favorite penguin...
HEY YOU, we haven't met YET. I'm planning on doing Lux, and someone told me you could help with the tips...
ReplyDelete"Seranaya says" sounds pretty awesome IMO
If you do so, take a picture, so I can copy them, and tape them to my wall! Its a wall made of pictures of a wall made of pictures of a picture. BEEP BOOP BEEP <3
ReplyDeleteIt's my first time to know that Jax's Counter Strike can dodge Warwick's ulti. Thanks for the good trivia. Hoping to find more! Cheers for the nice job. :)
ReplyDeletethe thought was that article implies it's not news since that is what everything else on the site is.
ReplyDeletewe hope to have all sorts of content from guest columns, interviews, different community interactions, and we just hit a bump trying to find a good umbrella word. Crunched to get everything out we settled with the bland ole article.
personally, I always click the logo to go back and it shoots me there every time ._.
ReplyDeleteThis, imho is one of the worst ways to build Teemo and i find it quite racist...
ReplyDeletelol a day ago someone said that this site could be about guides to campions builds and how to counter some champions, he was right. I salute him
ReplyDeleteFair enough!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great idea!sounds amazing =]
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! This sh*t makes me even more addicted to S@20! :D
ReplyDeleteI remember when this was a fan blog and now it's an hyper website ^^
Gotta say, awesome idea :D
ReplyDeleteAnd awesome landing page btw (don't be sad frosty, ninjas show no emotion :D)
I'm glad my guess was pretty damn close.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm easy to manufacture.. There's a factory on piltover...
ReplyDeleteYo dawg...
ReplyDeleteWell then maybe you should call some of your brothers to help. It would make your job much easier. And since you all are basically the same person(or robot)(aoutomaton maybe?), you can still take the full credit.
ReplyDeleteNot quite, I said I was easy to manufacture, but I was also the only brain available for testing.
ReplyDeleteSo it is possible to manufacture more of you, but others will be more like brainless machines with no personality. Which brings us back to my original post.
ReplyDelete(The irony when this comes from a guy calling himself Rammus.)
