Change can be hard, especially when you don't know why it's happening.

A ton of changes have happened and still are coming to League of Legends before the 2017 season kicks off, and game design lead Greg Street broke them all down for Mashable — from the competitive implications of new jungle plants to the reasons behind the return of solo queue.

Game-changing plants

The biggest update coming to League of Legends is the interactive plants. Plants — revealed in October — are randomly spawning flora that do things like heal champions, give vision and blast players over walls when hit. Read more...

Serena Williams pens letter on sexism and perseverance

When one of the greatest athletes in the world has something to say, it's wise to tune in. 

In a letter for Porter Magazine’s "Incredible Women of 2016" issue, tennis powerhouse Serena Williams addresses "all incredible women who strive for excellence" with a message of perseverance despite the barriers (including sexism) they continue to face. 

Williams details the opportunities she had as a child to pursue her dreams, acknowledging that not everyone had similar support and how she wants that playing field to even.  

"For me, it was a question of resilience. What others marked as flaws or disadvantages about myself — my race, my gender — I embraced as fuel for my success," she writes before launching into her frustrations about equal pay for equal work.  Read more...

Reddit's Trump trolls are freaking out—and they're right

Trump trolls on Reddit want the site's CEO to quit over his response to a bizarre sex scandal called #Pizzagate. Crazily enough, they might be right.

If you haven't heard, #Pizzagate is the hashtag used by trolls spreading the unhinged, bogus claim that Hillary Clinton was involved in a child sex ring running out of a Washington, D.C. pizza parlor. Several employees of that pizza parlor received death threats as a result. It's exactly the sort of steaming pile of trash that Reddit's uniquely positioned to cultivate—it's just surprising it took so long to get here. Read more...

Watch Miley Cyrus, Dolly Parton and Pentatonix take on 'Jolene'

Miley Cyrus has already delivered a soulful cover of (her godmother) Dolly Parton's classic song "Jolene." But add Parton herself into the mix and you've truly got a rendition to be reckoned with.

Backed by an extremely chipper Pentatonix, the two vocalists absolutely crushed the wistful tune on Tuesday night's episode of The Voice. 

PSA: Their harmonies are sure to make even the most innocent Jolenes quake in fear, so please do not show your friend Jolene this video.

Throughout Hillary Clinton's historic presidential campaign, Katy Perry was there rallying for her. Now, Clinton is returning the favor. 

At the UNICEF Snowflake gala at Cipriani Wall Street last night, Clinton made an impromptu appearance to introduce Perry, who was being honored with the Audrey Hepburn Humanitarian Award.

“I have seen Katy's commitment to the causes she believes in firsthand,” Clinton said in her speech. “I've gotten to spend time with her and I know how deeply she cares about making our world a better place. She is serious about understanding the complex problems we face and pulling people together to solve them. We need champions like Katy now more than ever: her passion, her energy and, yes, her voice, louder than a lion.” Read more...

Cartoon honors the Brazilian soccer players who died in plane crash

The Chapecoense soccer club has paid a moving Facebook tribute to victims of a plane crash near Medellin, Colombia that killed most of its players.

Only six of the 77 people on board the charted aircraft survived, three of them soccer players. 

The Brazilian team was flying to Colombia for one of the biggest matches in its history, the final of the Copa Sudamericana. 

Coming from a small city of less than 200,000 inhabitants, Chapecoense had become an unlikely success story in Brazilian football, rising from the 4th division to Brazil's Serie A in 2014. 

An illustration posted by the Chapecoense club on its official Facebook page shows the players lined up in heaven as God hands each of them a halo.  Read more...

'The Crown' is a low-key guide to outfoxing the men in your way

Https%3a%2f%2fblueprint-api-production.s3.amazonaws.com%2fuploads%2fcard%2fimage%2f301517%2fscreen_shot_2016-11-30_at_13.01.30

LONDON — It's easy to dismiss Netflix's new series The Crown as just another period drama to fill the gaping hole left behind by Downton Abbey. But, look beyond the opulent costumes and posh accents and you'll see another story — one about the triumph of female strength in a world powered by men. 

On 6 February 1952, a 25-year-old woman became queen of a realm ruled by men. That woman was Queen Elizabeth II. And that day heralded the beginning of a new Elizabethan age

The grieving daughter of a beloved king had just inherited a post that hadn't been occupied by a woman for just over half a century. And, world leadership was no less patriarchal than it had been when the last female monarch, Queen Victoria, died in 1901

While many might see a woman thrust into the apex of power by a position gained through heredity — and not via a democratic process — as the antithesis of a feminist icon, The Crown Read more...

LONDON — Adele fans in the UK were delighted by news that the British singer will perform two surprise summer shows at Wembley Stadium.

They were less delighted by the ensuing anxiety in attempting to acquire tickets to said performances. 

Adding to the tension, this could be the last opportunity to see Adele perform for several years. As her worldwide Adele Live 2016 tour winds down, the singer has expressed an interest in growing her family.

So the stakes are high and the struggle is real.
