The start of the FIFA 23 Web App is known. We show you all the info about the release of the FIFA 23 Web App and the Companion App for iOS and Android.
What is the FIFA 23 Web App? The Web App has been a fixed tool for years, allowing players to build their Ultimate Team. It is a browser app where you can’t play matches in FIFA, but you can create teams, solve SBCs, or sign new players.
FIFA 23 Web App: When does it start?
FIFA 23 Web App release date: The official start date for the FUT 23 Web App is September 21, 2022.
In addition, the FUT 22 Web App will be deactivated on September 16. From this date, you will no longer be able to access your FIFA 22 Ultimate Team on your computer.
What time does it start? There is not yet an exact start time for the Web App, but releases in previous years indicate an evening start. A start around 7:00 PM or 8:00 PM is possible.
Update, 20.09.2022: Information about the possible release time has been added. We will track the start of the FIFA 23 Web App on Wednesday here with current info. The article also includes tips for logging into the Web App, should there be any issues.
Update, 16.09.2022: The article was originally published on 06.09.2022. The specific release date has now been confirmed by Community Manager “EA_rephii” in the FIFA Forum at EA Sports. We have updated this article with current information.
Start of the FIFA 23 Companion App: The Companion App launches on September 22. The “Companion” refers to the app version for iOS and Android. It corresponds largely to the Web App from the browser but runs as its own app on the smartphone. It can also be used to build your team before the FIFA 23 release. Learn more about the FIFA 23 release here.
FIFA 23 Web App: Login – Who can access?
How does the FIFA 23 Web App login work before release? The “Web App” login before the FIFA 23 release is only available for returning players who already had an account in FUT 22. Additionally, the account must be in good standing.
FIFA 23 Web App: Is a download needed?
Is there a FIFA 23 Web App download? You do not need to download the Web App. It can simply be accessed in the browser once it is available.
It’s different with the FIFA 23 Companion App. A download is necessary here. If you already have the app, you can update it on September 22.
Content and Benefits of the FIFA 23 Web App
This is what the FIFA 23 Web App brings: Both apps can be used to manage your Ultimate Team.
With the FIFA 23 Web App, you can access the transfer market as soon as it is available
Basically, the FIFA 23 Web App gives you the opportunity to work on your team even before the complete game is released. But especially after the release, it is practical for handling the “side tasks” of FUT like trading, lineup, squad building challenges, and collecting rewards when you’re not sitting in front of the big screen.
This year, new features may be added, as there are generally some changes in Ultimate Team. As soon as more is known here, we will keep you updated.

Role players get a little highlight in World of Warcraft. They receive a place that is perfect for their favorite content.
Role players are a peculiar bunch in all MMORPGs. For their passion, they often need neither tough endgame content nor a good balance of character classes or constantly new content. Instead, RPers prefer a lot of cool transmog and beautiful places to engage in roleplay.
Whether it’s a large arena, a beautiful clearing in the woods, or a vast battlefield. The main thing is that there are no annoying mobs around, allowing for long emotes. A small wish is fulfilled for the role players with Dragonflight – as they finally get a tavern that has no annoying NPCs.
What are role players complaining about? Role players have longed for a housing feature for nearly two decades but have come to terms over the years to rely on other places in the game. Particularly inns and taverns are often used as “RP-hubs”, meeting points for role play. However, these inns are often filled with NPCs, so tables are occupied, leaving little room for RPers to express themselves freely. Truly empty spaces are a rarity – and that’s exactly where Dragonflight aims to help at least a bit.
You can watch the cinematic for Dragonflight here:

WoW: Here is the spectacular cinematic for the new expansion Dragonflight
What’s in Dragonflight? As Twitter user Portergauge discovered in the beta of Dragonflight, there is a very special inn on the Dragon Isles called “Fallingwater Overlook.” To most players, this tavern is just a bar, like there are hundreds in WoW. But role players may have a special interest here because normally the bar is full of NPCs, but there is an option to nearly completely disable them to create an empty space for role play.

How does it work? Comparatively simple. You just need to buy a ticket from the NPC “Cadestrasz,” which allows you to use the “Fallingwater Overlook” for two hours. You will then be placed in a version of this location where no NPCs get in your way, making it primarily usable for role players – but normal guilds looking to hold a cozy guild meeting somewhere can also benefit from it.
Has there been something like this before? In a way, yes. In the Ardenweald of Shadowlands, there was a similar feature at the theater stage northwest of the Heart of the Forest. Even there, interested players could buy a “private ticket” to switch to an alternative version of the stage where there were no NPCs.
Although many liked the option, the location was only moderately used – mainly because most role players play living characters who are not the chosen “Maw Walkers” and therefore have no place in Ardenweald. The pure optics of the area also make it difficult to have the stage play out historically at another location.
Nevertheless, it is nice to see that Blizzard apparently wants to expand this feature to more places. As long as there is no housing, it is definitely nice to offer role players additional options. More of this, please.
What do you think about this? A cool idea to provide role players with more opportunities? Or unnecessary fluff that nobody uses anyway?
At just 16 years old, Fibi “Fibii” Pfeifer is already one of the most successful personalities in German Twitch. She particularly enjoys showcasing the tactical shooter Valorant. We at MeinMMO introduce you to the streamer.
Fibii is part of a new generation of Twitch streamers. But who were actually the very first ones to succeed with streaming?
Start video
Twitch: Who were actually the first successful streamers?
Who is Fibii? Fibii is a German Twitch streamer from Saxony. Her real name is Fibi Pfeifer, online she usually appears as xFibii or Wave Fibii.
How old is Fibii? Fibii was born on 05.01.2006 and is currently 16 years old.
What has Fibii already achieved: The streamer has nearly 350,000 followers on Twitch. In the last 30 days, an average of nearly 3,500 people watched her. This makes her one of the most-watched German streamers on Twitch (via sullygnome).
After Reved and Lola, Fibii is in 3rd place of the currently most-watched streamers on German Twitch
In August 2022, Fibii was even among the most-watched streamers worldwide, ranking 7th ahead of the largest German streamer Antonia “Reved” Staab.

Fibii is therefore one of the big winners on Twitch this year. Comparing numbers from the last 180 days, Fibii ranks 4th among the fastest-growing German-speaking channels. She appears alongside well-known figures like MontanaBlack and Trymacs.
As the only female person in the top 5, she is also the fastest-growing female streamer on German-speaking Twitch.
The 5 German Twitch channels with the fastest growth
Fibii was signed by the e-sport and lifestyle organization Wave Esports (short: WAVE) as a content creator in May 2021. She is the first female streamer in the ranks of the European organization founded in 2019.
The promotion by WAVE and her appearance in several “Best of” compilations rapidly increased Fibii’s popularity. While she had less than 100 average viewers the previous year, she already recorded an average of 872 viewers in May 2021 (via sullygnome).
The success does not go unnoticed: Fibii also attracted the attention of well-known streamers like MontanaBlack, Trymacs, and Knossi, which brought her additional growth. MontanaBlack especially praised Fibii for her passion, saying she puts a lot of heart into what she does (via YouTube).
In one of the most popular clips on her page, Fibii takes down her fellow streamers:

Where can you watch Fibii? In addition to her Twitch channel, Fibii also runs a YouTube channel. There she mainly posts short vlogs and reaction videos. Past streams are also uploaded on the YouTube channel Fibii Zentrale .
Fibii is also active on other social media. In addition to Twitter and Instagram, Fibii also has a TikTok channel. There she posts short insights from her life and her streams, all sorts of dances, and clips from her streams for her more than 260,000 followers.
As Fibii announced via Twitter on September 16, she has since deinstalled TikTok. The account still exists, but it is unclear if and when new videos will appear there.
What content can you expect from Fibii? While many successful streamers are increasingly active in the categories “Just Chatting” or “Slots”, Fibii impresses with gaming content. She started with Fortnite, but now primarily showcases the tactical shooter Valorant.
In a stream from 22.08.2022 , Fibii reached the “Ascendant” rank, the third-highest rank in Valorant after “Radiant” and “Immortal”. Thus, she belongs to the top 5% of players in the shooter (via esportstales). Fibii has a preference for the duelist Reyna.
When Fibii is not playing Valorant, she spends time with her viewers in “Just Chatting” or holds cooking streams in her first own apartment. She also enjoys casual games like Fall Guys.
During a recent Mario Kart session with MontanaBlack and Trymacs, things got so passionate that Fibii broke her table.

What’s next for Fibii? The 16-year-old is now a full-time streamer and has moved into her first apartment in Erfurt, where she has already set up her new streaming area. So we can definitely look forward to many more streams.
Have you already heard of Fibii or are you hearing about her for the first time? Feel free to leave us a comment with your opinion.
Fibii is already one of the biggest female streamers on German-speaking Twitch. But she is not the only one. More and more female streamers are breaking into the “male club” of Twitch. Here we introduce you to some of the most successful German female streamers:
Grand Theft Auto 6 has already been officially announced by Rockstar. However, the developers have not yet released more information about GTA 6. Due to a massive leak, however, there is now a lot of material from the development on September 18 – around 90 videos have been leaked. MeinMMO summarizes the most important findings.
With GTA 6, the popular action series Grand Theft Auto enters the next round. Information about the title was well protected for a long time; even the official announcement by developer Rockstar came almost as a surprise. Although it was an open secret that work was being done on it.
But now it has happened. A leaker has released an incredible amount of material from the development of GTA 6. The well-connected industry insider Jason Schreier describes the action as the “biggest leak in Rockstar’s history”. In the meantime, Schreier has had the leak confirmed by contacts at Rockstar. (via Twitter)
What important insights about GTA 6 are in the leak and which old information has been confirmed, we will collect for you on MeinMMO.
Note: The material consists of scenes from an early version of the game. Things can change during the development process, and the material should never be made public in this form. So take the information with a grain of skepticism.
If videos or tweets from this article are no longer accessible, they were likely removed by developer Rockstar due to copyright violations.
GTA 6 – The big leak
Where did the leak come from? The files were shared on the “GTAForums” by the user “Teaportuberhacker” (via gtaforums). There is a file with nearly 3.4 GB and about 90 videos, all with short gameplay scenes from development.
Many videos are very short and only show snippets from the development process. The longest video is a 3-minute gameplay scene of a heist with Pulp-Fiction vibes (via youtube.com).
The leaker states that he made good friends with some employees at Rockstar and managed to join a developer group on the chat program Slack. This is where he was able to collect the videos.
What old information has been confirmed?In 2018, a small leak circulated. At that time it was said that GTA 6 would have a female main character and would take place in Vice City, a GTA version of Miami in Florida, USA.
Both have now been confirmed by the leak – the female main character is reportedly named Lucia, and police cars bear the inscription V.C.P.D.: Vice City Police Department.
The character is said to be inspired by “Bonny & Clyde”
The working title of GTA 6 is “Project America”
The map is based on Miami and its surroundings
Details that the new leak does not contain
After release, additional cities are to be added to the game
Many more buildings can be entered
The world is already “currently” large and is supposed to grow further after release
What new information is there? The name of the second main character is Jason. As in GTA 5, you will likely be able to switch characters during the story. One scene suggests, however, that this may not be possible at all times during the game, but only in certain rooms.
Otherwise, many scenes remind of the gameplay experience of GTA 5. They confirm that many features of the predecessor will also be found in GTA 6:
Nightclubs
Subway system
Stunt points
Outfit changes
Heists
Police chases
Cover system
Additionally, a conversation between passersby can be heard, discussing the death of Jay Norris. He was the CEO of the fictional company Life Invader in GTA 5. This would mean that GTA 6 takes place chronologically after GTA 5.
Moreover, “lying down” and “crawling on the ground” could be added as new movement actions, and you can carry bodies.
The downside of the leak is the many scenes of early gameplay. If you want to make your own impression, you can find a video here that shows all scenes in one go – via YouTube.
If more important insights emerge, we will update the article accordingly.
Even if many players are excited about the scenes, it is a heavy blow for the developers behind GTA 6. Leaks can distort the perception of a new game and create false expectations.

The electricity prices in Germany have risen sharply lately. Some passionate gamers may therefore justifiably wonder whether they should forgo screen time to save money. In this article, we will therefore deal with the question of how much electricity the PS5 consumes and what that costs you.
The saying: “Time is money” could hardly be more accurate for gamers at the moment. After all, electricity prices are currently rising sharply due to the energy crisis.
On the one hand, we certainly do not want to miss out on our favorite hobby, but on the other hand, every hour played really adds up more than ever before.
Therefore, in this article, we calculate the power consumption of the highly sought-after PS5 during this weekly gaming time, how it compares to the PS4, and what it is likely to cost at current electricity prices.
How much electricity does the PS5 consume? Basically, it must be said that Sony has succeeded with the PlayStation 5, in direct comparison with the previous console – the PS4 Pro – not only in delivering clearly better performance but also in using energy more efficiently and sparingly.
Nevertheless, the actual consumption strongly depends on what you do with the console.
The PS5 obviously consumes the least electricity when it is turned off: namely 0.1 to 0.45 watts per hour (PS4 Pro: 1.5 watts).
And even in standby mode, the console’s energy requirement is just 1 to 1.5 watts per hour. Here too, the PS4 Pro definitely performs worse with 5 watts.
So it should already be clear that you should definitely always turn off the console or at least put it in standby mode when you’re not actively using it.
If you are just in the console’s menu, the consumption is already around 50 watts per hour (PS4 Pro: about 70 watts). During streaming, the power consumption of the PS5 can rise to up to 75 watts; this value is again clearly below the power requirement of the PS4 during streaming: up to 100 watts per hour.
You can learn why you should generally avoid streaming on the PS5 in this article:
The electricity consumption is of course highest for what it is used for the most: gaming.
In general, it can be said that the energy requirement of the PS5 while gaming is on average between 140 and 200 watts per hour. However, depending on which game you are playing, this can vary significantly.
For less graphically demanding or backward-compatible games, an hourly power consumption of 100 to 150 watts is the norm, while for games that are particularly demanding on the console’s hardware, it can even rise to peak values of up to 220 watts.
This means: The newer your game and the higher its resolution, the higher the energy consumption.
If you want to save electricity, you should play your games on the PS5 in performance mode rather than in 4k mode.
In direct comparison with the PS4 Pro (on average 177 watts), the PS5 is therefore also clearly below the consumption of the PS4 Pro with older games. Only for next-gen games does the tables turn, meaning Sony’s jewel has a higher requirement than its predecessor.
Here are the average consumption values in comparison

Ø PS5

Direct comparison of the power consumption between the PS5 and the PS4 Pro.
But: Not every PS5 consumes the same amount of electricity
Can we therefore generally conclude: “The newer the console, the cheaper it is”? All values given for the PS5 refer to the launch model of the console (CFI-1000). However, it is also interesting to see how the power consumption of the PS5 has changed over the two newer models.
For the model from 2021 (CFI-1100), the consumption when gaming is even higher than the original version of the PS5, averaging 229 watts per hour.
This new model (CFI-1200) is currently only available in Japan and Australia but is expected to be sold in Europe soon.
At least a small consolation for those who still haven’t been able to buy the PS5 and thus older models of the coveted console.
How much does electricity cost on average right now
How expensive is electricity these days? This fundamentally depends on a number of factors such as your location and provider. On average, the current electricity price, according to the comparison portal Verifox, is about 51 cents per kilowatt hour – and thus as high as never before in Germany (via verifix.de).
Year
Electricity price per kWh
2022
39.92 ct/kWh
2021

2020

2019
29.51 ct/kWh
2018
27.82 ct/kWh
The electricity prices of the last five years on average (source: Verivox).
If we assume a worst-case scenario and take the maximum measured consumption of 220 watts on the PS5 with a next-gen title and calculate it with the weekly gaming time of 20 hours, it results in an electricity consumption of:
daily: 0.63 kWh
weekly: 4.40 kWh
monthly: 17.56 kWh
yearly: 228.23 kWh
This corresponds to costs of approximately:
daily: €0.32
weekly: €2.24
monthly: €8.95
yearly: €116.40
Conclusion
The sought-after console will not drive you into financial ruin if you play your 20 hours a week. Nevertheless, due to the current situation, it is certainly advisable to be a little more mindful with your screen time and to keep an eye on future electricity price developments.

In Fortnite today, on September 18th, the servers will go down on all platforms (PC, Mac, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Switch, Android). The maintenance work will be used to upload the new update 22.00 for Season 4 to the servers. Preliminary patch notes for the update can be found here.
What you can expect during the server downtime, whether it will run smoothly and what leaks will be revealed, you will find out in the following part of our post.
If you want to know what to expect in the story, you can check here:

Fortnite: Server Down – When and how long is it offline?
When can you play again?Typically, all modes of Fortnite will be disabled half an hour before the update. After that, the servers will go down at 8:00 AM and you will all be kicked out of the game. At some point, Epic Games will allow you to download the update, and after the download, you should be able to log back in.
However, during such a server downtime for a new season, it gets more complicated. The file is usually larger, and there are often delays, bugs, or issues that push Epic Games’ schedule further back. Therefore, we assume that you will only be able to log back into Fortnite around noon.
When will the patch notes arrive? When a new season starts, the patch notes will also officially be published by Epic Games later in the day. We will summarize these for you concisely in our article.
What new content does update 22.00 bring?
What’s new for Season 4? This is what the official patch notes say:
New Item – The Chrom Slime
The new portable Chrom Slime
Epic Games has designed a new throwable item. The “Chrom Slime” sticks to all platforms and allows you to phase through walls. However, if you want to be invulnerable to fire, simply toss the new grenade at your feet.
This way, you can avoid fall damage for a short time, gain increased movement speed, and even run through walls with a dash.
New POIs, including Herald’s Sanctum and Cloudy Condos
New boss arena for the HeraldFloating Cloudy Condos
With a new season, new places are also coming to the map for players to explore. Among them this time are:
The Herald’s Sanctum
Cloudy Condos
There are more changes on the map that we will bring you closer in the following post:
In Season 4, fans of the BR shooter will also receive new firearms for their heated battles. Among them are two EvoChrom weapons that automatically upgrade their rarity when you hit enemies. Accuracy pays off, thus. You can only find these weapons scattered across the map in Chrom chests.
All weapons for Season 4 Chapter 3
Handgun
First Shot Shotgun
Lever Shotgun
Rapid-Fire SMG
Silenced SMG
Ranger Assault Rifle
Hammer Assault Rifle
Precision Rifle (DMR)
Repeater Hunting Rifle
Grenade
Firefly Jar
Harpoon
Shadow Tat (exotic weapon)
The Double (exotic weapon)
Boom Sniper Rifle (exotic weapon)
Boogie Bomb
Shock Wave Grenade
Sniper rifles finally useful again
The sniper rifles in Fortnite really suffered from a massive nerf in Season 3. It took multiple headshots to eliminate an opponent. With the Season 4 update, the headshot multiplier is being changed again. One headshot is now enough to kill enemies. The following weapons benefit from this:
Repeater Hunting Rifle – Damage and headshot multiplier increased
Hunting Rifle – Damage and headshot multiplier increased
Automatic Sniper Rifle – Damage and headshot multiplier increased
Lever Action Rifle – Damage and headshot multiplier increased
Silenced Sniper Rifle – Damage increased
Semi-Automatic Sniper Rifle – Damage increased
Rail Gun – Damage increased
Repeater Sniper Rifle – Damage increased
Heavy Sniper Rifle – Headshot multiplier increased
In Season 4, the vaults full of loot still exist, but they now work a bit differently. To open them now, you need special vault keys. You will be able to find these with some luck during a few matches.
You can now only open these vaults with these keys. To unlock a low lock level, you need one key; for a high level, you need two keys, but get more loot in return.
The vaults will be marked on the map with a keyhole symbol as soon as you are in possession of a key.
New device – The Pocket Bunker
The Pocket Bunker – A useful item
In a new season, new gadgets are a must. This time, Epic Games’ creative team has come up with something unusual. A mini bunker in pocket size. With it, you get the ability to compactly place a bunker during combat. This includes reinforced metal walls, doors, and a ramp. You can even use the device in non-building mode.
Minor adjustment to sliding
Epic Games has ensured that you can now push enemies back while sliding if you hit them.
Competition Note
Firefly jars and shockwave grenades are not available in competitive game modes.
Punishments for prohibited hardware
Epic Games does not tolerate any form of cheating in its game. For this reason, all owners of a Cronus Zen and Cronus Max are urged not to use them. Should you attempt to circumvent Fortnite’s system and still use them, you will be permanently banned.
Here are the known leaks in Fortnite for Season 4:

Do you want to know if Fortnite is still popular in 2022? Then this article is just right for you:
On Saturday, September 17th, there was an emergency at the MMORPG Wizard101 (PC, also Steam). The servers had to be temporarily shut down. Apparently, a disgruntled employee used the MMORPG to vent his frustration over server messages. He defamed the company and spoke in an inappropriate manner about body parts of his boss.
Trigger Warning: This post contains some swear words and insults.
Players take on the role of students at the ‘Ravenwood School of Magic Arts’, learning spells and fighting against enemies.
The game is primarily aimed at a young audience: There is a special protective measure for children under 13 years old.

4 Hours Server Down Due to “Unexpected Issue”
This was the server down: On Saturday, September 17th, at 4 AM our time, the servers were taken down due to an “unexpected issue”.
4 hours later, the servers came back up: The studio apologized for the problems, spoke about a “temporary fix” and assured that an investigation would be initiated on how to “solve the issue in the long term”.
What kind of messages were there exactly? What sounds like there was a trivial, minor server issue apparently was a furious employee, who sent confusing messages to all players through system messages for hours. For example, he wrote:
“The next world is my boss’s asshole”
“the game is shit”
Or simply: “Dicks and Balls”
But there were also other messages such as: “Come to Room 102 and I’ll beat you up”. In one message, the user quoted the series Breaking Bad:

How is this being discussed by players? There are mixed opinions:
On one hand, some find it simply funny that someone would do such a thing and regret having missed the action
Others say, however: That children reading this language is not okay
There is also consensus: No matter who the person was, after this appearance, they are likely to have a hard time finding a new job in the gaming industry
Overall, the crisis management of KingIsle Entertainment is considered difficult, dismissing it as an “unexpected issue” – one wishes for a concrete statement. Twitter users are now also interested in how the working conditions for employees are, that such a protest occurs.
Wizard101 is from 2008 – players can build deep relationships with MMORPGs they play for a long time:
In League of Legends there are currently 161 different champions. For some of them, the way to play is very clear, while others have very complex abilities. And some are simply toxic. Pro jungler “Jankos” from G2 Esports has his own toxic favorite.
Which champion has a playstyle that is very toxic? According to Jankos, Karthus is one of the toxic characters in League of Legends, if not the worst of all. Karthus is a mage who has been played in every lane in recent years:
Karthus was most often played in the mid lane in his role as a mage
In the top lane, he was played for a while as a response to tanks
In the bot lane, Karthus has been seen as a mage carry or occasionally as support
For one season, jungle Karthus was part of the meta
Jankos does not criticize the player behind the playstyle and does not really comment on Riot Games, who developed the champion. But he condemns how the champion has fit into the meta. The character shows very dull gameplay.

Favorites of a few are the hated champs of many players
What Jankos says about Karthus gameplay: In his statement, Jankos refers to the solo/duo ranked games. Karthus has a simple mechanic to continuously push the lane. He kills every minion with the Q ability.
If Karthus cannot push the lane, he goes back to base, buys more items that give him mana to use his Q ability more often, and can thus continue to push the lane. If he gets pushed himself or killed, nothing changes for him and the champion resumes his previous plan.
Once Karthus reaches level 6, he can hit all opponents on the map with his ultimate ability. If he manages to kill someone with it, everything is fine and the character flourishes. If he fails, the dull gameplay is repeated until the team wins or loses.
Here is the excerpt from Jankos, where he complains about Karthus in English:
https://youtu.be/GXYIdowby_A
Karthus is probably the most toxic champion in LoL – Pro Jankos tells you why
Why is it called toxic gameplay? Toxic gameplay refers to playstyles that are made apparent through certain mechanics of the characters. Some playstyles are dictated or limited by patches from Riot Games.
Abilities receive adjustments to weaken or strengthen champions. For example, a reduction in ability power for abilities. Such changes mean that it is no longer possible to play Master Yi with ability power. This then also changes the playstyle of these champions.
Gameplay becomes toxic when champions have a very one-sided style of play without bringing variety. It is not fun for opponents to play against such champions, and teammates often do not enjoy playing with such players either.

Other champions who are hated or toxic in the Rift: Many players and even Riot Games agree on some of the remaining champions. However, throughout the history of LoL, there have been characters who were sometimes worse, sometimes not as toxic.
Teemo leads many of these lists. Riot Games has created a special game mode for Teemo where you play 5vs5 against bots. However, these bots are stronger than normal bots. The abilities deal more damage or have a larger radius. Doom-Bots-of-Doom have different levels, and Teemo is the final boss.
Other characters that also have the potential to be final bosses are mentioned in the English Reddit thread by u/IllustratorEither499, for example, Yuumi and Heimerdinger.
shadesofbloos writes: “Yuumi is it solely because of the high number of bot accounts that are in my games.”
Nsamurai22 states: “Heimerdinger. No one has fun when a half-hearted Heimerdinger player is present. I don’t even think they have fun themselves.”
HubblePie adds: “Shaco. Because Shaco would make him sad.”

32-year-old Carlos “Ocelote” Rodriguez is the CEO of G2 Esports, one of the most important eSports teams in Europe, dominating in European League of Legends. The former midlaner in LoL is known for his loud and fiery appearances: He recently posted a video on Twitter showing him celebrating with Andrew Tate. For this, he must endure a lot of criticism, even from his own favorite player, Perkz.
What did Ocelote do? The CEO of G2 posted a tweet on the afternoon of September 17 with the text: “Yesterday we celebrated G2’s world championship”:
In the tweet, some people are holding bottles with sparklers
During the camera shot over the celebrants, Andrew Tate can be seen – along with his brother Tristan
Why is Andrew Tate such a controversial figure? The former kickboxer Andrew Tate has become one of the most infamous figures on the internet in recent months, mostly due to his views and behavior towards women. His actions and opinions are considered by many to be misogynistic.
The Guardian reports, on August 6 (via theguardian):
Andrew Tate says women belong in the house, can’t drive, are the property of men. He also thinks that rape victims must take responsibility for the assaults […]
The Guardian
What most people find worst: In a YouTube video, Tate said he decided to move to Romania because it is less likely there to be prosecuted for rape.
In April 2022, his house in Romania was investigated by the police after the US embassy reported that an American woman might be held there. Later, the investigation was expanded to include human trafficking. The investigation is still inconclusive – Tate denies the allegations (via sportskeeda).
Meanwhile, Andrew Tate has been banned from Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok – he deleted his Twitch channel himself.
Twitter users accuse G2 of undermining their own values
How is the criticism directed at Ocelote? The video of the celebration is being controversially discussed. Users say:
Weird to hang out with a known womanizer, to be honest. Fits the “G2” brand; or?
Wait, Carlos, you must be joking, right? You’re better than that?
A user on Twitter has tagged all the major brands G2 collaborates with, asking if they also support “misogyny”? Partners include BMW, Logitech, Red Bull, Adidas and many more.
In reference to the announcement that G2 has announced an all-female team, people ask: Does the 2 in G2 stand for “double standards”?
However, some users defend Ocelote: After all, Tate has not been convicted.
Perkz and Caps (left) were the pillars of G2 for years.
What is Perkz’s criticism? The player Perkz was the face of G2 in LoL for years and was always considered a kind of “adopted son” of Ocelote. Perkz also criticized G2’s appearance on Twitter with a “vomit” emoji and a meme (via perkz).
In response to the demand that he needs to come back to G2 and lead the company as CEO, Perkz replies: He was already there, had won 9 titles, had recruited 7 players, and made G2 profitable on his own.
The LoL caster Medic explains: The behavior is in no way a private matter. Ocelote must know exactly what such a video triggers.

How does Ocelote respond? He wants nothing to do with the criticism. He says: That’s where he draws the line. He celebrates with whom he wants to celebrate:
For Ocelote, it is apparently a private matter
Many of his critics, however, see in the video behavior that disgusts them and directly associate it with G2 Esports
Ocelote has always stood out with bold statements:

What do the beta of CoD MW 2019, Cold War, and Modern Warfare 2 have in common? Their best weapon! The submachine gun MP5 rocks the maps of the current beta and is no stranger in meta circles. However, you need a little trick to unlock it – we, from MeinMMO, provide you with a strong setup for the MP5.
Why is the MP5 so strong? The beta of Modern Warfare offers a total of 17 weapons, but only about half of them are playable in the first week. The submachine guns perform particularly well:
Lachmann-MP
FSS Hurricane
Both are considered very strong, deal a lot of damage to the opponent in close combat, and can also be controlled at greater distances.
The Lachmann-MP, which is actually the MP5, performs slightly better than the Hurricane. It eliminates opponents in close combat with just a few hits and hardly recoils while firing. Additionally, you are fast on your feet with strong movement values.
CoD expert “TheXclusiveAce” labels the weapon in a short video as “the best weapon” of the beta (via youtube.com) – at least in the first beta week.
CoD Modern Warfare 2: PlayStation trailer for the beta
CoD MW2 Beta: MP5 / Lachmann-MP – Unlocking and Setup
How do I get the MP5 in the beta? The gunsmith is somewhat bugged in the beta. Access to the Lachmann weapon platform is therefore restricted. However, you can still get it with a trick:
Go to the “Weapons” tab
Select a class without “Overkill”
Select the shotgun Expedite 12 as primary weapon
Change your perk package to one with “Overkill”
Now you have the Lachmann-556 as secondary weapon
Level the Lachmann-556 for a few matches (as secondary weapon with Overkill)
Now the Lachmann-MP can be selected among the submachine guns
This is a bug. Developer Infinity Ward has confirmed that the weapons are actually part of the current beta phase (via twitter.com).
What does a strong setup look like? Currently, many setups for the Lachmann-MP5 are circulating on the internet. We show you a setup with very strong movement values and a focus on aim speed, so you can quickly get into view. But the stability is also impressive:
The German Twitch streamer Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris was the target of a parody by Jan Böhmermann on ZDF Magazin Royale on September 16. In the show, Twitch streamers were accused of promoting gambling in games like FIFA 22. In a Twitch stream, MontanaBlack explained how he views the discussion around loot boxes. MontanaBlack sees the responsibility only partially lying with EA or Twitch streamers: He believes the state should be accountable.
The satirist Jan Böhmermann commented on the show in the role of a Twitch streamer, resembling the German streamer MontanaBlack. He was quite shocked when the topic of “taxes” was mentioned.
At the end of the video, host Böhmermann insulted streamer Böhmermann as an “asshole” for promoting something like loot boxes.
Cap, muscle shirt, chain around the neck, and a bulky watch: The external features of MontanaBlack were clearly recognizable in Böhmermann’s character:
Start video
Career and Life of MontanaBlack in 2 Minutes: What Makes Him Unique?
“I have a clean slate”
What MontanaBlack said before the broadcast: Even before the show aired on Friday, MontanaBlack was seen live on Twitch with streamer Trymacs.
Trymacs asked MontanaBlack how he felt about Böhmermann seemingly parodying him:
Trymacs: “Should that be you?”
MontanaBlack: “Yeah, I guess so. I don’t know. At least – it was definitely a reference to me. But I think if it were a complete thing, then maybe he would have added a tattoo …”
MontanaBlack, in any case, viewed the appearance casually. He stated he has a clean slate. He last showcased a casino 3.5 years ago. Only the “e-cigarettes” thing could Böhmermann open up, but he stated he only smokes them; he has no cigarettes on the market himself.
However, it annoys him when thousands of people ask him what it is all about, and he himself simply does not know.
Even though MontanaBlack stated he has a clean slate, it sounded like he had concerns about being a scapegoat for casino streams or e-cigarettes. He already found this criticism unfair in advance.
The streamer said: He actually likes Böhmermann and could potentially be friends with him in private – only that thing from a few years ago when Böhmermann accused his community of consisting of young Nazis, that was a major mistake by the satirist. MontanaBlack had also defended himself against that accusation.

MontanaBlack lets lawyer check video
What MontanaBlack said during the broadcast: While the show was already available in the media library, MontanaBlack continued to stream on Twitch. In the middle of it, he looked at his phone, read briefly, and then said to Trymacs:
“It’s about in-game purchases. My business partner is writing to me right now: all good, it’s about in-game purchases. Meanwhile, the first one who watched the video was my lawyer. You never know what nonsense might be claimed. You have a status, dude, where you always have to have lawyers available 24/7.”

What does MontanaBlack say about the criticism of streamers in the segment? Like Trymacs, MontanaBlack sees only a small responsibility on his part when viewers spend too much money on loot boxes in FIFA. The streamer says:
“You can take every larger influencer who plays FIFA or CS:GO or whatever and does case openings, and that is something that can definitely be criticized. Max [Trymacs] or I or the others are also aware that it’s really not far from gambling.
But it’s content for us, and we simply hope that people realize that we are people who have more money and waste it there. And I hope that people are in control of themselves, and in the end, everyone is responsible for themselves.”
MontanaBlack sees the blame for the problem with:
1% EA
4% the streamers
and 95% “Father State,” who allows this
MontanaBlack says, if he were in EA’s position and loot boxes were legal, he would also do it right away.
With “Father State,” MontanaBlack has had ongoing problems. He was annoyed in April 2021 about the regulations he faced. He was considering leaving Germany for Malta. There, he would have to pay fewer taxes and could indulge in gambling on Twitch again.
How dangerous gambling can be is currently shown by the streamer “ItsSlikeR,” who borrowed money from viewers and fellow streamers over several years – and paid back nothing:
Multiplayer games and MMOs are “endless games” that can consume a lot of time. How much do you spend on it?
Gaming can be a very time-consuming hobby. Especially in the multiplayer and AAA sector, publishers often compete with each other, trying to outdo one another in terms of gameplay time and replay value of their games. Not to mention “endless games” like MMORPGs that receive regular updates.
Time is a valuable resource that gaming has to compete with other leisure activities and entertainment options. The head of the MMORPG FFXIV, Naoki Yoshida, noted this years ago. Most of us do not spend our often limited free time solely gaming.
We watch movies and series
Go out and spend time with friends
Do sports and have other hobbies that have nothing to do with gaming.
Additionally, many have families they need to care for and spend time with. The hobby of gaming must take a backseat.

All Important Information about Season 4 Chapter 3 at a Glance
No timer or similar clues indicate a live event. Therefore, we assume that Epic Games has not planned an event this time. If something changes shortly, we will let you know.
What could you expect in Season 4? Epic Games does not make it easy for fans, as all leaks and hints from Season 4 Chapter 3 have also been referred to as Paradise and deleted by the developer. Well-known leakers like Hypex and Shiina have managed to save some of the most important tweets for everyone to see.
These secured leaks speak of a new looming catastrophe that threatens to consume everything. After the peace celebration of Season 3, the Seven began to behave strangely. They removed their protective helmets and were captured by a mysterious figure.
Moreover, there is still a silver slime that engulfs everything it touches. This is slowly spreading across the map according to the story. Everything can be traced back to the saved zero point. Now it is up to you and your helpful scientist AI to avert another catastrophe.

A renewed chaos on the map, as well as the slow advance of the silver slime over various POIs, is possible. It remains to be seen whether Epic Games will immerse the entire island in chrome.
Are there hints about the new Battle Pass? Fortnite itself has released teaser images of drowning skins on various platforms. These hands still visible have been analyzed by fans and leakers and might show all upcoming skins of the new Battle Pass. These include:
Gwen from the Marvel universe
Goth Meowscles – A different variant of the muscular cat from Chapter 2
Paradigma – One of the Seven
An unknown skin known from Epic surveys
Thus, there are still at least three more skins to complete the Battle Pass. Which ones they are, fans will find out only upon its release. Are you excited for Season 4 and can hardly wait to walk on a chrome-covered map? Let us know in the comments!

On the night of Saturday to Sunday, September 18th, a user on “GTAForums” shared links to 90 clips of the highly anticipated GTA 6. They are now circulating on the internet: especially one YouTube video seems to actually offer images from the game by Rockstar that everyone is waiting for. Gaming insider Jason Schreier calls it the “biggest leak in the history of Rockstar.”
Where do the leaks come from?
In the forum “GTAForums”, a user named “Teaportuberhacker” posted a data file that supposedly contains 90 videos and footage – the data is 3.4 GB in size (via gtaforums).
He claims: The videos come from a “test build” of GTA 6.
These videos are now spreading rapidly on YouTube, Twitter, and Reddit.
“Raw” gameplay video shows heist reminiscent of Pulp Fiction
This is the most exciting video: A 3-minute video has already been circulating on YouTube.
The video shows a character named Luca robbing a waffle restaurant, threatening the staff, who respond with a Slavic accent.
Action music plays in the background, an accomplice threatens the restaurant patrons, police sirens wail, and it all somewhat resembles a scene from Pulp Fiction.
The leaked material is currently being removed from YouTube and is mostly no longer accessible.
GTA 6 looks like rough, hard-hitting action
What stands out: Especially the lines from the criminal accomplice create tension in the clip and put pressure on the player:
“If I take one of you out, I might have to take them all out”
“These are the cops. What the hell do we do now?”
“I’m just waiting for a reason”
“Don’t even try anything.”
“Nobody wants me to use this.”
The clip then ends with the character shooting a restaurant patron and asking: “Who wants to be next?”
Insane talk by the pool
What other clips are there? On Twitter, there is about a 1-minute video showcasing strange “conspiracy” talk at the edge of a swimming pool:
People talking about how someone can “download your brain and sell it to the Chinese”
that some idiots even believe there is a country called Finland
one must “break out of the damn cage”
What is the reaction to this? In the forum, the leaker was first insulted before taking a closer look at the content. A user then judges: “This might be the first real leak of GTA 6.”
At the moment, people are apparently busy reviewing the material before Rockstar or Take-Two takes it down.
Leak apparently created through “social engineering” – sneaked into Slack group
How did the leaker get this data? From the few details we have, it is said that the leaker used “social engineering” to sneak into a Slack group of Rockstar employees.
This seems to be easier during times of “working from home due to COVID” than it used to be.
“Social engineering” refers to techniques that influence interpersonal relationships so that people act in ways they normally wouldn’t. It works through psychological manipulation or tricks. It essentially exploits the “human factor” to bypass security measures.
“The biggest leak in the history of Rockstar”
Experts say: There seems to be something to the leak. Gaming insider Jason Schreier calls it the “biggest leak in the history of Rockstar” (via twitter).
Recently, rumors intensified that we might receive new info about GTA 6 in October:
The new map from Season 4 in Chapter 3 of Fortnite has been revealed. There are a few changes from the old map of Season 3. We will show you what’s new.
What’s new? On September 18, the new Season 4 in Fortnite started. At such a season start, players expect many changes like new weapons, items, and a new map. The map is usually extensively revised for the new chapters and receives smaller adjustments for the individual seasons.

Community Day in September 2022 – Start and Bonuses
What? Community Day featuring Klang When? Sunday, September 18, 2022, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time Pokémon of the day? Klang Exclusive move: Meteor Beam when you evolve Sedimantur into Brockoloss (up to 5 hours afterward) Bonuses: – Incense lasts 3 hours – Lure modules last 3 hours – Eggs hatch 4 times faster – double candy when catching – double chance for XL candies when catching (from level 31) – surprises in snapshots – event stickers from gifts and at PokéStops
Additional bonuses from 2:00 PM to 10:00 PM local time: – 50% less stardust cost when trading – one additional special trade (2 total on this day)
As in the last months, the Community Day featuring Klang will also last over 3 event hours. Most of the bonuses will only be available during this time. Only the trading bonuses can be used until 10:00 PM local time.
Special raid battles: Following the Community Day, from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM local time, you can encounter special level 4 raids, where you can battle Sedimantur, the first evolution of Klang. We will show you the best counters against Sedimantur here.
Participation is only possible on-site. You can only play with raid passes and premium battle passes. Remote raids do not work. Once you defeat the raid boss, you secure additional Klang spawns within a 300-meter radius around the gym for 30 minutes that offer you the same shiny chances as during the main C-Day.
What event content is available in the in-game shop? If you want to secure more content around the Community Day, you should check out the in-game shop. The following specialties are available for you:
Event ticket for the special research “Rock’n’Roll” focused on Klang for 1 Euro
New stickers for the Community Day featuring Klang
How to make the most of the Community Day featuring Klang
How you can prepare: To avoid suddenly facing a space issue in your Pokémon bag during the Community Day, it’s best to sort it out well in advance. It’s a good idea to use the filter function of Pokémon GO.
By entering “0*,1*,2*” you can specifically display all Pokémon with two or fewer stars. If you still need to sort during the event, you can add the input “Age0” to see only Pokémon that are not older than 24 hours.
If you want to pre-sort your Pokémon, you can also create a corresponding tag and assign the Pokémon there. You just need to click on the category “Tags” located to the left of the Pokémon, to add a new tag via the “+”.
Use tags in Pokémon GO
After that, you can easily assign your Pokémon to this tag through the Pokémon view. This way, you can also send the Pokémon later, for example during the event, all at once.
However, space in the Pokémon bag is not the only thing you should prepare for now. You will also need some items during the event. It’s best to acquire these in advance.
These items can be useful for the Community Day featuring Klang
Balls: First and foremost, you will obviously need balls on this day, as you can’t catch Pokémon without them. If you want to play throughout the entire event, be sure to have at least 200 balls available, so you won’t need to restock immediately.
Incense & Lure modules: As in previous months, the lure modules and incense will last 3 hours each during the Community Day featuring Klang. So it’s sufficient to have one of each in your inventory. If you want to set up multiple stops nearby with lure modules, you will need more.
Sananaberries: If you want to earn a lot of candies from Klang, it’s best to use Sananaberries while catching. They double your candies. However, you will still receive 6 candies even without using the berry due to the bonus.
These items should be used for the Community Day
Hatchers: Since your eggs will hatch 4 times faster during the event, it’s a good idea to place eggs with a high hatch distance in the hatchers. If you have additional hatchers besides the endless hatcher, you should definitely use those as well.
Due to the Steel Event that takes place alongside the Community Day, you might also find new content in the 7 km eggs. With some luck, you could hatch the fighting Pokémon Riolu from them, whose evolutions Lucario is among the best fighting attackers in the game.
Other items: Due to the amount of Pokémon that spawn in a short period during the event, it’s also a great opportunity to earn experience points and stardust. If that’s your goal, be sure to also think about lucky eggs and star pieces.
After the Community Day, there will also be special level 4 raids featuring Sedimantur, which you can only battle on-site. So make sure to have appropriate raid passes and premium battle passes ready to participate in the raid, as well as revives and potions, so your top attackers are ready to go again.

This Mega Evolution is suitable for the C-Day
Why do you need a Mega Evolution? Not only the right items can be helpful during the Community Day. If you want to collect even more candies, it’s best to develop a Mega Pokémon for the event.
If it has the same type as the Pokémon you are catching, you will receive an additional candy for each Pokémon you catch. Since Klang is a rock type, your Mega evolution should also be a rock Pokémon. However, there is currently only one in the game, which is Mega-Aerodactyl.
Use Mega-Aerodactyl to get even more candies
Is the Community Day featuring Klang worth it?
Is Klang available as shiny? Yes, Klang can also be found in its shiny form in the game. During the Community Day and in the special spawns after the raid battles, the chance of encountering one is even increased. You recognize the shiny by its purple body and orange eye.
Klang, Sedimantur, and Brockoloss normal (left) and as shiny (right)
How strong is Klang? Klang is a rock Pokémon from the 5th generation of games, which can evolve into Sedimantur and then into Brockoloss. This small Pokémon is not particularly strong itself. However, its evolution Brockoloss is another story.
This one has solid stats and can deal significant damage to opponents with a current moveset of Rock Slide and Meteor Beam. For this reason, it is one of the best rock attackers in Pokémon GO.
The event charge move Meteor Beam can be learned by Brockoloss during the Community Day for the first time. This move does even more damage compared to its previous charge move Rock Slide. In the GO Battle League, however, Klang and its evolutions do not impress.
Who should take advantage of the Community Day? The Community Day featuring Klang is interesting for all players looking for a strong rock attacker for raids. It makes sense to evolve Sedimantur into Brockoloss to secure the new charge move. Additionally, shiny hunters will find great value in this event.
Due to the shortened hatch distance for eggs, it’s also advisable to put 7-, 10-, and 12-km eggs in hatchers. And the candy bonus is also impressive, as it applies to all Pokémon you catch during the C-Day.
You can also play raids or trigger a mystery box if Klang does not interest you. Just be careful not to activate any incense at the same time, as both cannot be active simultaneously.
What do you think of the prospects for the Community Day featuring Klang? How do you prepare for the event? And what bonus do you not want to miss? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO and exchange ideas with other trainers.
