Today marks the first day of the Pokémon GO Fest 2022. Here you will find all the content that awaits you on Saturday at a glance.

When does Day 1 start? The Pokémon GO Fest 2022 starts on Saturday at 10:00 AM and ends at 6:00 PM. It continues on Sunday, also at 10:00.

How can I participate? There are two options. Either you buy a ticket and get access to all the content of GO Fest 2022. Or you play without a ticket – but in that case, there are only limited features. For example, you can participate in raids, but you will not receive extra raid passes, exclusive spawns, or special research.

You can find the detailed overview here: Pokémon GO Fest 2022 with or without a ticket? The differences.

What to expect on Day 2 will be shown here:

Day 2: How the GO Fest 2022 is going on Sunday, June 5

What Saturday brings for GO Fest 2022

The Special Research: On Saturday, the special research begins, through which you can secure the mysterious Pokémon Shaymin in its land form – but only with a ticket. The research will offer you various paths to solve and some rewards.

You can find the overview with all the steps of the research here.

The Habitats: On Saturday, various “habitats” will change hourly, where you will encounter different Pokémon. These are the habitats “City”, “Plain”, “Rainforest”, and “Tundra”. You can play each habitat twice on the GO Fest Saturday if you take the entire duration.

An overview of all Pokémon spawns in the habitats can be found here.

Global Challenges: Every hour there will be a global challenge that all trainers around the world must solve together. Once completed, a special bonus will be unlocked for the remainder of the hour – this can be extra XP, Stardust, and more. Additionally, the “Ultra Bonus” for a future event will be unlocked if enough challenges are completed.

Raids: On Saturday, various raids with interesting Pokémon will take place. Specifically, the 1-star raids with Dratini, which is otherwise very rare. There will also be a costumed Pikachu for GO Fest 2022.

In the legendary raids you can expect Kyogre and Groudon. Important: You can also challenge the raids even if you don’t have a ticket.

The secret raid boss announced for GO Fest 2022 will only appear on Day 2.

More about Pokémon GO Fest 2022:

5 Pokémon even celebrate their Shiny debut:

  • Dratini
  • Swablu
  • Gulpin
  • Shuckle
  • Dratini

Additionally, you can encounter the Incognito B, G, O, and U – also in their Shiny form.

Destiny 2 recognizes one of the biggest issues in PvP, but first fixes one in PvE

Christos Tsogos Christos Tsogos Reading time 4 minutes

These listed Solar changes will go live with hotfix 4.1.0.2 next week. Also, check in with Ikora. She is now also selling the last two fragments for your Solar super.

More on Destiny 2 can be found here:

What will happen to the Iron Banner now? The Iron Banner has been transformed into a big event and will disappear for many weeks after the weekly reset on June 7. Bungie thus has enough time to adjust the listed bugs before the last Iron Banner of Season 17. Until then, Guardians will probably continue to struggle with the issues over the weekend.

What do you think of the terse TWaB regarding the Iron Banner? Would you have liked more information about upcoming adjustments, or are you even looking forward to the Solar 3.0 changes? Let us know in the comments!

The new TWaB from Destiny 2 has been revealed and many players hope that Bungie will finally address the serious issues in the tough PvP mode “Iron Banner”. But instead of naming upcoming changes, first the PvE is polished.

What’s going on in Destiny 2 right now? The Iron Banner is burning and the players too, as with the new mode “Rift” many Guardians had to change their play style to team play and also fight against many bugs.

Update on June 4 / 00:30 AM
Bungie mentioned nothing about a quick hotfix for the issues in the Iron Banner event in the official blog post. However, dmg04, the Community Manager, gave players hope on Twitter. The team might possibly offer some solutions before the current Iron Banner event ends. This has now happened.

The following quick fixes have just been brought into the game by Bungie:
– Challenges now grant reputation bonuses as intended, up to a maximum of 4 daily challenges.
– Due to this problem, double Iron Banner reputation was activated for all players until the weekly reset.
– The emblem “Heavy as Death” now correctly contributes to the Iron Banner reputation bonuses.
– Step 5 of the “Forging Iron” quest now continues correctly even when Iron Banner ornaments are equipped.

Bungie Help/ via Twitter 1/ via Twitter 2

Countless matches have either been won or lost decisively, and players are complaining about brutal bugs that make a relaxed and smooth match impossible. These problems include the following:

  • Unfair matchmaking – Mostly fights against 6-man teams that tear you apart
  • Teleport bug where you are stuck in a black screen
  • The spark disappears and can no longer be picked up
  • Various visual bugs during teleportation

These problems are so severe that fans of the loot shooter are resorting to threats against the developers. Therefore, players hoped that Bungie would finally list fixes in the new TWaB and plan them in advance, as the current Iron Banner event is ending soon. However, the development team is focusing, according to the latest announcements we know, primarily on PvE.

Solar 3.0 will be improved first

Bungie reports on the Iron Banner and clarifies how the new mode is intended. A focus on team play, where most kills are not the winning factor, but the cohesion of the squad.

It has been explained how to earn the most Iron Banner rank points and that Bungie’s team is working on the reported bugs and issues.

But whether and when these errors will be fixed was not mentioned. Instead, Bungie first addresses Solar 3.0 and at least offers adjustments for various classes there soon.

Were there problems with Solar 3.0? The Solar 3.0 praised by Bungie led to disillusionment for many Guardians, and Bungie acknowledged that the new abilities “didn’t blow anyone’s face off.” Especially, Warlocks suffer from the adjustments and nerfs of the fiery class.

solar3-0-destiny2-warlockr-daemmerklinge-brunnen
The Warlock is struggling with his support

Where once a Well of Light provided an overshield, it now only regenerates your health. With Solar 3.0, the Warlock has thus been dethroned from his support throne. However, this is set to change with the upcoming adjustments.

Bungie has announced the following changes for the Warlock and Titan:

  • Warlock
    • Aspect adjustment – Heat Wave
      • Consuming your grenade unleashes a wave of restoration on you and your allies. Consuming a healing grenade enhances the healing effect. If you even use the aspect “Flaming Touch” and then consume a healing grenade, you will receive ongoing regeneration and additional bonuses.
    • Aspect adjustment – Icarus Dash
      • Enemies killed by your weapons or super while you are in the air heal you.
    • Super adjustment – Dawnblade
      • Each projectile of the Dawnblade adds 10 Scorch stacks to your enemies. This effect can be increased to 15 stacks with the fragment “Ember of Ashes”.
  • Titan
    • Super adjustment – Brandhammer
      • Damage is increased by 25% in PvE
    • Aspect adjustment – Roaring Flames
      • While Roaring Flames is active, your uncharged melee applies Solar damage to your enemies. Additionally, you can leave your enemies with 30 stacks of Scorch per melee, which can be increased to 40 stacks if you have the fragment “Ember of Ashes” equipped.
    • Aspect adjustment – Consecration
      • You can carry two fragments. The second flame shockwave of your melee is increased by 25%. This allows you to hit your enemies more safely who do not manage to dodge in time.

These listed Solar changes will go live with hotfix 4.1.0.2 next week. Also, check in with Ikora. She is now also selling the last two fragments for your Solar super.

Destiny 2: Xur today – location and offer on 03.06.

Britta ♤ BeAngel Britta ♤ BeAngel Reading time 4 minutes

Welcome to Destiny 2 for a new edition of “Xur-live!” The exotic vendor with an affinity for the number Nine will arrive today to extract Legendary Shards from the Guardians. MeinMMO has picked up the trail to show you his offerings first.

What happened this week in Destiny 2? While the new story of Season 17 hasn’t revealed anything truly captivating yet, the Guardians are taking their time to calmly complete their collection of exotic armors.

The botched launch of the Iron Banner event with “Rift” has also led many PvP players to express their frustrations openly and even threaten Bungie employees. The players feel that their wishes have been ignored for too long, and some Guardians are dissatisfied with the changes and the current state of the space shooter overall.

Bungie will likely have to do a lot to regain their trust. A fix for the issues in Iron Banner might even come this week, as dmg04 revealed on Twitter. But that’s not certain. Because Bungie also announced that they would first address the problems in PvE, related to the underwhelming new Solar 3.0 abilities:

Can Eris Morn find the answers with Calus?

All info about Xur on June 3, 2022 – PS4, PS5, PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Google Stadia

When does Xur come? The most famous vendor from Destiny 2 starts his show every Friday at 7:00 PM. Anyone who brings a few Legendary Shards and other materials for trading can browse his offerings.

Where is Xur? This is his location for the weekend

Xur’s location: We do not yet know where exactly Xur will be this week. However, MeinMMO knows the locations of Xur and has already tracked him down. This week you need to go to Nessus to the Guardian’s grave.

Destiny-2_nessus-wächtergrab
Xur is on Nessus.

Xur’s inventory from June 3 – June 7 – All Exotics at a glance

What does Xur have to offer? For all Guardians who do not know Xur yet: He is an exotic vendor of the “Nine”, an ominous race in Destiny 2, and delivers new weapons and armor to players every week on their behalf. All characters, including Warlocks, Hunters, and Titans, can shop with him.

This week, his offerings include:

Weapon: Coldheart – Arc Fusion Rifle for 29 Legendary Shards

Hunter: Oathkeeper – Arc Gauntlets for 23 Legendary Shards

  • Mobility: +3
  • Resilience: +10
  • Recovery: +17
  • Discipline: +9
  • Intellect: +8
  • Strength: +12
  • Total: 59

Nexxoss Gaming gives you a closer look at Xur’s inventory.

Xur also sells Legendary items and offers unique rolls for Exotics from no longer available exotic missions from past DLCs every week.

Currently, he has these two weapons on offer:

  • The exotic hand cannon “The Last Word” with the perk “Hip-Fire Grip”
  • The exotic scout rifle “The Tale of a Dying Star” with the perk “Vorpal Weapon”

The cost of the weapons: For these two Exotics, the price is 1 Ascendant Shard, 1 Exotic Engram, 125,000 Glimmer and 200 Legendary Shards.

Xur always has: You can always get an Exotic Engram for 97 Legendary Shards from Xur, as well as the weekly quest to obtain an exotic code.

“In the dark age, we called that ‘fun’.

This weekend, there will still be no “Trials of Osiris” taking place. Valus Forge, the new Cabal name of Lord Saladin, awaits you in the Tower for the Iron Banner.

lord-saladin-eisenbanner-event-2022-destiny2-season17
Valus Forge’s Iron Banner is hard to miss now.

With the new mode “Rift”, many Guardians not only have to change their play style to team play but also combat the existing bugs. But no fight is easy and Guardians must show patience and hope that Bungie can address the issues quickly. The first fixes for this are already in the game.

For all Trials fans:

  • The Trials of Osiris will start for the first time in Season 17 on June 10.

At least the wait is worth it because, unlike the Iron Banner, the Trials of Osiris have been equipped with a new loot package during the “Season of the Haunted.” This includes new weapons as well as armor, a Sparrow, and a ghost shell.

Will you drop by Xur tonight and check his offerings or do you currently have no interest in the Destiny universe? Feel free to leave us a comment.

Pokémon GO: 5 Raids at the GO Fest 2022 that are really worthwhile

Max Handwerk Max Handwerk Reading time 5 minutes

The Pokémon GO Fest 2022 not only brings wild spawns but also different raids on both event days. Which ones are particularly worth it?

What role do raids play at GO Fest 2022? Basically, there is a new monster pool for the raids on the GO Fest weekend on June 4th and 5th. You will encounter a few monsters that are otherwise not available.

The interesting thing is: You can also challenge these monsters even without a GO Fest ticket. At the same time, with the GO Fest ticket, you get up to 9 raid passes on Saturday and Sunday when you spin gyms. Then raiding is definitely worth it.

You can find all the differences between “with ticket” and “without ticket” here.

What raids are available? Here we show you the complete list of raids available over the weekend and then take a closer look at 5 monsters that are really worth it.

Possible shiny encounters are marked with an asterisk*.

Raids on Saturday:

  • Costumed Pikachu*
  • Milza*
  • Arboretoss
  • Miezunder
  • Marikeck
  • Kyogre*
  • Groudon*

Raids on Sunday:

  • Costumed Pikachu*
  • Milza*
  • Wuffels*
  • Relaxo*
  • Brutalanda
  • Shardrago*
  • Arboretoss
  • Miezunder
  • Marikeck
  • Secret Level 5 Boss

Which 5 raids are really worth it?

Here we look at raids where your raid passes are well spent.

Milza

Pokémon-GO-Milza-Shiny-Familie
Milza and its evolutions

This is what makes Milza special: The little dragon has been one of the most sought-after Pokémon in the game over the past few months, as Milza has been extremely hard to obtain. With the 1-star raids, Milza is now really easy to get for the first time – although you still have to find them, of course. You can also get its shiny form with a bit of luck.

By the way: On Saturday, the monster is also supposed to spawn in the wild during the GO Fest 2022 when the habitat for the plain is active.

However, Milza is particularly exciting not only because of its rarity. Its final evolution, Maxax, is among the best dragon attackers overall and is only surpassed by a few monsters in this category – including the next one on this list.

Brutalanda

Pokemon GO Brutalanda
Brutalanda is a strong dragon monster

This is what makes Brutalanda special: Brutalanda is listed above Maxax among dragon attackers and is definitely worth a raid if you still need a good specimen. Additionally, you can also get a lot of candies from the raid if you already have a good Brutalanda.

For those who have missed this monster so far, the raid is definitely worthwhile. A small downside: You cannot obtain the shiny variant in the raid.

Kyogre

Pokemon-Go-Kyogre
Kyogre and its shiny form

This is what makes Kyogre special: The legendary water Pokémon is one of the absolute best water attackers in Pokémon GO and thus one of the best monsters at GO Fest.

When it comes to Kyogre, your raid passes are never wasted – unless you already have perfect specimens of the powerful water monster. But even then, you can still hunt for the shiny variant, which is available in raids.

However, keep in mind that this is a T5 raid. You will need a few people to take it down. You can find the best counters against Kyogre here.

Groudon

Pokemon-Go-Groudon
Groudon and its shiny form

This is what makes Groudon special: Groudon is the counterpart to Kyogre and can also boast very good stats. It is among the best attackers in the game and has a really striking shiny variant.

However, just like with Kyogre: You need a few people for Groudon. The best counters against Groudon can be found here in the guide.

The secret level 5 raid boss

What kind of boss is that? Well, that remains to be seen. So far, there has not been an official confirmation of who this boss will be.

The most likely answer is “Anego” – the first of the new Ultra Beasts that have been announced for Pokémon GO. The boss has not been confirmed yet.

Pokemon GO Anego
Anego is expected by many as a T5 boss

But whoever it will be, it is likely to be worth a raid – if only because a new Pokémon can be caught here.

Pokémon GO: The strongest attackers of all types in the video

What about the other raids?

This is what makes the other raids special: The remaining raids at GO Fest 2022 are not necessarily bad, but many are more situational and do not impress with super strong monsters.

Therefore, let’s take a quick look at these raids:

Costumed Pikachu: This is for collectors, but it doesn’t bring much in raids or PvP. Shiny hunters can try to catch the shiny form.

Arboretoss, Marikeck, and Miezunder: These are the second forms of the Alolan starters. All three were very easy to obtain during the Alolan season, as the starters were frequently seen in the wild.

All three are currently outclassed by other monsters in their respective types. Currently, only Marikeck with the evolution Primarene is really interesting, as it is a strong water attacker. Additionally, you cannot obtain any of these three as shiny.

More about Pokémon GO on MeinMMO:

Wuffels: Cute Pokémon that evolves into a cool Pokémon, but is currently not particularly interesting in raids or PvP. The shiny form can be caught – which may be an incentive.

Shardrago: Is rather useless in raids and only fills niche roles in PvP. However, it has a shiny form that can be caught.

Relaxo: Is a popular gym defender and has its uses in PvP – but is not particularly good in raids. You can also catch its shiny form with some luck. It is only included in this part of the list because it is now quite old, and many may already have it. If you are still missing one: Go find it.

If you want to make a precise plan for the GO Fest, you can find our guide with tips, shinies, bonuses, and more for Pokémon GO Fest 2022.

Players in Destiny 2 hate a PvP mode in Iron Banner – even threatening the staff

Britta ♤ BeAngel Britta ♤ BeAngel Reading time 5 minutes

The Weekly Reset brought in Destiny 2 the rework of the Iron Banner event and the PvP mode “Rift”. After an already weak start to the current Season 17, the Guardians hoped for some fresh wind. But when that didn’t happen, the frustration among some players led to a few extremely angry reactions. MeinMMO tells you what happened.    

What did the community criticize? Already after a few matches in “Rift” it was clear for many: This is not fun! The PvP mode would play worse than Control or other activities that were once part of the Iron Banner.

Update from June 3rd / 5:50 PM:
On Twitter, Liana Ruppert, Bungie’s Community Manager, has just released another, more detailed statement regarding the incidents.

In it, she addresses the hateful comments again and states that many studios have a strict “No Talk” policy with social networks exactly because of such behavior from players.
Many of the things that Destiny players wish for are already in progress, but cannot be discussed yet because things change, plans fail, or sometimes no longer make sense.

As far as the Bungie team is concerned, they will continue to listen to player feedback and continue discussions about the future.

You can read the complete feedback from the Community Manager on Twitter.

Some players were correspondingly frustrated and angry. Others shared possible improvements with Bungie, such as:

  • The black loading screen when teams are ported to the starting point
  • A missing match display between rounds showing individual performance
  • The number of rounds currently played in Rift mode
  • Bugs that cause the spark not to spawn and make the game impossible
  • As well as difficult-to-understand information on challenges, which caused confusion

The Community Managers of Destiny 2 received the Guardians’ feedback on Twitter and Reddit, as well as in the official Bungie forum, inquired about further points of criticism, answered questions, and also gave helpful tips.

Among them was not only Dylan “dmg04” Gafner, the Senior Community Manager, but also Liana “Hippy” Ruppert, Bungie’s newest Community Manager.

Liana “Hippy” Ruppert, Bungie’s newest Community Manager (Image: Twitter)

Player frustration turns into pure hate: What initially was solely criticism of a gameplay mode later turned into insults and vile slurs directed towards Bungie and its employees.

This became known when Liana “Hippy” Ruppert reported on Twitter the consequences of the physical threats against her. She reported threats and “honestly atrocious” insults.

At this point, parts of the Destiny 2 community had clearly crossed the line between constructive criticism of a game and pure hate driven by personal frustration and anger.

As Liana Ruppert writes in a recent Twitter post: “It’s not just ‘mean words’, […] I don’t care. It’s the ones who have stalked me and put me in the hospital, sending images of dead women to my address, and so much more”

After the Community Manager’s post, it was understandably important for many Destiny 2 players to publicly distance themselves from the behavior of such toxic threats.

Like the player wtfixur, who tweeted:

The people who work hard to develop our favorite games deserve respect, and those who support players even more. It is perfectly acceptable to have complaints about the game: However, address them respectfully through the right channels. Attacking individuals is NEVER okay.

posted wtfixur via Twitter

And the Destiny 2 player PDark also commented questioningly on Twitter:

The sheer anger that people can show over… mistakes in a video game that burns so bright and hot that it has to be directed at the employees of this game is incredible. How do they do it? How can they become so angry and toxic?

posted PDark on Twitter

Destiny 2 between constructive PvP criticism and pure hate

#BeBetter – Threats don’t make sense when constructive criticism is called for.

For some time now, some players have been dissatisfied with Bungie and the provided content in Destiny 2. Their criticism relates not only to the currently available content but also to the activities of the current Season 17, which some Guardians find disappointing.

The current issues of “Rift” in Iron Banner have stirred old emotions in some players that have maybe been building up for years.

The fact is that the community is largely so toxic and ungrateful that, no matter what Bungie does, it’s all wrong […]. I don’t understand the people who say: “Bungie has messed up everything since Shadowkeep”. “Bungie has been ruining everything since D2”. As if you’ve been playing a game for 5 years just to hate it. Then just leave the game and free up the servers.

like the player Enco commented on MeinMMO

The incident also highlights a growing problem that extends beyond Destiny 2 and has been present for years: Both game developers and their employees have to endure increasing personal insults, hostility, or even threats while doing their jobs.

Frustrations are one thing, but the current discourse surrounding the new mode Rift could not be further from being productive.

formulated the user First aptly.

MeinMMO has already highlighted this growing problem in gaming back in 2018.

Game developers have lost interest – and we are to blame!
von Cortyn

What happens next with the mode “Rift”?

Bungie has already announced that they will address the above and other player criticisms regarding the Iron Banner and the PvP mode “Rift” as soon as possible. Whether that will be enough for the players remains to be seen. However, if Bungie announces concrete fixes or changes, we will inform you.

Dylan Gafner (dmg04), Senior Community Manager, also wrote on Twitter: “We’re listening” is always the first step when it comes to feedback.”

More news about Destiny 2 can be found here:

In the coming days leading up to the Weekly Reset on June 7, Bungie intends to utilize the constructive and further feedback from players while addressing the already known issues.

The Community Manager also points out that the newly integrated mode “Rift” will have a “learning curve” in Destiny 2 and “defeating enemies is only a small part of the puzzle”.

What do you think about the hate from the community? Do you agree and believe Destiny 2 is no longer a place you want to be? Or do you believe in the Destiny universe and trust that Bungie will find viable solutions for players and that deep-rooted hate makes no sense? We would love to read your opinions on this topic in the comments.

Even fans of cash shops do not want to buy anything in Diablo Immortal, accuse Blizzard of extreme ‘greed’

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 3 minutes

In Diablo Immortal, many players had concerns that the cash shop might have too many items that provide advantages in the game, so-called “Pay2Win” items. Now that the game is out, however, there is another point of criticism: Blizzard is being particular about cosmetics. Because when someone buys an item in the shop, they buy it only for a single character – not account-wide. This is causing a stir.

This was actually what was expected as criticism of the cash shop:

  • Before the launch of Diablo Immortal, there were mainly players’ concerns that the game would constantly push players to the cash shop to buy certain conveniences.
  • Mobile games like Diablo Immortal are known for creating “artificial barriers” that lead to either interruptions in the gaming experience or very slow progress, unless players pay.
  • Now that the game is out, people see this a bit more relaxed. The PC Gamer website states, “Diablo Immortal is not quite Pay2Win, but close” – Currently, another quirk of the shop is causing annoyance. Surprisingly, “cosmetic items,” which are usually often harmless, are causing trouble in Diablo Immortal.

I played Diablo Immortal for 15 hours without spending money – How important is the shop?

Surprisingly, there is a lot of criticism regarding seemingly harmless “cosmetics” in Diablo Immortal

What is currently being criticized the most about the shop? On the gaming forum reddit, after the first day, there were already 3 threads with many upvotes discussing the same problem.

Items purchased in the shop are tied to the character and server with which the item is bought. This applies to cosmetic items, frames, battle pass rewards, or event goodies.

This means: If you later decide to switch servers or start a new character, the purchase was in vain. You cannot transfer the item you bought. It is worthless for the new character.

Our tier list shows you which classes are currently strong. You can see the classes here in the video:

Diablo Immortal: All 6 Classes in Brief Overview with Gameplay
  • A player says: “This causes extreme rigidity among all people with twinks or those who cannot decide on a starter class. What total crap, especially for store items. May I draw the developers’ attention to Path of Exile, where all characters always have full access to all cosmetic rewards?”
  • Another says: “What happens if I delete a character, do all cosmetics disappear too?”
  • A third writes: “Welcome to the future. You will own nothing, and you will be happy.”

Players demand: More freedom with cosmetics

How do players think it should be? Many players believe: Items purchased in the shop should be tied to the account and usable by multiple characters.

The problem seems to occupy many people quite a bit. Especially players who are used to leaving their money in the cash shop.

  • One user says: “I considered buying a nice cosmetic armor set. But since there is no account-wide unlock, I will not do it.”
  • “It must be account-wide. I would gladly buy something. But as it is now, I won’t spend a dime on the game.”
  • “The game is fun, but man, the money grab is so super aggressive. No wonder it has been banned in some European countries.”
  • “I’ve spent about $1,000 over the years in Hearthstone, and if I enjoy Diablo Immortal, I would definitely support it. But I won’t spend money just to play it on one character on one server.”

One user, whom many agree with, is particularly disappointed. He states: This is a “whole new level of greed,” Blizzard needs to address this as soon as possible.

As a customer, one must set an example here.

The problem might also be so significant because many plan to switch classes later:

Players are complaining about loot boxes in the MMORPG Lost Ark – For skins with better stats, you pay up to €530

Mark Sellner Mark Sellner Reading time 4 minutes

The MMORPG Lost Ark has faced criticism since its release for relying on Pay2Win mechanics to a certain extent. While that has been up for discussion, a new loot box system is coming that can cost you up to €530 for skins with tangible benefits. We at MeinMMO summarize.

What is the situation? On June 1st, the developers and publishers of Lost Ark showed the roadmap for the upcoming months. In addition to some cool announcements, a system similar to loot boxes for skins and costumes is also being introduced. It’s called Yoz’s Jar and doesn’t sound so bad at first glance.

It gives you the opportunity to recycle skins you no longer want. In return, you receive a material and can roll a new skin by contributing some blue crystals. However, upon closer inspection, the system has several issues, and the best outfits can cost you up to €530. But one thing at a time.

What are legendary skins? The new system introduces some epic and also two legendary skins for each class. The legendary skins are newcomers, as previously only epic costumes were available in our version.

Like the epic outfits, the legendary skins provide solid bonuses to your stats, and they are even slightly higher than usual. Compared to the epic versions, you receive about 1% more stats per equipment piece.

This adds up to 4% for the entire armor, resulting in approximately 1.9% more overall damage, as user birkholz explains on reddit.

This video gives you an insight into the endgame of Lost Ark:

Start video
Everything you need to know about Lost Ark’s endgame – in the video

Behind the new mechanic are loot boxes

How does Yoz’s Jar work exactly? If you have a skin that you no longer want, you can disassemble it in Yoz’s Jar. For this, you will receive 7 pieces of fabric. You can basically disassemble any skin that somehow comes from the cash shop of Lost Ark. Theoretically, it would even be possible to buy costumes from the market for gold and then disassemble them.

Once you have collected a total of 14 pieces of fabric, Yoz’s Jar can be used. You buy the vessel additionally for 100 blue crystals and can then roll a new skin randomly from the 14 fabric. Various epic, as well as the new legendary skins, are available for selection. You cannot influence which one you get.

How do we get to €530 per set? Don’t be alarmed, but now we need a bit of math. Each individual skin gives you 7 fabric when disassembled. A complete set of weapon, helmet, shoes, and top gives you a total of 28 fabric. Such a set currently costs around €22 on the western servers. You will also need the jar itself for 100 blue crystals, which you can buy with gold, but in real money, that’s about €2.30 per attempt.

If we assume that you only buy the skins to reroll and get legendary skins, a single attempt at the legendary outfit costs €13.30. If you have no luck, you can directly disassemble the skin you received and save 7 pieces of fabric. Each additional attempt then costs you “only” €7.80.

The roadmap trailer shows these skins. You can convince yourself whether they are worth the money:

A look at the new skins was already given in the roadmap

How rare are the outfits? The legendary outfits come in two colors and, at least in Korea and Russia, each have a 5% chance to drop from the jar (via reddit). Overall, you have a 10% chance for a legendary skin. With average luck, each part of the set costs you €83.50 if you recycle every skin you draw.

So for a complete set, you would spend an average of €334, if you really dismantle every skin directly. If you don’t do that and keep all the epic skins you get while rolling, each attempt will cost you €13.30. Which, based on continued average luck, amounts to €532 for a complete legendary set.

“We should be more upset”

How does the community react? Initially, only a little bit. In the roadmap, the concept of the system was only briefly mentioned and hardly explained in detail. It was only when some experienced players from the Korean and Russian servers agreed to explain the jar in detail on reddit that the anger in the community grew.

The largest reddit thread on the topic is only 20 hours old and already has over 4,000 upvotes. It explains the situation in more detail and encourages discussion, as it bears the title “We should be more upset”. Considering the over 1,500 comments, it has likely achieved its goal, as the mood is anything but good.

Also, the thread linked above by birkholz, which outlines the costs for the skins in more detail, currently has 507 comments and paints a similar picture of sentiment. While some say that the 2% more damage wouldn’t make any difference, the hardcore community is particularly upset.

More about Lost Ark on MeinMMO

What do the fans say? As usual, we would like to share some of the comments to clarify the mood:

  • redelectrions sarcastically writes (via reddit): “I think you can only charge $400 a day on Steam for Lost Ark, right? But an email to Steam will take care of that.”
  • Javrixx says (via reddit): “Thanks for the explanations. I really love this game, but this stuff is very disappointing.”
  • Ikikaera says (via reddit): “Personally, I’m not really interested in the system. I can just farm and buy the legendary skins with gold. But I completely understand how much trouble this concept could bring.”
  • Atheistium writes (via reddit): “In Russia, I spent over $800 until I had a legendary set that actually matched. I can’t justify that in any way, and I hope they revise the system.”

What do you think of the new Yoz’s Jar system? Will you want a legendary skin and rely on your luck and money? Or will you just farm gold for a while to buy the skins from the market when they are available? Feel free to let us know in the comments here at MeinMMO.

MeinMMO editor Alexander Leitsch says: An MMORPG is so heavily Pay2Win that I can only laugh at criticism of Lost Ark and Black Desert.

Shooter developer explains why new items should always be too strong

Max Handwerk Max Handwerk Reading time 4 minutes

Do you know that feeling? A new weapon appears in your game, and it feels way too strong. A developer from Apex Legends recently offered an interesting insight into why that is.

For many players, it’s not an unusual situation: Due to numerous updates and patches, weapons, items, or even characters in live-service games undergo constant revisions.

Moreover, it often happens that completely new elements are introduced into the game – everything should remain fresh and exciting.

However, not every novelty or change is immediately well-received by players. Because often, new weapons simply feel way too strong and disrupt the usual gameplay. There are examples of this everywhere, from Destiny 2 to Fortnite to Apex Legends.

That sounds annoying at first, but it can certainly have its reasoning. On Reddit, John Larson, a live balance designer for the Battle Royale Apex Legends, commented on this topic and explained how this can happen.

“Better to release strong and nerf it than weak and buff it.”

This is the situation: In the Apex Legends subreddit, there was a general discussion about the C.A.R. SMG, which was introduced a few months ago and, among other things, became the first Apex weapon ever to have the ability to use multiple ammunition types at once. This gave it a certain flexibility and strength.

In the discussion, a user criticized that the SMG is a result of “power creep”, meaning the increasing strength of new weapons, and that it should have been better balanced. Thereupon, the developer responded under the username “RSPN_JayBiebs” with a more detailed insight (via reddit).

This is what the developer says: In his post, Larson explains that during the final tuning phase before the release of a new weapon, they often lean towards the strong side for two reasons:

  • New things should be fun.
  • If they are fun, players will use them more often.

The second point is important for developers: “This is very helpful in diagnosing the specific fun/strength/frustration factors that occur when the new gameplay element is tried by millions of players in live play,” Larson explains, referring to the SMG’s ability to use multiple ammunition types: “I would rather release it strong and nerf it than release it weak and buff it.”

Now, there are many possibilities – such as buffing the R99, nerfing the CAR, or even a complete overhaul of the SMG classes. But they also have to see how this will be received by the player base.

More about shooters on MeinMMO:

“Ultimately, we have to make balancing decisions with an eye on the long-term health of the game,” Larson explains: “As a live balance designer and daily player, I have to personally make concessions when thinking about what needs to be addressed now or in the next season or in three seasons. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, and I’m pretty satisfied with the development of the CAR.”

What do you think about the topic? Can you understand the “strong” new weapons – or would you prefer something different? Tell us in the comments.

In general, Apex Legends is a game that is often subject to changes. And apparently successfully: Recently, the shooter gathered a lot of players on Steam and reached a new record.

That makes sense because if a new element isn’t fun, players might ignore it – and then developers won’t get any new data.

New weapons need to convince players first: Larson emphasizes that it’s important that the new gameplay mechanic really makes sense – change for the sake of change is “blah”. He also addresses the issue of power creep, which is the problem that constantly introducing “better” new weapons raises the bar higher and higher:

When it comes to power creep, this is an endless “battle”, if you will. New legends/items need to be sexy and strong to disrupt the meta. The new has to be particularly attractive to make us break away from the familiar. In a competitive game, I naturally tend to stick with what I am familiar with and what offers me the greatest chances of success, which is often what I have played most often.

(via reddit)

This particular point – that players simply don’t have a reason to change their established gameplay – is something that developers want to prevent. They then observe the situation and watch how players warm up to the new features.

And then they ask the next questions. Larson relates this to the C.A.R. SMG and another SMG, the R99: “Now that players have become acquainted with the CAR, how is the best way to handle something like the R99? It is one of the main weapons in Apex and I agree that the CAR casts it in the shadow in some ways,” says the developer.

Now, there are many possibilities – such as buffing the R99, nerfing the CAR, or even a complete overhaul of the SMG classes. But they also have to see how this will be received by the player base.

A new computer weighs more than 2 cars and requires thousands of liters of water per minute – What can this device do?

Benedikt Schlotmann Benedikt Schlotmann Reading time 2 minutes

A company has introduced a new computer. In comparison, almost any gaming PC looks cute. What is inside the computer that weighs more than 3 tons?

The Oak Ridge National Laboratory has unveiled a computer of superlatives. It is hardly comparable to our gaming systems in terms of construction and performance. Nevertheless, it is impressive what is inside the ‘Frontier’.

New computer weighs more than 3 tons and needs 300,000 liters of water per minute

What is inside the computer? The computer from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory uses processors from AMD. Specifically, Epyc processors with 64 cores that clock at 2 GHz are used. The computer offers a total of 8,730,112 computing cores.

In many gaming PCs, processors with an average of 4 to 6 cores are used. The computer achieves a performance of 1.102 exaflops/s. That is a number that is hard to imagine; it is that huge. Flops describe the number of floating-point calculations that a processor can perform. An exaflop is one trillion floating-point calculations per second (ExaFLOPS = 10 to the power of 18 FLOPS).

The PS5, in comparison, achieves 10.15 teraflops, and a GeForce RTX 3080 achieves 29.8 teraflops. Both the graphics card and the console, however, are far from the performance of the supercomputer.

The developers also state that the computer weighs more than 30,000 kilograms and requires around 300,000 liters of water per minute for cooling. In comparison: Gaming PCs rarely exceed 20 kg, and a computer typically uses 2 to 3 liters of liquid when using water cooling.

Frontier requires 7,300 square meters of space, which is not insignificant. A standard football field (68m x 105m) has an area of 7,140 sqm.

Significantly less space is needed for a gaming PC, which you can place on legs on your desk. Whether you really want that and what it costs in the end, you can read in our article:

How fast are comparable computers? The supercomputer ‘Frontier’ is currently considered the most powerful supercomputer in the world according to TOP500 (via top500.org). This list includes all fast computers. Previously, the supercomputer Fugaku from Japan led the top list.

Such supercomputers are used exclusively for professional purposes

What do you need so much computing power for? Such supercomputers or high-performance PCs have various areas of application. They are mainly used in research, where performance is needed for simulations, for example.

For example, their performance is used for weather predictions, for discovering oil and gas reserves, or for complex calculations in astrophysics or fusion research.

Streamer uses the trial ‘Depp vs. Heard’ for his success – now he is ashamed of it

Sayumi (Lena) Sayumi (Lena) Reading time 3 minutes

The court trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard made huge waves on the internet. Hundreds of thousands of viewers followed the case through various livestreams. YouTube streamer Ludwig “Ludwig” Ahgren recently admitted that he used the trial for content.

Many Twitch and YouTube streamers took advantage of the live broadcast of the court trial between Depp and Heard. They also showed the stream on their channels and watched it together with their viewers while interspersing their own reactions.

The six-week event made such a big splash that it became almost the new meta on Twitch alongside pool and cooking streams. Now, on June 1, the trial came to an end, and the day after, Ludwig spoke about accusations from his community.

A clip on Twitch also caused a stir. In our video, you can learn the story of the platform’s most popular clip:

Twitch: This is the quirky story behind the most popular clip of all time

“That’s sad for me to see, that’s embarrassing”

What was the trial about? Broadly speaking, it was supposed to clarify who abused whom in the marriage between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard. Various pieces of evidence and even wild audio recordings were shared during the trial. On June 1, the trial ended with Depp winning.

What did Ludwig say? The streamer was accused of using the court trial for content. He did not deny this and openly stated, “I used this case for content.” He then referred to his YouTube statistics, which revealed how many viewers watched his streams.

Ludwig showed that his most successful YouTube stream peaked at 85,546 viewers. He topped this record with the last live broadcast of the trial, achieving 87,538 viewers. He then exclaimed, “That’s sad for me to see, that’s embarrassing!”

Furthermore, he admitted that he did not stream the case to give it more attention but to benefit from it and compared himself to a car. People would have followed the trial anyway, so they simply “sat in his car” and followed the spectacle together with him.

You can see Ludwig’s entire statement in this video:

He did praise himself a little bit: “Maybe this is a bit cheeky, but of all the vehicles you could have chosen, this car was probably not so bad.” Ludwig argued that he tried to comment on the court trial “normally,” without insulting Amber Heard or showing a counter in the stream that counted how many times she cried.

However, Ludwig concluded: “Maybe it was wrong of me to address it at all. Selfishly, I grew from it. You know. And maybe that’s a bad thing.”

Other streamers who followed “Depp vs. Heard”

Even well-known Twitch streamers like xQc, Asmongold, and Pokimane sat with their audiences watching the live broadcast from the courtroom. Particularly the MMORPG streamer Asmongold covered the trial extensively and very actively.

This is what Asmongold’s YouTube channel looks like.

He also regularly shared reactions on his YouTube channel and filled it with them. The videos often garnered more clicks than his MMORPG videos, often reaching at least 500,000 to 1 million views.

On the last day of the trial, Asmongold had an average of 147,500 viewers, with a peak of 448,161 concurrent viewers. That’s more than some Nintendo Direct or PlayStation presentations generated in the past.

Players tear apart new MMORPG with anime setting – “Really, warns people about the game”

Mark Sellner Mark Sellner Reading time 4 minutes

On May 25th the MMORPG Ni No Kuni: Cross Worlds (PC, Android, iOS) was released in the western market and has since endured a heavy shitstorm. This mainly revolves around the controversial business model of the title. We at MeinMMO summarize.

What kind of game is this? Ni No Kuni: Cross Worlds is an MMORPG that you can play on both your smartphones and your PC. It draws upon the setting of the popular “Ni No Kuni” IP and lets you dive into an anime fantasy world.

The game was already released in 2019 in the Asian market and was actually well received by players there. The website SensorTower even reports revenues of over 100 million dollars in the first 11 days of the anime MMORPG (via sensortower.com).

Features of the game include:

  • An open world in the well-known Ni No Kuni universe
  • A story where you once again have to save the world
  • Housing, where you can also plant your own plants
  • PvE and PvP content
  • An auto-play and auto-walk function, which is however not in use during bosses
  • The possibility to earn money with the game due to Play2Earn
  • 5 different classes with a comparatively static action combat system

Here you can see gameplay from the MMORPG

However, in the West, the game is not received well at all. This is partly due to the fact that two different cryptocurrencies are in use, Pay2Win aspects play a significant role in PvP, and NFTs are set to be introduced into the MMORPG later this year.

Publisher promises “Endless Possibilities” – Angering the fanbase

What is the problem with the game? Now the game is on the market for us and receives, at least in the PlayStore and AppStore, relatively positive reviews. But if you take a look at the communities on Reddit and other reports, it quickly becomes clear that things are not as they seem.

People are primarily upset about the massive use of Pay2Win and cryptocurrencies in Ni No Kuni: Cross Worlds. This goes as far as being able to purchase one of the best armors directly in the shop with one of the two currencies, completely without loot boxes or anything similar. Since there is no normalized PvP, this actually gives you an advantage even in that area.

It gets even worse when you realize that the second cryptocurrency in Ni No Kuni: Cross Worlds can only be earned in PvP, unlike the first which can be earned through quests. This makes many fans angry. Especially because these mechanics were not advertised beforehand. Therefore, some people accuse the game of deliberately concealing these crypto mechanics.

Only the formulas for calculating the exchange rates of the two currencies do not give a clear impression (via marblex.io).

The community is angry: But not only the use of cryptocurrencies faces resistance from the community. In a press conference in April, the publisher NetMarble announced that they will also integrate NFTs into the MMORPG later this year (via netmarble.com).

A publisher-wide currency called MBX is set to come, which you can earn and spend in several of the publisher’s games. So far, the currency is only represented in the game A3: Still Alive, but it is supposed to come to Ni No Kuni: Cross Worlds and Monsters Arena later this year.

Although it is not yet clear how the NFT integration will look in the game, it already leaves a bad impression on fans. They are warning on Reddit about the game and are mostly angry, but also sad about the path the publisher is taking with the MMORPG.

“Why are they doing this to the brand?”

What are the fans saying? Especially in the threads on Reddit, fans of the franchise are very disappointed. Many were looking forward to another great Ni No Kuni game. The previous titles of the IP were really well received. An MMORPG adaptation had raised great hopes, which have now faded for many.

Some people are speaking up who are enjoying the game and say that you can ignore all these factors if you just focus on the PvE. But these voices are clearly in the minority.

Many also harbor anger towards the publisher NetMarble. A fan even writes “Wow, this time NetMarble is early. They usually wait a few months before revealing that their games are Pay2Win.” The post gets 347 upvotes on Reddit and much support, accurately reflecting the general mood.

Eccentric strategy nerd from German gaming magazine is now a professional Twitch streamer

Benedict Grothaus Benedict Grothaus Reading time 3 minutes

A popular content creator is now fully entering the world of Twitch streaming after impressive successes. And the best part: MeinMMO knows him personally! We introduce you to our GameStar colleague Maurice Weber.

Who is this about?

  • Maurice Weber started as an editor at GameStar and has now fully entered as a streamer on Twitch with his own channel.
  • Already at GameStar, Maurice made a name for himself as a personality that he now transfers to live streaming.
  • He is especially known for his relaxed, often cheeky manner and his affinity for strategy games.

Who were the first successful streamers on Twitch?

Start video
Twitch: Who were actually the first successful streamers?

This is the streamer: Maurice Weber has actually been on Twitch for some time. With his own Twitch channel, he is now also part of the Webedia network, which includes MeinMMO.

If you often visit the joint Twitch channel of GameStar, GamePro, and MeinMMO, MAX – Monsters And Explosions, you may already know Maurice. He often appears as a host and recurring face, entertaining with his jokes and opinions.

Also at Find Your Next Game, the joint event of GameStar, GamePro, and MeinMMO, Maurice is one of the fixed stars. Here, together with our team of hosts, he introduces new games for you.

Originally, Maurice was an editor at GameStar and still appears there when possible. He started at GameStar in 2012 as an intern, then in 2015 as a trainee. Later, he became a video producer and acquired numerous skills that still help him today.

Now he is a professional Twitch streamer. And his Twitch stats are impressive. According to Twitchtracker, Maurice has:

  • streamed for 379 hours
  • reached a total of 46,720 followers
  • 11,781 peak viewers
  • 1,246 average viewers

More about Twitch on MeinMMO:

What makes him so special? Maurice is known for his eloquence and also a good dose of cynicism. He always has a strong statement ready and doesn’t hold back on sharp remarks.

When I told him in his stream that I would write about him, he said in his refreshingly modest way: ‘I always enjoy when word spreads about my rising world domination, of course!’

His ability to entertain his viewers so well is partly due to the fact that he combines the editorial know-how of an editor with the calmness of a show master. Dawid Hallmann, the Director Gaming of Webedia and the founder of MeinMMO, explains:

Maurice brings with him royal prerequisites to stand out as a creator from the crowd and become one of the biggest on Twitch. He combines a uniquely engaging and entertaining character with a highly developed editorial expertise that he built up as a journalist at GameStar.

What does Maurice show? Maurice Weber has also made a name for himself as a lover of a genre that caters to a niche: real-time and turn-based strategy. Recurring titles on his channel include Crusader Kings 3, Age of Empires, and recently also Elden Ring.

The ranking game is a popular format.

Especially the events he organizes with other major streamers from the German-speaking area regularly attract tens of thousands of viewers. Particularly well known is: the ranking game, where he plays Crusader Kings 3 in full costume with streamers like Shurjoka, fully immersed in medieval drama.

You can now regularly see content on Maurice’s channel on many different games and enjoy his relaxed manner. MeinMMO wishes you good luck!

Players complain about the PC beta of Diablo Immortal – „The PC version is a joke“

Maik Schneider Maik Schneider Reading time 3 minutes

Just over 24 hours after the release on iOS and Android, the PC version of Diablo Immortal came to the Battle.net launcher. The version launches as a beta and fails to convince many fans – we showcase the problems and developer statements regarding the PC version on MeinMMO.

Diablo Immortal is a complete Diablo game for mobile. At the end of April came the surprise – the new action RPG is also coming to PC.

However, the version for PC has issues. Missing settings options, control problems, and stress when connecting controllers: Many players believe there is still a lot to catch up on for the PC.

With which errors some players struggle and what the developers say about the release of the PC version, you will find out here on MeinMMO.

You can find an overview of the 6 classes with gameplay in our video:

Diablo Immortal: Stress with the PC Version

What problems does the PC version cause? Looking shortly after the release at reddit or the official Blizzard forum, it quickly becomes clear that there is a lot of frustration surrounding the state of the PC beta of Diablo Immortal – alongside the criticism of character-bound microtransactions.

For example, there is the reddit thread “The PC version is a joke” with over 200 comments (via reddit).

The thread creator lists the following problems:

  • No UI adjustments possible
  • No options for resolution
  • Problems with inventory management
  • UI controls are awful
  • No details when hovering over UI elements with the mouse

In the thread, there is a lot of support for this, but also considerable backlash. Commentators point out that this is a beta version for PC. This group questions where the high expectations for the beta come from, for a PC port of a mobile game.

Another major problem is considered to be the controls – there are issues with mouse and keyboard, but also the controller support has problems.

With the mouse, certain elements like portals or quest interactions are hard to interact with, and also in combat, selecting enemies for primary attacks in some cases is a matter of luck.

With controller support, there are problems because the stick control is sometimes extremely inaccurate. The cursor often goes far past the target or there is stick drift.

However, this also depends on your controller – we also had issues in the editorial office with controllers that use an Xbox control scheme. PlayStation controllers did not have this problem. A solution can also be found on reddit (via reddit).

The perfect start in Diablo Immortal:

Developers say: It’s a beta and mobile comes first

What do the developers say about this? Even before the release, Game Director Wyatt Cheng tried to manage expectations for the PC release. He emphasized even then: It is a beta for the PC port – the focus is clearly on the mobile version.

Cheng had already predicted that …

  • Bugs will occur in the PC beta
  • There may be problems with the controls
  • There will be no UI scaling at launch

The goal of the PC version is to deliver a better experience than using emulators that bring the mobile game to PC through emulation. It is not meant to be a PC Diablo.

Actual bugs and errors, like the issue with controllers, will certainly get a fix soon. But for “Quality of Life” changes, the mobile version takes precedence, and it remains to be seen how far the developers will go to accommodate players.

What are your experiences in this regard? Are you also frustrated with the PC version, or do you think perhaps the expectations for the beta are partly too high? Feel free to leave us a comment on the topic.

FIFA 22: Players looking for Prime Gaming Pack 8 – This is what Amazon says about the delay

Max Handwerk Max Handwerk Reading time 2 minutes

In FIFA 22 the Prime Gaming Pack 8 is still missing after several weeks of delay. What is the status of the free packs?

What is the Prime Gaming Pack? For some time now, Prime Gaming members can secure a so-called “Prime Gaming Pack” once a month. There are no additional costs if you have a membership, and it can then be redeemed in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team.

In the past, these packs often contained a loan player, some gold cards, and even player picks. So a nice addition when you want to improve your team in Ultimate Team.

However, the current “Prime Gaming Pack 8” has been missing for several weeks.

Amazon and EA are investigating the issue with the Prime Gaming Pack

This is the status: So far, the Prime Gaming Pack 8, which was supposed to be released in May, is still unavailable. In fact, FIFA 22 cannot be accessed at all when searching for it on the Prime Gaming site. Only if you go through Google Search can you find the page – and there still the announcement that the eighth pack will be “available soon.”

Meanwhile, both Amazon and EA have addressed the issue via social media. However, there is still no new timing for the release.

This is what Amazon and EA say: Through the official “Prime Gaming” account on Twitter, Amazon has reached out to the waiting players. They write there: “To all FIFA 22 players, unfortunately, the May Prime Gaming Pack has been delayed while the team investigates an issue. We are working on it and will keep you updated.”

EA also seems to be working on the problem but has no solution yet. The current update from the official “EA Help” account on Twitter regarding this states: “There was a technical issue that has prevented the release of Pack #8. Please continue to check the Prime page to see when it will be added. As of now, we have no date or time for you” (via Twitter).

It seems to be a bigger problem that is not easily solved. Players could really use any extra pack right now, during the TOTS event.

Because firstly, they give a small chance to pull a TOTS player, and secondly, they can provide cards to solve one of the many event SBCs.

As soon as it is known when the new pack will be released, we will keep you updated here.

Otherwise, you can still secure rewards through the current weekly objectives. However, some players are complaining that the tasks in FIFA 22 are simply too extensive.

LoL: 21-year-old breaks through in April, gets fired in May – Now his life is falling apart

Schuhmann Schuhmann Reading time 4 minutes

21-year-old Australian Jonah “Isles” Rosario played professionally in the playoffs of League of Legends for Cloud9, which is considered one of the best teams in the USA, in April 2022. However, the playoffs did not go well. Isles was fired in May – now his life in the USA is at risk of collapsing: Without a job, he cannot stay in the country. He has put down roots in the USA, where he has a cat and a girlfriend.

Who is Isles?

  • Jonah “Isles” Rosario is an Australian who made a name for himself in the “Oceanic” region as a teenager. He even qualified for the Worlds 2020. Australia is a small region in LoL, but still sends a team to the Worlds.
  • At the end of 2020, during the Corona pandemic, Isles made the move to the academy team of one of the best US teams, Cloud9, as a young support talent. Isles also had the opportunity to switch to a weaker team and play directly in the professional league, but he wanted to take his time after another Australian failed to make the jump “directly to the LCS”.
  • At Cloud9, he first got a spot on the academy team in 2020 and played there for a year.

von Schuhmann

In April 2022, the breakthrough came – After 2 years in the USA

This was his breakthrough: At the end of 2021, Cloud9 made a bold fresh start. A new coach wanted to expand the roster: As part of this plan, Isles was brought up from the academy team and allowed to play on the professional team, sharing the spot as a supporter with the South Korean Winsome. The Korean Winsome was in the starting lineup, but Isles was used in training matches, the scrims, and occasionally got a chance to play for real.

His contract was extended until 2024.

Indeed, Isles was there when it mattered. Things were not going well with Winsome in the playoffs; communication with the South Korean proved to be difficult, and Cloud9 gave Isles a chance: In his 5th game as a pro, he played in a playoff match for Cloud9, did well, and secured victory for his team on a big stage. In an interview with Dexerto, he says:

„You can hear the crowd screaming. It’s a rush. It feels great when that happens.”

After giving Isles a chance as a pro, he performed. His coach said about him: With Isles as a supporter, the team would play better in training matches, and communication flowed smoother. On April 8, Cloud9 announced: Isles would now replace Winsome as the starting supporter (via inven).

With Isles instead of Winsome in the lineup, Cloud9 was able to win a playoff series against the Golden Guardians even 3-0. With champions like Leona and Lux, Isles delivered impressive statistics: On April 10, 2022, it seemed as if Isles was finally the new supporter for one of the best teams in the USA.

But the following week, on April 17, they had to face Evil Geniuses, the team that later became champions. Cloud9 was eliminated from the playoffs 0-3, and suddenly everything was different.

Tyler1 does not have such worries as a Twitch streamer; his career is secure:

A month after the breakthrough, the dismissal came

This was the end: As Isles says, he was dismissed in May 2022 without much explanation along with Park “Summit” Woo-tae and the other supporter Kim “Winsome” Dong-keon.

The manager told me basically that C9 wanted to make a change, and that was pretty much it. They didn’t give me any further information – actually just said that they wanted to make a move. I wasn’t really explained why exactly. There was no farewell talk with a coach or anything like that.

Since the dismissal comes after half a season and Isles is now teamless in the midst of the LoL year, he views his chances of finding a new job in the US critically. Isles is upset, having just received the chance to prove himself in the LCS, and believes he can keep up well.

The CEO of Cloud9 does not give him much hope. He stated on Twitter that they had tried to give the 3 players away for free to other teams – but no one wanted Isles or the two South Koreans.

On May 3 – just a month after things were going well, his career was over.

Without a job, Isles’ visa is expiring – the countdown is ticking

This is now Isles’ problem: Without a job in the USA, he cannot stay in the country. He has already put down roots in the USA, has a girlfriend in the USA and a cat named Penny. He is reluctant to ship her halfway across the world to Australia.

On May 14, his visa expires – then he has 30 days left to find a new team, the 21-year-old writes on Twitter. He will look at every offer from every region, he writes. Although he obviously prefers to play for a US team.

As Dexerto writes, he has to vacate his apartment as he can no longer afford it.

As Isles says, his visa expires on May 14. Then he has 30 days left to find a new team.

Isles seems to be struggling with his situation. He is considering how his career would have gone if he had decided for a starting spot in the LCS instead of spending a year in the academy team.

He is also upset that he only had such a short time to play professionally and to make a name for himself:

I think I should have replaced Winsome after 4 weeks if people had looked more closely at the training matches. I think they were too hesitant to make a decision, and the people with the most power didn’t necessarily have the greatest knowledge of the situation.

Isles

What lies behind it: Isles’ example shows how unstable and difficult life can be as a esports player. Ultimately, a few games and distant forces determine the well-being of the young player. At his age and with such a short career, Isles had no opportunity to build financial reserves to absorb such a setback.

The peak of his life as an athlete and the defeat that led to his dismissal were only 7 days apart. The consequences are huge, and the future prospects seem bleak:

It seems increasingly attractive for teams to keep the next 19-year-old and start “fresh” rather than to recruit someone who has already gained some experience.

A colleague of Isles has gone through a similar fate:
