The famous German streamer Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris is known for his openness on Twitch. He has no problem farting into his microphone or talking about intimate topics. In a stream, MontanaBlack cleverly demonstrates how to bypass Twitch’s guidelines while still discussing sensitive subjects: One uses car analogies.
What experiences does MontanaBlack have with Twitch bans?
His longest ban lasted 33 days, after he chased women in Malta with grunting noises and observed another lady from a balcony with his camera.
What do Twitch’s guidelines say? The platform does not allow overly revealing outfits or any explicit sexual content in streams. Sexual content already includes re-enactments or obvious activities related to sex.
Twitch has now broadly formulated its guidelines regarding such topics and has created a list that contains examples that illustrate the exact prohibitions. It is prohibited to:
disseminate sexually explicit content
focus the camera on breasts, the genital area or the butt
simulate sexual acts or sexual stimulation
provide detailed descriptions of sexual acts
Previously, MontanaBlack had explicitly violated these rules with his insinuations in a stream. With the words “parking” and “backing up,” MontanaBlack now described his wild experiences in a way that allowed him to avoid a ban by Twitch.
Speaking of bans, another Twitch streamer did not take her ban very well:
As her daughter wishes for a cosplay wedding, the famous Hollywood actress Jamie Lee Curtis is set to appear as a character from World of Warcraft. However, in a talk show, she pretends to be unaware of her character, and the costume might become an issue. Find out all about the story here on MeinMMO!
Who is it about? The renowned Hollywood actress Jamie Lee Curtis (known among other things from Halloween and True Lies) recently appeared on the US late-night show Jimmy Kimmel Live. There, she also talked about her youngest daughter Ruby’s upcoming wedding. She and her fiancée wish for a “cosplay wedding.”
Ruby and Cynthia will marry in our garden in May, and I will perform the ceremony. It is a cosplay wedding. That means you wear a costume. You dress up as something.
Each guest would be assigned a role. According to reports, Jamie Lee Curtis is set to appear as the character Jaina Proudmoore from World of Warcraft.

How did she portray her role? However, in the show, the actress pretended that she had no idea what her daughter and future daughter-in-law had planned for her:
Ruby and Cynthia picked out my costume. Her name is Jaina Proudmoore. She is from…? Does anyone here know where she comes from? It’s a game? I don’t know, it’s a game. She is an admiral there.
Apparently, the actress seems to have no idea who she is portraying and doesn’t even know the name of the associated game.
However, that seems more like a cheeky deception and a trollish joke. Because Jamie Lee Curtis has appeared in cosplay several times before. This includes a undead cosplay in 2015 at BlizzCon and in 2016 she attended the premiere of the Warcraft film as a green orc shaman.
So it’s extremely unlikely that she doesn’t know what World of Warcraft is. Also, knowing Jaina’s title as Lord Admiral of Kul Tiras suggests that she knows exactly who she is supposed to portray.
These are the problems with the costume: So it seems unlikely that Jamie Lee Curtis would embarrass herself at the wedding and not know who or what she represents.
Another problem is more obvious. Since Jamie Lee Curtis does not want or cannot make the costume herself, she ordered it from a seamstress on the internet platform Etsy.
This person lives and works in Russia, and therefore it could become problematic to receive the costume in time for the wedding in May due to the current trade sanctions.
Another hint at Jamie Lee Curtis’s gaming affinity is her role in the upcoming Borderlands film. There she is set to play the role of the eccentric and cynical scientist Dr. Tannis.

Groups in Lost Ark are useful for many game contents. But how can you leave them? We at MeinMMO will show you how to do that.
A multiplayer game like Lost Ark is much more fun in a group. For newcomers, it is also advisable to be in a group with experienced players.
A group consists of at least two and a maximum of four players, including you. It is displayed on the left side of the screen.
How do I leave a group? To leave a group, press Ctrl and right-click on your name in the group list on the left side of the screen. There you can choose “Leave group”.
If there are only two members in the group and you leave, you will dissolve it.
If you are the group leader and leave the group, another member will automatically be made leader. You can also select a specific person to make them the group leader. This is also done by Ctrl+Right-Click+Player Name.
Alternatively, you can type /leave or /leaveparty in the chat to exit the group.
How do I create a group? To add a player to the group, you need to hold down the Ctrl key and right-click on the character. Now you can send a group invitation. The player will receive an invitation in the lower right that they must confirm.
If you have already added someone as a friend, you can also right-click on that person in your friends list to invite them to the group.
Alternatively, you can also type /invite [character name] in the chat to invite someone.
Do you prefer to play in a group in Lost Ark, or do you prefer to play alone? Do you prefer to create groups with friends and chat on Discord, or are random players also acceptable to you? Have you completed raids or dungeons in a group? Feel free to let us know in the comments here on MeinMMO!

The Community Day events in Pokémon GO will only be active for 3 hours starting in April. Niantic stated that players wanted this change. The Game Director explained the decision in more detail on Twitter, and the community isn’t quite buying the reasons.
This raised many questions in the community, which is why Michael Steranka addressed it again on Twitter and revealed more details about the decision
Players say they simply can’t believe the reasoning
We show you here what new statements there are from the developers and what discussions this leads to.
What led to the shorter C-Days?
What you need to know: Before the COVID-19 bonuses, Community Days in Pokémon GO already lasted only 3 hours. At the beginning of the pandemic, the event time was doubled. Players who started with Pokémon GO in the last 2 years do not know it differently.
These are the new details: After the interview with Michael Steranka was published, he explained, “One of the reasons that prompted us to reassess the format of Community Day was the requests from trainers to revert to three hours” and “less than 5% of players participate in a Community Day for longer than 3 hours”, trainers wanted more information on this. On Twitter, user JreSeawolf, who is well known in the community of TheSilphroad, speaks to Niantic and directly to Steranka as the voice of the community.
JreSeawolf thoroughly addresses all the mentioned concerns and states, among other things, that the “5%” data is being misinterpreted. “The 5% are probably the players who only want to play for 3 hours” (via Twitter.com). He asks the Pokémon GO team to reconsider this decision.
In response, Michael Steranka explains in several tweets:
Hey @JreSeawolf – thanks for the day and for the honest feedback on this article. There were a few things I mentioned in this interview that unfortunately did not make it into the final story, but I’m happy to share them here to provide full context:
One of the reasons that prompted us to rethink the format of Community Day was the request of the trainers to shorten it to 3 hours. After we received this feedback, we looked at our data and found that less than 5 percent of players participated in Community Days for longer than 3 hours.
This number drops to less than 2 percent for sessions of 4 hours or more. Furthermore, we were shocked when we compared the 6-hour Community Days with the 3-hour Community Day Classic and found the participations to be almost identical.
It became clear that while it is less convenient, if announced in time, trainers can plan for the 3-hour Community Days and participate just as often as with the 6-hour ones.
We really want to make this event as good as possible, and we are very much looking forward to creating a more focused experience where trainers can meet in the real world while still earning the same amount of rewards in half the time.
This is a test to see how things develop, but we hope that trainers will agree that these changes are for the best when they participate in the upcoming Community Day in April.
Also, I would love to meet up with you for a drink and chat a bit! But until then, I would like to have a call with you to discuss more about it if you’d like. Send me a DM if you’re interested.
“You don’t open up a fast food restaurant for only 20 minutes a day”
This is the problem for trainers: The reasoning behind the shortening of Community Day does not sit well with trainers. They cannot get past the logic.
In a reddit thread discussing Steranka’s recent tweets, user mason240 writes: “I think I need to state the obvious first. I don’t buy this and it makes no sense at all.” He refers to the statement that trainers supposedly requested the shorter Community Days. “Let’s say you always played the Community Days from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Why would it bother you if they run for 6 hours?”
Moreover, trainers keep in mind that the Community Day in April is currently just a test, along with the special circumstances of the test.
Past Community Days featured Sandan, Hoppspross, and Seemops. Pokémon that have been available in the game for a long time
The Community Day in April features Velursi, a brand new Pokémon that will debut at the event. Furthermore, evolving it requires 400 candies, which means many Pokémon need to be caught
Now trainers believe that these special circumstances will distort the test results and that the release of the new Pokémon will artificially inflate participation.
“This is a poorly designed test (that might even be intentional). Velursi is already a far more desirable CD candidate than the previous ones and a perfect FOMO machine [FOMO stands for Fear of Missing Out]. The introduction of a brand new Pokémon family (for CDs for the very first time) – requiring 400 candies to evolve – will already lead many players to play the full 3 hours, even though they usually wouldn’t, in order to develop one or more Kosturso. A better test would be to play a 3-hour CD with a similar candidate as a basis, such as Kleinstein or Sleima,” writes Teban 54 on reddit.
User milo4206 shows with two brilliant examples why Niantic’s reasoning is so incomprehensible.
Example 1: Gym owner: “We found that only 5% of our members spend longer than an hour working out. Therefore, we will now open the gym for only one hour per day.”
Example 2: Fast food chain owner: “We found that only 5% of our customers spend longer than 20 minutes in the store, so we will only open our dining area for 20 minutes a day.”
What do you think about the changes to Community Days? Do you think it’s good to compress the event into a few hours so that you have the chance to meet more trainers, or do you think that the 6 hours for the event were appropriate? Let us know here on MeinMMO in the comments how you feel about the changes, and choose in our survey here in the article which format you prefer.

Fortnite has conjured up some crazy vehicles from the curtains. This time, however, players can even drive the Battle Bus and annihilate their enemies with it. We will show you how strong they are and where you can find them.
What are Battle Buses? When you play Fortnite for the first time, a friendly bus driver will chauffeur you across the map in his flying bus. This bus is called the Battle Bus and has been consistently used since Chapter 1 to transport players across the map.
For many fans of the BR shooter, the bus is considered a trademark of Fortnite. And now, as the Seven and IO are at war, players can support the construction of armored buses with their gold. With these, they can drive across the map and blast their enemies with heavy artillery.
A fundraising campaign has ended, and the bus can now be picked up by any player, which is why we show you how strong it is and whether it can stand up to a tank.
Bus versus Tank – Who wins?
How strong is the armored bus? Reddit user leoisdoggo has posted a fight between the bus and a tank. This shows you just how strong the bus really is:

As the driver, he drives through Tilted Towers to assess the situation. On the guns on the roof, his teammate is sitting. Both already spot a tank through audio visualization and immediately take aim.
User leoisdoggo uses a boost and rams the tank with full force. The tank remains unfazed and lands a huge shot on the bus. This explodes from the shot, and the bus can no longer be used.
Compared to the tank, the armored Battle Bus is a degraded form of a more mobile tank, with fewer health points but more speed.
The bus does well for ambushing enemies in open fields but poorly at taking damage. If building is reactivated, the bus will be able to hold its own better than the tank.
What can the bus do? The bus offers more space for passengers than regular vehicles. It can score with the following features:
Space for seven players including the driver
Equipped with a ramming mechanism
Two guns installed on the roof – cause more damage to vehicles
Gun above the driver fires slow projectiles, but of large caliber
Gun at the end of the bus fires fast projectiles of small caliber
Can even get a speed boost at the cost of high fuel consumption
Where can you find the bus? The first known bus is located in Sanctuary, in the Seven’s territory. More specimens will only appear in the further camps of the Seven when the necessary donation amount has been reached.
You can recognize the locations by the blue-marked spots on your map. These boundaries mark the territories of the respective factions.
What do you think of the modified buses? Do you find them better than tanks or do you prefer a strong tank? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Twitch has permanently banned the streamer Steven “Destiny” Bonnell II (33), as he reports. Destiny began his career in 2011 on Twitch as a streamer for StarCraft 2. Later, he became known as a prominent figure who often clashed with radical views. Destiny believes he was banned for his statement that transgender women should not compete against cis women in sports.
Who is Destiny?
Destiny began his career on Twitch in 2011. He left a job as a carpet cleaner to play StarCraft 2 on Twitch. Even back then, he was known for his rude and rough manner. He did not shy away from confrontation.
From 2016 onwards, Destiny increasingly became a streamer on Twitch who dealt with political and social issues. In 2020, he lost his partnership with Twitch when he said he would welcome it if “rednecks shot down idiotic protesters because they think they can burn down buildings.” This was interpreted as a “call to violence.”
Destiny has about 650,000 followers on Twitch and last streamed in front of about 2,850 viewers. Now he has faced a permanent ban, as he reports.

The 5 biggest Twitch bans that caused a lot of commotion
“Hateful Conduct”
What was Destiny banned for? Destiny says he received a message from Twitch stating that he was banned for “hateful conduct.” The ban is permanent. However, he does not know the exact reason (via youtube).
He sees his statement that transgender women should not compete against cis women in sports as a plausible reason for his permanent removal.
Previously, people had discussed on Reddit that Destiny might have been banned for broadcasting a conversation with an Alt-Right speaker who was banned on Twitch.
It is prohibited on Twitch to promote individuals who have been banned from Twitch. For a such a violation, GMHikaru was banned for 3 days. However, this behavior would likely not have led to a permanent ban.
Twitch Introduces Rule to Better Protect Minorities
What kind of rule is that? Twitch introduced a new guideline against “Hateful Conduct and Harassment” on December 9, 2020, to better protect the “community.” The rule was intended to protect members of the LGBTQIA+ and BiPoC community, who are disproportionately attacked. This is not accepted, Twitch said.
In terms of “hateful conduct,” it specifically states among the things that are prohibited (via twitch):
Calls to oppress, separate, or exclude people, including political, economic, and social marginalization/separation based on protected characteristics, including age. However, we allow the discussion of certain topics like immigration policy, voting rights for non-citizens, and participation in professional sports, as long as the content does not directly aim to disparage a protected characteristic.
Excerpt from Twitch rules
Streamer Continues on YouTube
What happens now? Destiny will likely just continue on YouTube – as other streamers who have been banned from Twitch.
The only way he could return to Twitch is if Twitch grants an appeal against the ban.
But it might be that Twitch has consciously decided to forgo the controversial views of the streamer in the future. He seems to be balancing precisely on those fine lines that the team has set about what can be discussed on Twitch and what should be kept silent. Maybe he did that one too many times and lost the balance.
Update March 28, 12:00 PM: New details about Destiny’s ban have come to light. It is now assumed that he was banned for a statement:
Revolution in FIFA? A supposed insider has revealed that FIFA 22 will likely be the last installment of the football series with the old name. Apparently, we will soon have to brace ourselves for “EA Sports Football Club” or “EA Sports FC”.
What’s going on? Since 1993, the FIFA series has been delivering fresh football experiences for gaming fans every year.
One important unique selling point of the series has always been licenses. Players, clubs, stadiums – FIFA always had the most licenses and was able to outmaneuver its competition time and again.
But at least with the “FIFA license,” that could soon come to an end. Several months ago, publisher EA confirmed that they were considering a name change and according to a leak, the new name has already been decided: EA Sports Football Club.
FIFA wanted influence and money – and now likely wants to develop themselves
Why is there a change? Back then, EA hinted that the FIFA association wanted to double the price of the name license. From 500 million dollars to 1 billion dollars for 4 years.
And it’s not about player or team licenses, but solely about the fact that “FIFA” can appear on the game cover – and the World Championship.
Furthermore, the football association apparently wanted more influence over the game and to restrict how EA can monetize the football title. Keyword card packs.
EA was also not happy that the FIFA association was exploring possibilities to award the license to others, after they had built up the brand as a publisher for so long.

FIFA 22: 10 helpful tips that will improve your gameplay
What does the current leak say? The leak comes from the podcast “GrubbSnax” hosted by the regularly well-informed gaming journalist Jeff Grubb.
Grubb says that EA no longer considers the license necessary. The series is so well known and popular that players will return to the game even without the “FIFA” on the game cover. It is a purely financial decision.
He also hints that the FIFA association may now be looking for partners to establish its own FIFA game. However, there are no concrete details on that.
Whether it will be “EA Sports Football Club” or “EA Sports FC” – it would amount to a small revolution in the football series.
So far, the information is still sparse and it’s unclear how it will go on with all the other licenses if the FIFA association actually starts its own game.
In Elden Ring players organize mysterious and somewhat secret PvP tournaments that are set up like fight clubs. Learn here on MeinMMO what makes this hidden PvP subculture and how their fights proceed.
What are fight clubs? Those who know the legendary film Fight Club or the book it is based on understand that fight clubs are secret, unofficial associations where people massively beat each other up according to strict rules.
Essentially, it is an underground scene of people who enjoy brawling. Such a scene also exists in the open-world action RPG Elden Ring.
Honorable duels and strict rules
What are the rules of the fight clubs? According to GamesRadar, fight clubs have existed in previous Souls games from FromSoftware. Due to the peculiarities of PvP in these games, there are very specific rules.
One player is the host of the fight club and calls forth 2 gladiators and various referees through the summoning system.
Preparations for the fight follow, which often occur nonverbally due to the lack of voice chat in the game. Then, a fight to the death ensues. Magic is allowed but frowned upon. The use of healing potions is strictly forbidden. Anyone caught will be immediately blasted away by the host and his assistants using magic.

In our podcast, we discuss whether you can play Elden Ring “wrong.”
The winner of the duel can then face a new opponent summoned by the host after a short break. The reward for this effort? Glory, honor, and respect!
Unlike the fight club from the movie, you are theoretically allowed to talk about it, even though the fight club scene is a special subculture within the game that is somewhat exclusive.
How to find fight clubs? In previous Souls games, there were specific locations where fight clubs met and held their fights. Players usually found them by chance. Thanks to the vast open world of Elden Ring, this has become even more challenging. However, good places that are slowly forming are:
The first grace site at the beginning of the game
Near the Boilprawn Shack in the center of Liurnia of the Lakes
Near the Smouldering Church in northern Limgrave
The main entrance of the Raya Lucaria Academy
Additionally, according to GamesRadar, there is a place where the developers themselves might have subtly thought about fight clubs: Mountaintops of the Giants.
This mountaintop is difficult to reach; you must first defeat the boss Morgott, storm the capital city of Lyndell, and reach the great lift of Rold. In doing so, you will ascend an icy plateau that stands far apart from the rest of the game world.
Up there, according to GamesRadar, is the ideal place to hold the venerable rituals and fights of the Elden Ring fight club far from the rest of the game.

Like many MMOs, Destiny 2 thrives on the influence and content of the community. However, numerous well-known YouTubers are now receiving copyright strikes. Even Bungie’s channels are affected. MeinMMO tells you how the developer studio has reacted.
What is it about? Until now, content creators could use Destiny 2 videos without any problems. Videos from known YouTubers like Paul Tassi, My name is Byf, and Aztecross included not just gameplay but also cutscenes and campaign videos. This was always accepted by Bungie. But recently, many content creators are receiving copyright strikes for “Destiny 2” videos.
Update: March 25, 2022
Bungie reveals in its weekly blog post that the takedowns of the YouTube videos come from accounts posing as Bungie’s “IP protection service.”
CSC, a partner of Bungie, did not initiate the copyright strikes as was speculated on social media. Generally, all actions by CSC are monitored by Bungie, according to the blog.
Google confirmed to the developer studio that the accounts responsible for the fraudulent requests have been banned. Furthermore, those accounts no longer have access to Google products.
Bungie promises that the takedown of the content will be reversed. According to the developer studio, the error lay with Google. In addition to the removal of the strikes, they are working with Google on process improvements to avoid such errors in the future.
After the takedown of the videos sparked a huge discussion on Twitter, Bungie’s community manager @Cozmo already provided the first update via Twitter last Sunday: the developer has scheduled a meeting for today, Monday, to discuss the issue.
This strike hits content creators particularly hard.
Today, an initial statement followed in which Bungie addresses the copyright strikes. According to them, neither Bungie nor its partners are responsible for the takedowns. Additionally, Bungie’s own channels are also affected, which makes it even stranger.
Here you can see Bungie’s official statement regarding the copyright takedowns:

Bungie emphasizes in the initial statement that the takedowns were not made at the request of the developer studio. This emphasis has a reason.
On the developer’s website, there is a section that defines the guidelines regarding the use of intellectual property and trademarks.
It not only allows the use of music, assets, and video materials for non-commercial content creation. There is even a special paragraph stating that Bungie does not request the takedown of content. The only exception is content created by the player that is less than twenty percent of the total. For example, official Bungie trailers uploaded to their YouTube channel for commercial purposes fall under removable content.
Below you can read the excerpt from Bungie’s “Intellectual Property and Trademarks” guidelines (as of March 21, 2022, last edited nine months ago)
Players can create videos with Destiny’s gameplay, which can then be uploaded to third-party services like YouTube. If a chosen video-on-demand service allows players to monetize content, we will generally not request takedowns if at least 20% of the video content is created by the player.
As of Monday, March 21, 2022, there is no further information available on this matter. It is not known who initiated the takedown of the content or why.
It is possible that YouTube took down the content without a takedown request being made. Bungie has announced in the statement that investigations into the incidents will follow, and they want to clarify it as quickly as possible.
The takedown is particularly catastrophic for content creators: A copyright strike or the overall takedown of a video is especially catastrophic for content creators. If YouTube starts taking down content related to video games in the future without developers requesting this, countless people will have to worry about their livelihoods.
What is a copyright strike? In what are called copyright strikes, videos are taken down due to copyright claims from third parties on YouTube. If you receive three copyright warnings, your account and all associated channels will be terminated. All videos uploaded to that account will be removed and you cannot create new channels. (via YouTube)
The situation raises many questions: Why were the contents taken down? Which entity is responsible for the takedown? But also outside the Destiny 2 cosmos, the situation raises questions and concerns. Because if it happens at Bungie, it might soon affect other games and their content creators.
Should I, as a content creator, be afraid of copyright strikes even though the developer studio has approved my content? All of these are examples of questions that may remain for some time after the situation is clarified. Would you as a YouTuber now be concerned about your livelihood?

The streaming service Twitch has banned chess grandmaster Hikaru Nakamura, one of the probably nicest people on Twitch. He dared to show how the disgraced streamer, DrDisrespect, plays chess. This is strictly forbidden according to the platform’s rules. However, after protests, the ban was somewhat eased.
Who is the grandmaster?
Hikaru Nakamura (34) is an American chess grandmaster. He achieved this title at the age of 15. Chess takes such matters very seriously: only those who meet strictly regulated conditions may call themselves grandmasters.
Nakamura is known for his abilities in blitz chess; he is also a feared online chess player. Since 2015, he has been on Twitch as “GMHikaru,” playing chess and discussing it in front of an average of about 9,200 viewers. He is openly friendly and approachable, without any airs of superiority.
Chess is a growing topic on Twitch: people like Hikaru Nakamura were pleased that jyoung streamers were enthusiastic about the game of kings and got their viewers interested in chess. The Netflix series “The Queen’s Gambit” also contributed to the hype. Streamers like the “Botez Sisters” somehow managed to become “chess influencers.”
What did Nakamura do? Nakamura found it interesting that the two YouTube streamers DrLupo and DrDisrespect were playing chess against each other. He made a bit of fun of their so-called “Doctor” titles and streamed their match on his Twitch channel.
Both streamers originally built their careers on the platform but then switched to YouTube:
Nakamura thus streamed the match of the two on his channel.
Neither DrDisrespect nor DrLupo had much experience with chess beforehand, so it was a matter where the two made rather wild moves and exchanged banter with each other (via youtube). When DrDisrespect moved a bishop aside, he referred to it as “Slide Canceling,” a term from shooter terminology.
DrDisrespect ultimately checkmated DrLupo in 30 moves.

DrDisrespect (black) contemplates his move after his bishop attack.
Nakamura violates the “DrDisrespect” rule
Why was he banned? Twitch does not allow anyone to be shown live who has been banned from the streaming platform.
This rule is now known as the “DrDisrespect” rule, as Twitch tightened the rule again after streamers began to interact with the banned DrDisrespect during their live streams about “Call of Duty.”
This is also now prohibited. Since September 2020, Twitch has required its streamers to make an effort to remove banned streamers from a “conversation, mute them, or otherwise restrict their interaction with the stream.”
Anyone who dares to speak with or even show a “banned streamer” can and will be punished by Twitch. It is said that they are guilty of “circumventing a ban.” Twitch knows no friends: this even affects the biggest streamers on the platform.
This became the grandmaster’s undoing.
Twitch issued him a 3-day ban. This is the first ban that such a friendly grandmaster has received there.
He is the “bad guy” on Twitch. Anyone who shows him gets into trouble.
Grandmaster says: Thought the matter was settled
Thisis what Nakamura says: He says the Doc tweeted that the matter with Twitch was resolved, but he must have been mistaken.
In fact, DrDisrespect merely stated that his lawsuit against the platform had been settled. Neither party admits to having made a mistake.
However, he remains banned, so he is regarded as the “bad guy” in the eyes of Twitch and cannot be shown.

The “3-day ban” ended after 2 days – Twitch found it rather silly.
Twitch unbans grandmaster early after criticism
Update 25.3, 10:30 AM: There are three new developments regarding GMHikaru:
Twitch streamer Asmongold criticized Hikaru’s ban. Twitch applies double standards: Asmongold and others had extensively commented on the NFT scandal involving DrDisrespect or discussed the similarly banned streamer IcePoseidon: Nothing happened to them. Hikaru is being banned now for a “nuance.” This doesn’t seem fair (via dexerto).
Upon hearing of the ban, DrDisrespect promised to send the chess grandmaster a bottle of his bourbon. The sly bearded man immediately seized the opportunity for a promotional campaign.
Additionally, Twitch seems to have had a change of heart and found the whole thing rather silly: GMHikaru was already unbanned after two days, not after 3 days as announced.
The ban on DrDisrespect is one of the major gaming mysteries of recent years:
Diablo 2 Resurrected was supposed to finally bring the Ladder at the end of March. Fans eagerly awaited the beloved feature, but a whole series of serious and unforeseen problems with the Ladder make an early release impossible. What happened, how the developers plan to solve the issues, and when the Ladder will finally arrive, you will find out here on MeinMMO.
What is the Ladder?The Ladder is a leaderboard and a popular feature of the original Diablo 2. You create a new character in the Ladder, with the aim of reaching Level 99 as quickly as possible.
This involves a sort of race against other players in multiplayer mode. The Ladder character lasts only as long as the current Ladder season does. After that, the hero is not deleted but is considered a normal character. However, he retains his entire inventory, which was earned in the Ladder.
At the end of the Ladder season, a leaderboard is created. There, you will see who the fastest hero was.
A Ladder character also has access to special content. This includes new runewords that you can even craft yourself.
Ladder causes problems that were not found in PTR testing
When will the Ladder arrive? The Ladder is currently not in the game and is eagerly awaited by players. After all, it is an important element of long-term motivation. Since January 2022, the Ladder has been in use on the test server and it was expected to be released at the end of February. Meanwhile, the release has been pushed to the end of March, but now that will not happen either.
What went wrong? In a blog post from Blizzard, it was recently revealed that the Ladder will not arrive at the end of March. The developers apologized for this. However, there were severe issues with integrating the Ladder into the live game, which meant everything had to be aborted and reset. The problems were:
Large parts of the database were not correctly migrated.
The database lacked an index, which led to massive delays in the game. Adding the index later was successful, but everything needs to be tested again to ensure it works properly.
There were still problems with the databases from different regions.
All these problems were not noticed on the test server. According to the developers, this was due to the fact that test server environments in Diablo 2 are something completely new and therefore did not exist in the original game. Hence the numerous problems with database migration.
What happens next? Despite the problems, Blizzard remains optimistic. They have identified all the issues and are currently working on solutions.
However, this takes time, and therefore the next patch 2.4 will not arrive until April 14, 2022. The Ladder will come a bit later, on April 28.
What do you think about the further delay? Do you understand or is it getting frustrating for you with the problems in Diablo 2? Let us know in the comments.

What kind of cup is this? The Mini Jungle Cup significantly limits the list of Pokémon you can use. Only monsters with a maximum of 500 CP can be used – so you’ll have to do without your standard top attackers.
Furthermore, only the following types are allowed to participate:
Normal
Plant
Electric
Poison
Ground
Flying
Bug
Dark
All monsters must correspond to at least one of these types. Therefore, your selection is limited. The following list shows which Pokémon are worth using.
Best Pokémon for the Mini Jungle Cup Overview
How is the list created? The following list was created using the website “PvPoke“. There, simulations based on PvP rankings can be created to see which monsters perform well.
We present the 10 best monsters in the ranking, including movesets.
Pokémon
Moveset
Waumboll
Charm, Vine Whip, Seed Bomb
Galar-Flunschlik
Mud Shot, Stone Edge, Earthquake
Altaria
Fire Blast, Sky Attack, Moonblast
Schnuthelm
Feint Attack, Body Slam, Bug Buzz
Knuddeluff
Charm, Ice Beam, Play Rough
Panzaeron
Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Sky Attack
Irokex
Counter, Leech Seed, Charge Beam
Pionskora
Toxic Spikes, Water Gun, Mud Bomb
Quiekel
Powder Snow, Blizzard, Body Slam
Kapuno
Fire Blast, Body Slam, Crunch
The Joker: In addition to the top 10 monsters from the ranking, you should not underestimate the small duck monster “Piccolente”. It can deal a lot of damage in a short time with a combination of Wing Attack, Bubble Beam, and Brave Bird.
The little Piccolente is also very suitable
Thus, Piccolente is very well suited as an opening Pokémon in the Mini Jungle Cup. Especially as a counter to the popular Waumboll, it may be worth having a Piccolente on the team.
There is no “perfect” team for the Mini Jungle Cup. It’s best to see which Pokémon from the list fit with those you’ve caught so far and try to send a balanced team into the cup. You should especially pay attention to strengths and weaknesses in terms of types.
Here is a team suggestion:
A team for the Mini Jungle Cup
Piccolente
As mentioned above, Piccolente can deal quick damage against a variety of Pokémon and lure the opponent into using shields early. It also takes the top position in PvPoke when it comes to opening Pokémon. Starting with a Piccolente is a good choice. But be cautious if your opponent throws in a Kapuno, Onix, Knuddeluff, or Flunschlik.
Waumboll
Waumboll can withstand a lot of opposing attacks, but with its fast attacks, it can deal a lot of damage as well. It beats monsters like Kapuno or Galar-Flunschlik but has to watch out for Pionskora, Quiekel, and Piccolente.
Galar-Flunschlik
Galar-Flunschlik can win against monsters of various types and is basically the alternative to Waumboll: It is a good counter against Pionskora, Kapuno, and Piccolente. It can use its charge attacks very quickly, but it doesn’t deal as much damage with fast attacks.
You have until Tuesday, March 29, to enjoy yourself in the Mini Jungle Cup. A few matches over the weekend could be worthwhile. However, another weekend theme is currently causing discussions within the Pokémon GO community: The community days on the weekends are becoming shorter again.

A small hotfix in World of Warcraft has big consequences. No one has to go to Torghast anymore. You can now buy resources in a different way.
Torghast in World of Warcraft is one of the content types that splits the player base. Some love going through the Tower of the Damned repeatedly and slicing through hordes of enemies with cool anima powers. Others find it monotonous and consider every visit to be “one too many.”
It’s only really annoying when one has to go to Torghast, for example to collect enough Soul Ash and Soul Globs to craft a new Legendary. This was the case until now – but that’s over.
What happened? The Enlightened faction in Zereth Mortis has a new item on offer, namely the “Bag of Explored Souls” for 3,000 Cosmic Flux. The bag was added via hotfix and can now be purchased by all players who have at least a friendly reputation. Those who have played the covenant campaign up to this point should have reached this reputation level quite easily.

The bag contains 1,650 Soul Globs and 5,150 Soul Ash. That’s enough to fully upgrade a Legendary to rank 7 or to craft a new one at rank 7.
Since you can also get Cosmic Flux from many other activities – such as raids, dungeons, treasures, and quests in Zereth Mortis – you never have to visit Torghast again if you don’t want to.
Why is this important now? For a few days now, the last chapter of the covenant campaign is available in World of Warcraft, which also unlocks the double Legendary feature. However, to fully utilize this feature, it’s necessary for every character to possess enough Soul Ash and Soul Globs – which could potentially mean visits to Torghast again. This necessity is now eliminated for everyone who is fed up with Torghast.
More about World of Warcraft on MeinMMO can be found here:
Some players report that the bag is not yet available on their realm – just be patient for a few hours if you can’t find it for sale yet. You should see and be able to buy the bag at the latest with the next realm restart.
Do you think this solution is good? Or is the price of 3,000 Cosmic Flux too high? Will you continue to go to Torghast?

In an interview, PlayStation Studio Head Hermen Hulst revealed more about the future release strategy on the PS5. They aim to create special social connections between players, while also continuing to work on single-player experiences.
To achieve this, they are also seeking help from outside or acquiring new studios. Bungie and Haven have been acquired, and there are collaborations with other studios such as Firewalk.
In several interviews, the head of PlayStation Studios has now revealed more about the strategy, mentioning that single-player epics like “Horizon” remain important.
MMO plans on PS5 – 10 games by 2026
What is known so far? Sony has not revealed too much yet. However, one thing is certain: 10 live service games are set to be released by March 2026, which typically indicates a focus on multiplayer.
This year, a lot has already happened at Sony in this regard, and PlayStation Studio Head Herman Hulst has shared small details in a series of interviews (references can be found below in the sources).
It is already known that 3 studios are working on completely new games that will establish a new universe. 2 of the studios have already been fully acquired by Sony:
They want to give the studios as much freedom as possible and eliminate “distractions.” The small studios should fully focus on their games without being thrown off by financial concerns, for example.
Hulst emphasizes that it’s not about imposing any projects on the studios. They should rather tap into their full potential, with Sony as a partner in the background.
Which Sony-owned MMO projects would be interesting can be read here:
Why doesn’t Sony just develop it themselves? This is part of a diversification strategy from Sony. The Japanese company wants to broaden its approach, intensively serve more gaming target groups, and not just rest on its past hits.
Everything is always done with an eye on “talents,” meaning highly specialized employees and up-and-coming prospects.
A popular strategy among larger companies: They acquire smaller players, let them continue to operate independently, and ideally strengthen each other. If things don’t go well, integration follows.
Similar to what Microsoft did with Minecraft developer Mojang. To this day, the block designers are allowed to work independently, and the acquisition of the studio was nearly 8 years ago.
Clearly, Microsoft ultimately wants to profit financially from this. However, it is also very valuable to learn from the small partner.
Therefore, large corporations today have an interest in letting smaller companies continue to work in their familiar structures and not to let them sink within the giant corporation. They remain more flexible and can keep their flat hierarchies.
Ideally, the large partner manages to be inspired by the innovations and ideas of the smaller partners – whether in a game or in business processes.
However, there are also acquisitions that are clearly driven by profit intentions. Buy, build, cash in. But with Sony and Microsoft, these are clearly strategic acquisitions with long-term ambitions.
Singleplayer remains a big topic at Sony
PlayStation Studio Head Hulst also explains that single-player projects are not being written off:
Of course, we will continue to develop narrative single-player games like Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us, and Horizon Forbidden West. But it is true that we have invested a lot in live-service games because that is incredibly exciting for us. It allows us to create larger worlds. It allows us to truly establish special social connections between players.
Further studio acquisitions could also be part of the strategy. When asked, Hulst mentioned that they currently do not have any growth targets to share with the public.
But they are always looking to secure the best talents in the industry and deliver exciting and new experiences to players.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands releases on March 25, 2022, and comes with 6 classes. You told us which ones you want to try at launch. Here you can find the most popular classes ranked.
All six classes that are available at the release of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands were available for selection. You could vote twice – thanks to the “multiclass system,” it is possible to combine two classes during gameplay.
As of the current evaluation (March 24, 2022), a total of 2,267 people participated in the survey and cast votes. Now let’s take a look at how you voted.
Here is the ranking from the least popular to the most popular class.
Rank 6: Brr-Serker
The Brr-Serker class lands in sixth place in the ranking with 280 votes (9% of all votes).
Brr-Serkers initially follow a fairly straightforward tactic: freeze enemies with cryo damage, then shatter them with a devastating melee attack. Brr-Serkers do not have any companions.
The majority of the skill tree also contains abilities to quickly ramp up the class’s damage. While this is useful, the melee class apparently couldn’t convince you the most.
Rank 5: Killomant
The Killomant class ranks fifth in the ranking with 407 votes (13%).
The stealthy Killomants only made it to second to last place in your ranking with their sneaky approach from the shadows. They also come without companions – unless you count their large, spinning blade as a helpful friend.
The cloaking ability also failed to convince you to rank the Killomant class higher.
Rank 4: Grabspross
The Grabspross class ranks fourth in the ranking with 524 votes (17%).
The Grabspross narrowly missed the top 3 in your ranking. The dark mage managed to gather some votes, but was still narrowly pushed to 4th place.
Nonetheless, the Grabspross could be an exciting class: with the ability to transform health into damage and with a companion that spreads hellish magic, there could be interesting combinations as a multiclass.

Rank 3: Klauenbringer
The Klauenbringer class ranks third with 525 votes (17%).
The Klauenbringer class managed to score one more vote than the Grabspross. Was the huge magical hammer of the class the decisive argument? In any case, the Klauenbringer not only brings a magical weapon but also a small wyvern companion that breathes fire.
Big hammer, small dragon – apparently that was enough argument for 3rd place.
Rank 2: Zauberschütze
The Zauberschütze class ranks second in the ranking with 653 votes (21%).
The Zauberschütze ascends to second place with their unique ability to equip two spells simultaneously. Additionally, they have the ability to turn enemies into harmless critters – which is also amusing.
MeinMMO author Maik Schneider was also lured by this and used the Zauberschütze as his main class in his test of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. He likely won’t be the only one.
Rank 1: Sporenhüter
The Sporenhüter class ranks first in the ranking with 677 votes (22%).
A focus on firearms including a magical bow, a poison-spitting mushroom companion, and the ability to unleash biting frost tornadoes on enemies – these apparently were enough arguments to elevate the Sporenhüter class to rank 1.
In the wider Wonderlands community, the Sporenhüter class has also emerged as a bit of a hidden favorite. Abilities like “Wrath of Nature,” which apply increased damage from all sources to enemies, are also enticing. Especially when you’re traveling through the Wonderlands in a group.
This is how the ranking stands at least currently – even before the game officially released. It will be exciting to see if the structure changes once the first crazy builds make the rounds.
Because those who know the Borderlands series know: There are truly crazy chain reactions you can create using abilities, weapon, and equipment effects.
With the start of the Shadow Jungle event, a new Special Research for the island of Akala is unlocked in Pokémon GO. We at MeinMMO have looked at all the tasks and rewards for you and summarized them.
What kind of research is it about? Currently, the Alola season is running in Pokémon GO, which will focus on the Alola region. As announced by Niantic, there will be a total of four Special Research tasks for the different Alola islands during this season.

Many years and 8 add-ons after the release, WoW has a metric ton of important and unforgettable characters. Can you recognize them all just by their outlines?
The cult status of WoW has established itself in the years since the release, not only in the gaming community. Even people who generally have nothing to do with video games may have heard of the MMORPG giant. After all, there was even a South Park episode about the game.
Accordingly, the characters from WoW have a high recognizability, even for people who have never touched the game.
Legendary personalities such as Arthas, Tyrande, Medivh, Thrall, or Garrosh will also be known to people who are not WoW fans. And players of the MMORPG will certainly know them.
But how well? Although they have encountered these characters over the years in the game, is that enough to succeed in our flip quiz about WoW characters? Find out together with us and test your WoW knowledge.
This is how the quiz works: We have prepared 10 images for you below, showing the dark outlines of well-known characters from World of Warcraft. The task here is to guess these characters solely by the shape of the silhouette.
If you think you know the correct answer, click on the image or tap it if you’re on your smartphone. The image will flip and show you the correct answer. Hence the name of the quiz: “Flip Quiz”.
There is no point distribution for the answers, so your conscience is your only judge. Let us know in the comments how many characters you recognized correctly. Did you find the quiz difficult or super easy? Which MMORPG would you like to see such a quiz for?
Have fun guessing!

The new MMORPG Lost Ark gets quite difficult at certain points relatively early on. But what actually happens when your character dies? We at MeinMMO explain it to you.
What happens when you die? If you perish in Lost Ark, your character lies dead on the ground and your pet mourns for you. But what actually happens in terms of gameplay? Dying in Lost Ark is not a big deal, but it can become quite expensive if it happens too often.
Once you are on the ground, you have 10 seconds to make a decision. That is, whether you want to use a Phoenix Feather to resurrect on the spot or restart at the last checkpoint.
Regardless of which option you choose, your equipment takes damage in the process. After several deaths, you are forced to repair your gear, otherwise, in the worst case, you will lose its stats and die even more often.
How do you repair your armor? Repairing your gear is necessary when the game gives you the corresponding hint in the upper right corner next to the minimap. However, repairs can be done at any time.
If an item is damaged, it lights up yellow on the portrait next to the minimap to let you know that you should take care of it soon. If it lights up red, it is broken and no longer provides bonuses.
To change that, you need to visit a blacksmith and select the option “Repair Gear”. You then have the choice of whether to only repair the currently equipped items, all in your inventory, or just specific ones. The repair itself will cost you silver, depending on the item level and condition of the item.

Everything you need to know about Lost Ark’s endgame – in the video
If you have an active crystalline aura, you can also use your pet to repair gear. Simply click it with Ctrl+Right Click, select Tools, and then also click “Repair Gear”.
Where do you get Phoenix Feathers? The feathers are an account-wide currency, of which you always consume a single one when you are resurrected on the spot. You can obtain them from the real money shop or as rewards from rapport quests, side quests, and achievements.
Situations where your death works differently
When is it different? When you reach the endgame, your deaths work a little differently than before. The rule still applies that a Phoenix Feather resurrects you immediately and your gear gets damaged, but raids, for example, limit this function.
In Guardian Raids, you can return to life as a group only a total of 3 times. So, if 3 of your teammates die and then you, you must stay down until the boss is defeated or the raid group fails.
In such situations, you can use the observe function to at least watch another player defeat the boss for you. You then automatically get back up at the end of the raid without consuming one of the feathers or needing to interact yourself.
The situation is similar in Abyss Dungeons, except you are not allowed to get up at all. If you are dead here, you simply have to wait.
How is it in PvP? Here, what happens after your death heavily depends on the game mode. Phoenix feathers are excluded here, as they do not work in player matches. In team deathmatch and deathmatch mode, you can simply get back up after dying.
Here it’s all about getting as many kills as possible. In team elimination mode, however, you are eliminated as soon as you die. Then you have to wait and can watch your teammates.
In Pokémon GO there is a new promo code. It will give you a Lucky Egg, a Star Piece, and Poké Balls. Redeem it quickly before it expires.
What kind of code is this? New promo codes for Pokémon GO are regularly released. You can redeem the codes directly in the game on Android devices or use a website for iOS. We will show you the code here and help with the redemption.
You can redeem it immediately, and you should do so as long as you can. Since it is unclear how long the code will remain valid, speed is advantageous here.
What does the code give you? You will receive a Lucky Egg, a Star Piece, and 20 Poké Balls.
The method to redeem the codes depends on your smartphone. In Pokémon GO, the processes between iOS and Android are slightly different. While Android allows you to redeem codes directly in the game, iOS requires a workaround through an external website.
On Android devices: If you are playing with an Android device, you can simply redeem promo codes in the in-game shop. You just need to scroll down until you find the “Promos” field. There, enter the code, confirm, and the items should then appear in your bag.
On iOS devices: On iOS devices, entering in the shop is not possible, as the corresponding field does not exist at all. Instead, you need to visit Niantic’s rewards website. You can find the link here: Redeem promo code (via rewards.nianticlabs.com).
Here, you need to select your linked account and enter the code. If everything works, you should see a corresponding notification on the website. In the game, you can check in your journal whether the items have been credited to you through the code.
Currently, the best guilds in the world are fighting for the first kills in the latest raid of World of Warcraft. However, it is taking too long, at least for the teams. Because they now have to change hotels. The bosses just aren’t dying fast enough.
Only 2 guilds are currently facing the Jailer, the final boss: Echo and Team Liquid, formerly Limit.
However, one of the players from Liquid stated that they are taking too long. They need to leave their hotel – some players even need to leave the country.
Why do players need to change hotels? The raid leader, guild master, and co-owner of Liquid, Maximum, announced on Twitter that he and his team need to change hotels. The World First Race is simply taking too long.
Although he does not specify a concrete reason, it is likely that the bookings have simply expired. Since February, they have been showcasing the event and playing the bosses, and still, the content is not cleared.
Liquid is currently at 36.9% with the Jailer – Echo is at 30% (via warcraftlogs). However, both guilds are still likely a bit away from the kill. Traditionally, bosses become more difficult rather than easier towards the end of the fight.

World First Race is Taking Too Long: “Our Tank Has to Go Back to Scotland”
Maximum further explains that one of their tanks has to fly back to Scotland. He does not elaborate on the exact reasons, but it is likely that having one of their key players only able to participate from abroad is a significant hindrance to their progress.
However, the situation gets even more bizarre: as the raid leader explains, the remaining players now have to change hotels. And the cheapest way to do so is to chauffeur them in a stretch limo with lobster.
Why is it taking so long? The Jailer is not the first boss to cause problems for the world’s best guilds. Halondrus, the 7th boss of the raid, alone took over 1,800 pulls before he was defeated.
The entire raid seems to be significantly harder than what players are used to from WoW or at least from Shadowlands. Many mechanics lead to an instant wipe, and a single mistake punishes at least one player with death.
The result is a plethora of nerfs, sometimes in the middle of progress and especially on ‘lower’ difficulties. The pros play all in Mythic mode, but most other guilds are attempting Normal or Heroic mode.
Moreover, bosses like Anduin are nerfed almost weekly, sometimes even more frequently. Nevertheless, they present significant hurdles for players to overcome. An ex-professional player stated that there is a system behind it. The new raid is intentionally made to be hard:
