Ein Wikinger in Valheim baut eines der bekanntesten Wahrzeichen von WoW nach

In one of the worlds of Valheim (Steam), the harbor of Stormwind now stands. Normally, it can be found in World of Warcraft, but a player spent hours meticulously bringing the harbor to the survival game.

This is what the player built: The reddit user and Valheim player ericxsg recreated the harbor of Stormwind. The landmark of the Alliance capital has been adorned with most of the details that can also be found in WoW, such as:

  • the docks to Northrend, Darnassus, and Kul Tiras
  • the shipyard where new ships are constructed
  • Towers and walls
  • the buildings and training areas that have been there since the preparation for Legion
  • Crates and barrels that are also found on the docks and at the harbor in World of Warcraft
  • the large lion statue that overlooks the harbor – built from individual wooden beams

Even the ships are anchored, although they are somewhat smaller than the galleons from WoW. Only the airships that usually wait over the harbor are missing. But so far, no one has managed to build so high in the air in Valheim. Nevertheless, the harbor was apparently a lot of work. We have included the images here in our gallery, and you can also find them in the thread on reddit.

30 hours and some tricks for the build

How long did it take him? According to his own statements, ericxsg needed over 30 hours for the harbor. This is pure building time, as he built all of this in creative mode – so he didn’t have to farm materials for it. Otherwise, it would probably have taken well over 200 hours – like the huge fortress of FallenQsnow.

How did he manage it? Despite being in creative mode, the player had to pay attention to some things, such as stability and foundations. To build the docks, he first had to raise the ground in the sea so that the wood could remain stable in the end.

Like in WoW, the Stormwind Harbor in Valheim is mostly made of stone. In this case, it is even important for the stability of his buildings. Because stone counts as a “foundation” and thus provides stability for everything built on it.

The rest is thanks to hours of hard work. Many users praised ericxsg for his attention to detail; some even thought at first glance that it was screenshots from WoW. He himself says that during the build, he constantly looked at the harbor on the second screen to capture as many details as possible.

Such huge projects are not uncommon in Valheim. Many players use the opportunities to fully express themselves and build the craziest things – from cities to Sauron’s tower to spaceships. If you want to tackle something like this yourself, you can find 3 bases in Valheim that you can use as inspiration for your own.

Valorant: Head of the largest team instructs players to taunt opponents

In the tactical shooter Valorant an official game administrator requested players to refrain from “teabagging.” It is a humiliating gesture. However, the head of the largest European team, G2 Esports, says: “Fuck this rule” and instructs his players to do it extra.

What is teabagging? Teabagging is a symbolic gesture in video games: One presses the genitalia of one’s character into the face of a defeated opponent lying on the ground by standing over their face and repeatedly crouching. It is called “teabagging” because the motion of the genitalia resembles putting a teabag into a cup of hot water.

“Teabagging” is generally considered rude and frowned upon.

After a player teabagged an opponent in Valorant in December 2020, he even received death threats.

This is what it looks like when you “teabag” an opponent in Valorant.

This is the reason for the discussion: A player of G2 Esports, Patryk “PaTiTek” Fabrowski, shared a screenshot on Twitter. The admin of an official Valorant tournament game told him: They do not want teabagging in the broadcasts. This is considered rude (via twitter).

G2 Esports is the largest esports team in Europe. They have dominated League of Legends for years. According to Forbes, the team is worth about 175 million USD. G2 is known for their “memes.” The head of the team declared G2 as the “Real Madrid of esports”.

“Fuck the rule – teabag them and shoot their corpses!”

This is how G2 Esports reacts: Apparently, this has been interpreted as a “new rule” by Riot, not to teabag. When an admin says this, it is seen as coming directly from Riot Games.

The head of G2 Esports, former LoL professional Carlos “Ocelote” Rodriguez, subsequently instructed his players on Twitter to “teabag everyone and shoot at the corpses.” Regarding the new rule from Riot Games, he said “Fuck this rule.”

https://twitter.com/CarlosR/status/1368270997187682309

In a further tweet, he called the rule “stupid,” saying it has no place in Valorant. They apparently want to make Europe as boring as it was before G2 existed. That won’t happen.

Many think “teabagging is part of it”

This is the discussion: If you read the comments on Twitter, most players are clearly “pro-teabagging”. They consider it

  • “freedom of expression”
  • “psychological warfare”
  • and something that “simply belongs in a first-person shooter”

People seem genuinely appalled that Riot Games would actually suggest something as absurd as refraining from teabagging. They now want a clear statement from Riot Games on whether it is banned or not.

Why do we ‘tea-bag’ our opponents in online games?

G2 teabags and loses

This is how it went on: The players of G2 Esports extensively used teabagging “at the command of their boss.” They participated in the tournament VCT 2021: EU Challengers 3, where 8 teams competed for nearly 42,000€.

When G2 Esports took a 9-0 lead against Dfuse on the first map, they teabagged. However, G2 lost the match significantly after the lead. Thus, they fail to qualify for the first VCT Masters, as dotesports knows.

It turned out poorly. Perhaps they should have focused on other things. In the comments, it is noted: “Bad T-Bag karma.”

This is what it’s about: This fits with G2 Esports and the brand “G2.” They often appear in LoL so confidently that it borders on disrespect towards the opponent. G2 is known for memes and stunts – they celebrate openly, boast big, post a lot on social media, mock opponents and each other. There is a lot of irony and sarcasm involved: They revel in gaming and themselves, drawing energy from the jokes.

It is all well and good, as long as G2 Esports dominates and things are going well. However, once they lose, these antics seem exaggerated and one thinks: “Maybe it would have gone better if you had focused on the match.”

Caps-G2-Esports-Baden
G2 is considered a dream team in Europe. Here they indicated throwing a player into the pool at the LoL Worlds 2020.

Even if one can see this behavior as “unsportsmanlike”, G2 Esports has been very successful with this attitude: They excite their fans and are generally entertaining. Additionally, they are fair losers. When things go wrong, the teams also own up to it. And apparently, none of this is meant too seriously – it’s just a game.

Carlos “Ocelote” Rodriguez is the founder and mastermind behind G2. He started as a mid-laner for SK Gaming in 2011 at the beginning of LoL but recognized the enormous potential in esports by his mid-20s and founded G2 Esports in 2013 based in Berlin. He apparently still has a bit of a fiery temperament:

Player opens 12,000 loot boxes in Star Trek Online so you don’t have to

Lockboxes provide you with random items in the MMORPG Star Trek Online (PC, PS4/PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S). A player opened 12,000 of the loot boxes to see the chances of getting specific items.

What is the purpose of the experiment? CasualSAB enjoys playing the well-running MMORPG Star Trek Online for 11 years and wanted to see how high the chances are for certain items that can be drawn from the loot box-like lockboxes.

To do this, he obtained 12,000 of the boxes, which he opens gradually and then logs the contents. You can watch it in this video:

What’s Inside 12,000 Loot Boxes from Star Trek Online

What exactly are lockboxes? Lockboxes are a type of loot box in Star Trek Online. They contain random items such as officers for your bridge or starships. You even have a chance to win the major prize. This varies frequently and often offers special ships, discounts, Lobi Crystals needed for purchasing special items, and more.

You can find lockboxes as loot or as rewards from events. However, you need keys to open these boxes. And you buy these keys in the in-game store.

Didn’t the player spend an enormous amount of money? CasualSAB played on the test server of the still exciting STO and was able to open the boxes for free there. Had he needed to purchase them normally, they would have reportedly cost around $12,000 (via reddit).

What did he find? Interestingly, he found the major prize and thus a special starship approximately every 240 boxes. This is a drop rate of 0.417%. However, CasualSAB explains that there is no guarantee to get a ship every 240 boxes. In the video, it is shown that he even opens hundreds of boxes at times without receiving a starship.

He discovered ships of the lower tier T5 with a chance of 1.908%. He found Duty Officer Packs with new officers “quite frequently” (13.867%), the bonus pool with a lot of EXP (12.292%), and weapons (11.833%).

In this table, you can see the chances for the individual items:

ItemDrop Rate
Major Prize0.417%
T5 Ship1.908%
Console Pack3.375%
Bridge Officer Manual4.542%
Starship Trait1.842%
Kit Modules9.117%
Personal Trait7.000%
Weapon Pack11.833%
Dilithium Mine Claim4.717%
Duty Officer Pack13.867%
Duty Officer Mission9.892%
Kit Frame11.183%
Bonus EXP12.292%
Crafting Materials8.017%

Are the data significant? Although CasualSAB opened the lockboxes on the test server, he assumes that the drop rates are the same on the live servers. Previous experiments of this kind have shown that drop rates on the test server and live servers were the same.

If you play Star Trek Online, you can see based on CasualSAB’s data how your chances currently stand for certain items you can draw from the lockboxes. It should be noted that the developers of the MMORPG STO can adjust these chances at any time.

If you want to learn more about the development of STO, a developer tells us how he made the leap from fan to designer at Star Trek Online.

Pokémon GO: Trainer catches 11,400 monsters in one day – How is that possible?

The trainer tarotirota from Japan has achieved an incredible goal in Pokémon GO. Within 24 hours, he caught 11,400 Pokémon. We explain how this is possible.

This is what happened: The Japanese trainer tarotirota shared his incredible goal on Twitter. He caught 11,400 Pokémon in 24 hours – more than many trainers have caught in their entire careers.

We explain how to accomplish something this crazy and what other achievements the trainer has reached.

How extreme you have to play for this goal

This is how you can calculate: To catch 11,400 Pokémon in one day, you have to catch an average of 8 Pokémon per minute. That would mean catching one every 7.5 seconds. However, you have to maintain this goal for a full 24 hours to reach the incredible number of 11,400.

https://twitter.com/tarotirota0106/status/1368221230373892096
Here the Japanese shows his achievement.

How does one achieve this? Anyone wanting to catch 8 Pokémon per minute must definitely use the catching trick. This way, you skip all the annoying animations that appear when catching. Thus, it is indeed possible to catch 8 Pokémon per minute.

What’s particularly impressive is that the Japanese trainer maintained this number for a full 24 hours.

For this, tarotirota must have had a large supply of Poké Balls, and even then, the trainer had to turn a lot of Stops or buy more balls. This very problem is also mentioned in his tweet, where he states that the ball shortage was difficult to compensate for.

The location of tarotirota also played in his favor. Many places in Japan are among the best spots in the world for playing Pokémon GO. At many locations, there are numerous PokéStops clustered together, attracting even more Pokémon through Lure modules.

What to keep in mind: In Pokémon GO, there is a catch limit that gives players a soft ban when reached. Every Pokémon that you then want to catch flees. This limit was introduced to prevent cheaters from automatically catching Pokémon indefinitely.

The catch limit is set per week. Currently, this limit is over 14,000 Pokémon in a week. Therefore, for tarotirota to achieve his goal of 11,400 Pokémon in one day, he must have played significantly less beforehand and only accomplished the essentials. He mentions that he enjoyed a week without Pokémon in advance.

How successful was this hunt? He posted a picture showing an unbelievable 139 Shinies within a day. This is also because he conducted his experiment during the Community Day with Dartiri. So, the majority of the Shinies are likely from Dartiri.

With the 11,400 Pokémon caught, tarotirota now stands at 1,045,300 caught Pokémon. The hurdle of one million caught Pokémon has only been surpassed by very few players so far.

Here’s how it’s going for extreme players in Pokémon GO: Worldwide, there are several trainers who have achieved extreme goals. In Europe, HelsinkiTrolli is one of the best trainers. He has already caught over 1.6 million Pokémon and mastered quite a few crazy challenges.

Worldwide, Brandon Tan is probably one of the most well-known trainers. He is still considered the trainer who has collected the most XP in Pokémon GO. He is also among the biggest YouTubers for Pokémon GO.

Who is tarotirota anyway? He is one of the most well-known players in Japan. While he has caught over a million Pokémon, he has so far only collected “only” 400 million XP. This shows that he focuses primarily on catching Pokémon. Other successful players have very different numbers. For example, Brandon Tan is at 1.2 million catches but has already earned over 2.1 billion XP. Here, the difference is clearly in the other direction.

WoW: Attention – Do not complete your class quests starting today

In WoW: Shadowlands you should no longer complete your covenant quests starting today. There is an important reason for this, Patch 9.0.5.

In World of Warcraft Shadowlands, many players have a daily routine. Some anima is collected, world quests are completed here and there, a dungeon is visited, or the covenant quests are finished. However, you should not complete these covenants now – at least until Wednesday.

Which covenant quests are we talking about exactly? You receive covenant quests from your covenant and they are always active for three days. You can collect a maximum of three of these missions and then complete them “in one go”. However, you should not complete the latest covenant quest that you receive today. Wait to complete today’s and tomorrow’s missions until Wednesday (10.03.).

Why should you wait? On March 10th, the small Patch 9.0.5 will be released. While it brings few new features like the cool Urtum mount, it also includes the new system for valor points. Players can earn these in dungeons of the “Mythic+” difficulty to upgrade gear from those dungeons.

A small amount of valor is also available daily from the covenant quests. To get the most out of the system, you should start on Wednesday with three available covenant quests. This is only possible if you save the quests from Monday (today) and Tuesday (tomorrow) until the patch.

Is it bad if you do the quests anyway? No. The valor points system has a cap, and aside from that, they can be earned “infinitely” in dungeons. Those who miss some points from the covenant quests just need to visit some more dungeons to make up the deficit. This does not create a long-term disadvantage.

Will you save your covenant quests until Wednesday? Or do you not care about the new valor points system and will not take it into consideration?

The upgrading of items has strict requirements in Patch 9.0.5.

FIFA 21 TOTW 24: The Predictions for the New Team of the Week

On March 10, the TOTW 24 (Team of the Week) will be released in FIFA 21. Here on MeinMMO, you’ll find out who could secure a spot in the next Team of the Week.

Update, March 10: The TOTW 24 is now live in FIFA 21.

What is the Team of the Week? EA Sports selects 23 players every week for the Team of the Week who have shown excellent performances in real football. These players are rewarded with improved Inform cards that are available for one week in packs .

What are TOTW Predictions? Before the TOTW is released, the FUT community tries to guess which players could make it into the Team of the Week. Predictions are made based on the real performances of the players.

However, it is important to note that predictions are not a guarantee and can differ from the actual TOTW.

They provide a good overview and can also be used excellently to earn some coins in FUT 21. Here we tell you how it works:

Possible Bundesliga Players in TOTW 24

These Bundesliga players could appear in the new TOTW:

  • Leon Goretzka unexpectedly received no spot in TOTW 23 last week, as EA favored Lewandowski. But perhaps Goretzka will get a new chance this week. His good performance and the opening goal against Borussia Dortmund would speak for it.
  • Pavel Kadeřábek had a strong game for Hoffenheim and assisted both goals in the 2:1 victory against VfL Wolfsburg. A TOTW card would therefore be quite plausible.
  • Alexander Sorloth impressed with a strong performance against SC Freiburg, scoring one goal and providing an assist in the 3:0 win. Whether he will receive an Inform card, we will find out on Wednesday.

Destiny 2: Wait before farming the God Rolls of the new weapons

Destiny 2 has enhanced the old playlists with trendy but really rare weapons. They will be available more frequently soon, so save yourself the time now and don’t farm yet.

This is about these rare weapons: With the start of Season 13, the so-called core activities have received fresh loot. For completing strikes, Crucible, and Gambit matches, you can earn 2 new guns each with a bit of luck.

These 6 guns (see title image) are exclusive to their respective playlists and you really need a lot of patience because:

  • on one hand, the drop rate is frighteningly low
  • on the other hand, the perk pool on the guns is huge.
  • both together result in a vanishingly small chance for a God Roll (the best combination of attachments and perks)

If you’re planning long farming sessions now, you should postpone the date. Bungie is talking about changes and why the items are so rare.

More on the topic
Destiny 2 has 39 new weapons in Season 13 – Here you can find them
von Philipp Hansen

That’s why you should wait

This is changing: During Season 13, by May 2021 at the latest, Bungie wants to increase the drop rates of the playlist-exclusive weapons. So you will soon have a better chance of getting a Last Dollar from Gambit.

So ideally, save yourself the time now and instead use it for other things. If you can wait that long… But with the low drop rate, it saves you a lot of frustration if you would end up empty-handed again after completing a match.

There will be no new way to earn the guns, and the perk pool will not get smaller either. In the future, Bungie plans to add more new playlist weapons – but only in future seasons that are not specified.

Why are the weapons so rare?

This is what Bungie says: Chris Proctor is “Weapon Feature Lead” at Bungie and discusses the rarity of the new weapons in a blog post (via Bungie.net). According to him, the weapons have such large perk pools so that players can take a long time hunting and try many options.

Our goal in introducing these rewards was to create space for longer periods of time as well as ritual-specific goals for players when they hunt the perfect roll of a weapon, and to explore the possible space for perk rolls on a weapon archetype in the same way that weapon designers do.

This way, Guardians should find every drop of the playlist weapons interesting and immediately be eager to click on the gun to browse the perk combinations. Due to the insane possibilities, there isn’t “the one God Roll”.

All these combination possibilities are there with Last Dollar:

Source: light.gg

Proctor notes, however, that the weapons currently appear far too rarely. With the increased drop rate, Guardians should have “a more positive experience” when they complete an activity. But due to the large perk pool, it shouldn’t become a short-term grind. Since the hated soon sunsetting story is, you have less pressure anyway.

This is reminiscent of Destiny 1, where there was only the notorious Eyasluna drop after Crucible matches. The powerful hand cannon was a favored drop until the switch to Destiny 2, and immediately the roll was clicked, it could be the God Roll.

Have you spent a lot of time farming the new weapons, or are you glad you’ve postponed it so far and are waiting for the drop chance increase? Which gun are you particularly keen on, and do you perhaps have tips for the God Roll? Let us know in the comments.

Thousands of players storm into WoW: Classic empty realm for a “new beginning”

Because Blizzard isn’t delivering, players have simply revived a realm in WoW Classic. Thousands participated – with success.

A few days ago, MeinMMO already reported that a player in WoW Classic launched the “The Fresh Crusade” project. He wanted to give WoW players a fresh start like at launch and sought like-minded individuals. The response was overwhelming, and thousands of players joined to repopulate the world of WoW Classic once again.

What kind of event was it? “The Fresh Crusade” was players’ attempt to fulfill a dream that Blizzard probably won’t offer anymore. The players wanted to experience the launch of the game and a new realm once again. To this end, they coordinated their timing and stormed an previously unmentioned realm last Friday evening.

The scenes were likely to touch some WoW fans, as they were reminiscent of the sights during the official launch of Classic. Hundreds of players in starting areas caused long waits and queues in front of quest mobs. These can only be “tagged” by a maximum of one group and have respawn times that can last several minutes.

WoW Classic Fresh Crusade Queue

As is proper, the players are patiently waiting in line for their kill.

How many participated? Exact numbers are hard to find. However, it is clear that on the “The Fresh Crusade” Discord server, a little over 10,000 interested individuals were registered. Caszhar, the initiator of the project, explained in an interview with Eurogamer that about 30% of the people on Discord were actually present. That would mean about 3,000 players who entered the realm Dragonfang (EU). The realm was considered “dead” beforehand, with hardly any active players left.

https://youtu.be/DVWQYmj2Q-k

Now there are nearly 20 new guilds. How many of those players will stay on the realm long-term is hard to say. However, the chances are good that many will form new friendships that will last and lead to extended gameplay.

There were also trolls who wanted to disrupt: Because the project attracted so much attention beforehand, there were also a few trolls who wanted to disrupt intentionally. Some tried to guess the right realm in advance to “level up” and kill newcomers directly through PvP. Others tried to defeat the valuable quest mobs repeatedly, even though they didn’t need them anymore – just so that other players couldn’t complete their quests.

But there are trolls and troublemakers on every realm, it seems.

Can you still participate? Sure. Anyone who wants can still start on Dragonfang a bit delayed. The other players had only about 3 days of head start, which can still be made up in Classic. Anyone who puts in some effort can soon catch up with the others and can then experience dungeons again or quest in groups instead of just being pulled to level 60 by “boosters”.

Did you participate in the event? Are you looking at the realm later on? Or would you not have the nerve to start anew in Classic?

Pokémon GO: Thundurus Counter Guide – The Best Attackers in Tier 5 Raid

The best Raid counters for Boreos in Pokémon GO help you win the battle as quickly as possible. We show you the best attackers and everything important about the Boreos raid.

What kind of boss is this? The legendary Pokémon Boreos is solely a Flying type. Therefore, its counters include attackers of Electric, Ice, and Rock types.

The special thing about this boss is that it has two forms. However, it can only be found in its Incarnate Form at first.

Update from March 8, 2021: We have updated this counter guide for you and added new attackers to the table. Since its last visit in Pokémon GO, there are new counters like Mega Ampharos that deal a lot of damage in battle against Boreos.

How long will Boreos be available? You can find the boss from March 6 at 08:00 until March 11, 2021, at 08:00 in raids in Pokémon GO. You can find more events for March 2021 in Pokémon GO here.

The best counters against Boreos in Pokémon GO

Below, we will show you the best counters that you should use in the battle against Boreos.

Notes: With Electric Pokémon, you are well served in this fight, as they are not susceptible to the attacks that Boreos can bring into battle.

Attackers like Ramides or Mamoswine are solid in battle, but are vulnerable if Boreos has the attack Uproar.

What attacks does Boreos have?

The boss can have various movesets made up of the following attacks:

  • As a Fast Attack, Boreos learns Air Slash or Bite
  • As Charge Attacks, it learns Hurricane, Hyper Beam, Uproar, or Dark Pulse

How many trainers does it take to fight? If you are equipped with strong counters, you can defeat Boreos with just 2 trainers. To be on the safe side, we recommend about 4 trainers.

This is still important: At the end of March 2021, the Therian form of Boreos will be available in Pokémon GO. Starting March 30, it will be time. Mark this date and make sure to get this form of the legendary boss.

3 Loadouts from the Pro that will help you dominate in Season 13 of Destiny 2

In Destiny 2, an expert shares his top 3 strongest weapon combinations for PvE. Here you will find the locations and information about the guns that you should definitely try out in the Season of the Chosen.

You can find it here: In Destiny 2, you can always carry 3 weapons. But which legendary guns and Exotics make the deadliest combinations and can flatten bosses as well as quickly wipe out adds?

This is exactly the question that Destiny expert Ehroar from the Redeem Clan has asked. The clan holds multiple World-First titles and the famous Destiny streamer Gladd is also a member there.

MeinMMO presents in this article the 3 best loadouts from Ehroar for PvE in Season 13 and gives you the locations of the weapons and some tips on gameplay or synergy of the combos. The good thing is: you can play all the suggestions with any class and both on PC and consoles.

Since Destiny 2 finally removes the heavily criticized weapon sunset from the game, you can use the powerful loadouts at your leisure in the future.

No more weapon retirement – Destiny 2 finally kills its biggest criticism
von Philipp Hansen

Loadout 1 makes a bang

Primary Weapon: Ehroar swears by the Extraordinary Performance. This is a 750 RPM submachine gun with kinetic damage. According to him, this is the best legendary SMG in the game.

  • You receive Extraordinary Performance after battlefield kills and can find it in focused Umbral Engrams.
  • For perks, focus on “Rampage” to receive a 20% damage bonus. You don’t even have to actively engage with the weapon. As long as you are in combat for 12 seconds, the perk activates. By the way, this perk is exclusively found on the new Cabal weapons of Season 13.
  • By the way, the recoil of some weapons was adjusted at the start of Season 13. This includes SMGs, which now play significantly better, especially on controllers.

Special Weapon: The star of the loadout is the grenade launcher Plunderer Salvo. This is claimed to be the best legendary add-clear weapon, according to the pro (without Warmind Cells). The breach-loader adds arc damage and decimates entire hordes through its chain reaction explosion.

  • You receive the quest weapon through a quest in Season 13. Here, MeinMMO shows you how to complete it quickly: How to quickly get the new grenade launcher in Destiny 2 – How strong is it?
  • The weapon always has fixed perks, basically an inbuilt god roll.
  • However, according to Ehroar, it is a myth that the mod “Dragonfly Spec” makes the weapon even stronger (via YouTube) – but Plunderer Salvo doesn’t need that at all.
  • You can, however, use mods like “Explosive Rounds” to quickly charge with light and become even stronger.

Power Weapon: Since you have the exotic slot free, you have a lot of room here. The exotic sword the Lament is recommended. This melee monster can heal you, slice through shields and even champion barriers, and if played correctly, the damage goes through the roof.

On the next pages, you will find 2 more weapon combinations that will let you decimate everything and that the pro swears by. One loadout evokes nostalgic memories – of the time before Beyond Light.

FIFA 21: Hurry up – This is how you get Guendouzi without coins

The What-If Event in FIFA 21 brought a strong card for Mattéo Guendouzi. You can obtain him through the Guendouzi challenges without coins – but not for too long.

This is “What If” Guendouzi: The Frenchman is under contract with Hertha BSC and fits perfectly into Bundesliga teams. Additionally, he provides good linking opportunities to other leagues.

His new What-If card has received a substantial upgrade of a full 10 points compared to the gold version. The new variant is perfectly suited for the CDM position and has particularly strong values in defense, physicality, passing, and dribbling.

Thus, he is suitable as a destroyer but also as a ball distributor for the offense. If equipped with a Shadow chemistry style, he is the ideal CDM.

This is how long the card is available: You need to hurry with Guendouzi. The challenges are only available until March 11.

FIFA 21 What If Guendouzi challenges
The midfielder requires some effort but no coins

What-If Upgrade possible: The What-If cards receive an upgrade of 2 additional overall points if your club achieves certain goals. In Guendouzi’s case, Hertha BSC must score 6 goals in a total of 5 matches.

  • In the first match, Hertha already scored 2 goals, so 4 are still missing.
  • The upcoming matches are against Dortmund, Leverkusen, Union Berlin, and Gladbach.

The Hertha matches have not been very high-scoring lately, but there was a 2:1 victory against Augsburg. In the table, the Berlin team is in 14th place. The upcoming schedule is not the easiest – theoretically, however, just one goal per game is enough to secure Guendouzi the upgrade.

Sometimes it can happen quickly. What-If-Fer received an upgrade after his team won 6:0.

But even without further upgrades, Guendouzi is worth it. The midfielder can be obtained without the use of coins.

How to complete the Guendouzi challenges in FIFA 21 for the What-If card

This is what you need to do: In total, there are 5 challenges to complete for Guendouzi. All of them take place in the friendly match mode “What If – Classic”.

  • Score in 2 separate matches in the Live FUT Friendly “What If – Classic” with Bundesliga players.
  • Score in 3 separate matches in the Live FUT Friendly “What If – Classic” with midfielders.
  • Assist in the Live FUT Friendly “What If – Classic” for 5 goals with French players.
  • Win 5 matches in the Live FUT Friendly “What If – Classic”.
  • Score in 10 separate matches in the Live FUT Friendly “What If – Classic” with Bundesliga players.
FIFA 21 Guendouzi What if
The mode has some restrictions

Tips for the Guendouzi challenges: The “What If – Classic” mode has two access restrictions. You need 11 clubs in the starting eleven, as well as at least 3 leagues.

Looking at the challenges, it’s advisable to bring the combination of “Bundesliga” and “France” onto the pitch as often as possible – especially in the offense.

Examples of French players in the Bundesliga:

  • Moussa Diaby (LM) – Leverkusen
  • Kingsley Coman (LM) – Bayern
  • Lucas Hernandez (CB) – Bayern
  • Alassane Plea (ST) – Gladbach
  • Dayot Upamecano (CB) – Leipzig
  • Nordi Mukiele (RB) – Leipzig
  • Christopher Nkunku (ST) – Leipzig
  • Baptiste Santamaria (CDM) – Freiburg
  • Jean-Philippe Mateta (ST) – Mainz
  • Mattéo Guendouzi (CDM) – Hertha BSC

Remember that you can only use one player from each club. Otherwise, fill your team with additional Bundesliga players for the challenges and chemistry. However, make sure to incorporate at least two other leagues.

Use loan players: In the friendly match mode, you can use loan players without losing contracts. So if you have top players like Mbappé or Icons in the loan version, bring them into play here.

Moreover, it pays off to play offensively. Often, players in friendly matches give up early, as this has no effect on any ranks or rewards in Live Friendlies.

Are you looking for more players for your team? Then here is a selection of the best players under 100,000 coins in FIFA 21.

According to the pro: This will be the next OP weapon in CoD Warzone – When it comes

The yet to be properly released submachine gun CX-9 can be played in Call of Duty: Warzone with a lot of luck. And the CoD pro NICKMERCS is convinced that everyone will only play this weapon after trying it out, if it should indeed come.

This is the weapon in question: It is about the CX-9. This is a fast-firing submachine gun – apparently still from the time of Modern Warfare. Because it can, among other things, be unlocked and used in the co-op survival mode of CoD: Modern Warfare.

The special thing about this weapon: In Warzone or in Multiplayer of Modern Warfare, this weapon has not properly appeared yet. Currently, you cannot unlock, upgrade, and use the CX-9 there. Whether it will be completely released there at some point is unclear.

But with luck, you can already take it into the Battle Royale since the start of Season 2. And the consensus is: The gun packs a punch, and it would definitely count as top-tier; some even consider it OP.

This is how you currently get the CX-9 in Warzone: In Warzone, you can currently only find the weapon in a special version, namely in the form of the Serac blueprint – and only with extreme luck. It drops very rarely from the also rare orange/golden loot crates. It is also said to exist as a very rare “ground loot”.

Here is the rare Serac blueprint

If it is even close to how it is now, you won’t see anything else

This is what NICKMERCS says about the CX-9: Now the well-known streamer and CoD pro NICKMERCS has finally been able to try the weapon himself and was very excited – but also nervous, as he admits. Because regarding the weapon, the meta apparently worries him.

“I was only able to use the thing for half the game, but you can see why it’s so hard to get it,” says NICKMERCS almost reverently in his latest video. “The thing is a laser, at all distances. It has a crazy TTK (Time to Kill) that exceeds everything,” he continues.

“I look forward to when this weapon lands in Warzone, but I am also nervous again. If it’s even close to how it is now, you won’t see anything else on the map,” he concludes.

Here you see NICKMERCS with the CX-9 in action:

When will the weapon come? That is not clear. Not even if it will ever be completely introduced – that is, in the regular version apart from the Serac blueprint.

But as mentioned: With luck, you can currently play with the weapon in Battle Royale. And if you actually manage to get the CX-9 into your hands during a match, make sure to try it out. Right now it is really OP and definitely worth it – regardless of whether this potential top weapon eventually comes or not.

Have you been lucky enough to get your own picture of this submachine gun? What are your experiences with this gun? Would you like to see a regular introduction in Warzone?

By the way, if this comes to pass, the CX-9 could then also come into play regularly: According to leak: CoD Modern Warfare gets another season – with these contents

The largest streamer on Twitch cheats in GTA 5 – Super-Server bans him

The Twitch streamer Félix “xQc” Lengyel (25) simply cannot play nicely with others. He has now been banned from the popular roleplay server for GTA 5 Online “No Pixel 3.0” after he exploited a glitch and shot two police officers from within a prison cell. As a result, the most-watched streamer on Twitch is now banned from the most-viewed game in March 2021.

This is the situation:

  • The server “No Pixel 3.0” is a privately run roleplay server for GTA 5, here many big streamers play on Twitch like Sodapoppin. This makes the ancient GTA Online 2021 once again the hottest game on Twitch, ahead of LoL, Fortnite, and Valorant.
  • The streamer xQc is by far the most-watched streamer on Twitch in recent days, playing GTA 5.
  • xQc is regarded as the “bad boy” of Twitch, who cannot follow any rules. “No Pixel” is a server that places great importance on rules and kicks players who do not adhere to these rules.
  • After an escapade, xQc received his second ban from the server, causing a lot of attention. There is hardly a bigger topic over the weekend than “xQc banned.”

xQc smuggles a gun into the prison cell and starts shooting

This is what xQc did: The streamer was arrested in GTA 5 by other players. xQc used a glitch to equip a gun while in handcuffs, even though it had been confiscated from him.

In the cell at the police station, xQc then drew the weapon and took out two police officers with headshots. This caused an uproar.

The recently returned streamer Esfand reacted quickly with a ninja roll and shot xQc in the cell. He received a lot of applause for this.

The scene looks particularly amusing because the stocky Esfand, a former football player, has made his character Cornwood quite fat.

Esfand watches the scene in a replay and can hardly contain his laughter, as the stocky cop first stands in the corner to do his business and then takes out the criminal with a “John Wick” roll and a headshot.

“Selfish and only thinking of himself”

Why is this causing an uproar? xQc’s behavior actually outrages some viewers. A reddit thread on the topic has over 1,600 comments.

xQc clearly “cheated” in this scene – this is against the roleplay rules. The cops said: “We searched him thoroughly”: He shouldn’t have had any weapons in the cell.

Exploiting glitches is already frowned upon, but it is particularly taboo on roleplay servers. There are clear rules that everyone knows and takes seriously.

Furthermore, it is roleplay-wise difficult to explain how the cops could get back up and continue after headshots. xQc actively and significantly interfered in their roleplay.

Moreover, it seems completely unrealistic that a criminal in the cell simply commits double police murder: How would the roleplay have continued from there?

Other streamers do not want to end up as victims in YouTube clips

xQc’s behavior is generally viewed critically. One of the “shot” cops is the popular Twitch streamer MOONMOON. He says: He has no interest in being exploited by xQc to create YouTube clips from his misconduct and contribute to xQc becoming even more popular.

MOONMOON says: xQc acts so badly only because he wants attention. He is deliberately looking to get banned. No normal person would behave like that. It is selfish and reckless.

No one behaves like you do. I refuse to believe it. I no longer want to be part of this. […] I refuse to be farmed for “xQc gets banned from No Pixel 3.0” clips on YouTube.

MOONMOON

This also ties into xQc’s previous behavior: He is known for being a terrible loser and simply not adhering to rules that should apply to everyone.

xQc banned from No Pixel for “a few days”

This is the consequence of the ban: xQc has been banned from the server for his behavior.

xQc himself wrote on Discord: He is banned for “a few days”, during which his character will go on a cruise (via twitter).

However, the clip has brought him a lot of attention: xQc is by far the most-watched streamer on Twitch. Fans enjoy his behavior as the “bad boy.”

This is the first time xQc has been banned from No Pixel at the end of February. He crashed into other players with his car and then fled the scene. This misconduct is known as VDM, “Vehicle Death Match.”

xQc feels harassed by cops

This is what xQc says: He apologizes for his behavior:

“What I did … is terrible. I should be banned for this, and I have been banned for this.”

xQc

xQc also admits that he would be furious if another person behaved that way toward him.

But xQc also believes that he was merely defending himself. He was already angry and past the “point of no return” in that situation.

He accuses the “cop” streamers on the server of taking far too long when arresting him or interacting with him. Or they would arrest him without engaging in any form of roleplay.

He believes: Cop streamers would intentionally take their time to have xQc in their streams and benefit from his fame.

Therefore, he finds it actually okay for him to defend himself in this way. Because this behavior of the cop streamers is just boring and no one likes it.

Twitch-Punk enters peaceful Rust – shroud: “I would kick xQc”
von Schuhmann

This is what it’s about: This is the same conflict that xQc had on the Rust roleplay server. xQc constantly wants action and to give his fans something. Therefore, he often takes on the role of a “bad boy” and imposes his style of fast action on other streamers. In doing so, he is not so concerned about the rules and streams of others. He mainly focuses on himself and his audience.

Other streamers who play by the “rules” apparently feel harassed by this.

xQc functions as an accelerant on Twitch: There’s a lot going on and there’s plenty of spectacle, but eventually, the place is burned down.

The streamer xQc shapes the current events on Twitch like hardly anyone else. Meanwhile, the former Overwatch pro still grapples with the platform, even though he once said, “The Twitch chat raised him”:

Streamer is incredibly successful, but Twitch culture is driving him crazy.

The older WoW: Shadowlands gets, the more I like it

Cortyn from MeinMMO enjoys the long pause before the next WoW patch. Because this way, there is time to have fun without any pressure.

WoW: Shadowlands has been released for over three months now, and slowly but surely, all players have seen all the content. But instead of getting bored, I enjoy the game even more. Because the more “exhausted” the current content is, the more freely I can approach content that I genuinely enjoy.

So for me, it’s true: The longer Shadowlands is out, the more fun I have with the game.

The amount of mandatory content shrinks

With each passing week, the amount of content I consider “mandatory” shrinks. In the early days and weeks, it was still important for me to complete every single class quest to maximize reputation with the factions. My weekly visits to Torghast to collect soul ash have become rare outings since I no longer depend on the ash. The weekly completion of missions in the Maw to collect soul ash and Stygia is also coming to an end, as I actually don’t need either anymore.

WoW Sylvanas Shadowlands model before bfa screen titel title 1280x720

This means I have complete freedom after logging in to do what I like. I used to always have that annoying voice in the back of my head pushing me to gather soul ash, farm Stygia once more, or finish that one world quest with the bonus reputation.

That is now completely absent. I can log in, think about what I would like to “work” on, and what goals I want to pursue. Especially with Anima, you can buy so many different things that I really enjoy the selection.

Again, the rule applies that one sets small goals to achieve. I don’t indulge myself in the illusion of having collected 300,000 Anima soon to buy everything. But maybe here I can spend 5,000 for a weapon or there a little 2,500 for a cool back transmog – that’s definitely doable.

I can also spend more time on pet battles again and catch up on some of the old pet battle dungeons from which I am still missing some rewards. This has been lacking much too long in the last months and now finally has space again.

A few obligations remain

Of course, I still have a few “mandatory appointments” that I have chosen for myself. After all, I am raiding heroically, and so far Denathrius still refuses to give up the ghost or give me Ramona Remornia as a sword. It will surely be a few weeks before he finally bites the dust, and that obligation also falls away.

WoW Female Mage Angry Cower title
There’s sometimes a bit of trouble in dungeons – luckily, it is always the others’ fault.

And then there’s Mythic+.

My group is certainly not part of the gaming elite at world rank level, but we try to make the best of it despite a rather relaxed play style. Currently, we have reached the range of “M+13” – with the goal of being able to finish M+15 in all dungeons from our own strength before patch 9.1 Chains of Domination to score the mount. Everyone is engaged and ready to improve without it degenerating into cliché “tryharding”.

Every week there’s a little improvement for one or two dungeons – it’s a mid-term goal, we are not in a hurry. Just a rather cozy approach to progress, without directly sitting on our hands.

More freedom, less pressure

Currently, everything feels much “freer” in WoW: Shadowlands for me. I can decide for myself what content I tackle and I no longer feel the pressure to lag behind in anything relevant if I let it slide for a day or two. My virtual wardrobe is definitely happy about the transmog sets that are being completed, and my pet collection is about to burst at the seams.

WoW Patch 91 Chains of Domination titel title 1280x720
Patch 9.1 is still far away.

Even though the prospect of having to wait several more months for patch 9.1 Chains of Domination annoys some players immensely – I like it. A few months of peace, where nothing in WoW is running away and I can calmly do only what I really want to do.

I believe this would be beneficial to me and the game on a regular basis. And also to players who are similar to me.

What are you currently doing in WoW? Are you bored? Or are you using the quieter weeks to pursue personal goals?

After all, patch 9.1 looks really good – even if there is some hate.

Not only Steam hit Valheim lets you swing the Viking axe: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla was released back in November 2020 but still seems to attract a lot of players.

The game from Ubisoft transports you to medieval England, where the well-known AC formula is implemented a bit differently than usual. One difference from before is the new quests that are set up more like small mini-events.

MeinMMO author Jürgen Horn has shown himself to be a fan of the game – especially when played like an MMO.

3. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHzuHo80U2M

The new Spider-Man spin-off was one of the games heavily promoted before the PS5 launched – apparently with success. Because in February, the single-player adventure secured the third spot in the PS5 charts.

The game does not focus on the original web-slinger Peter Parker but on the young Miles Morales, who evolves from a substitute wall-crawler to a real superhero. Once again, you can swing through the beautifully designed New York, which this time shines in a Christmas look and benefits greatly from a new graphics mode on the PS5. Spider-Man: Miles Morales impresses not only with great visuals and entertaining gameplay but also with a really good story.

4. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War

Rainbow Six Siege is the oldest title in the top 5 of the new list but still manages to attract a lot of players. It’s a tactical team shooter where you face off as attackers and defenders.

Rank 6 – 20 of the most downloads on PS5 in February 2021

Below the top 5 are additional titles likely to interest multiplayer players. In 6th place, for instance, is Mortal Kombat 11 – a beat ’em up where you can challenge each other. In 9th place is Borderlands 3, a wild looter-shooter with an unbelievable number of weapons and just as many jokes. No Man’s Sky also secured a spot on the list.

Additionally, single-player games such as Demon’s Souls or Immortals Fenyx Rising are included.

Destiny 2 offers Exotics via Twitch Prime – Here’s how to get the March drop

Are you a member of Amazon Prime or Prime Gaming? Then you can now snag some exotic rewards for Destiny 2. MeinMMO explains how basically anyone can secure this Twitch Prime loot for free and shows which items are available in March 2021.

What is Twitch Prime loot? Bungie has been collaborating with Prime Gaming for another year since November 2020. If you have an active “Amazon Prime” and/or “Prime Gaming” membership, you can claim some additional in-game rewards for Destiny 2 on all platforms – mostly Exotics.

In total, there are 12 monthly drops, each offering four special rewards – including exotic weapons, ghost shells, ships, sparrows, weapon ornaments, emotes, or other cosmetics from previous seasons.

Destiny 2 – The Twitch Loot in March

When can I get the new Twitch items? The March drop is currently available. It is already live and can be claimed – until March 24.

The following items are included this time: The March drop includes:

  • the legendary ghost projection “Imperial Projection”
  • the exotic gesture “Six Chambers”
  • the exotic sparrow “Warhorse”
  • the exotic ship “The Oviraptor”
The March drop from Twitch Prime

How to access Twitch loot

As an Amazon Prime member: If you are a member of Amazon Prime, you automatically get access to Twitch Prime. The only thing you need to do (if not already done): Log in there and link your accounts. Alternatively, you can also register directly with Prime Gaming.

If you are a Prime member and have already linked your Twitch account to your Bungie account, you can then go directly to the Prime Gaming site. Log in and look for Destiny 2 in “In-Game Loot and More” – it’s hard to miss. Then navigate to new content. There you can claim them.

If, as a Prime member, you haven’t linked your Bungie account with Amazon yet, you can do that on this page.

Without a Prime membership: Even without a previous Prime membership, you can still get this loot. Because Amazon Prime and/or Prime Gaming can be tested free and without restriction for 30 days. You can register for this on this page. The only requirement: You have not already utilized the free trial.

But note: Make sure to cancel this service before the 30 days expire if you do not wish to continue using it. Because afterwards, monthly fees of €7.99 will apply.

Amanda Holliday: She provides the items in the game

Where can I find the items in the game? After you have claimed the loot on the Prime Gaming site, you need to visit Amanda Holliday in the Tower Hangar in-game. She will hand you the respective items.

What do you think of the March drop? Is there anything in there that you absolutely want because you missed it before? Are you completely new, and thus every new exotic item is welcome? Or can you generally do nothing with such actions?

Genshin Impact: In Patch 1.4 you can date Barbara and your other favorites

In Genshin Impact, Patch 1.4 is coming soon. It brings a lot of new mini-games – and at the same time the opportunity to take four of the characters on a date.

The developers of miHoYo are continuing to work hard to bring new content to the RPG Genshin Impact. In a few days, the release of Patch 1.4 is coming, and it is sure to bring a lot of spring feelings into the world of Teyvat. There will not only be a nice festival in Mondstadt, but also the option to spend a little “special time” with your favorite characters.

What is the Windblume Festival? In addition to several quests, the Windblume Festival mainly consists of several mini-games that you can participate in to earn various rewards.

These include:

  • Running a course while dodging obstacles.
  • A flying test where you must demonstrate your gliding skills.
  • Catching falling petals.
  • Shooting balloons charged with various elements.

So there should be something entertaining for all players.

Are there any prerequisites? Yes. As usual, they are quite low, and most players should be able to participate without any problems. To celebrate the Windblume Festival, you must have reached adventure level 20 and completed the Archon quest “The Song of the Dragon and Freedom.” This is essentially the first act of the game and temporarily concludes the storyline about Mondstadt.

You can go on dates: A highlight for everyone who really enjoys the characters in Genshin Impact is the opportunity to take some of the characters on a date. These are special, small events where you spend a bit of private time with the respective character. At the beginning, this will only be possible with four characters. These are:

  • Barbara
  • Noelle
  • Bennett
  • Chongyun

Especially interesting: These dates have different paths and lead to various stations and resolutions, depending on the player’s decisions. Who knows if such a date will turn into a romantic highlight or just a chaotic day full of terrible coincidences?

If your favorites are not included – no worries. In the future, such events should also be possible with other characters. These are just the first four that made it into the game.

When does Patch 1.4 come out? The patch will be released next week, on March 17, 2021. As usual, events are expected to be gradually unlocked over the following days.

New Character and World Level Changes

Patch 1.4 brings even more than just this event. There are new characters and also quite cool settings that should help frustrated players.

Genshin Impact Rosaria Ice Queen
Rosaria impresses – naturally also visually.

This is Rosaria: As a new character comes Rosaria, a 4-star figure. She carries the title “Thorny Benevolence.” Rosaria is, like Barbara, a sister in the Church of Favonius and appeared in the last patch. She uses the Cryo element and wields a polearm. With her elemental skill, she can quickly switch between multiple enemies.

World level can be lowered: What is likely to be good news for many players: You can now lower the world level. So far, the world level automatically increases with your adventure rank or after completing a certain mission. You then had no way to reduce the level. This meant tougher enemies and better loot, but possibly also more frustration. Because for those who don’t have optimized equipment yet, dealing with an increased world level is difficult.

In Patch 1.4, you can therefore manually lower the world level – both in solo and in co-op mode.

Are you excited about the new patch? Which feature are you particularly looking forward to?

With these 3 solo builds, you can achieve anything in ESO on your own

The MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) offers a lot of challenging content. For those of you who enjoy tackling it alone, we have the best solo classes for you.

In ESO, it is possible to play every class in every role – as a damage dealer, healer, or tank. You also have the freedom to use any conceivable weapon or armor.

This can make it difficult to find the right combination for yourself. The YouTuber Lucky Ghost has taken it upon himself to do some of that work for you.

Over the last few months, he has tested and refined all his solo builds, so he could create a video about his own tier list. There, you’ll find his best solo classes, and today we want to present his three top recommendations.

Of course, this is just a selection, and depending on your own preferences, other classes can also perform well solo. We at MeinMMO want to share Lucky Ghost’s tips with you here. According to the YouTuber, the builds are also suitable for really challenging content.

Due to FIFA 21, everyone is currently celebrating a 6:0 in Holland – Strong upgrade is coming

If you don’t have Leroy Fer in FIFA 21, you should consider getting the What-If card. An incredible game in the Eredivisie guaranteed this affordable player an upgrade.

That’s why FIFA players are currently watching the Eredivisie: Normally, only fans of the Dutch “Eredivisie” would likely be interested in the match between Feyenoord Rotterdam and VVV Venlo. But in FIFA 21, the “What-If event” is happening, bringing several cards that receive an upgrade if their team achieves certain goals in the real football world.

For offensive and midfield players, 6 goals must be scored within the next 5 league games. This creates excitement, as many players follow the clubs of their cards for several weeks – even if they aren’t actually fans of the club. But players who have got Leroy Fer can now stop.

FIFA 21 Leroy Fer
Leroy Fer is already a strong card – and will get even better

That’s why Leroy Fer is a special case: For Fer’s What-If card, you don’t even need pack luck, you can simply get the player through a Squad Building Challenge. This requires only an 84-rated team and offers an 85-rated midfield card that is strong in all important stats. And the upgrade of the player by two points to 87 is now also already certain.

Because his club, Feyenoord Rotterdam, located in the South Holland region, crushed their opponent right away with a 6:0 at the first opportunity. Players Toornstra (scored twice), Geertruida, Linssen, Berghuis, and Bottegin gifted VVV Venlo the six goals. Fer didn’t even need to score himself.

Therefore, the question of a possible upgrade was quickly resolved, it should go live next Wednesday.

FIFA 21 Leroy Fer SBC
For the Leroy Fer SBC, you only need an 84-rated team

The nice thing about it: The SBC for Fer is still available until March 9. So you can still get the card now, even though it’s already clear that an upgrade is coming.

FIFA players celebrate, Leroy Fer celebrates too

This is how the community reacts: If you look at the FIFA subreddit, you can see that Feyenoord has likely gained a few fans at least temporarily.

  • “The crazy ones actually did it,” cheers one player (via reddit).
  • “Confirmed: The Feyenoord team consists of FIFA players,” comments one (via reddit), while another takes it a step further: “Confirmed: The VVV-Venlo team consists of FIFA players” (via reddit).
  • “I started the SBC when they were already 4 goals ahead. By the time I finished, it was 6” (via reddit).

This is what Leroy Fer says: Leroy Fer himself also spoke via the Feyenoord Twitter account.

“Hey guys, 6:0 win today. I hope you enjoyed it!” says Fer, holding a real version of his card in front of the camera: “My stats are going up! I hope you use my card in FIFA!”

At least the card should be a pretty good option for players betting on Dutch teams or those needing a strong substitute.

Are you still looking for more players for your Ultimate Team? Then you can find some really strong players under 100,000 coins in FIFA 21.
