In Pokémon GO the legendary lake trio is back and through remote raids you have the chance to catch Selfe and Tobutz. However, you will need international friends for that. We will show you how to get them.
This is happening right now: The legendary lake trio Selfe, Tobutz, and Vesprit is back in Pokémon GO. The problem is: In Germany, there is only Vesprit. Tobutz appears in North and South America and Selfe can be found in Asia and Oceania.
Since the summer, there has been the option of remote raids. So you could battle Selfe and Tobutz if you have friends in the respective regions who invite you.
Finding such friends can be quite tricky. Therefore, we will show you ways to find friends for these remote raids easily.
International Raids – How to succeed
How can that work? There are various platforms where you can team up with other trainers. The best platform for international raids is probably Pokéraid.
You can download Pokéraid for free from the PlayStore or from the Apple Store. Then you can proceed as follows:
Register in the app – You will need an email address, your trainer name, your level, and your friend code
Then the raiding can begin. Numerous raids will appear on the page, which you can join – but you must be quick, otherwise, the lobby will be full
Alternatively, you can set up automatic invitations – but you will need to have earned coins in the app beforehand
Once you are in a lobby in the app, add the group leader and they will invite you to the raid
Then the raid can begin
This is what the overview looks like at Pokéraid raids.
This also works not just for Selfe and Tobutz. You can complete any high-level raids with it and even set up your own raids.
How to find international friends: If you do not want to rely on the app, you can also add international friends and raid remotely with them. But you will need some luck to be invited to raids by a corresponding friend.
Of course, there are dozens of other sites that will get you raids and international friends. Here we have compiled more information on how to effectively make new friends in Pokémon GO:
Amazon has been trying to establish itself in the gaming scene for some time. A new MMO based on The Lord of the Rings is on the list. New information about the beta and release has now emerged, which we want to share with you.
What kind of MMO is this? We reported on the new “Lord of the Rings” MMO back in July 2019 on MeinMMO. The game was originally developed solely by the Chinese company Leyou Technologies. However, Amazon eventually joined in.
With the new MMO in the Lord of the Rings universe, we can expect a Free2Play MMO, typical for the Chinese market. And it’s not just for the PC, but also for consoles.
If we take a look at the story, we find ourselves chronologically before the famous films and books. This way, any potential conflicts with the existing MMORPG The Lord of the Rings Online are avoided.
The MMO is being developed, at least from Amazon’s side, by the same studio that is currently working on New World. Now, documents have been released that provide more information about the new “Lord of the Rings” MMO.
How the new MMO will differ from The Lord of the Rings Online (shown here) remains to be seen
The release sooner than expected
What data is confirmed for the MMO? It seems that the “Lord of the Rings” MMO is already further along than we thought. The first concepts for the races and classes are said to have been finalized since June 2020. So maybe we will see more about the MMO soon.
Furthermore, the complete lore and story are to be finalized on January 11, 2021, and a first playable prototype is to be ready by June 1, 2021. The “Lord of the Rings” MMO plans to proceed as follows:
Closed beta for PC starting September 30, 2022
Open beta for PC starting January 1, 2023
Launch for consoles also in 2023, within the first 12 months after the start of the open beta for PC
After Amazon had a rather difficult start with its games, the new information could bring hope to fans of The Lord of the Rings. Since there hadn’t been any movement on job postings for the new MMO for a while, we at MeinMMO were concerned that the next Amazon game could be canceled.
Where does the information come from? On Leyou’s homepage (via leyoutech.com), some documents have been published for inspection. Included is an agreement for collaboration between Leyou and Amazon as well as for the joint development of the game (via leyoutech.com).
Additionally, a license agreement (via leyoutech.com) secures the rights for the developers to work with the Tolkien material. The TV show that Amazon is planning for The Lord of the Rings is also mentioned.
Besides some changes made to the license through deletions, the aforementioned timeline is particularly interesting.
As soon as the new expansion World of Warcraft for Blizzard’s MMORPG Shadowlands is released, the developers are already announcing new content in an interview with GameStar. In 2021, there will be a raid with a unique boss encounter.
What comes after Shadowlands? The new adventures of the WoW expansion Shadowlands are not over even after the content. Because Blizzard is already working on further content.
As Game Director Ion Hazzikostas revealed to the colleagues from Gamestar, WoW fans can look forward to a new raid in 2021.
New raid with a unique boss encounter
What kind of raid is this? The raid is supposed to offer a very special boss encounter. Ion Hazzikostas explains:
The encounter team is already working on the next raid. All I can say so far is that the final boss encounter will provide one of the most unique settings ever seen in a raid encounter in WoW. (…) This will blow some people away.
Ion Hazzikostas, Game Director of WoW
When will the raid come? Initially, on December 9, a raid will take you to Castle Nathria, which represents the stronghold of the dark lord Count Denathrius.
This raid should keep you busy for about three months. After that, the new raid with the special boss fight will be introduced. This means you can expect the raid around March 2021.
What else is planned after Shadowlands? According to Ion Hazzikostas, the new covenants will not be introduced as allied races. However, more allied races could come into the game. At least the team is considering it.
New professions are also not planned; the developers want to focus on the currently available ones and expand them to make them more relevant for the endgame.
What about a new expansion? Ion Hazzikostas explains that Shadowlands is not the last expansion for World of Warcraft. Initial planning for a new expansion is already underway. However, Blizzard wants to discuss it at a later time.
Initially, the two new raids, a patch, and updates will be released that will continue the story of Shadowlands.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold Warhas a range of weapons, but which of them are statistically the fastest at making good kills according to a well-known YouTuber? Find out here at MeinMMO.
Where do the weapon data come from? In the weapon workshop of CoD Black Ops Cold War, you can check useful data for every weapon in the game anytime. However, the popular YouTuber TheXclusiveAce (over 800,000 subscribers) took the effort to thoroughly review almost all the weapons in the game and collect even more data. You can refer to a detailed table here.
From the table, it’s easy to deduce which weapons are currently particularly effective. To save you the work, we have selected three statistically good weapons for you that show strong TTK in multiplayer.
The MP5 is among the best weapons but not in terms of TTK.
What is TTK? TTK stands for “Time to Kill,” which is the time it takes to shoot a fully healthy opponent to the afterlife. In a fast-paced shooter like Cold War, it is very important to quickly take down the opponent in direct firefights.
A theoretically strong weapon with high damage per shot is less effective than a weapon that fires quickly and has a high bullet velocity. Therefore, sniper rifles, which theoretically have a TTK of 0, are not listed here. This discussion is about weapons where a single hit does not determine whether you secure a kill immediately or not.
Weapons with the best TTK – This is how you kill your opponents the fastest
The list of TTK champions consists entirely of burst-fire weapons. Although the MP5 is regarded as the best weapon by many players, it cannot keep up with the strong values of tactical rifles. Especially at launch, the MP5 was so strong that almost everyone used it. However, other weapons win in terms of Time-to-Kill:
Here’s why the weapons are so strong: The reason for the superiority in TTK for the weapons on the list is that the AUG, M16, and KSP 45 have a very powerful burst-fire mode. With just one pull of the trigger, multiple bullets are sent at the opponent, and if they all hit, you are quickly dead.
Why doesn’t everyone play this? This burst-fire playstyle does not suit everyone, and burst rifles are considered relatively unpopular. Moreover, players using a burst fire in close combat are putting everything on one card. Because while TTK is outstanding when you take down your enemy directly, if one bullet misses and the enemy is still standing, you are at a disadvantage with the burst rifle.
Are you looking for even more good weapons for the multiplayer of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War? Then take a look at this alternative to the nerfed MP5. The Russian AK-74u is a strong weapon. In our article on this topic, you will learn everything about the weapon and why you should use it. Have fun!

In Destiny 2 many players struggle against the new raid boss, but with a harmless emote, it can be outsmarted.
Many players struggle against it: On November 21, the new raid from Beyond Light opened its gates. Guardians can venture into the Deep Stone Crypt and once again save the world.
This is far from easy. Although the first players claimed the glorious World’s First after 6 hours, many non-professionals are currently struggling with this endgame activity. The culprit is the very complex mechanics and tricky bosses of the raid for a shooter.
This is how players outsmart the final boss: The final boss fight in the Deep Stone Crypt takes place in an open area. To ensure players never feel safe, the boss unleashes a veritable meteor shower. The only remedy is to take flight, as a hit is lethal.
Unless, of course, one stays “cool”. Players have now discovered that they can simply withstand the meteor shower by freezing themselves through an emote.
For spoiler reasons, you don’t see the raid boss in the title image, but the villainess Eramis.
Check out the situation here in the video:

Pretty absurd, as the emote actually shows how defenseless a frozen Guardian is. While his teammates are dying like flies, 2 Guardians remain motionless and withstand up to 7 of the insta-kills.
This emote makes it possible:
To freeze your Guardian in place, you need the gesture “Freeze Tag”.
Pre-order bonuses were available until November 23 for those who chose at least the Deluxe Edition
In Destiny 2, emotes are officially called gestures. They do not provide any game-changing advantages but allow the character to perform a fun dance or a specific animation.
Just take a moment – This shows the emote “Freeze Tag”.
Well, they are not supposed to affect the game. But gestures often cause trouble:
But even without bugs, emotes cause frustration in PvP – as they allow players to peek around corners in third person and gain an informational advantage.
Those who fear that freezing oneself and standing still is the answer to all fights are mistaken. It currently seems that this only works in the final raid fight and only with this emote.
Recently, there was a leak of the contents of Update 1.2 of Genshin Impact. Now the developer studio miHoYo is suing two players.
What was leaked? Some information from the beta of Update 1.2 of Genshin Impact has come to light. This includes details about the new heroes like Ganyu. However, the beta is subject to an NDA. Therefore, it is not allowed to discuss the contents.
How have the developers reacted? The developer studio miHoYo announced that they have identified two players who apparently shared information from the beta after investigations and tracking.
Legal action is now being initiated against these two players.
Hero Ganyu was revealed through the leak.
Leak leads to lawsuit
Why is there a lawsuit? Not only did the two leakers violate the NDA of Update 1.2, but even the contents of Update 1.1 went public before the release. miHoYo wants to preserve the surprise until the end – also because content can still change before the release of an update, and leaked information could lead to disappointments.
Since content from Update 1.1 has already been leaked, the developer studio is now implementing a zero-tolerance strategy. They want to prevent any further leaks, which is why strict measures are now being taken. This should serve as a lesson to others, who will think twice about publishing information in advance, despite the existence of an NDA.
What does miHoYo say about the situation? The developer studio understands that players want to learn about new developments in the game as soon as possible. However, these are contents that are still in development. It is simply uncertain whether everything will be released as it is.
Therefore, the team asks players not to share any information from betas. Players should also rely on official sources. On Facebook, they state:
In order to give travelers an unforgettable first impression of new versions, our art and music departments invest a lot of energy in producing exciting promotional content. The leak of beta content undermines our hard work and spoils the wonderful surprise for everyone who will see new characters for the first time.
Such actions harm us and all travelers in completely unacceptable ways. For each new version update, we will plan reveals and promotional content for the new characters that everyone wants to see. Please follow our official channels for content releases.
MiHoYo
Do you think the lawsuit is justified or too harsh?
However, miHoYo is not the only developer currently fighting against leaks. There was also a leak with the action RPG Cyberpunk 2077. 20 minutes of gameplay from the PS4 version were released. The leaker is also facing a lawsuit now.

Zlatan Ibrahimović has been part of the FIFA series for years. In FIFA 21, the Swedish striker is also featured. Now, the forward raises the question of who actually allowed this.
What's going on? Zlatan Ibrahimović has had a very long and successful career, which has also been accompanied by the FIFA series for years. He has been part of FIFA 05 and every year since then.
This does not seem to please Ibrahimović very much. The AC Milan player spoke up on Twitter:

Who gave FIFA EA Sports permission to use my name and my face? @FIFpro? I am not aware of being a member of FIFPro, and if I am, I was put there without real knowledge, through some strange maneuver. And I certainly did not allow @FIFAcom or FIFPro to make money by using me.
Someone has been profiting from my name and face all these years without an agreement. Time to investigate.
Zlatan Ibrahimović on Twitter (translated)
FIFPro is a worldwide organization that brings together various players' associations. Among other things, it awards the annual accolade for the best eleven football players of the year, the FIFA FIFPro World XI. In 2013, Ibrahimović was part of the awarded team.
It is also the source of the rights to use real player names and likenesses, as is always displayed at the start of FIFA 21.
Update, November 24, 4 PM – This is what EA says: In a statement on the issue, which MeinMMO has, EA Sports emphasized the long-standing collaboration with FIFPro.
"EA SPORTS FIFA is the world's leading football video game, and to create an authentic experience, we work year after year with numerous leagues, teams, and individual talents to secure the rights to the player identities that are to be included in our game. One of these is a long-standing relationship with the global representative of professional football players, FIFPro, which works with a range of licensors to negotiate agreements that benefit the players and their unions."
Official statement from EA Sports (translated from English)
The topic of licenses has always been important for the FIFA series. After all, it was often the extensive real player and team names that gave them an advantage over, for example, Pro Evolution Soccer. If something changes there, there is always much excitement. It was a big topic when Juventus Turin suddenly had to be renamed Piemonte Calcio.
This year, EA Sports has also entered into an exclusive partnership with clubs like Inter and AC Milan to prevent such occurrences. The latter is Ibrahimović's club. At the beginning of 2017, the Swede was also shown with his FUT card.

Moreover, Ibrahimović commented in an official interview with EA Sports regarding the topics of football and FIFA after the POTM nomination from the tweet. He stated that he plays FIFA with his children, who are big fans of the game. When asked how it feels to be the highest-rated player in the Premier League next to David de Gea, he responded: "I am happy for the fans who have been able to play as me. It also means that I am good in the game, so I am happy!" (via EA Sports)
However, the discussion about names and rights is now making waves. Footballer Gareth Bale also raised the topic in a tweet:

The discussion comes somewhat unexpectedly, as many football players are also very openly using FIFA 21 and other parts of the series on their own channels.
However, the biggest topic in this regard only emerged recently: FIFA 21 has secured the rights to use the now-retired footballer David Beckham in the game, and is supposed to pay a whole lot of money for it.

In Pokémon GO the event surrounding the legendary lake trio has started. We show you all the field research, spawns, and new raid bosses here.
This is the lake event: On November 24 at 8:00 AM the lake event began. It puts the legendary lake trio, Selfe, Tobutz, and Vesprit, in the spotlight and increases the spawn rates of other Pokémon appearing by lakes.
In line with the event, there are new shinies, quests, spawns, and raid bosses. We will give you an overview here.
Field Research, Shinies, and Spawns for the Lake Event
These are the new quests: Overall, there are 4 field researches that revolve around the new event. These include:
Use 5 berries when catching Pokémon
Reward: Encounter with a Chelast, Panflam, or Plinfa (all can be shiny)
Catch 5 Water-type Pokémon
Reward: Encounter with a Goldini (can be shiny)
Win a raid
Reward: Encounter with a Bronzel (can be shiny)
Send 3 gifts to friends
Reward: Encounter with a Staralili
The task surrounding Goldini is worthwhile. It can be completed quickly during the event and brings the new shiny, which everyone is currently hunting.
These are the event spawns: There aren’t really any surprises in the wild. Worthwhile spawns include Goldini, Machollo, Enton, or Schlurp. They can all be shiny and are rather rare outside of events.
Of course, there are also duds in the event, such as Staralili or Bidiza.
These are the new shinies: There are also no surprises here. Shiny Goldini is new to the game and catchable by every trainer. However, there are no other new shinies. For Shiny Goldini, you also need to look closely:
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is releasing its first new map after launch tonight (November 24) and brings it as a 24/7 playlist – Nuketown. To celebrate the cult map, there is also double XP. MeinMMO shows you the details of both and the patch notes of a small update from November 23.
What’s happening today in CoD? In Black Ops Cold War, the first new map after the release is launching today – Nuketown ’84. The map is one of the smallest in CoD history and represents a lot of action and ongoing enemy contact.
To celebrate the newly released map, the developers at Treyarch are also releasing a cool trailer and a double XP event. Here you can find all the information about it and the patch notes for the small update from yesterday (November 23). Here’s the short trailer for the new map:

Nuketown comes today as a 24/7 spectacle with double XP
When does all this start? The new map and the double XP event will kick off at 7 PM our time. Cold War appears to be following a similar schedule as its predecessor Modern Warfare. Again, Tuesday at 7 PM was a popular time for playlist changes or the introduction of new content.
What is Nuketown? The map was part of Black Ops 1, the CoD from 2010, and also appeared in Black Ops 4, which was released in 2018. Nuketown is relatively small and can be well compared to a classic from CoD MW – Shipment.
However, the area is about twice as large, yet still offers a lot of action and little time to catch your breath. The environment resembles a replica of an American small town that is part of a nuclear bomb test facility to illustrate the devastating effects of a nuclear explosion on a small town.
While the version from BO4 or CoD Mobile looked clean and almost polished, you’ll receive a damaged and broken environment with Nuketown ’84:
Nuketown in CoD Mobile
Nuketown in Cold War
Will Nuketown stay 24/7? The developers also announced that Nuketown will come as a 24/7 playlist. However, it is currently unclear how Treyarch will handle this this year.
It is possible that the mode will go into the “Featured” playlist category and disappear with the next playlist update. Last year it was a problem for many players that “Shipment 24/7” was not always available. However, there are no statements from the developers about how long the chaos map will be available as a 24/7 mode.
Double Rank and Weapon XP runs until November 30
Details about the double XP event? As a cherry on top of the new map, CoD offers double experience points. It is already the second double XP phase, but this time it lasts not just 48 hours.
From tonight (November 24) at 7 PM you can earn double XP for your rank and your weapons until Monday (November 30). The developers did not specify a specific time for the end, but 7 PM is likely again.

What else is there to know? On Monday, November 23, a small update went online, which you didn’t have to download anything for. The developers are continuing to adjust small bugs and broken mechanics that have slipped into the game:
In the mode “Hardpoint,” you now spawn closer to the active hardpoint
In the maps “Crossroads Strike” and “Armada Strike,” the spawns are now more influenced by enemy troops
The perk “Flak Jacket” now works better in Hardcore modes
Black Ops Cold War launched with relatively little content and wants to pace itself like Modern Warfare through a long-term service model. Nuketown represents the first step in this direction that the CoD creators want to continue with Season 1. Find out here what to expect with the season launch on December 10.

The Playstation 5 is currently completely sold out according to Sony – and not everyone who would like to have one of the consoles was able to buy one. This is also due to so-called scalpers who have snatched thousands of consoles from players and are now offering them at exorbitant prices.There has now been an insight into their network.
What is the current situation regarding the PS5? It is currently almost impossible to get one of the next-gen consoles through normal means – be it the PS5 or the Xbox Series X. The first pre-orders were immediately sold out, with further waves also. All available copies were gone within minutes.
A bot user from a scalper network proudly stated that they managed to grab more than 3,000 PS5 consoles:
Source: Business Insider
A member of the scalper group CrepChiefNotify mentioned that all members together were able to grab over 3,500 consoles. This means they might have more stock than some regular retailers.
This phenomenon, however, is not limited to electronics. Did you try to get a pop-up or inflatable swimming pool this summer because the vacation fell through due to Corona? Pools were offered at astronomical prices, if any were even available.
Making profits with bots
How did this situation come about? Some blame the aforementioned so-called scalpers. They use bots to buy up entire stocks of consoles, graphics cards, and processors from retailers in seconds. These devices are then resold at exorbitant prices, for example through eBay. The magazine Business Insider spoke with members of such a scalper network and uncovered how they operate.
According to Avo, the operator of a scalper network, it started this year with the poor availability of the Nintendo Switch. Nintendo stated that production had to be scaled back due to the Corona pandemic, while at the same time demand skyrocketed as people sought entertainment at home during the lockdown.
Throughout June and July, we were able to sell the Nintendo Switch with over 100% profit.
Anything that is limited in supply but highly sought after will fetch a higher resale price. In the resale space, the margin is sometimes hundreds of dollars difference. Multiply that with the use of software like AIO Bot to snag 10/100/1000 units, and then do the math – that’s a lot of profit.
Alex Kabbara, VP of AIO Bot
Alex Kabbara offers a scalper bot that is sold for $325. With this bot, it is possible to scan the internet within seconds for online stores that have hard-to-find products in stock and to buy these items instantly.
According to Kabbara, scalpers using his bot have been able to use their profits to buy new cars and even houses.
Here, Avo agrees:
I have heard that our users are making profits in the five-digit range. That is not so easy for everyone.
Avo, operator of a scalper network
Corona favors scalping
Did you get a PS5? Scalpers were able to grab thousands of consoles.
Who are these resellers? According to Alex Kabbara, they are mostly men aged between 18 and 30. Often younger individuals are also involved. According to him, scalpers are usually people who have been hit hard by the pandemic and do not have well-paying jobs.
Operators of scalper networks like Avo agree. A combination of job loss and more free time is said to have led to a greater number of scalpers this year, but also that already active scalpers were simply able to invest more time.
How do scalpers manage to buy so quickly? The manager of the scalper group CrepChiefNotify only explains: “We know where we need to go before the announcements are made.”
CrepChiefNotify offers the service to anyone who subscribes. This starts at £29.99 and goes up to £399.99. Members are supported by the service to quickly snag highly sought-after goods to resell them at a high profit.
And CrepChiefNotify is just one of several such scalper groups that are constantly competing to see who can grab the most PS5 consoles, RTX graphics cards, or other limited availability products.
Scalper “Cibbers” explains that the scene is currently benefiting from the Corona situation. Since almost no products can be offered in stores and significantly more is being sold online, scalpers using bots simply have better chances of snatching a large portion of the allotment. Therefore, it has become extremely difficult for regular buyers to get a PS5, Xbox Series X, or even one of the new graphics cards this year – unless they pay inflated prices to resellers.

A new promo code in November 2020 for Pokémon GO is here. Together with Verizon, the game is giving away 4 clothing items. Here’s how to redeem it on iOS and Android.
What kind of code is this? In collaboration with Verizon, Pokémon GO is offering you new gifts this November, which you can redeem in the game using a code on Android or iOS.
Verizon is a US telecommunications company.
The new code is:
LRQEV2VZ59UDA
What gifts are available? This promo code is a bit different from the last ones you could redeem. Because as a reward, there are no balls or stardust. Instead, you’ll receive clothing for your avatar.
These are two black masks and two jackets. The masks are black with red accents and the jacket is black/gray with a red hook in the middle. There are versions for both male and female characters – hence there are four gifts, but you’ll initially see only two of them.
This is what the new items look like on male avatars in the game
If you like these clothing items and want to unlock them, we’ll now show you how to unlock the clothing for your accounts.
Redeeming the promo code on Android and iOS
How do you redeem the code on Android? Users of an Android device have a straightforward process for entering it.
First, copy the promo code from the top of the article
Now open Pokémon GO and select the shop via the Pokéball in the center
Scroll all the way down in the shop
Here you will find the field for entering the code
Paste the copied code there and click redeem
How do you redeem the promo code on iOS? On iOS devices like iPhones, redeeming the code is somewhat more complicated.
Where can I find the clothing in the game? Equipping the clothing is quite simple. Start Pokémon GO and tap on your trainer portrait at the bottom left.
Then tap on the hanger “customize”. Under the “masks” tab, you will find the Verizon mask. In the “tops” section, you will find the Verizon jacket.
How do you like the gift of this promo code? Do you think it’s good that Niantic doesn’t always give away items like balls, but that you can now dress your character for free, or would you have preferred to receive something else? Share your thoughts here on MeinMMO in the comments.
Riot Games has released the first details about the new champion Rell in League of Legends. She is a rider who will be used as a tank support. We at MeinMMO will reveal to you what she can do and when she is expected to enter the game.
What kind of champion is she? Riot Games has unexpectedly announced one of the 3 new planned champions. Rell, the Iron Maiden, is the first character who can mount a steed and charge into battle with it.
Her abilities are also very interesting, as they aim to reduce the opponent’s defenses. Rell can remove armor and magic resistance from enemies.
She will likely be played as a support, where Rell takes on the role of a tank and will deal little damage to enemies.
When does Rell appear? Rell is expected to hit the test servers with the update this week. Thus, a release two weeks later, for patch 10.25, is highly likely.
What can Rell do? Rell can mount a horse with her ability “W” and gain increased movement speed. Afterwards, her “W” transforms into a new ability, turning her horse into a massive shield and launching opponents into the air when dismounting.
Passive – Tradition Break: Rell attacks very slowly but temporarily steals a portion of armor and magic resistance from her target, dealing additional damage based on the stolen amount. Moreover, Rell can strip resistances from multiple different enemies to become extremely resilient herself.
Q – Shatter Strike: Rell thrusts her spear forward, breaking all shields and dealing damage to all enemies hit (the damage decreases after the first target). If Rell has bonded with an ally using her E – Pull and Push, both she and that ally gain health for every champion hit by this ability.
W – Ferromancy: Mount Up (can only be cast in armored form): Rell charges forward and transforms her armor into a steed, significantly increasing her movement speed. On her next attack, she charges her target, dealing additional damage and throwing it over her shoulder. Rell’s movement speed is increased while mounted on her steed. After transformation, this ability changes to Ferromancy: Crash Down.
W – Ferromancy: Crash Down (can only be cast on the steed): Rell leaps into the air and transforms her steed into heavy armor, gaining a massive shield that lasts until destroyed or Rell remounts. Upon landing, she launches all nearby enemies into the air. Rell can use her E – Pull and Push – and her R – Magnet Storm – during the transformation. While in her armored form, her endurance is increased, her movement speed is reduced, and she gains a cap on her movement speed. After transformation, this ability changes to Ferromancy: Mount Up.
E – Pull and Push: Rell uses magnetism to bind part of her armor to an allied champion, granting them additional armor and magic resistance when they are nearby. Rell can reactivate this ability to end the bond and stun all nearby enemies in the line between her and her ally.
R – Magnet Storm: Rell unleashes a magnet storm, violently pulling nearby enemies towards her. After that, she creates a gravitational field that pulls nearby enemies in for a few seconds. The field does not interrupt their other actions.
If you want to check out the abilities already, you can do so in the official blog post or in short videos on Twitter. Just click on the embedded tweet and check out the further replies from League of Legends DE:

Currently, LoL is in Pre-Season 11 and has brought some changes to the items. We have created a guide that tells you which are the best Mythic items right now:
In World of Warcraft the PvP vendor has suddenly disappeared in the Shadowlands expansion. He was just there, now he is gone. But there is a possible explanation for his disappearance.
What happened to the PvP vendor? In the new WoW expansion Shadowlands, there is actually a vendor who sells valuable items in exchange for honor and other PvP achievements as usual. The PvP vendor makes it possible to obtain powerful gear, which is why PvP fans can earn good stuff here.
However, anyone who wanted to visit the vendor shortly after the launch of Shadowlands searched for him in vain. The guy was simply no longer where he was supposed to be just a short time ago. What happened? Did the PvP vendor perhaps fall victim to the Zombie Plague or was it a glitch?
Blizzard intentionally removes the PvP vendor, but he will return
This is what the developers say: In a message from the developers at Blizzard, a statement regarding the disappearance of the PvP vendor has now been issued. The guy was probably intentionally removed from the game:
To resolve an issue with the new PvP vendor of the Shadowlands, we need to temporarily remove him from the game
The vendor will return with the next realm restart.
When will the vendors return? The exact date for the realm restart is not clear, but it should happen by Wednesday, November 25, at the latest in the morning hours along with the restart and the return of the vendor.
Why did the vendor have to go away? Blizzard has not officially commented on this. But a player named Remohe wrote on the site Wowhead in the comments under the embedded Blizzard statement that the honor and conquests from the previous addon Battle for Azeroth were apparently not properly reset.
Therefore, players were able to obtain the powerful level 226 conduits and PvP gear at level 200 from the start of Shadowlands. This would certainly not align with the developers’ intentions, which is why a temporary removal of the PvP vendor here would be a sensible hotfix.
The launch of WoW: Shadowlands took place a few hours ago. Cortyn from MeinMMO found it magnificent and has been playing non-stop.
Yes, I admit it. I stood for hours in front of the actual launch with my Draenei in front of the castle of Stormwind, so I could start right away and have a little advantage over everyone else. I felt a bit like those crazy Apple fans who camp outside the stores to get the latest version of a mobile phone.
I still have the horror stories of past expansions in mind, where players wanted to log in just before the launch and couldn’t because the servers were overloaded. I didn’t want to take that risk, which is why my Draenei stood obediently in Stormwind since 8:00 PM. Of course, together with her tree. That makes sense and is well prepared. At least, I’m telling myself that.
Of course, I wait in tree form for Shadowlands. I have to stay true to my reputation.
The launch of a new expansion for WoW is always a little Christmas for me. No, actually, it’s even better than Christmas. This year, due to the Corona pandemic, that counts double.
Every 2 years is the night of a WoW launch, where “I don’t care about anything.” There are liters of energy drinks, junk food, and we play until our eyes bleed, making my daily rhythm for the rest of the week ruined. But it has to be that way. It’s a fun ritual for me that I still maintain today.
Who is writing here actually?
Cortyn has been writing for MeinMMO for almost 8 years and has been playing World of Warcraft for almost twice as long. When the demon is not hunting for pets and mounts in Azeroth, they engage in roleplay or tackle mythical dungeons with the guild. Also, Cortyn is currently overtired and wants to go to bed.

This is how the launch went: Right at midnight, the quest popped up, and together with the about 100 other players, I immediately stormed through the portal.
Yes, some players complained about missing quest NPCs or chronic overcrowding. But that was to be expected. However, I was part of the “front line” anyway. I already knew the quests from the beta and therefore knew what I had to do. A small advantage that helped me have a bit more breathing room in the hours that followed.
The first hours were magnificent: Even though I already knew Shadowlands from the beta well enough, it’s always a new feeling to finally level a “real” character in the new areas. Every small quest completion that filled my XP bar felt good.
Aside from the fact that many of the errors from the beta are no longer there (anything else would be dumb) and the gaming experience was thus significantly improved.
Was it sometimes too crowded? Definitely. Fortunately, in most areas, there is a relatively quick respawn. Only rarely with certain mobs did you have to wait longer than a minute to take them down. As usually multiple players wanted the same enemy, the fights weren’t particularly hard. But then again, they rarely are in WoW during the leveling phase, unless you’re playing a character blindly.
Apart from Sylvanas, most were in a good mood.
I haven’t ventured into dungeons by the way – neither live nor in the beta. Here I promised my guild colleagues that we would do the first run together one of the upcoming evenings and get to know the dungeons together. I just hope they don’t take too long, as I’m itching to get started.
All in all: The launch was great. I had a lot of fun, and most players I’ve encountered felt similarly. There was a positive atmosphere in the public chat channels, and the one or two sourpusses who always found “everything sucks” got lost in all the positive messages. An atmosphere that makes WoW even more enjoyable.
And now please excuse me, I really need to go to bed. At least that’s what I told my colleagues who are now writing articles for you. I still have a date in Revendreth and am trying to stay awake for another hour or two…
How did you experience the launch? Did you also play nonstop or are you still playing? Or are you waiting with clenched teeth for the workday to finally end? The first player reached max level 60 in Shadowlands after just 3 hours.

On November 19, the PS5 was released in Germany and here too, some units are struggling with errors. We at MeinMMO have looked at the known issues and will tell you how to avoid or fix them if they occur.
What kind of errors are they? We have compiled a list of errors that are known regarding the PS5. These may occur, but do not have to, as a large part of the consoles functions without issues.
However, we still provide you with tips to avoid problems, or to resolve them if they do arise.
[toc]
Rest Mode Causes Crashes
What is this problem? In rest mode, the PS5 keeps your game running but disconnects the controller and screen, so they do not have to keep running.
However, some users experience problems in rest mode. It leads to critical errors and crashes, which sometimes require you to reset your console to factory settings. This is super frustrating, especially when you have freshly downloaded all the important games.
How to avoid the error? You should refrain from using rest mode until Sony provides a software hotfix. You can deactivate it by going to settings and disabling rest mode under “Power Settings”.
How do I fix the error? If this error does occur, you may have to reset your entire console to factory settings.
What is this problem? With some users, the so-called “Download Queue Bug” occurs. It happens when you are downloading a game. It can happen that the application ends up in a queue or you receive an error message.
Afterward, the game hangs in limbo. You can neither continue downloading nor cancel the download.
How to avoid the error? Currently, it cannot be determined exactly how the error occurs. IGN reports that it has occurred with various games, including Demon’s Souls, Spider-Man: Remastered, Sackboy, and CoD Cold War. Even when downloading the Disney+ app, the error is said to have occurred.
How do I fix the error? One option is to reset the console to factory settings. However, this should only be a last resort, as you will have to initialize it again.
Sony itself has since published a guide on how to deal with the error:
Restart the PS5
Reset the video settings
Update your system software
Restore the default settings
Repair the database
Restart your PS5
However, it is not confirmed whether this resolves the error for everyone.

What is this problem? Some players want to continue playing directly with their old PS4 drive on the PS5. While this generally works, it leads to errors with some consoles.
There are said to be power issues, causing the console to shut down unexpectedly. Additionally, various error messages are reported.
How to avoid the error? You can avoid connecting an external drive to your PS5. If you absolutely need it, be sure to use the front USB ports.
Sony itself advises against purchasing a M.2 SSD hard drive for the PS5. For exclusive PS5 games, you need a special drive, and Sony itself does not yet know how the specifications will look.
How do I fix the error? If problems occur, it is advisable to remove the external drive. If the errors persist, you may have to reset your console to factory settings.
Strange Noises
What is this problem? Some players report disturbing noises that sometimes only occur after several days. This should not be intended, as the PS5 has been praised since the first hands-on for being very quiet and hardly noticeable.
The noises range from annoying humming to scraping sounds to slight vibrations of the fan. They are sometimes triggered by different issues.
How do I fix the error? If you hear a scraping noise, it may be due to a defective fan. As users on Twitter have revealed, a sticker may also be the cause. They have removed it.
The humming could be caused by something called coil whine. This is a type of metallic noise that occurs when an electrical component starts to vibrate due to the energy flowing through it. However, there is nothing you can do about it.
What is this problem? This error code can appear and then freeze your system. You will then need to restart your console completely.
For some, the error did not occur afterward. However, for others, the error consistently caused problems, even after resetting to factory settings.
How to avoid the error? Currently, there is no indication of how the problem arises or how it can be avoided.
How do I fix the error? Anyone with the error code should contact PlayStation support. The support account for PlayStation recommended this on Twitter. In several cases, it was stated that either instructions would be given via direct message or through customer service.

What is this problem? Again and again, PS5 owners report that they cannot connect to the PlayStation Network.
How do I fix the error? First, you should check your internet connection. In the second step, you should update your PS5 software, if possible.
Due to the high demand, it can happen that there are issues with the PlayStation Network. According to PSN itself, at some points, download rates are throttled when too many people log in at the same time.
Whether PSN is actually down can be checked on websites like Allestörungen.de.
PS4 Games that Are Not Playable
What is this problem? Some PS4 games that should actually be playable on the PS5 are not working for some users. They are listed as “not compatible”.
How do I fix the error? To resolve the error, you need to restore your license for the PS5. Go to settings and then to “Users and Accounts”. There you will find the note “Restore licenses”. Then follow the instructions.
Just after 3:00 AM, leveling was already over for a player from WoW: Shadowlands. He is the first character to reach level 60.
Many players haven’t even really started leveling in World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, while others are already finished. One player was particularly fast and completed the whole process in just under three hours. The 10 levels from level 50 to level 60 flew by.
Who is that? The character’s name is Monkeylool and he comes from EU server Al’Akir. He plays a Pandaren Monk on the Alliance side and reached level 60 in just over three hours.
So fast it can go – just after 3, the show was over. Image source: WoW Armory
How did he do that? To level so quickly, Monkeylool and his guildmates used a little trick. They repeatedly signed up for the dungeon “Necrotic Wake” and completed it—just the three of them. A single run actually only took 5-6 minutes and rewarded with decent XP at the end of the dungeon.
Normally, you can only visit this dungeon while leveling until level 56. However, Monkeylool was able to bypass this limitation by always having a player in the group who was below level 56. In that case, the whole group can re-enter the dungeon.
Whether this is a mechanic intended by Blizzard is uncertain.
Does turbo leveling help? Not really, except for the glory of being the first player at level 60. Monkeylool doesn’t have a gameplay advantage, as mythic dungeons and other endgame content won’t be unlocked until Wednesday after the reset anyway.
Moreover, Monkeylool still has to complete the entire questline of the campaign. Before that, the character can’t choose a covenant and thereby miss out on many endgame contents.
How far did you get leveling yesterday? Are you at level 60 already? Or have you not started leveling yet?

Twitch is a huge streaming platform worldwide, but predominantly dominated by male streamers. However, there are also a few women who are really big on Twitch. We present to you the 5 largest female streamers in the world.
Among the Top 10, there is only one woman and otherwise only men. However, today we will focus on the female streamers. Here are the 5 women who have the most followers on Twitch. All of them have over 1 million followers.
Rank 5: Alinity – 1.3 million followers
Who is Alinity? 32-year-old Natalia Mogollon streams under the name Alinity for 1.3 million followers. She spent most of the last 90 days in the “Just Chatting” category but also played a lot of Apex Legends and Fall Guys. She invested at least 17 hours in Genshin Impact.
With the release of the new expansion World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, there are new secrets and rare rewards. Already in the first zone, you can obtain a new mount: the white unicorn Sun-Dancer. MeinMMO will tell you how to get it.
What kind of mount is this? Sun-Dancer is one of the first rare opponents you can find shortly after starting in the new expansion Shadowlands. The horse circles in the southeastern Bastion, teasing you from a distance with its presence.
Although Sun-Dancer can be found in the first area, you probably won’t get it that early. You cannot simply kill Sun-Dancer to get its loot. Instead, you must tame the horse in order to claim it as a mount.
Cool horse, right? It also requires quite a bit of effort. Source: YouTube.
To tame it, you first need to complete a small task. Additionally, you will need an item that is available only later in the game, the Sky-Screamer Glider. We will tell you how to get the Glider and obtain Sun-Dancer as a mount.
Obtaining Blessing and Glider: You need two components to tame the horse:
Blessing of the Sun Rider
Sky-Screamer Glider
You will receive the blessing at coordinates 60 / 94 in the southeast of Bastion. Simply click on the shrine you see there. In our guide, we explain how to display coordinates in World of Warcraft.
Here’s where you can find the shrine.
You can purchase the Sky-Screamer Glider at the auction house or craft it yourself. However, you will need to join the Kyrians, one of the covenants in Shadowlands. With the Kyrians, you must build your reputation so that you unlock the ability “Teachings of Wisdom” in the Path of Ascension.
Through one of the trials, you will then learn the recipe for the glider. This will likely take you several weeks. Don’t expect to obtain Sun-Dancer right at release.
Fighting Sun-Dancer: Once you have the glider, simply travel to the shrine and collect the blessing. Then intercept Sun-Dancer along its route and jump from a cliff. Use the glider and sail towards the horse.
Once you are in range, you can interact with Sun-Dancer and mount up. You will need to try to calm it down, and you will receive significant damage regularly, so you might already die at lower levels.
Once you’ve calmed the horse down, it will land with you in a free area and then challenge you. The fight is also quite tough, and you will likely need strong endgame gear or friends for this. You can see how it all goes down in the embedded video here:

If you defeat Sun-Dancer, getting it as a mount is not guaranteed. At least in the beta, there were cases where its reins were not awarded to players. So don’t expect to receive it even after completing the task.
The 8th expansion of World of Warcraft is live. We reveal how you can now take off into the Shadowlands.
Right on time at midnight, it finally happened, and the latest expansion of World of Warcraft was released. In WoW: Shadowlands, the heroes leave Azeroth and wander into the realm of the dead – the Shadowlands. Fortunately, the champions are not dead themselves but have some quests to fulfill there.
How was the launch? Simultaneously at midnight our time, WoW: Shadowlands launched worldwide, and the new quest popped up for all players who had at least level 48 and had purchased the expansion.
Some players reported that the quest appeared a few minutes earlier. It seems the goal was to stagger the crowd a bit by having players start with a delay.
Some players encountered the error message: “A character with this name already exists.” This can happen if you are disconnected from the game and try to log in before the disconnect is registered. Just wait a few seconds and try again.
Should you level quickly?You can take your time leveling, as content such as mythic dungeons will not be unlocked until Wednesday after maintenance. So if you reach level 60 during the upcoming WoW week, you won’t miss anything. There’s really no reason to rush.
If you’re interested in more about WoW, you might find this appealing:
What’s all included in Shadowlands? Shadowlands entices with a wealth of content but is quite linear at the start. All players must follow the same sequence through the zones, traveling from Bastion to Maldraxxus, then to Ardenweald, and finally to Revendreth. Afterwards – at level 60 – you will choose one of four covenants, the major main feature of Shadowlands. Additionally, there are new modes like the cool tower Torghast or the special covenant activities.
