Today the World First race for Azshara begins in WoW – Here’s how to watch

In World of Warcraft, the hunt for the World First has broken out again. Many guilds are participating in a joint event this time.

In World of Warcraft, turbulent days are starting again – at least if you enjoy the races of the professional guilds. The Eternal Palace opens its doors at the mythic difficulty level, which means that the “World First” race of the major guilds is starting again. Method and Limit, as well as other large guilds like Aversion, From Scratch, or Big Dumb Guild, will try to claim the World First kill on Queen Azshara.

Method hosts a huge event: The guild Method has tried this time to inspire as many guilds as possible for the event. Therefore, you can not only see the progress of Method. Many other guilds are also participating in the event. These include, in addition to Method itself, the following large guilds:

  • Alpha
  • Ji Tiang Hong
  • Skyline
  • Aversion
  • From Scratch
  • vodkaz
  • Big Dumb Guild

For viewers, this means more insights into the race than ever before.

Who will send Azshara to the boards first?

The whole thing is being broadcast by TakeTV from Germany. So if you live near Krefeld, you might run into a professional player or two.

Here’s how you can watch: Those who want to follow the event live can do so on Method’s Twitch channel. We have embedded it here for you:

The channel will be streaming 24/7 until the First Kill is achieved. This can take several days or even weeks, depending on the progress of the individual guilds. In the last race, it took more than 300 attempts just to finally defeat Jaina.

The last race was exciting – and took a long time.

The starting signal will be given this afternoon (July 16th) at 3:00 PM. Then there will be a bit of preliminaries before the servers in America go online again. The Americans have earlier access to the new raid due to time differences and other maintenance times.

Are you excited about the “World First race”? Which guild are you betting on? Will you follow the race or just wait for the winner?

Teamfight Tactics Guide: How to make the transition to the late game successfully

One of the biggest challenges in Teamfight Tactics is the transition from early to late game. Sometimes you even need to completely change your team for that. Since that is difficult, we want to help you with this step.

Why is the transition to late game so crucial? In Teamfight Tactics, there are many combos that are particularly strong at the beginning of the game.

Three Nobles, four Knights, or two Wild Champions can grant you early winning streaks. But Noble Champions like Vayne or Fiora are generally not suitable for the late game; they decline too much, even at level 3.

A switch to a strong combo is necessary, but this change is not easy. You are essentially working on two fronts simultaneously, the units on the field and those in the bank.

In this guide, we want to share tips and tricks with you on how to make the transition easier. If you want to get familiar with the game first, you can find an introductory guide on MeinMMO.

LoL Teamfight Tactics Auto Chess

Everything starts with a clear plan

Am I planning already in the early game? In the first rounds of the game, it usually doesn’t determine how your team looks in the late game. There you can first choose good champions and try to win the initial rounds.

In the mid game, during stage 3, a plan should gradually crystallize about where to go. Influences on your plans include:

  • The champions you have found so far
  • The items you have found so far
  • The direction of your opponents

Teamfight Tactics: With these strategies you win your matches
von Alexander Leitsch

How do I build my team? If you’ve already collected Sorcerers, Elemental Mages, Assassins, or Ninjas, then it can certainly be useful to follow that call and build your team in that direction.

More important than the champions, however, are the items you have found. A team of Ice Chosen and Archers makes little sense if you haven’t found a Recursion Bow and Giant Swords to enhance your Archers.

However, if you have found many oversized staffs, it makes sense to switch towards Elemental Mages or Sorcerers. Our tier list explains the composition of all items.

Lastly, you can also look around on the other boards. It is useful to know what other players are building to counter the combos or to know which champions are still abundant in the pool.

League of Legends

How to transition into the late game

How do I start the transition? If you have a strong combo in the early game, then you try to keep it on the field for as long as possible while already working on the late game champions in the background.

The switch should then be made when your late game combo is somewhat survivable. If your goal is to get six Sorcerers on the field but you only have four, it might be smarter to wait and let your previous champions continue fighting.

But once you have all six Sorcerers, they should all get on the field. Your bonus is extremely strong.

What do I do with the bank? If you hold on to the early game combo for too long, you may have a bank – and thus a space problem. It is advisable not to upgrade the 1- and 2-Gold units to level 3 and therefore not to clutter the bank with Garens, Vaynes, or other units.

Instead, focus on collecting your late game champions and upgrade them to level 2 if necessary. Here, however, you should not begin collecting for level 3 yet.

von Alexander Leitsch

Aren’t level 3 champions stronger? Level 3 units are strong, but especially 1- and 2-Gold champions decline just as strongly. Many 4- and 5-Gold champions are significantly stronger at level 1 or 2 due to their abilities.

Gnar, Cho’Gath, or Yasuo can decide games even without major synergies. A level 2 Draven usually deals significantly more damage than a level 3 Vayne or Tristana. The list can continue indefinitely.

Don’t cling too much to your units at the beginning; instead, focus on the late game from mid game onwards.

Combos for the late game

Which combos are best for the late game? In the late game, various combos have proven to be extremely effective. From the setup, they are:

  • 6 Sorcerers and 1 Ninja
  • 3 Elemental Mages, 4 Ninjas, and Pyke
  • 6 Assassins and 4 Ninjas
  • 6 Ice Chosen and 4 Archers
  • 4 Wilds, 3 Shapeshifters, and Draven

We will introduce them to you in more detail in a separate post soon. There, we will go into the exact setup, the items, and the strengths and weaknesses of these combos.

Why the ranked mode in Apex Legends is worth it even for bad players

In Apex Legends it has not been clear what rewards there are at the end of Season 2 for participants of Ranked Modes. However, a data miner has leaked information that promises great loot. Also for beginners.

What are the rewards for the Ranked Mode? It was previously known that participants in Ranked Play would receive some form of reward at the end of Season 2 in Apex Legends. This includes the highly coveted trails that are supposed to be available at the end for at least the top two leagues.

https://twitter.com/That1MiningGuy/status/1150180056603512832

Now a data miner named That1MiningGuy has leaked information on Twitter that is said to clarify the rewards according to his data mining. According to the leak, these would be:

  • A badge for the divisions Bronze to Apex Predator
  • A skin for the holo-sight for the divisions Bronze to Apex Predator
  • A trail (Skytrail) for the divisions Bronze to Apex Predator

Of course, this information is not confirmed, and the rewards may still change. Unfortunately, the data miner has not found any images of the rewards. Additionally, we do not know if you must play through the respective division to the highest rank, or if it is sufficient to simply reach the respective division.

Apex Legends Ranked Selection 2

Fans are excited about Skytrails

Here’s how the leaks about the rewards are received: Especially the Skytrails, which have so far only been available in random colors in the game, are well received by fans under the tweet of the leaker. Especially since you also get them at lower levels:

  • “Finally, Skytrails!”
  • “Does everyone get a Skytrail? I thought only Diamond and Apex!”
  • “I want the skins for the holo-sight!”
Apex Legends Season 2 ranked system

So if you really get rewards even in the lowest Bronze division, then it is definitely worth playing Ranked Play. Because even as the very last noob, you will eventually stumble forward in the Bronze division, as you cannot drop lower there.

And you cannot fall from one division to the lower one in the first Ranked Season anyway. So it pays off to play as much Ranked as you can and secure unique rewards.

At least until you rank up to the higher divisions, where unfortunately some nasty cheaters are around.

FIFA 19: Kids really want Messi and raid their parents’ account

Four children managed to spend 611 euros on FIFA 19 in about three weeks. They purchased numerous packs because they desperately wanted Lionel Messi.

This is what happened: The biggest wish of four children in England was to have Lionel Messi in their Ultimate Team. But the superstar is quite expensive and hardly affordable with in-game currency.

The children’s solution: They are trying to get their favorite player from FIFA packs. However, the children, all under 10 years old, were probably not aware that the packs cost a lot of money.

The object of desire
The object of desire

So they happily opened packs and hoped for Lionel Messi. They must have opened quite a few sets and repeatedly topped up their FIFA account with new FIFA points for real money.

For a total amount of 611 euros, you can get quite a few packs in FIFA 19. However, the prices vary widely, with packs ranging from 1 euro to 25 euros.

This is the extent: The credit card bill clearly shows that the children were unstoppable. On June 3 alone, they spent 175.94 pounds, which is 195.41 euros.

The charges from FIFA 19
The charges from FIFA 19

How did the children manage this? The father had once gifted the children a set for 10 euros. He probably didn’t notice that his children had been observing the purchase process very closely. Afterwards, they were able to carry it out independently without any problems.

Additionally, the father admitted that he didn’t take all safety measures and did not protect the payment process with a pin.

On the platforms PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, precautions can be taken to block in-game spending for children. However, these safety measures must be activated manually.

But why didn’t the parents notice anything? The parents only noticed the many charges when their credit card was declined during a purchase because the account was empty. The problem was that the purchase confirmations were sent to an old email address of the father.

Accordingly, weeks went by before the parents could notice.

So it continued

This is what the parents say: The father was surprised by the actions of his children, “I never would have thought that the children would do something like that.” He also criticizes the Ultimate Team mode of FIFA 19: “You pay 60 euros for the game, which is a lot of money in itself, but the only way to get a great team is essentially gambling.”

In conclusion, the father confirms that the children’s goal was not achieved: “They spent 611 euros and never got their favorite player, Lionel Messi.”

The Nintendo Switch has been confiscated indefinitely since the incident, the father said.

Nintendo refunds the purchases: Nintendo has agreed to reverse the purchases and remove the FUT cards received from the club.

In any case, we hope that the children can play again soon, but with the activated safety measures in place.

Fortnite community is concerned about YouTuber after he sends strange signals

In the professional scene of Fortnite , a player’s behavior is currently being heavily discussed. People believe that player Bxrry is being abused by his stepfather and that he is being forced to delete evidence.

This is the situation: A YouTuber named 77 Bxrry is currently at the center of discussions in the Fortnite community. He posted a video 3 days ago showing how his streaming setup was destroyed. Allegedly, his gaming setup, which was worth several thousand dollars including the PC, was destroyed by his stepfather.

He also claims that he was hit by his stepfather.

In response, a fundraising campaign was started on Gofundme, which aims to benefit Bxrry with a goal of $1800 so that the player can get his setup back.

On Monday evening, Bxrry then released a video in which he thanked his viewers for their support and explained that he was doing well.

He wrote in the comments after the video was released that he was forced to record the video. He was also allegedly forced to delete the video that showed the destroyed PC setup. He then deleted his comment moments later on purpose – viewers took screenshots of it.

77 Bxrry help YouTube Fortnite

Next, he started a livestream on YouTube and told his viewers that they no longer needed to help him and that he was doing well.

Hidden cry for help in the livestream?

This seemed strange to the viewers: Many viewers were apparently surprised by the sudden turn that the player was doing well after all. Additionally, the comment that his stepfather was forcing him to make the video caused controversy.

During the livestream, viewers wrote that Bxrry should cough if his stepfather was forcing him off-camera to stream and that he needed help. According to Reddit, Bxrry then coughed several times. One cough can be seen in this video:

Situation is unclear

There are some players who doubt the situation and claim that it is all fake. In other places, alleged friends and clan members claim that it is all real and that his stepfather would be abusing him. It is hard to determine whether the situation is real or fake.

  • “Hey guys, member of 77 and friend of Barry here. His stepfather is now emotionally abusing him and taking control of everything he does. Starting with the deletion of his first video showing his broken setup and now this. The really unfortunate thing is that he has no other place to live and is only 16 years old, so he can’t just move out. We don’t know what to do.” wrote jm0ck on Reddit.
https://twitter.com/rlBezgeFNA/status/1150818547729358849

On Twitter, user TuskiTV writes: “I am Barry’s real-life friend. He needs help. A lot has gotten out of control. A LOT. I have information on this […],” Barry retweeted it.

People claim that the player is starting this drama to gain attention for his channel and that the story might be fake.

Given the current situation, it is unclear what is really behind the story. We will update the article as soon as new information is available.

Anthem starts countdown for Cataclysm, then cancels it – This is what lies behind it

The players may have celebrated too soon: In the Anthem subreddits, several players reported in the past hours that a countdown had appeared on the live servers. Many freelancers were excited and assumed that the pre-events of the Cataclysm would now begin. However, BioWare dashed that hope…

What was that countdown? In the subreddits for Anthem, several players recently posted screenshots of a timer. In the challenges within the game, there was talk of an “impending storm”, along with a countdown of seven days.

The players were supposed to contribute in these days to the efforts to stop this impending storm. To do this, three tasks had to be completed:

  • Defeat 60 crystallized enemies
  • Destroy 20 crystals
  • Complete 8 crystal world events
Anthem Event Countdown
This countdown was found by players in Anthem. Source: Reddit

What was the countdown supposed to announce? The players hoped that it would finally signal the long-awaited Cataclysm would begin. This was supposed to be released in May, but was postponed for the developers to address the issues with Anthem.

The event has already been under scrutiny for some time on test servers. The test servers are open to all PC players of Anthem who own the game or are subscribers of Origin Access Premier. Console players unfortunately cannot participate in the tests so far.

The players thought that with the countdown, the Cataclysm would finally begin on the live servers. This will be an eight-week event, of which the first two weeks are to be a kind of “introduction”.

The players only became suspicious when the countdown appeared, but nothing else happened in the game.

What does BioWare say? Shortly after the players discovered the countdown and shared it on Reddit, Community Lead Andrew Johnson spoke up on Twitter.

According to his tweet, a change went live by accident that was supposed to be released at a later time. This change was reverted, and they apologized to the players for the confusion.

Thus, the countdown refers to something that went live on the servers prematurely. A date for when the Cataclysm event will actually start was not mentioned.

Fortnite brings the 5th shotgun already and everyone: Seriously?

In Fortnite: Battle Royale a new shotgun is coming soon. It is an epic and legendary version of the well-known tactical shotgun. But which weapon will be removed?

What kind of shotgun is it about? Surprisingly, without any prior leaks, the announcement appeared in-game that a new shotgun will be coming with the upcoming update for Fortnite. However, it will not be a completely new gun, but an epic and legendary version of the well-known tactical shotgun.

The “Tac” has been in the game since the beginning and is usually available at most as a green version. In the meantime, there was also a less spectacular purple (epic) version.

The new epic and legendary versions are completely redesigned and have a stylish new look. However, due to a lack of leaks, nothing is known about the stats yet.

Soldiers LTM Fortnite

When is the new shotgun coming? The new shotgun is expected to be released with the next update, which is likely to come on Wednesday, July 17.

Will there soon be 5 shotguns in the game?

Are old weapons being removed? With the new version of the Tac, there will be an unheard-of number of shotguns in the game. There will then be a total of 5 different weapons/variants. Therefore, fans strongly assume that one of the existing shotguns will be removed from the game. But which one?

  • Pumpgun: The regular shotgun just came back and is a fan favorite. It is unlikely that it will be removed.
  • Regular tactical shotgun: This weapon could be removed in favor of the better epic/legendary version. However, this is contradicted by a clever conspiracy theory.
  • Drum shotgun: This weapon is hated because people either find it too weak or too strong. But since it just came in, it is unlikely to be removed again.
  • Combat shotgun: This weapon just came into the game with the start of Season 9. But it has a strange role as a weapon that fires quickly and has good range. Therefore, many fans think it might be removed again now.
fortnite-tfue-no-shotgun-titel

It is also possible that Epic will keep all weapons in the game and really increase the pool to 5 shotguns. However, this would anger many players and pro Tfue, who already find the loot pool completely chaotic and annoying.

What do fans say about the new weapon? On Reddit, fans are already discussing the new weapon. Curiously, many voices this time are not as negative as in previous announcements about new shotguns. As long as another shotgun is removed, fans seem to appreciate a legendary or epic Tac:

  • “I love the Tac so much, it deserves all of this!”
  • “I’m in! The regular Tac is good, the epic/legendary version should be great.”
  • “Finally another purple/golden shotgun!”

Just the design of the new weapon is well-received, leading many fans to forgive Epic for yet another shotgun:

  • “I’m not lying when I say that the design is pretty awesome.”
  • “It looks like the damn Halo shotgun!”
  • “The design looks crazy as hell!”
  • “It looks so damn cool!”

How the Crypto-Pokémon look that you will soon catch in Pokémon GO

The update 0.149.0 of Pokémon GO also brought the first Crypto Pokémon into the game. Data miner Chrales has already shown the new monsters.

What are Crypto Pokémon? This new type of Pokémon will soon come to the game. It is directly related to Team Rocket, which has also been found in the game data.

Team Rocket will probably battle with these Pokémon, and your task will be to catch and purify the monsters. Through purification, the Crypto Pokémon will return to normal.

This is the first look at Crypto Pokémon

Where do the images come from? The data miner Chrales hosted a live stream in which he showcased the first images of the Crypto Pokémon. They were added with the latest update but have not yet been activated for players.

How can you recognize the Crypto Pokémon? They are clearly visible. There is a purple mist around the Pokémon, and the monsters have red eyes.

Which Pokémon have been found as Crypto? The list of potential Crypto Pokémon is long. For each of the respective Pokémon, 3 variations were found:

  • the normal version
  • the Crypto version
  • the purified version

In total, over 100 of these Pokémon have been found. So not all monsters can be Crypto, but a large part can be. This also includes legendary Pokémon.

What should a purified Pokémon be able to do? From the last update, we know that these Pokémon should have better IV and cost less Stardust when leveling up.

In the images from Chrales, strange costs for leveling up can be seen. This is due to the fact that this is just the find from the data miner and not the original images from Niantic. Therefore, much will still change here.

What does this find tell us now? Crypto Pokémon are in the game! They have not yet been activated, but it seems that this can be easily adjusted.

Team Rocket
Team Rocket could come along with the Crypto Pokémon

Data has also been found regarding Team Rocket, and Niantic itself is also already giving hints. It may not be long before Team Rocket and the Crypto Pokémon are brought into the game.

Since the latest update, there is also a new rating system in the game:

Shamans bring the Murloc apocalypse in Hearthstone

In the next Hearthstone expansion, Murlocs will rain down. Shamans will receive a spell that will drive many players crazy.

The next expansion of Hearthstone is “Saviors of Uldum” and is set to be released next month. As usual, Blizzard is gradually revealing new cards and presenting them individually. In the meantime, some cards have come together that we want to present to you here. Among them are many (seemingly) weak cards for the Paladin, but also a few new Plagues.

Paladins will get the new beast minion Salhet’s Pride. This costs 3 mana and has weak stats of 3/1, but a solid deathrattle. The Paladin draws 2 minions from the deck with 1 health.

Also for the Paladin is the Sandwasp Queen. This beast minion costs only 2 mana and also has the stats of 3/1, but comes with a strong battlecry. The Paladin gets 2 Sandwasps with stats of 2/1 into their hand. The Sandwasps are also beasts that cost 1 mana.

The third card for the Paladin is the minion Unruly Fanatic. It costs only 1 mana and brings stats of 2/1 to the board. Additionally, it gains +1 attack every time the Paladin summons another minion. So it can rapidly gain strength, but it is also extremely fragile.

Priests are looking forward to the new minion Soul Companion. For 4 mana, it brings weak stats of 3/1 onto the field, but has an extremely strong battlecry. It resurrects a random friendly minion that has died in this game. Additionally, it grants that minion Resurgence. Resurgence is a new keyword that ensures a dead minion is revived at 1 health upon dying for the first time.

The Plague of Madness is a new spell for rogues that costs only 1 mana. The spell ensures that both heroes equip a poisonous dagger with stats of 2/2. The card can be useful to destroy a different weapon in the opponent’s hand or when you have nothing to fear from poisonous weapons yourself.

Shamans will once again flood the game with Murlocs, as they will receive the spell Murloc Plague. For 3 mana, this card ensures that all minions on the battlefield are transformed into random Murlocs. Since Murlocs usually have low stats, the card can be used offensively as well as defensively to clean up the battlefield with another spell afterwards.

Hearthstone Evil Guys title

What do you think of these new cards? Do you like them? Or is the upcoming expansion rather boring so far?

We have introduced more cards in these articles:

Kickstarter cancels the “GTA-MMORPG” Raw – developers can no longer understand the world

During the Kickstarter campaign of the MMORPG RAW, doubts arose about whether it was a real game and not a scam. Now Kickstarter has prematurely ended the crowdfunding campaign. The development team feels unfairly treated.

What is RAW? At the end of June, the Kickstarter campaign for the MMORPG RAW, which was supposed to play like an online GTA, started.

  • You were supposed to explore an area of 400 km²
  • Together with other players, you could build and manage a city
  • You would have had to earn your living in various ways, such as a gas station owner, car dealer, city planner, food vendor, police officer, etc. You want to earn a living and make something of yourself
  • Up to 200 players should be able to interact on each server
https://youtu.be/vSo8Oz_WPQE

Was RAW just a scam?

Why did doubts arise? The small development team wanted to raise 70,000 euros through the crowdfunding campaign. This alone raised doubts about whether such an ambitious project could be realized with such a small amount.

Moreover, there was no imprint on the website, the studio was not registered as an official company, and images and assets from Turbosquid were used in the pictures and video, which are explicitly not allowed for “virtual worlds”.

When all this became public, the developers showed anger. In general, their responses to questions from the community appeared quite brusque and unfriendly.

What has happened now? Yesterday, on July 16, the Kickstarter campaign was suddenly ended prematurely. And that was only about 24 hours before it would officially have come to an end. Up until that point, 171,700 euros had been raised from supporters. The crowdfunding would have been very successful.

Why was the campaign ended? Kickstarter initially did not provide a specific reason but only examples of why this could happen. This occurs, for example, when important company information is missing or false claims have been made.

However, Kickstarter later provided some details on the reasons. Killerwhale Games explained that the 70,000 euros were not enough to develop the game and that additional funds needed to be raised. This, however, apparently violates Kickstarter’s rules, which is why the campaign was ended prematurely.

Developers are disappointed

How are the developers reacting? Killerwhale Games is disappointed and has released a statement via Discord. According to this, the team was not informed by Kickstarter that the campaign had been ended. They also did not attempt to contact the developers beforehand to clarify the situation.

Killerwhale Games had no idea at the time the statement was made why the campaign was ended. The team suspects that many players complained to Kickstarter because they felt that RAW was a scam. However, according to the developers, this is not the case.

And they want to prove this. A gameplay video of the MMORPG is set to be released in a few days.

How are the players reacting? The community is somewhat divided regarding the situation. Some, such as on Reddit, believe that it was the only right decision by Kickstarter, as the entire project looked like a scam. Others were looking forward to the game and find it unfair that a crowdfunding campaign can be stopped simply due to speculation.

What will happen to RAW now? Killerwhale Games does not want to give up. They might switch to the Indiegogo platform to start a new crowdfunding campaign. RAW will definitely continue to be developed.

Teamfight Tactics: This item combination makes champions nearly unbeatable

On the test server of Teamfight Tactics, various items have been enhanced in preparation for patch 9.14. This has led to a combination of items that makes some champions nearly invincible.

What changes were made to the items? In the current version on the PBE, there are buffs for various items. Among them are the Hextech Gunblade and Warmog’s Armor, which play a significant role in the new item combination.

The Hextech Gunblade now heals for 33% instead of 25% of the damage dealt. Warmog’s Armor heals the champion for 6% instead of 3% of their maximum health.

The combination of these two items with a Thornmail ensures that some champions become nearly invincible, as the streamer Hafu experienced herself.

Teamfight Tactics News Image

Hafu loses an 8v1 duel

What happened to Hafu? In a Teamfight Tactics match on the PBE, Hafu faced off against her opponent with just one health point left. It was all or nothing.

Her team quickly managed to eliminate most of the opposing champions. Only a level 3 Shyvanna remained, who had a Hextech Gunblade, Warmog’s Armor, and Thornmail as her items.

Even though Hafu still had eight living champions, she could do nothing against Shyvanna. The champion regenerated health too quickly, and the assassins eliminated themselves through the Thornmail.

Hafu’s elemental mages were also useless, as Shyvanna counters magic damage with the dragon buff. The champion also benefited from the shapeshifter bonus.

Hafu lost the duel and finished the round in third place.

Are the items too strong? Even though Shyvanna was immune to magic damage due to the dragon buff, the adjustments to the items play a significant role in why the champion survived so long.

And not only does Shyvanna benefit from the items; other tanky champions also survive significantly longer and can deal more damage.

lol-shyvana

Many revisions and a new champion

Which items were adjusted? Besides the Hextech Gunblade and Warmog’s Armor, several other items have been changed on the PBE:

  • Guardian Angel now upgrades champions by one level, even at level 4
  • Red Buff and Morellonomicon now deal 13% of maximum health as damage over 5 seconds
  • Runaans Hurricane now summons spirits that mirror the champion’s attacks and deal 25% of the damage
  • Zeke’s Herald now increases attack speed by 15%
  • Guinsoo’s Rageblade now increases attack speed by 4% per stack
  • Zeke’s Herald and Amulet of the Iron Solari now affect all champions in the same row, instead of all around them.

With the upcoming patch, we will adjust our currently valid item tier list accordingly.

Riot Games also wants to remove randomness from items and is now planning guaranteed drops of items.

What else is being tested besides the items? The new champion Twisted Fate and a ranked mode are currently being tested on the PBE as well. Both are very likely to be implemented with patch 9.14.

Additionally, there have been minor adjustments to the demons and to the champion Elise, who now costs only 1 gold.

But Elise is not always kind to you, as the streamer Scarra himself experienced:

Destiny 2: How AFK farming helps many to Bad Juju – What do you think about it?

In Destiny 2 many Guardians are currently shortening their path to the new Exotic weapon Bad Juju with AFK farming of materials. However, this seemingly harmless trick also annoys some players. If done half-heartedly, it can ruin the gaming experience for others.

This is the farming method in question: Many Guardians who want to grab the new exotic Pulse Rifle Bad Juju and their Masterwork Catalyst will probably have to spend a lot of planetary materials.

But not everyone has enough of it or can quickly get some from Spider. Therefore, some Guardians are now resorting to an old farming method that has recently gained popularity again due to the Bad Juju quest.

They go into the forges of the Black Armory DLC and receive certain materials even for failed runs – and all completely AFK, that is, without actually playing the game. They either redeem them directly in the Tribute Hall for the necessary tributes or trade them with other vendors to ultimately get the remaining materials from the vendor Spider.

This method allows for continuous farming; you won’t be kicked for inactivity, you can essentially let your PC or console run overnight, and the next day you can enjoy a lot of additional resources.

What is the problem with this method? The trick is quite harmless in itself. If executed correctly, AFK farmers remain among themselves. By lowering the power level below a certain threshold, they are matched with like-minded players and not with players who are seriously attempting to master the Forge.

Thus, no one who simply wants to play the Forge should be restricted or disturbed. In theory. Because not every farmer is that considerate and adjusts their power level accordingly – either out of ignorance or sheer laziness. As a result, firstly, the farm trick does not work and farmers get kicked for inactivity as early as the first round. Secondly, they ruin the run for the rest of the 3-player team.

More on the topic
Destiny 2: This trick gives you 8% discount daily for the Tribute Hall
von Sven Galitzki

Many players are currently complaining about this: It is already anything but easy to find enough players for the forges. Now, due to the popularity of the farm trick and the hunt for the new Weapon Exotic of Season 7 , many more Guardians are joining who are AFK, meaning not participating in the match. This happens more frequently, is annoying, and often very frustrating for many players – especially when this activity still plays a role outside of farming.

Some of them therefore demand: If you’re already AFK farming, at least be considerate and do it among yourselves. Lower your power level below 500 so that you are not mixed with regular players.

D2_Black_Armory_Forge1_07

The complaints are also not new. When the forges were brand new in Season 5, a very similar method was used to farm lore. Thousands of players complained about this and demanded that Bungie do something about the AFKers. Now this farm trick is back in the spotlight because of Bad Juju, and the complaints are flaring up again.

It remains to be seen whether Bungie will do something against this farming method. The popular farming trick in the Menagerie was quickly shut down by the studio. Whether it will happen here as well remains to be seen.

What do you think of this method? Should Bungie shut it down like in the Menagerie? Or should the trick remain in the game? Have you also encountered the AFK problem in the Forge?

Crossplay in Borderlands 3? Now there is a clear answer

Many fans of Borderlands 3 hope that there will be crossplay. The head of Gearbox has now provided a clear answer on this.

The wait for Borderlands 3 is slowly but surely coming to an end, but many details about the upcoming loot shooter are still uncertain. For the past few days, rumors have been circulating on social media that Borderlands 3 could launch with crossplay. An event in the coming days was even supposed to announce this officially – at least that was the assumption.

But now there has been a reality check. Randy Pitchford revealed before the event that crossplay in Borderlands 3 will not be available at launch.

What was said? On Twitter, Randy Pitchford stated that the speculations were nonsense. The event, which was announced with “Togetherness,” will not address crossplay as a topic. He said in a tweet:

Some people speculate that the event tomorrow would be about crossplay. The thing tomorrow is fantastic, but it is not about crossplay. (…)

In another tweet, he added that there would be no crossplay at launch. So if you want to play with your friends, you have to agree on a platform.

Crossplay is planned though: Pitchford further explained that crossplay is not off the table. They intend to implement crossplay and will do so “as soon as it is feasible.” Gearbox is in talks with partners and aims to offer crossplay for as many platforms as possible.

If you were planning to play Borderlands 3 with your friends, you should agree on whether you prefer PC, PlayStation 4, or Xbox One. So at least at launch, crossplay is not to be expected. When or if it will actually come later remains to be seen.

Will you get Borderlands 3 even if there is no crossplay? Or was that an important reason for your purchase?

Pokémon GO revolutionizes its rating system – Here’s how it works now

In Pokémon GO there is a new evaluation system. With this you can evaluate your Pokémon much faster and, above all, more clearly. We show you how it works.

What kind of system is this? So far, you could ask the team leader for an evaluation and only received 3 sentences that indicated a rough IV. You could recognize Pokémon with 100% IV, but all other values could not be identified clearly.

Now there is a new system that shows you the individual values of the Pokémon very precisely and you can evaluate your Pokémon much faster. You no longer need an extra app for this, everything happens directly in the game.

This is how the new evaluation system works

What does the system look like? You simply click on the evaluate button for the Pokémon and the new system opens directly. It shows you without another click what IV the Pokémon has and what value has how many points.

Evaluate
This mask now opens when evaluating. Source: Reddit

While the exact number of the IV is still not displayed, you can now see at a glance whether the Pokémon is good or bad.

How does it work? Each value gets its own bar in the system. This bar fills up with the score of the respective value. The closer the value is to 15, the fuller the bar is. When the bar is full, the Pokémon has the value at 15. It doesn’t get any better than that.

There are also stars. For each value that is above 10, the Pokémon gets one star. So if the monster has 3 stars, each value is above 10.

Values
This is how the bars differ with different values

This is how fast the system works now: The evaluation is now significantly faster, as you can also keep the evaluation mask open and still switch between Pokémon. Thus, you don’t have to press the evaluation button for each monster again, but just swipe along.

The stars always indicate when a Pokémon is usable or not. You can safely discard any monster with only one star. With 3 stars, you should take a closer look at whether it can still be useful.

Here you can see how fast the system works

This way you can recognize 100% IV faster: Pokémon with perfect IV can now be recognized even faster. They now have a red circle instead of an orange one with stars. As soon as a Pokémon has this red circle, you should keep it.

von Noah Struthoff

Are evaluation apps now redundant? They are definitely losing their usability. With the system in the game, you can evaluate the Pokémon a bit faster and especially separate the bad Pokémon from the good ones.

If it comes to precise evaluations, the apps could still be useful, as you still have to look closely at the in-game system to see what values the Pokémon has. But even this should be learned quickly with a little practice.

When will this system come to the game? The new evaluation is coming with the update 0.149.0. This is currently being rolled out and is already available for some Android users. iOS users will have to wait a few more days. By the weekend, however, the evaluation should also be possible here.

What do you think of the new system? Does it replace your IV calculator?

Warning, these weapons in Fallout 76 will ruin your loot

In the survival MMO Fallout 76, a specific weapon type is indeed strong, but it comes with an unpleasant side effect: It ruins loot and respawns!

Which weapons are we talking about? We are referring to energy weapons. They are strong in the survival MMO Fallout 76, but they also have the effect of melting enemies into a pile of disgusting sludge after their death.

Molten enemies ruin loot for everyone

What is the problem with molten enemies? This sludge is worthless, and there is no loot contained within it. So, it’s not particularly rewarding to melt enemies into slime.

Fallout 76 Gatling Plasma and Gatling heavy weapons get a buff title

But the matter is even worse. According to a user on Reddit , death is permanent for all enemies that are melted by energy weapons.

“If you melt an enemy and turn them into slime, that enemy will never respawn on the server again.”

He killed all the Yao Guais and the Mirelurk Queen in one place with an energy weapon and turned them into sludge. Afterwards, he checked back every hour. All non-melted enemies would have respawned.

The unfortunate mutant bears and the crustacean were still only present as piles of molten sludge.

Fallout 76 Vault Boy fights with Yao Guai title 2

Energy weapons apparently permanently remove enemies from the game! An absurdity in an MMO where multiple players share a server and everyone would like the chance for epic loot from rare enemies.

This is how players react: The announcement on Reddit regarding energy weapons was confirmed by several players:

  • “I always feel really guilty when I use my plasma rifle because I know the next player who comes through will have fewer kills.”
  • “That explains why half the clubhouse didn’t respawn yesterday. Just piles of damn slime everywhere!”
  • “There’s a dedicated griefer who does this on purpose and kills every single enemy on the map like this!”
Fallout 76 dizzy title resize

The melted monsters are said to only return after a server restart. Interestingly, this issue also occurred in Fallout 4. There, melted enemies were permanently dead and never returned.

Since a large part of the code from Fallout 4 was reused in Fallout 76, some players say that this “feature” has also carried over to the new game.

Nevertheless, fans hope that Bethesda will fix the problem soon so that it doesn’t ultimately lead to a point where no monsters are left in the world of Fallout.

What about Temtem – the “Pokémon-MMO” for PC, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch?

When Temtem was introduced on Kickstarter, it caused a stir primarily due to its parallels to Pokémon. The game has been in Alpha version 0.2 for about a month now, and we tell you whether it is worth keeping an eye on the monster game.

That’s why Temtem is considered a Pokémon MMO: Just like the great original, Pokémon, the titular monsters are the center of attention in Temtem. These are creatures of various types that you can encounter all over the game world.

At the beginning of the game, your self-created character is accompanied by two of their own Temtem, who will fight alongside you on your adventure.
Travel through various areas called Archipelagoes, battle, catch, evolve or breed Temtem. All of this can be done online with your friends.

The Kickstarter trailer was so convincing that instead of the desired 70,000 USD, over 570,000 USD were raised.

Release still far away – Alpha 0.2 released: The release of Temtem is planned for May 2020.

The game is currently in Alpha version 0.2. This brought bug fixes, but above all new features and content. With the release of Alpha update 0.2, some buyers also had temporary access to Temtem.

This is what’s included in Alpha 0.2:

  • a brand new map: Omnesia
  • an expansion of the main campaign
  • full character customization: various cosmetic items and colors can now be bought for your trainer at a boutique
  • trading with other players
  • Tempedia: here all info on the Temtem you have encountered on your adventures is stored
  • a minimap
  • 22 new Temtem
The new boutique for cosmetic items.
Anyone with some spare change can give their trainer a new look here.

How is the Alpha build received by the community?

The mood in the Temtem subreddit is mostly positive, albeit critical.

DustyPopcorn writes: “Damn, this game is so addictive! I had so much fun that I completed everything the game currently offers. I would still wish for more variety (currently perhaps a bit too much to ask). While playing with my friend, we nearly always had the same Temtem, especially since you always get the same ones from the story.”

The Redditor M_Odds says: “I haven’t had this much excitement for a Pokémon/monster collecting game since the early 2000s. It’s currently 3 AM. I made my Alpha purchase a little earlier this night and have now completely fallen in love with the critters and the game mechanics. I haven’t managed to reach the 2nd big city/route yet. Aside from a few lags at the beginning, I had a very good gaming experience.”

The user BAK47ED: “Honestly, it’s very profound. The Temtem you use will make a difference. The play style is crucial, and the mental games I’ve played so far for competitive battles show a lot of depth in combat and team composition.”

7 Things that are special about Temtem

  • Completely online: Temtem focuses entirely on an online experience. Meet up with your friends, challenge them to battles or trade Temtem with them.
  • Co-op story mode with dual battles: The main campaign can be completed together with your friends. Team up against other Temtem trainers.
  • individual character design: Create your own trainer in the character editor at the start and customize them later.
  • no random factor in battles: Battles require 100% skill and tactics.
  • PVP: Challenge your friends and other trainers. Tournaments and ranked matches including a leaderboard are also planned.
  • Stylish graphics: Temtem looks great thanks to the Unity Engine.
  • planned crossplay: If all goes well, interaction between all platforms should be possible.

What features does Temtem have – and what’s still missing?

The developers have announced several content and features that are currently not present in the game. Some content has only been partially implemented for now.

Here’s a checklist:

Breeding Not available
Housing Not available
Trading with other players Completed
Co-op features Available
6 islands to explore 2 out of 6
Story campaign Not fully completed
Character design Completed
PvP
Tournaments
Leaderboard
Available
Available
Not available
Number of Temtem 46 out of planned 141+
Battle in Temtem
The turn-based battles are fought 2 vs. 2 and do not rely on random elements.

That’s why it’s worth keeping an eye on Temtem

This is what Temtem offers now: The game currently offers around 10 hours of fun due to the missing content and already seems to be a solid experience technically.
A larger influx of content is expected with the start of the early access phase in early autumn.

This is the forecast for the future: The development of Temtem is progressing diligently. The developers of Crema regularly release new updates with bug fixes, balance adjustments, and new features. Details are shared with the community in the official Temtem forum, and player feedback is also considered for future changes.

For all fans of monster collecting games like Pokémon, Temtem remains an interesting game.

Everything we already know about Season 10 in Fortnite – Start, End, Theories

Season 10 is approaching in Fortnite soon. There will be a new Battle Pass, a new theme, and possibly major map changes. We will tell you everything about the start date, the end, and what theories are currently circulating.

When does Season 10 start? Season 10 is set to start on August 1. Season 9 is currently in its 10th week and could end after that. This would be on July 18. However, it is likely to be extended by 2 weeks.

The reason for this is the big Fortnite World Cup, which takes place from July 26 to 28. Epic confirmed that Season 9 is still being played there and that the new season will not start yet.

Usually, a new season starts on a Thursday. The first available date would therefore be August 1. Epic also confirmed this on their website.

When does Season 10 end? According to a rumor from a leaker on Twitter, Season 10 is supposed to end again on October 10, 2019.

World Cup
Due to the World Cup, Season 10 will start a bit later

What will the Battle Pass cost? So far, Battle Passes have always cost 950 V-Bucks, which is 9.50 euros. It is possible that this price will be maintained.

What is known about the end of Season 9? Currently, there are a lot of rumors about the end, as a lot is happening on the map of Fortnite.

A giant monster initially destroyed Polar Peak and then some houses. It is currently swimming around the map. Additionally, a large robot is being built in Pressure Plant.

Robot Factory FN
This giant robot is currently being created in Pressure Plant

It is suspected that the two colossi will then fight each other and that the players will be part of a live event.

In line with this, a countdown has now appeared in the game. This is supposed to expire on Saturday evening, July 20 at 8 PM. So the big live event at the end of the season could start then.

Can one expect map changes? Many players suspect that the battle between the monster and the robot will destroy most of the map and that players will finally get a completely new map.

However, it is considered unlikely that the map will be destroyed on July 20. After all, the Fortnite World Cup will take place only after that, and the professionals would have to deal with completely new circumstances.

So far, there has been no season that did not result in map changes. It is therefore possible that some places will disappear and others will be added. However, nothing is known about this yet.

Where a change seems plausible is the ice area. After all, it was added in winter 2018 and is now not really fitting. Something new could certainly emerge here.

Could the ice world of Fortnite soon disappear?

Is the theme of Season 10 already known? Epic is still keeping quiet about that. The last seasons have always been announced with small teasers. These have not yet been made public, but could certainly still come. Presumably in the days leading up to August 1.

There is still not much information about Season 10. However, there are many theories. A summary of the epic battle that is about to take place can be found here:

How fans are reacting to the new skins

These skins are praised: On Reddit, especially the new Project Skins for Warwick and Irelia are praised:

  • “Damn, the Warwick looks really clean. I’m definitely going to get that one”
  • “If they can just fix Warwick’s clumsiness, it would be a dream come true for WW mains. A great skin AND bug fixes in one patch”
  • “In the end, you can see Warwick’s face. That really fits the theme of a human turning into a monster”
  • “Irelia looks insane”
  • “Even though I hate Irelia with all my heart, her skin really looks very very good”
  • “Wow, the Irelia skin looks really clean. Now I guess I have to learn how to play her”

Pyke’s port animation is also praised. Players compare the summoned monster to a Steelix from Pokémon.

For this skin, there is criticism: The Project Skin of Jinx is not received well. Here, players express suggestions to improve the skin.

  • “Please don’t use the same auto-attack sounds as Jinx’s standard skin”
  • “All these skins look super, except Jinx. Although, I take that back. Jinx doesn’t look bad, she just doesn’t look like a Project Skin”
  • “I don’t really like the Jinx skin I was looking forward to. You don’t really feel the Jinx vibe, just a robot girl”

Other players point out that the skins are probably still in development and could still change in terms of sounds or appearance.
