BGMI was the most trending game in India before it was banned. With a thriving esports scene comes a lot of branding and tournament prize. The prize money ranged in crores and here are the top players that have taken the biggest share out of it.

PUBG Mobile is correlated to BGMI in this list as the pros switched from one game to the other in the past three years.

The total earnings out of BGMI was $2,175,802 and apparently, players from GodLike Esports have taken the biggest share. The list is as follows:

  • MortaL: The pro-turned content creator, SouL MortaL, is a well-known BGMI player from India. His earnings from the esports tournaments crossed $50,000.
  • Viper: Fourth on this list is Mortal’s teammate, Viper, who played alongside him and earnt a sum of $56,000.

  • Jonathan: The “hacker” from GodLike won multiple MVP awards, taking him to a winning amount of $77,000.
  • ClutchGod: The IGL of GodLike tops this list by earning just a few bucks more than Jonathan

Why is Jonathan the best BGMI player in India

0

Any mobile gamer in India knows who Jonathan is as he is the biggest BGMI pro player in India. Jonathan has gained a name for himself for his notorious plays and insane clutches that gave him the title of “hacker” in Indian servers.

Here are the top six traits that make Jonathan the best BGMI player in India.

  • Insane Aim: Jonathan is one of the best talents India has ever produced in terms of raw mechanism. Before getting fame, Jonathan was termed as a hacker by many because no one could imagine such a precise aim by a budding player while PUBG Mobile was still in its early stages of building an esports ecosystem in India. Jonathan is a regular name seen on kill leaderboards when Team GodLike plays in any tournament.
  • Controlled Aggression: Jonathan has been playing on the front foot before the meta of aggressive gameplay reached India. Jonathan and company were considered the most dominating team in India because no other roster could manage to stand against them when the entire team was firing with their weaponry. Amidst this, Jonathan attacks players head-on but also knows when to stop as overly aggressive push can sometimes lead to the decimation of teams.
  • Team Backup: Jonathan has emerged as a star because he has an incredible team to back him up. The current GodLike roster of Neyoo, Clutchgod, ZGod, and Jonathan has not changed in the last two years despite changing organizations. Jonathan now has a habit to play with this team and this flourishes his performance even more. Despite going into a slump phase, Jonathan has stuck with his team.
  • Positive Mindset: No fan has ever seen Jonathan go into an uncontrolled aggressive state or in a sad state due to his performance. Jonathan is always smiling and aiming to make a comeback if the team loses and celebrates when they win. This attitude is one of the key factors in Jonathan’s success in this ever-evolving industry of esports.
  • Potential to win: Jonathan can win in tournaments even if he is the last person surviving in that match. Nobody can give up their hopes until Jonathan is alive in the game. For instance, Jonathan was the last surviving player from the team in a match of PMWL 2020. He went on to survive till the final circle in Erangel and win a 1 Vs 3 clutch against Team Secret to win the map. Performances like this led them to finish sixth on the global stage at PMWL East 2020.
  • MVP: Jonathan is a star from Team GodLike and is always in contention for the MVP award. He has secured the title of MVP on multiple occasions like the recent Skyesports Championship 3.0, Loco War of Glory, and other tournaments. 

These are the learnings that one can take to become like Jonathan and get better at the game while approaching every duel or fighting mindfully in ranked and custom matches.

How to Improve Your Team in BGMI?

0

BGMI is a team game and it is very important that a roster needs to understand the essential things that make or break the game.

Cooperation and coexistence are two of the most important and underrated skills that often get shadowed when one looks to improve their gameplay in BGMI. Here are five pointers that you can work on to carry your team to victory.

Communication

Communication is a key factor in multiplayer games such as BGMI. You need to keep your voice chat on and tell others to do so. Having a good communication line is half battle won. 

Positive reinforcement

One should not be blamed for making small mistakes in-game. Players often tend to lose their temper when their teammate makes mistakes in a heated game. 

Clear goals

Prioritizing a common goal is very necessary as multiple decisions can lead up to a messier situation.

Leadership

One player should act as a leader and guide others towards the commonly prioritised goal. A team without leadership does not have anyone to rely on.

Accountability 

Even though one should not be blamed for bad actions, one should be held accountable. Rectifying mistakes is a small step towards making progress in the long run.

If a team focuses on these pointers, they can bolster their play style and become the best BGMI team and continue to improve on their solo plays as well as their team efforts.

Adin Ross Urges Kai Cenat to Join Kick, Following Ban

0

Adin Ross has called on fellow streaming superstar Kai Cenat to join him on the rapidly-growing platform Kick after Kai was banned from Twitch on April 17. Adin, who has also faced multiple bans from Twitch and now streams on Kick, urged Kai to make the move and leave Twitch behind for good.

Adin and Kai are two of the biggest streamers in the world, with both boasting massive followings and dedicated fan bases. However, both have had their fair share of issues with Twitch in recent times. Adin was banned permanently from the Amazon-owned platform earlier this year, and Kai was also hit with a ban, leaving fans wondering what the future held for the streaming superstar.

Adin wasted no time in reaching out to Kai following his ban, urging him to make the switch to Kick. During a FaceTime call, Adin quizzed Kai on how he was feeling and whether he would consider joining the Kick platform.

Kai seemed hesitant, telling Adin that no platform could make him do anything and that he was bigger than any platform. However, Adin argued that Kai was worth far more than Twitch was offering him, and that Kick would be a happy and healthy home for him to stream on.

Adin’s move to Kick has proven to be a major success, with the platform quickly becoming one of the fastest-growing in the streaming world. Trainwreck, who is behind the platform, has signed a number of big-name streamers to exclusive deals, and Adin’s arrival was seen as a major coup.

Now, Adin is hoping that Kai will follow in his footsteps and make the move to Kick. While Kai seemed hesitant during their FaceTime call, it remains to be seen whether he will eventually take the plunge and leave Twitch behind for good.

Regardless of whether Kai decides to join him on Kick, Adin’s move to the platform has highlighted the growing popularity of alternative streaming services to Twitch. With more and more streamers facing bans and other issues on Twitch, platforms like Kick are becoming increasingly attractive to those looking for a new home to stream from. As such, it seems likely that we will see more big-name streamers make the switch to platforms like Kick in the coming months and years.

Is CS2 going to propel the counter-strike to even greater heights?

0

The announcement of Counter-Strike 2 has sent excitement throughout the gaming industry, fans are eagerly anticipating its release. As one of the most popular and enduring esports titles of all time, Counter-Strike has long been the face of the competitive gaming scene.

And now, with the announcement of a sequel, many are wondering whether this new entry will propel the franchise to even greater heights.

With the announcement of Counter-Strike 2, the already famous esports scene for CS:GO will only continue to grow. As the game evolves and more players join the competitive scene, there will undoubtedly be an increase in the number of players interested in betting on esports matches. Sports betting has already significantly impacted traditional sports, and the growth of esports has opened a new world of opportunities for those interested in placing wagers. 

One of the most exciting facts of the announcement is that Counter-Strike 2 will be a free upgrade to CSGO. This is a bold move on the part of Valve, as it means that anyone who already owns CSGO can play the new game without having to spend any additional money. 

Of course, there is always the question of whether a sequel can live up to the expectations set by its predecessor. CSGO has been one of the most successful esports titles ever, with millions of players and fans worldwide. 

Based on the information released so far, Valve is taking this challenge seriously. The developer diaries that have been released show a deep level of care and attention paid to developing the new game.

The team is focused on improving the gameplay mechanics, graphics, and overall game experience. And with limited tests of the early match builds expected to run in the months ahead, Valve is likely taking a careful and considered approach to the game’s development.

In a video titled “Leveling Up the World,” Valve says that maps will get a new look in CS2 but that experienced players’ skills should carry over. The company also discusses the games’ three “tiers” of maps.

There are “touchstone” levels, such as Dust II, that have minor visual tweaks but are essentially unchanged, and that should let people get a feel for the new gameplay in a familiar setting. Some maps have been upgraded or overhauled, which have either had Source 2 features added or have been entirely rebuilt. 

Valve’s spokesperson, Kaci Aitchison Boyle, explains that while the complete set of new features for Counter-Strike 2 will be unveiled at the game’s launch, a limited testing period will allow them to evaluate a subset of those features to prepare for its worldwide release. Additionally, Valve hints at plans to add a significant amount of new content to the game, as there is “much more to come.” The company promises to reveal all of the details of Counter-Strike 2 in a few months. 

Summary

Ultimately, the success of Counter-Strike 2 will come down to how well the gaming community receives it. But based on what we’ve observed so far, there is certainly reason to be optimistic. Valve is taking the development of the new game seriously, and the decision to offer it as a free upgrade to CSGO is a bold move that could pay off in a big way.
