G2 Esports triumph over Team Liquid at Blast Premier World Final

The BLAST Premier World Final has finally come to an end with Rasmus “HooXi” Nielsen and his men sweeping Team Liquid 2-0 in the Grand Finals.

The Multi-national side takes home a lion’s share of $500,00 USD from the $1M USD prize pool. After a year of lackluster showings, G2 Esports seem to have risen to prominence by achieving this feat in Abu Dabhi.

The win was the organization’s first Big Event win since DreamHack Masters Malmö 2017 when they still had an all-French squad. Team Liquid looked destitute and listless in the Finals as G2 with no room for error cruised past them. After losing the opening series against FaZe, G2 defeated Outsiders in the Group A lower final, Vitality in the quarters, and FaZe again in the semis to reach the grand final.

The players under the spotlight were Justin “jks” Savage and HooXi who were believed to perform under impending scrutiny. For jks, the 27-year-old Aussie kicked off 2022 with the Intel Extreme Masters XVI – Katowice triumph under FaZe Clan to running it back with G2 at the Blast Premier.

With every challenging odd to face, HooXi made sure to leave no stone unturned when he was to steer G2 after Aleksib’s axe. By winning the tournament’s Most Valuable Player title, Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov was set as the tournament’s youngest champion. The AWPer, who is only 17 years old, finished the record competition with a rating of 1.24 across all 12 maps, which was the highest rating in the event.

Below is the data of the final standings across the Blast Premier World Final alongside the breakup of the prize money.

How to set up Minecraft server for free using Minehut?

0

Millions of players across the world enjoy playing Minecraft, one of the finest survival games. To play Minecraft with your friends, however, you must set up your own private server, unlike other multiplayer games. In addition, maintaining a server 24/7 may be expensive, not to mention the high cost of the game itself.

You may create your own free Minecraft server with no additional fees using sites like Minehut and Aternos. We will go through how to set up a Minecraft server using Minehut in this tutorial.

How to set up Minecraft server for free using Minehut?

Visit Minehut.com and select the Sign Up in Seconds option to create a free game server. Fill in your name and other information on the next screen. Next, click Sign Up to complete the account creation process. When that, Minehut will automatically log you into your account after you confirm your email address.

Click the Add Server button on the account dashboard, enter the appropriate server name, and press Create. To use your free Minecraft server, click the Activate Server button when the screen has loaded. You will be asked to wait for 30 seconds while Minehut sets up the server for you. When the DDOS-protected server transfer question displays, click on the Continue button.

You can manage the current game world, add and configure Minecraft add-ons, browse game files using the file manager, start and stop the server, visit the console, and generate backups from the server dashboard. By sliding down the page, you may also modify the server’s “Message of the Day” or experiment with its settings.

As you can see, only 10 players are permitted to join the server under the free server plan. Additionally, a free account entitles you to the creation of two servers. Additionally, Minehut enables cross-platform play, allowing users from both Java and Bedrock Edition to connect to your server.

Java users of Minecraft can connect to the server directly by entering the server address in the game (servername.minehut.gg). However, in order to connect to the server, Bedrock or Pocket Edition users must do an additional step. You must first connect to port 19132 of the bedrock.minehut.com server. To connect to the server, use “/join servername.minehut.gg” in the chat window. You’ll be instantly transferred to that specific world if the server is active.

CSGO has a total of 34 weapons that are divided into 4 categories. These include Pistols, 10 of which are available, 11 Rifles, 7 kinds of SMGs and 6 Heavy Weapons.

Each weapon set has their own unique characteristics, as well as cost which come into play. Some weapons may be good for partial buys but may not be useful vs Full buys.

Some may be life savers in eco rounds, while some may give you an edge in long range combats. The thing with CSGO is, is that almost all weapons, bar 1 or 2, will yield you a kill in certain situations.

CSGO WEAPONS DAMAGE CHART, KILL REWARD, PRICE ETC.

Each weapon in CSGO yields a certain amount of damage to the body. The damage is maximum when shooting at the head. Each kill with a weapon also gives some kill reward in terms of money, for the AWP it is $100 per kill while for SMGs like the MP9 it is $600 per kill. Down below is the full list for pistols:

Tec-9$500$300334.000x1824023.0

SHOTGUNS

These are good for short range fights, especially on smaller maps like Inferno. These are useful in force buy rounds, especially on the CT side. And buying them is almost never a waste as the high kill reward makes up for the purchasing cost, with each kill netting the player $900.

XM1014$2,000$900204.000x721580.0

SMGs

Sub machine guns are very useful in CSGO when it comes to close quarter combat (CQC). The high fire rate up close can shred players very easily, especially when they dont have a helmet. SMGs are also highly accurate when moving, so running around while shooting makes the player difficult to hit for the opponent as well.

UMP-45$1,200$600354.000x2523023.

ASSAULT RIFLES

Rifles are the go to weapons for every CSGO players. They yield the most damage, and are best for close, mid and even long range fights.

There is very little damage drop off and they are very accurate over range making it the best weapon to use in CSGO.

In ARs, the AK47 and the SG 553 can kill players with a single bullet to the head, even if they are wearing a helmet.

This makes it a very potent weapon to have. The M4A1-S has taken over the M4A4 in recent times with the increased damage. The silencer means no bullet tracers, making it easier to spam through smokes.

SG 553$3,000$300304.000x3021028.0

LMGs

Light Machine Guns are the least commonly used weapons in CSGO due to the low movement speed that comes with it. LMGs are also pretty inaccurate with low damage. The Negev is used by players on occasion, usually to spam smokes in the hopes that that’ll net them a kill.

SNIPERS


Snipers are scoped rifles, useful for long range duels. The AWP is the primary Sniper in CSGO, as it has a one bullet one kill policy.

It does 85 damage if it hits the legs, but apart from that, a shot anywhere is a straight up kill. The SSG08 or the Scout is useful for force buys, its high movement speed and ~70 damage with each bullet can be deadly. The scout also kills with a single bullet to the head.

SSG 08$1,700$300884.000x1023033.0

WHICH WEAPONS MUST BE USED IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS?

PISTOL ROUNDS

The first round of a CSGO match is always the pistol round. The default pistols are pretty useful in these rounds so a player is better off just buying the $650 Kevlar. Some teams equip their best player with a P250, by dropping the pistol to them for the raid-boss setup. Like s1mple with NaVi.

The p250 can kill with a single bullet to the head over range, unlike the glock which can only do it up close. 

The P200 and USP-S are both useful on the CT  side and dont need alternatives. More bullets in the P200 come at the cost of slight inaccuracy over range.

FORCE BUYS

T side force buys usually consist of MAC-10s and Galil ARs. The Galil has the fire rate of the M4A4 but is slightly inaccurate, but still very useful for force buys. MAC-10s with their high jumping  accuracy can surprise opponents and can melt CTs without helmets.

On the CT side, MP-9 and FAMAS are the go to weapons for force buys. Some players like arT from FURIA prefer the MAG-7 shotgun and it is viable on maps like Inferno. Dust2 force buys can be Scout heavy with 2 scouts in play during force buys.

ANTI ECO ROUNDS

Anti eco rounds are the best to make money, hence players prefer SMGs like the MP9 or the MAC-10 on the T side.

This helps the team build a bank from the start, but can be a problem if teams face the next gun round with the SMGs still in hand. That is why some players go for the standard AK-47 or the M4 in anti ecos. 

FULL BUY ROUNDS

Full buy rounds are pretty standard, with the CTs  having 1 or 2 AWPs surrounded by M4s. M4A4 and the M4A1-s dont kill with a single bullet to the head, but do around 90 damage so players need to use their nades smartly to get the opponent near that mark.

On the T side, players usually buy the AK-47, or the  SG553 as a rifle. The Krieg’s scope can give them an edge, but the slower rate of fire takes away the buff.

There is usually 1 AWP on the T side, and on maps like Inferno and Nuke, some players prefer to rifle altogether.

Logan Paul facing backlash for attacking best friend’s religion on Impaulsive

0

Logan Paul has gotten himself into more controversies than one can count, and by the looks of things, he has successfully added one more to his tally following his comments on Christianity.

During an episode of the Impaulsive podcast, Logan Paul questioned the emotional intelligence of Geroge, who everyone perceives as his best friend. What prompted the fans to speak up against him was the elder Paul brother using his religious belief to insult him.

An attack on religion never goes unnoticed by the masses. Logan may have successfully pitted a large part of his audience against him by choosing to insult his best friend by downplaying his religious beliefs.

Logan Paul called out George for his belief in Christianity as “f***ing silly” and thought it “deserves satire.” George said, “Genuinely, I know people who hate me that treat me better about my faith than you, and you’re my best friend.”

As uncomfortable as this conversation is, I’m very proud of us. And I’ll tell you why: because nobody else would have the guts to have this kind of conversation out there,” George added.

Logan Paul called into question the belief of many of his fans which can be summarized as “lethal PR.” Even though he is no stranger to heavy criticism, openly criticizing religious beliefs is outrageous, even by his standards.

Fans have flooded Twitter with Tweets against Logan, with many calling for strict action while some suggest boycotting him altogether. Logan hasn’t spoken up since then, much less a public apology, and only time can tell where this goes.

Valve permanently bans Virtus Pro Dota 2 players for account sharing

Open qualifiers for the Dota 2 2023 DPC have begun, with teams finally having finalized their lineups. Both newcomers and seasoned competitors have been trying their luck in the Closed Qualifiers, with some actively trying to game the system from the very start, earlier today.

Dota 2’s global qualifiers have begun, but the DPC leagues have yet to begin. From the looks of things, Valve is more dedicated to a level playing field this season than in years past.

PGL’s official Twitter account broke the news, with the organizer revealing the names of those permanently prohibited from participating in any upcoming or ongoing Valve competitions.

All players on the list are permanently barred from PGL competitions and are also permanently banned from future Valve competitions. If they want to play competitive Dota 2, the players will only be permitted to play in minor tournaments not affiliated with Valve or PGL.

Those gamers were found guilty of impersonating other players and sharing their accounts with others in order to help their teams advance in the Open Qualifiers.

Valve has also banned Gianluca “Migi” Mendoza, a South American gamer, for match-fixing.

Using another player’s account to compete in a game or competition is known as “account sharing,” whereas “impersonation” entails falsely claiming to be a member of an opposing team. Both of these tactics are banned from competitive Dota 2 games, with Valve previously taking a hard stance against them.

Valve has sent a strong statement that it will not stand for any form of unfair play or cheating in its events by banning these ten players. The severity of the repercussions should make future gamers think twice before engaging in similar behavior.

It is unclear how these sanctions will affect the teams and players, but they will undoubtedly face considerable interruptions and problems as they rebuild and move forward. However, the long-term impact of these bans may prevent other players from similar actions.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns: How To Find & Use The Offering Bowl?

0

One of the unusual artifacts you may have heard about while playing Marvel’s Midnight Suns is the Offering Bowl. Many gamers are unsure of how to use it or how it operates. However, you may acquire it quite soon in your gameplay and it is actually highly helpful equipment. See how the Offering bowl functions in Midnight Suns, where to find it, and how to use it in this article.

One of the numerous artifacts that The Hunter must study is the Offering Bowl, which takes some practice to perfect. The Offering Bowl in Midnight Suns may be located and used in the following manner.

How To Find & Use The Offering Bowl?

Research artifacts can be traded for Arcane Keys using the special game feature called The Offering Bowl. These keys might be helpful since they unlock Arcane Chests, which you can discover while exploring the Abbey grounds and earning different goodies.

You must locate Agatha Harkness, who is only present at night in the Abbey Library, in order to open the Offering Bowl. When you interact with her, she will tell you that you may discover a bowl on her altar, which is located in the Agatha’s Altar location, and that she will leave the remainder for you to investigate. By ascending the main route until you reach the area’s entrance, you may go to Agatha’s Altar location, west of The Abbey. You may reach the Offering Bowl by taking the staircase to the left after leaving the stairs at the Elemental Altar in the center of the space.

When you successfully locate the Offering Bowl at Agatha’s Altar, you can interact with it to see what can be put inside of it. These particular things are connected to the stuff you’ll get via quests and research tasks. The only time you can utilize this Offering Bowl is at night when you can also encounter Agatha. Once you have an item, go to the Offering Bowl and click with it to pick “Place Item” and select an artifact from the list.

Nothing much occurs when it is put, however according to some players, you must utilize the Words of Powers to activate the offering in exchange for an Arcane Key. Although it isn’t specified, the “Open” Word of Power appears to be effective in the majority of situations; yet, certain artifacts require one of the other Words of Power.

One of the most popular sitcoms in Family Guy will likely find a place in Fortnite given Epic Games previously teased it. However, with the plethora of collaboration that we are getting to see in Chapter 4 Season 1, it would not too far-fetched to think that now is finally the time Family Guy comes to Fortnite.

Back when Epic was showcasing the potential of Unreal Engine 5 and how Fortnite would look when the developers finally deploy it. During their presentation, Epic revealed plenty of upcoming updates where fans were quick to spot a folder that hinted towards a Family Guy collaboration.

While there is no official statement about this but Epic Games have built a reputation over the years to throw in major collaborations as surprises to the fans. With Family Guy being an extremely popular animated sitcom, there will be no shortage of takers for it in the game.

Although there is no clear release date for this, we can assume that given the amount of content Epic Games have put into Chapter 4 Season 1, it cannot be a surprise to anyone if Family Guy finally makes it to the game.
