The universes of esports and football impacted by and by when T1 Faker traded pullovers with Korean football star Son Heung-min.

Simply seven days prior, Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok and the T1 crew connected up with Son during Tottenham Hotspur’s worldwide pre-season visit. The English Premier League club’s most memorable stop was South Korea, where they confronted Team K League and Sevilla.

The T1 troop held up marked Hotspur shirts with their names printed over the football player’s number. Consequently, Son got his own red and dark T1 shirt endorsed by the LCK group.

Preceding the pullover trade, Faker hobnobbed with the Korean football star on a couple of events. The two featured in a progression of SKT promotions beginning around 2019. The T1 mid laner had responded to one of their prior plugs and lauded Sonny’s acting abilities.

After Tottenham’s last match in his nation of origin, Sonny offered his thanks. “The week went excessively fast for me. It was a fantasy. The fans were amazing,” he said in a meeting.

Son and his group head back to the United Kingdom for a pre-season match against Scottish club Rangers F.C. on July 23.

T1 presently holds a 9-1 record in the LCK and will confront Kwangdong Freecs this evening at 5 p.m. GMT+9 | 4 p.m. GMT+8 | 8 a.m. GMT | 1 a.m. PT.

Valorant Pro Tenz asks fans to disable Bullet Tracers for improving spray In Game

0

Spraying with weapons has always remained an integral part of competitive FPS games like CSGO or Valorant.

While spraying may not be very viable in long-range duels, it’s still crucial for any close to mid-range gunfights, which is why most players need to learn the spray patterns for the different weapons out there.

Spraying in Valorant is considered to be more difficult than in CSGO, especially due to the fact that there are some elements of randomness in Valorant weapon sprays whereas CSGO sprays can be perfected with practice.

In one of his recent livestreams, Sentinels star Tyson “TenZ” Ngo has explained how simply turning off an in-game Valorant setting can significantly improve your sprays in the game.

While bullet tracers generally act as an indication of where the bullets from weapons are going, TenZ says that they can often be misleading and cause players to mess up their sprays.

“It was mostly with the Vandal that I noticed this,” the 21-year-old said. “The tracers are not synced all the time. Sometimes I look at the tracers to compensate my spray and I feel like sometimes it just messed my spray up.”

You can take a look at the clip here.

The obvious solution to this problem would be to disable the in-game bullet tracers, but that could cause problems since the tracers can also be quite useful at times. For instance, tracers can help you locate your enemies when they’re firing through a smoke with an unsilenced weapon.

The bullet tracers can be turned off from the General settings in the Valorant menu. Disabling this may also give you a slight boost in FPS.

As per the press release the global sponsorship deal will be valid for one year and will see Coca-Cola become Guild’s “Official Soft Drinks and Hydration Partner.”

The total contract value of the sponsorship deal is “confidential and payable in cash” and the package value will be based on unique experiences and providing opportunities for gamers across the globe.

Kal Hourd, Chief Executive of Guild Esports, said:

“Guild is signing up some of the world’s most respected brands and we are very proud to welcome Coca-Cola as a sponsor and partner. They want to collaborate with Guild because we deliver great entertainment and memorable experiences for a millennial, hard-to-reach audience in one of the fastest growing segments of the sports entertainment industry.”

Guild Esports Coca Cola Deal

Coca-Cola becomes Guild’s sixth sponsor, joining the likes of Bitstamp, Razer, Samsung, Subway, and HyperX.

The last few months have been turbulent for the esports organization. Just last month, Guild Esports reported a loss of £4.96m and saw its staff numbers drop significantly from 45 to 30. In July, Kit Brunswick joined the organization as its Safeguarding and Wellbeing Lead.

While on the competitive front the esports organization secured various high-place finishes across the board but failed to convert any high-place finish into tournament victory. Over the last few weeks, the organization finished second place at the FIFA eWorld Cup and Gamers8’s Rocket League tournament.

Chamber To Get Nerf Second Time, Confirms Valorant Devs

0

Added to the game back in November 2021, The Frenchman Vincent Frabron aka Chamber is a weapons designer for Kingdom. He was a major suspect in the Everett-Linda research facility incident and had met his omega counterpart. He met Brimstone and Viper and was introduced in Valorant as the eighteenth agent. 

The Fourth Sentinel added to the game is much more than just a sentinel. With his aim-centered abilities and economy light kit, Chamber has become one of the most picked agents in Valorant, leaving behind the likes of Jett and Sova in pro play.

In Casual lobbies, we see a Chamber in every match, with most people switching from Jett to Chamber as the kit offered makes him a much better operator agent than Jett. With a pocket Guardian and an Operator which shoots like a Marshal, a good Chamber was a force on defense and offense. 

The Chamber kit additionally provides the ability Rendezvous, which teleports Chamber to a previously set point allowing him to duel early and to escape the duel when he finds it appropriate. The headhunter ability of Chamber offers eight bullets, with each bullet costing 50 credits initially and 100 credits now. 

The Trademark ability offers an interesting slowing of the enemy and is crucial for taking care of flanks. Initially, two strong trademarks defended the sites and were hard to deal with, and later they were nerfed and reduced to one. 

The nerf to Chamber’s Trademark and not to his damaging ability had a severe backlash from the community. Everyone felt this made Chamber more of a Duelist than a Sentinel. With increasing pick rates, everyone believes his ultimate Tour de Force and the Headhunter should be nerfed as they seem overpowered.

Chamber To Get Nerf Again Confirms Valorant Dev

In a Reddit post answering the same, Riot Dev Penguin suggested a Chamber nerf is on the horizon. The upcoming nerf would not traditionally be a nerf but a rework to Chamber, making him more balanced and ensuring other sentinels get their due diligence.

The changes aren’t coming soon and will be out later this year. The changes will be focused on making other Sentinels as reliable as Chamer and balancing out Chambers’s aim concentrated abilities.
