FPX secure their first Int’l win at Valorant Masters Copenhagen

The second day of Valorant Champions Masters Copenhagen started with APAC’s second seat, XERXIA Esports, taking on EMEA’s FunPlus Phoenix.

FunPlus Phoenix came into the game with a lot to prove as this was their debut match, while also they were playing with a Substitute as Suygetsu wasn’t able to get the VISA for the event. 

XERXIA, though, is known to pull off upsets left and right and has International experience. 

The Map veto started with XERXIA banning fracture. A map FPX is known to be good on. While FPX chose to ban Icebox, a map they don’t play. 

Xerxia chose to play bind, the last time they played BInd was against Paper Rex, and they had lost the game. It is also a strong map for FPX. At the same time, FPX chose to play Ascent, Their comfort pick. 

For the second ban, Xerxia banned Split, and FPX banned Breeze to end on Haven. 

Bind started with FPX on defense, where they had difficulty holding off Xerxia’s attack. Xerxia seemed in control for the time and won six out of the first nine rounds. But FPX managed to stop the bleeding and won two out of the following three rounds to close the half 5-7. 

Xerxia on defense started struggling with losing the starting four rounds. But Surf’s operator managed to save them, winning them four rounds in a row to make the game 11-9 in their favor. 

FPX found gaps in Xerxia’s defense and closed the next three rounds to reach the match point first. Xerxia, in the last round, managed to close the last round to force an OT. 

The first OT with FPX on defense completely caught Xerxia players off-guard winning the first two duels to win the first OT round. 

The second round was going well for Xerxia, but an over-extension from foxz resulted in Xerxia losing the round. They lost the game 12-14 and have to play FPXs’s pick down one map. 

On the second map, Ascent started with Xerxia on defense. Despite a shaky start, Surf’s Operator won seven rounds out of the first twelve on the ground of their unparalleled aggression. 

In the second half, the Xerxia aggression continued, and they managed to win the six-round pretty easily despite losing the starting two and closing out the game 13-9. 

With this, Xerxia and FunPlus Phoenix exchanged each other map picks, resetting to play the third map, Haven.

Haven started dominantly for FPX, where they managed to win the four rounds despite winning the first round. 

Xerxia, though, managed to come back, winning three rounds consecutively, and the back and forth started with the half ending in 5-7.

In the final half of the series, FPX is on the attack, struggles, and has a tough time finding an answer to Xerxia’s defense and Surf’s Operator. But they succeeded in finding a way to penetrate the Xerxia defense, eventually winning the final map 13-10. 

With this, FPX won the game 2-1 and moved on to face DRX tomorrow for a chance to qualify, while Xerxia would face Northeption in an elimination game.

Apex Legends Mobile Season 2 Patch Notes

0

Apex Legends Mobile Season 2 is here and brings with it a plethora of changes that one may not have expected. Alongside a new character, the game also boasts major changes and bug fixes with quality of life improvements.

The Patch Notes from EA read the following:”

NEW LEGEND:

Rhapsody

The best way to understand Rhapsody, is through her music. The droning pulse speaks of her childhood in Kómma where the tech giant Pythas Inc. controls all. The steady rhythm reflects her supportive mother, a brilliant AI engineer. And the booming bass resembles Rowdy, the robot companion her mother created to amplify her daughter’s voice. Life was good, but good times in Kómma never last long. 

When her mother was fired from Pythas Inc. for discovering company secrets, her family was buried in false debt and forced into the dangerous nightlife district: Neon Dunes. There, Rhapsody honed her art. The unrest around her inspired groundbreaking music with a rebellious heart, capturing the passion of its people.

Rhapsody’s reputation grew, earning her an invitation to perform on the wealthy side of town. She seized this opportunity not as a chance to advance her career but as a ploy to install a virus designed by her mother to wipe out the family’s debt. However, the virus proved too powerful; it corrupted the entire district’s finances. To avoid Pythas’s wrath, Rhapsody signed an agreement with them to join the Apex Games under their banner. But that’s just her cover. Rhapsody plans on topping the Apex charts until she’s earned enough to buy her way out of this “sponsorship deal” and win her family’s life back.

Passive: Gifted Ear

You pick up and visualize sounds from an extended range

Tactical: Hype Anthem

Play a powerful track that speeds up nearby squadmates and recharges shields. Taking damage will end the effect.

King’s Canyon

1 / 3

Pythas Block 0

New Anime-Themed CS:GO Stickers are Taking Over the Internet: Kawai Offensive

Since the dawn of the release of CSGO, stickers have always remained one of the most popular choices of purchase for skin-enthusiasts and investors alike.

Stickers in CSGO can be applied on any weapon skin in the game, and with the plethora of stickers available in the marketplace, players have the freedom to express themselves by creating unique combinations of various stickers on their weapon skins. 

If you’re an Anime fan who likes customizing their skins with stickers, you might just be in luck. A Belarusian CSGO fan and community content creator has developed a couple of Anime-themed CSGO stickers that are currently taking over the internet. 

The sticker collection has been named as ‘Kawai Offensive’ by creator ‘Milong’, and to call it cute would be an understatement. The stickers have been made for the CSGO10 sticker contest that was announced by Valve a few months ago as part of the celebrations for the tenth anniversary of CSGO.

The Kawai Offensive collection features two stickers: Terrorist_Chan and CT_Chan, with both of them looking equally as gorgeous.

The Terrorist_Chan sticker features a female Anime-themed character holding a knife in each hand, with a star located in the middle of both knives, which looks similar to the Terrorist side symbol in the game itself. The sticker can be scraped to reveal a change in the expression of the character, with the words “How dare you… Scraping me?” appearing.

The CT_Chan sticker also features an Anime-themed character with V-signs in each hand. Scraping the sticker will reveal the character in an entirely new position with the words “Why are you scraping me?” appearing.

Do note that it’s still not certain if the Kawai Offensive stickers will be making it to the game, but with the amount of traction that the stickers are getting, it’s safe to say that fans have a good chance of seeing them in the upcoming CSGO10 Sticker Capsule.
