The ever-expanding list of characters in the open-world action RPG Genshin Impact continues to grow with the release of Collei. The 4-star bow wielder will be joining the title as a playable character soon, and fans can’t wait to see her in action.
Previously, we’ve seen HoYoverse announcing the new characters Collei and Tighnari as the first Dendro characters arriving to Genshin Impact. While Tighnari has already been added to the roster of playable characters, players haven’t had the chance to meet Collei as of yet.
Genshin Impact Collei Abilities
Collei will be a great addition to any Genshin Impact player’s roster as she’s able to dish out consistent damage even when off the battlefield. Like any other character, she’ll have four different talents under her belt:
Supplicant’s Bowmanship: Collei’s normal attack with her bow. Collei can fire four consecutive shots in succession and can also charge her attack to deal more damage by adding Dendro damage to her shots.
Floral Brush: Fires a Floral Ring to deal 1 instance of Dendro damage to all targets hit. The Floral Ring then returns, dealing damage to enemies caught in its path once more.
Trump-Card Kitty: Tosses a doll named Cuilein-Anbar towards an area. The doll then explodes in an AoE to deal Dendro DMG and creates a Cuilein-Anbar zone. Cuilein-Anbar then bounces around this zone, dealing damage to enemies caught in the AoE.
Passive – Gliding Champion of Sumeru: Reduces gliding stamina consumption for Collei and her teammates by 20 percent.
Genshin Impact Collei Release Date
If you’re looking to add Collei to your roster in Genshin Impact, you’ll have to wait till August 24, 2022. Collei will be available to grab alongside Tighnari and two other characters on a wish banner, with each character having a boosted drop rate. Players looking to know more about Collei can check out HoYolab’s blog post here.

Some other perks include the access to all the games in Xbox but apparently, a total of 10 games will be removed from this list from October 3. The reason for this removal has not been cited by the officials yet but it could be due to the expired license issue.

The tent is quite useful in Fortnite as it lets players heal automatically. Numerous players use tents to gain 5 HP per second by getting into it. Moreover, you can also store weapons inside a tent and use them later in the game. However, it is not easy to find a tent in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3.
Keep reading this article till the end and we ensure that you will get to know where you can find out a tent in Fortnite.
Where to find a tent in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3?
Unlike other items, you won’t be able to find out tents inside chests. Instead, tents become available as ground loot around the map. However, tents are very hard to find because they spawn around the map very rarely.
We have found a few spots on the map where tents spawn frequently. Take a look at the pointed areas on the map below:
Once you find out a tent, you can interact with it and move it inside your inventory. Later, you can use the tent anywhere on the map.
Have you found a tent yet? Or you don’t really use it? Let us know in the comment section below.
Speculations about the upcoming Indian Agent joining the current roster of Valorant Agents has been going around the internet for quite a while now. Valorant’s Agent 21, named Varun Batra, has been teased by Riot Games on multiple occasions in the past, but his identity still remains shrouded in mystery.
While details involving the next Valorant Agent haven’t been revealed by Riot as of yet, there have been a few leaks on the internet over the past few weeks that enable us to get an idea about what the Indian Valorant Agent will be like.
In a new email from Captain Greaves that can be found in the Valorant Range, we can see him addressing the newest Agent Fade by her real name while also revealing some details about Agent 21. It is the first time that players get to know Fade’s real name, Hazal Eyletmez.
“Operative Batra is no longer employed with REALM,” the email reads. “He is a fugitive under investigation for theft of a priceless artifact.”
Greaves also warns Fade to stop inquiring further on the subject and explain to her superiors that this is an internal matter.
In the past, we had seen a similar email involving Agent 21 hit the Valorant Range. In that email, Fade confirmed that the “Legion’s new power source” had the name Varun Batra.
“I ran a trace on his ALPHA counterpart. Turns out he’s a REALM operative.”
The exact release date of Valorant’s upcoming Agent Varun Batra hasn’t been revealed by Riot Games at the time of writing. There’s a slim chance that the new Agent might come out alongside the launch of Episode 5 Act 2 on August 24th, but don’t be surprised if Riot pushes the Agent’s launch to the Episode 5 Act 3 release instead.

Sc0ut, one of the biggest content creators from India who is a BGMI pro as well has won the Fan Favourite Award at the end of PMWI Afterparty event. He was pitched against some of the best players from around the world but the support from his fans was incredibly high as compared to others.

Sc0ut is not a part of 7Sea Esports but played from the team to represent India at the international level. Sc0ut owns a team called Team XSpark and is known to have a dominating roster competing in India.
The entire Indian gaming community is already familiar with the impact that Sc0ut brings by being on the team while playing at an international event. This same thing was seen at PMWI Afterparty as well when he came into clutch to win a match for his team.
Apart from his impressive mechanical prowess, his personality is loved by his fans. This made him a huge content creator in India and owing to the same popularity, Sc0ut has won this award at the global stage.
The process to nominate a player for fan favourite award was quite different this time as players commented on an official post and the one with highest number of likes won the trophy. The support for Sc0ut was insane as compared to other players as he received more than 170,000 likes on the post.
Sc0ut was awarded with a total prize of $10,000 for being voted to be the fan favourite. The entire Indian fanbase supported Sc0ut when he needed the most and as a result, India is back on the global roadmap with a small win after two years.

Format
The BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022 competition will consist of three stages: the first stage, the group stage, will be followed by the gauntlet stage, and the last stage will be the last chance stage.
During the round of the competition known as the group stage, the 12 teams will be split up into three different groups of four teams each. Every one of these competitions will use a structure known as double elimination, in which each match will consist of a single-game series.
The placement of the teams in the gauntlet stage will be determined by how well they did in the initial stage, however, all of the teams will advance to that stage. The bottom two teams in each group will play in the quarterfinals, the runners-up in the semifinals, and the top teams in the finals.
In this competition, the teams will compete in a bracket with single elimination, and each match will be played out as a best-of-three series. The top three teams qualify for BLAST Premier: Fall Finals 2022, while the lowest three advance to BLAST Premier: Fall Showdown 2022. The tournament’s championship round will consist of play between the top six remaining teams.
The remaining six teams will compete in a best-of-three series according to the rules of a traditional single-elimination bracket. The three teams that come out on top will move on to the Fall Finals, while the three teams that come out at the bottom will move on to the Fall Showdown.
