Zedd’s love for video games isn’t something that his fans don’t know about. The 32-year-old is an avid Valorant enthusiast and has previously shared his proud achievement of reaching Immortal rank in the competitive shooter in a Tweet

The Immortal rank in Valorant lies just under the rank of Radiant, which is the highest rank attainable in the tactical shooter.

Each skin in the bundle contains four levels:

  • Level 1 – Custom model with ADS reticle that changes colour as the player moves

The Most Expensive CSGO Skins in 2021

CSGO, one of the most successful FPS titles out there, is known for its aesthetic marketplace along with an insane set of FPS mechanics. Since Valve revamped the game with weapon sprays now known as “Skins”, we witnessed a turn of events after the Arms Deals update was pushed into the game.

These weapon skins caught everyone’s sight as players did find them to be visually appealing, provided with the fact that these skins won’t add any extra muscle power to your weapon.

After the community market was set up for CSGO, players did find themselves grabbing up some skins from the market or trade/sell their owned design patterns to go for some other kinds. As such, people wanted more from the game, and that’s how skins in CSGO became a thing.

A lot of people care about the cosmetic elements in CSGO, known as skins. They don’t influence the gameplay, but just make particular goods look more beautiful.

Skins and CSGO go hand in hand. They hold financial importance other than the cosmetic value that has given rise to a healthy trading network with its own set of benchmarks to set the price. The price of the skins is correlated with the wear rating thus it is something everyone should know of while trading.

These cosmetics come with a float value when unboxed. Once opened, you have no control over the value as it is predetermined by what the game decides by assigning it a float value between 0.0 to 1.0. The lower float value translates to a higher selling price and vice-versa. The lower float skins have fewer scratches and negligible dark patches and sometimes none altogether. Some skins get shinier with a lower float value, they don’t have any scratches for any float whatsoever, but such skins with high FV will look shady and less shiny than their low FV counterpart.

This article would further update you with the most expensive skins available in the community.

#387 Karambit | Case Hardened Blue Gem

According to reports, this magnificent Karambit belongs to a YouTuber based in China. It is believed that this was the most expensive trade back in 2016 ever in the history of CSGO, worth $150,000 USD. Based on the current market price and the whole cryptocurrency spike, this may fetch its Chinese owner over $600,000 USD.

StatTrak Ak-47 | Case Hardened Blue Gem with 4x Titan Holos


This is also deemed the most Expensive CSGO Skin Ever Sold in the History of CSGO and is the AK-47 Case Hardened with the StatTrak™ Technology. Bearing 4 ‘Titan | Katowice 2014’ stickers on the skin with a Minimal Wear finish, the weapon was bought at a flabbergasting price of $150,000USD on Steam. That is some serious cash right there, and likely a good investment since there is no other version of it that is exactly like this one. The AK-47 Case Hardened skin was added to counter-strike as a part of the first-ever weapon case and was too a part of the Arms Deal Collection. The skin had an interesting pattern design that had a blue hue on it. It became obvious that most players really liked the blue glow emitted by the gun in the process and might likely just increase in value.


Peter ‘dupreeh’ Rasmussen was spotted using this skin in the IEM Katowice 2021 Qualifiers against Virtus.Pro.

Souvenir AWP | Dragon Lore FN with 4x Titan Holos

Lord Belle’s Souvenir AWP Dragon Lore with the 4 Katowice 2014 Titan Holos is just another masterpiece crafted till now. The stickers alone cost a bomb and add up to $40,000 USD to the total price. This skin currently sits at the top of all sniper rifles with a price tag of $250,000 USD.

StatTrack M4A4 | Howl with 4x Titan Katowice 2014 Holos

After the infamous M4A4 Howl skin incident, where it was claimed to be a stolen community workshop artwork, the former was made unavailable even by unboxing your cases. This resulted in a terrible upward spike in the skin’s pricing. With the current crypto-currency market hitting new heights every day, it has indeed added more misery to its Value.

With 4 Titan Katowice 2014 Holos crafted, this Stattrak M4A4 Howl is now up for grabs with a whopping price tag of $180,000 USD. The owner of the same would be totally on a Cloud 9 after Valve decided to withdraw the CSGO Key trading which made this skin tougher to lay hands on.

StatTrack Ak-47 | Fire Serpent with 4x iBuyPower Holos

After the StatTrak Ak-47 | Case Hardened Blue Gem with 4x Titan Holos, comes the AK-47 Fire Serpent with the 4 iBuyPower Holos. Ever since iBP disbanded over the match-fixing incident, their sticker prices have skyrocketed to almost unforgivable listings. Ever imagined that someone would craft them on a StatTrak AK Fire Serpent? Well yes, a person did, and here is it.

According to me, these stickers itself can fetch a hefty sum given the weapon itself would cost you to go all in.

Valorant weapons and their ammo capacity

0

It’s been almost a year since Valorant evolved from the beta phase and since then the game has attracted unreal hype, luring a plethora of professional players.

Although the game has unique abilities similar to Overwatch, it leans more towards the theme than that of CSGO. Just like the latter, players do stand a chance to select from a range of weapons to play with. Compared to CSGO, load-outs bear no difference. Just like the former, Valorant got a wide pallet of choices, right from pistols to snipers. upon, be it the attacking or defensive side, unlike CSGO where the AK-47 and M4A4 are exclusively available to the Ts and CTs respectively.

While in combat, keeping tabs on the number of bullets in your weapon alongside other aspects is yet another responsibility. While there are some who would always reload their weapon upon shooting a single bullet, most of them would also spray down an entire magazine spamming a wall in a bid to knock out the player hiding behind. Well, none to blame for either, maybe that’s how they feel to play? Ammunition management is always an integral part be it any First-person shooter title.

GodLike Esports parts ways with Valorant Roster

0

GodLike Esports has released their entire Valorant roster for unstated reasons. In an official post, the organization revealed that they are parting ways with its PC division including stars like Antidote and Deathmaker. This parting is a result of “unfortunate events” which preceded before the actual departure.

Valorant emerged as the next popular esports title in India and many old CS:GO stars tried their luck at this new title of Riot Games. Many pros made a switch from the former to Valorant and looking at this booming industry, many new organizations invested and hired new rosters.

GodLike Esports also ventured into PC gaming after running a successful roster in mobile gaming division. Their PUBG Mobile roster produced promising results and they looking to achieve a similar result in Valorant as well. GodLike signed some well-known players to their roster and their future was looking promising.

Even though the roster failed to perform on a regional scale, as compared to other organizations like Velocity Gaming or Global Esports, but their results were consistent and they were still considered as one of the best teams in India. The roster had some of the best players in Valorant onboard but due to some inner matters, the organization decided to drop their roster.

In the official post, they stated that this move was taken due to some unfortunate events and even though the roster is disbanded, the organization has decided to keep Haivaan as their content creator. The rest of GodLike players are now free agents and we might see some big organizations making a move to hire these stars in the near future.

Deathmaker was reported to shift to Velocity Gaming and as he does not represent any team now, we might see some moves very soon. Antidote was a part of Velocity in the past and it will be interesting to see which roster picks him up next.

GodLike Esports will be focusing on mobile esports for a while and they have recently picked one of the best rosters in India with players from old TSM India team. The organization has even prompted their fans that they will return to competitive PC esports in the future, citing that their return might be by this fall or next year.

Coldzera to join Complexity CSGO: Report

0

According to a report by French website 1pv.fr and then another one by Dexerto, Marcelo ‘coldzera’ David is all set to join Complexity Gaming after being out of contract since June 2021. He last played for FaZe Clan, and with the departure of his friend ‘NiKo’ to G2, he had all the more reason to not continue with the roster.

As already reported, Kristian “k0nfig” Wienecke, is injured after breaking his wrist at the airport earlier in August. The Dane had to be in a cast for 4-6 weeks and is eager to get back into action, but with events lined up, as well as the Major, Complexity can’t keep making do with a stand-in as k0nfig’s recovery could take even longer, thus they have decided to sign 2 time major winner with 2 major MVPs under his belt.

He said on a Brazilian podcast, that his new team has already been decided and that it would be announced within a week. The team would not be FURIA as earlier rumoured, as FURIA investor Andre Akkari tweeted that “things didn’t work out” talking about the negotiations between the org and the player. Which leaves Complexity as the only logical option for him, where he’ll be the second Brazilian to join the team after “peacemaker”.

He is rumoured to play for the roster as soon as ESL Pro League playoffs end, and BLAST Premier Fall Groups start. The CoL roster for BLAST will be:

Free Fire announces “Less is More” event

0

Free Fire announced another new event today which provides a huge lucrative discount on diamonds.

The event called “Less is More” allows the players to avail discounts based on the number of diamonds the players currently own. Remember diamonds are an essential source for your experience inside the Free fire world, so a 500 diamond chest would never hurt.

Diamonds

They are the in-game currency of free fire enabling you to buy gun skins right till your character cosmetics and other in-game elements. However, in order to acquire these diamonds real money has to be spent and free fire usually aims to provide discounts on bulk purchasing of diamonds.

Less is More event

The event is being held for the second time within the second quarter of this year is between the 9th of September till the 14th  where players can get discounts on the purchase of the 520 diamonds chest and the lesser the amount you already have, the greater the discount.

The whole idea is to incentivize their events and current in-game purchases and if you have been planning to purchase diamonds, there has been no better time. In fact, there is a 60 percent discount on the 520 diamonds bundle right now.

  • 0-49 remaining diamonds: Rs 160
  • 50-149 remaining diamonds: Rs 250
  • 150-299 remaining diamonds: Rs 300
  • More than 299 remaining diamonds: Rs 400

Free Fire 0B30 update September 2021: All you need to know

0

The last OB29 update of Garena: Free Fire was released on August 4th, 2021. This update brought in new characters like Thiva and Dimitri and the new favorite pet Sensei Tig.

Also the weapon AC80 was introduced. Similarly, the OB30 update will have some very interesting additions to the game as well. Here we will share some of the leaks available about the Free Fire OB30 update.

Free Fire OB30 update release date

The OB30 update aka the September 2021 update is expected to be released in the final week of September with no announcements made lately by the developers.

Free Fire OB30 New additions

New Character Dropped: Snowelle

Snowelle is a Lab researcher specialized in nanotechnology and robotics. Snowelle would be one of the female characters in the game and who was first introduced in the Advanced Server released before the OB25 update but didn’t make it into the game. Hopefully, this time is going to be it for her!

Similar to other characters of the game, she also comes with a special skill. Her special ability is a passive skill called ‘Nano Nerves’. Her special skill prevents opponents from using their active skills and stops them from converting EP into HP. The effect remains on the enemies for a short period of time and applies to only those who get a shot from the character.

  • Nano Nerves Level 1: Within 5s of being hit by Snowelle, enemies are unable to use active skills, unable to convert EP into HP. CD 45s.
  • Nano Nerves Level 2: Within 5s of being hit by Snowelle, enemies are unable to use active skills, unable to convert EP into HP. CD 42s.
  • Nano Nerves Level 3: Within 5s of being hit by Snowelle, enemies are unable to use active skills, unable to convert EP into HP. CD 39s.
  • Nano Nerves Level 4: Within 5s of being hit by Snowelle, enemies are unable to use active skills, unable to convert EP into HP. CD 36s.
  • Nano Nerves Level 5: Within 5s of being hit by Snowelle, enemies are unable to use active skills, unable to convert EP into HP. CD 33s.
  • Nano Nerves Level 6: Within 5s of being hit by Snowelle, enemies are unable to use active skills, unable to convert EP into HP. CD 30s.

New Character Dropped:  Sverr

Sverr is a top-tier MMA fighter to be introduced in the OB30 update. The character was first spotted in one of the video trailers released by Garena for Free Fire. Later it was made available as a playable character in the Advanced Server released before the OB24 update. But as he didn’t make it into the game, the OB30 update is the time for him to come out!

Sverrhas an Active Skill called ‘Going Berserk.’ This increases the damage buff on his enemies as his HP reduces. At level 1, it consumes 40HP to increase damage by 10%, and the number increases as you level up the character.

New Weapon: G18 – Akimbo

After Vector Akimbo’s introduction with the OB25 update, in the OB30 update, we might get to see the all-new G18 Akimbo. Akimbo imitates the Dual Berettas style where you can fire simultaneously two guns at enemies.

Garena has given the hint of G18 Akmibo in its recently released video trailer related to Free Fire. In this trailer, Kelly can be seen firing two G18 pistols simultaneously at an enemy. As we all know, it is not something new that Garena showed the new feature in trailers.

New Mechanism: Firing from Vehicle

Similar to other battle royale-based games, squad fights are going to get even more exciting as one of the most anticipated fighting mechanics is going to be introduced into the game.

This speculation is also based on the trailer released for the update.

New Vehicle: Scooter

In one of the recent trailers, Shirou from the Free Fire world can be seen riding a Scooter. It is expected to be introduced as a new vehicle in Free Fire with the OB30 update.

New Pistol: MK 40

The Wichita MK-40 a highly specialized pistol is known more specifically as a Silhouette pistol. The gun was primarily designed to be used in competitions organized under the rules of the International Handgun Metallic Silhouette Association. Briefly, these involve shooting high-velocity ammunition against life-like animal silhouettes at long ranges making it a deadly weapon when fitted with the apt sights and a good player.

The first kidnapper was nabbed on the 23rd of August and another was under question for providing shelter to the kidnappers apart from also giving them details about FOOXI as well. The event took a toll on the players mental health which he commented on saying :

Worst day of my life yesterday, I’ll be off for a few days and I’ll tell you what happened. I was kidnapped yesterday along with my girlfriend and her mother. We get the money back, but what about the psychological (loss) and the safety of walking around?

Regardless he is back home safely and all the stolen valuables have been recovered, however, he has been asked to be safe as the third person involved in the incident is still at loose but has been identified.
