Apex Legends: Caustic Getting Buffed

The Apex Legends developers are finally buffing Caustic in order to make it “terrifying” again. The last few months saw a bundle of gas nerfs that took away his close-range power. 

The battle royale’s Season 9 meta saw Caustic not being included in it because of his repetitive nerfs in the last few months. The developers of the game are now thinking of giving the character some buffs which will eventually lead to players picking him again.

Respawn has said that due to the recent updates around this agent, the pick rate has been dropped severely and it has also affected a lot of the players. 

Although one of the lead designers, Daniel Z. Klein spoke about how the agent is going to get buffed and what the developers are actually thinking in a Reddit thread. 

The designer also said that he wants to buff the character so that the players will be terrified of his gas again. All the Caustic mains are really happy to hear this news and will be waiting for the upcoming patches to go live. 

Respawn confirmed that all the sights for buffs and nerfs will be coming out in the next few Apex Legends patches.

CSGO Rank Distribution 2021

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is undoubtedly one of the best competitive shooters in the world right now. With a total of eighteen ranks to climb, CSGO players are constantly looking for room to improve in the title till they reach the prestigious rank of Global Elite, which is the peak rank in CSGO.

However, ranking up in CSGO can be quite difficult. It turns out that most of the CSGO player base are in fact, quite far away from Global Elite and more towards the middle of the competitive spectrum.

Do you want to know how well you fare against other members of the community? Don’t worry, we have you covered.

A recent study by Leetify has revealed the CSGO rank distribution in 2021, and the results might shock you.

As it turns out, the rank of Gold Nova Master holds the highest number of CSGO players among all the ranks with a total of 8.65% of the player base. Gold Nova 3 is also not far behind, boasting about 8.60% of the total CSGO players.

Unsurprisingly though, Global Elite holds the least percentage of the CSGO player base, with only 1.04% players having what it takes to reach there.

Amouranth will presumably lose $500,000 after Twitch Demonetized her channel

0

When Twitch said they were “closely monitoring” the “hot tub” meta, no one expected their verdict to come unannounced, least of all in this fashion. Arguably, the biggest hot tub streamer Amouranth, had her channel demonetized that left others in a bit of turmoil.

Twitch never confirmed that the demonetization was a penalty for her suggestive content but it’s not too difficult to assume. They were in hot water ever since people started abusing the ToS to turn hot tub stream into something of a meta. The Amazon-owned streaming platform claimed that they were closing monitoring the situation and it is not until now that concrete action has been taken against any of the streamers.

For someone of Amouranth’s stature, ad revenue racks up to a large amount, losing which may be significantly damaging. Suspending advertisements on her channel will close a big income avenue for her that Twitch assumed will probably demotivate other streamers into following the “hot tub” meta.

Amouranth reddit comment
Via Reddit

According to Amouranth herself, ads on her channel generate somewhere between 35K-40K, which adds up to near about half a million dollars a year. $500,000 will be a big dent in anyone’s income, especially for a full-time Twitch streamer.

Demonetization certainly spells trouble for her despite having other sources of income including donations, bits, subscriptions, sponsorships, and most importantly OnlyFans. The fact that she is well off without the ad revenue is nothing too absurd and certainly something that she can live with.
