NiP reveal “Young Ninjas”, sign ztr

On 4th December 2020, Ninjas In Pyjamas revealed their plans regarding a new talent project for the up and coming players from Sweden’s professional Counter Strike : Global Offensive scene. Today they have launched it under the banner, “Young Ninjas”.

The Swedish organization has announced Erik “⁠ztr⁠” Gustafsson as the first member of their “Young Ninjas” project. The 17yo prodigy previously played under the banner of KPI, a Spanish team before bagging this opportunity. He also represented Prima eSports in the Elitserien cup and ESEA Advanced.

On this roster update, NiP’s COO Jonas Gundersen added,

There’s great talent out there and I am very excited to already have Erik on board to spearhead the project. A great guy with an incredible work ethic and mindset. Excited about seeing the team evolve and compete, as we continue to add the final pieces.

As mentioned above, it is believed that this project will foster a new generation of Swedish CS:GO players. They will be backed by Area Academy where the latter will assist them in scouting and recruiting the players for the same. On the basis of their statistics at the Swedish CS:GO tournament series Elitserien’, two to three players will stand a chance to join this project. NiP on their website have decided to bring in former Counter-Strike 1.6 professional Fredrik “JAEGARN” Andersson, Head of Education at Area Academy to carry on the proceedings for the Young Ninjas. 

Amidst of these updates, Mr Jonas Gunderson continued with,

The recent season of Elitserien really made waves. It truly warms my heart to see how far CS:GO has evolved in all the Nordic countries, especially within the grassroots, so it only makes sense to commit even more at this point. A guy like Fredrik has been around forever, and the work with Area Academy just makes for the perfect skill set to lead this project for us. The passion for youth development in him is great to feel.

KFC is now Selling a ‘Gaming Console’ Powered By Intel And Has A Built-In Chicken Warmer

0

Believe it or not, but KFC will soon launch a real working console conveniently named “KFCONSOLE” powered by Intel and will feature a built-in Chicken Warmer to warm those KFC Chicken Wings. 

The news comes straight from a leak by a member of Intel’s PR department, Mark Walton, who tweeted out the photo of the alleged KFC console. 

“Yes it’s real.  Yes, it’s powered by Intel. And yes, it has a chicken warmer. ? #KFConsole #IntelGaming.”

The console is fully designed and manufactured by Cooler Master. The console is housed in a custom Cooler Master NC100 chassis and looking at the design of the case, it looks awfully similar to Apple’s bin-shaped Mac Pro. At the heart of this machine is Intel’s Nuc 9 Extreme kit which comes packed with Intel i9 Cpu and a first-of-its-kind hot-swappable GPU slot. The console will come equipped with one PCIe NVMe Seagate BarraCuda 1TB SSD and another 2.5″ Seagate BarraCuda 1TB SSD.

Following the reveal tweet, Walton also tweeted out a link to the official reveal by CoolerMaster which claims  

“The KFConsole has arrived. Forged from the fires of the KFC ovens and built by Cooler Master from the ground up, there has never been a tastier way to experience the latest titles in stunning 4k, 240fps.”

The website is filled with more information about the console and further makes some bold statements. The site also has a dedicated section on how will the world’s “first built-in chicken chamber” work. 

“Never risk letting your chicken go cold again thanks to the patented Chicken Chamber,” it says. “Utilising the system’s natural heat and airflow system you can now focus on your gameplay and enjoy hot, crispy chicken between rounds.” 

Well, for once it looks like Intel’s “hot” i9 chip might be useful for other purposes also and can be used for cooking food like AMD’s old FX CPUs that were famous for running so hot that one can make egg-omelet using it.

The “KFCONSOLE” sure sounds powerful and the ability to hot-swap a GPU to next-gen is actually the best selling point in my opinion. But with the small factor design constraints, it truly depends on engineers at CoolerMaster to work their magic and cool this thing down and not sound like a jet plane.

Pokimane is buying her fans presents for Christmas

0

Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys has been a part of many controversies and was under fire at multiple points in 2020 but she looks to end the year on a high note as she buys her fans gift from their Amazon wishlist for Chirstmas.

Pokimane in her last tweet asked fans to drop the link to their Amazon wishlist which she would grant them for Christmas. She understands that 2020 has been harsh on many people that forced them to skip on their wishes. Anys believes that this move of her will cheer some fans heading into 2021.

Pokimane in her alt account claimed to have granted couches, notebooks for schools, clothes for newborns but won’t grant any wishes for private toys. She asked her fans to take all her money away before calling them, kind souls. She will likely be screening through the links to look for people with a genuine need.

Head over to the tweet and drop the link to your wishlist, on the off chance that your link gets noticed by her and she thinks your need to be genuine, she might actually go the distance to grant your wish. Make to have the third party shipping turned on or she won’t be able to grant your wish even if she wants to.

Tayhuhu unbanned on Twitch after community outrage

0

After the community blasted Twitch over banning Tayhuhu over an honest mistake, she has been unbanned from Twitch allowing her to continue streaming once again.

Tayhuhu left her stream and went to attend a grocery delivery when her daughter took the opportunity to make her way to the set and interact with the chat, which is prohibited according to the Twitch community guidelines. Given the nature of the mistake, the community came together and supported her against Twitch’s decision.

After countless appeals from fans and notable esports personalities, Twitch has rescinded the ban on her channel. With the likes of FalleN supporting Tayhuhu, it was bound to get Twitch’s attention.

Now that Tayhuhu is unbanned, Twitch will likely take a better look at the situation before handing bans. This is a prime example of how the community might react if a ban is handed out wrongly. Twitch is yet to publish a statement on this matter which they usually don’t in given scenarios.

Why did Tayhuhu get banned from Twitch?

0

Professional Valorant player Taynah “Tayhuhu” Yukimi was banned on Twitch for an indefinite period for reasons that sparked outrage in the community, asking Twitch to revoke the ban.

Tayhuhu rose to fame last year, as her channel grew with Valorant, making it the face of her content. Besides streaming, she is a professional Valorant player for the Brazilian esports organization INTZ in the women-only league.

The rising popularity of Valorant helped skyrocket her channel that averages 300 concurrent viewers. Her responsibilities extended further as other than being a pro player, she is a mom to a 3-year-old daughter.

She left her 22nd December stream unattended to answer the delivery person at the door during which her daughter made her way to the setup and interacted with the chat, violating the streaming regulations of Twitch that disallow anyone below 13 to stream on their platform.

The community realizes that being a mother is hard and the incident was an honest mistake on Tayhuhu’s part. Everyone hopes Twitch to be forgiving and revoke the ban on her channel, letting her stream once again as a ban was too harsh of a punishment for a mistake that nominal.

Tayhuhu banned

This begs the question that if Twitch would consider Tayhuhu’s case and rescind her punishment. Twitch is surrounded by multiple controversies most of which are regarding how they handle bans. Revoking Tayhuhu’s ban would set an example that the Amazon owned streaming platform are looking to mend their ways.

What is Free Fire New Event Xmas Day Celebration?

0

Free Fire is the popular battle-royale title that has been a global phenomenon in the past few years including India where PUBG Mobile is banned by the government. Not only that but Free Fire has also collaborated with a lot of superstars and Cristiano Ronaldo is one of them. Free Fire players are going to have a new event named Xmas Day Celebration.

There are a lot of rewards that the players are going to get during this event. Free Fire players have to complete a few missions between 25th and 26th December to redeem the rewards.

How to get Free Fire Xmas Day Celebration Rewards

  • If you play Squad Mode 3 times, you will get the Winterland Weapon loot crates 3 times.
  • Want to get the Winterland Pan Skin? Get Booyah for a single time in the BR Mode.
  • You will get 10 Weapon Royale vouchers if you get Booyah 3 times in the BR Mode.

BR Meaning In Free Fire

The BR mode stands for ‘Battle-Royale‘ mode and as the game is entirely made from that genre, the integral part of Free Fire is dependent upon this mode. This mode is often mentioned in the in-game events where players need to complete certain tasks to gain rewards.

Many get confused on what exactly does this mode stands for but it has a far simpler meaning than what is conceived by the masses. Whenever Free Fire mentions that some events are to be completed in the BR mode, it refers to the classic mode of this game.

The ranked mode also comes under the BR section but it is not ideal to use this section for completing some events as there is always a risk factor involved where a player might lose their hard earnt rank points in the process.

The BR mode hence can be classified into Classic and Ranked mode and the only other mode available in Free Fire is Clash Squad mode. his is an entirely different mode and cannot be counted under BR as it has its own set of events, ranked seasons, and other things.

These are all the details about BR mode present in Free Fire. If you ever get confused on what it means, simply remember that the game belongs to battle-royale genre and hence the core modes which you regularly play directly falls under the BR category.
