Only Immortal+ Players Above 16 Can Participate In Official Valorant Tournaments

Only a few weeks ahead of the Valorant First Strike tournament, Riot has revealed the official ruleset of their competitive policies for Valorant esports.

The First Strike major has been confirmed to take place from December 3-6. It’ll be the first Valorant tournament to be officially organized by Riot, and will follow a strict set of rules which players must follow in order to participate in the tournament.

For starters, players need to be over 16 years of age to be eligible to play in the Valorant esports scene. The minimum rank has also been restricted to Immortal 1+, which means even if you are Diamond 3 you won’t be able to enter the pro scene till you raise your ranks. Another interesting rule is that for each team, at least three out of five players have to be from the same region.

Riot Games also seem to have taken strict measures in maintaining the competitive integrity of their esports scene. Suspicious players will be manually checked by their anti-cheat team instead of solely relying on Vanguard. “To further supplement our competitive policies and ensure fair play, we’ve built a strong partnership with the VALORANT anti-cheat team,” the blog said. “Along with our tournament partners, the anti-cheat team helps us review instances of suspicious behavior during competitive events.“

Tyler1 joins T1

South Korean Esports team T1 has signed popular League of Legends streamer Tyler “tyler1” Steinkamp, as announced on their social media handles.

Signed as a content creator, Tyler1 will host the T1 banner on his streams and will be their ambassador for future LoL events. One of the most popular personalities in the LoL scene, Tyler1 has over 3.4 million followers on Twitch.

The 25-year-old holds the notorious reputation for being extremely toxic for griefing and being disrespectful, which earned him the nickname of “The most Toxic player in NA,” which led him to be banned for almost 2 years between 2016 and 2018.

On his return, however, his first stream broke the record for the most concurrent viewers on Twitch by peaking at 382,000. Steinkamp has also held a parody LoL tournament in 2017 called Tyler Championship Series (TCS) which drew more than 200,000 concurrent viewers, with the winning team getting $10,000 funded by Tyler himself.

How to play Among Us with 100 players?

Among Us is one of the biggest hits in the world of online video games and has managed to attain over 100 million downloads across platforms. The game of stealth, mystery, and deception was originally released two years ago, but failed to gain any traction till a few months back when some popular YouTubers and streamers started playing it.

The original version of Among Us features up to ten players in a spaceship divided into two groups – crewmates and impostors, the latter being the minority.

The crewmates have to use their wits and observational skills to deduce who the impostors are, while the impostors have to eliminate all the crewmates while using their communication skills to convince others that they’re innocent.

However, some YouTubers went ahead and broadened the player limit of Among Us by a huge margin, and shared the end results on their channels. This new mod of Among Us features 100 players, 10 of whom are impostors. Needless to say, the mod usually ends up chaotic due to the huge player count, but appears to be extremely fun to play.

YouTuber ‘socksfor1’ shared the gameplay of this new Among Us mod of 100 players, which you can take a look at here.

In case you’re interested in playing the mod yourself (and assuming you have 99 other people to play with), you can check out the YouTuber’s discord for a link to the mod.

The PlayStation 5 console and accessories will only be available via authorised retailers namely Amazon, Flipkart, Reliance Digital, Games The Shop, ShopAtSc.com, and Tata Croma. Also, Sony has no plans to offer Pre-orders in India.

While the pricing details were revealed today, Sony India didn’t reveal the launch date yet. As for why the launch date isn’t set Sony said:

“We know that gamers in India are excited to get their hands on PS5. Availability in each country is subject to, amongst other things, local import regulations, and our local teams are working through the logistics. We will share an update on a launch date for India as more information becomes available”

Previously, Sony was having a hard time to advertise and sell their PS5 consoles as a fellow guy from Delhi had registered PS5 branding under his name 3 months before Sony India filed for the trademark. This led to a conflict of interest and Sony had to delay their plans further. It is still unknown if the trademark issue is resolved or not. So we might have to wait further for the launch date reveal.

We are pleased to announce the PS5 prices in India!

Valorant error code val 51 – How to fix it?

Valorant is very well received by the gaming community right from its announced and closed beta testing. The game enjoyed fame in its very early stages and the developers quickly launched its global versions after a few months of testing. For a game that is newly built from scratch, there are bound to be some corners left unchecked.

Players frequently face error code VAL 51 – “There seems to be an issue with the Party system. Go ahead and restart the Riot Client. Error Code: 51.” They are quite common, though, there’s no conclusive solution from your end. At times, running the game as administrator or restarting the client might fix error 51 temporarily. The errors generally occur when Riot Games is shipping an update or the game servers are undergoing maintenance.

Such small corners can become a big upset for the players. Riot games are actually very active in maintaining their servers but still, some issues slip by. Code 51 error is a similar problem that must be occurring due to some small issues in the game.

There is no need to panic or reinstall the game. The error usually gets fixed in a while. Until then, you may wish to play any other game. Keep an eye on Twitter or Reddit to check out whether the servers are live or otherwise. Eventually, Valorant’s website has a support section with high-priority notifications atop.
