GodLike Esports Secures First BGMI Official Tournament Qualification with BMPS 2024 Grand Finals Spot

0

GodLike Esports has made history by securing their first-ever qualification for a BGMI official tournament with a spot in the Battlegrounds Mobile India Pro Series 2024 (BMPS 2024) Grand Finals. The team’s impressive performance in the Semi Finals has not only showcased their skill but also their consistency. Notably, this qualification follows a string of upsetting performances by the team where it failed to qualify for several official and unofficial events.

GodLike Esports Paves Its Way to BMPS 2024 Grand Finals

GodLike Esports demonstrated a commanding presence throughout the Semi-Finals, amassing a total of 95 points across 16 matches. The team cemented their position in the Grand Finals with the Winner Winner Chicken Dinner (WWCD) in their last match. However, the team has shown consistency throughout the tournament so far.

The path to the Grand Finals was not easy, as several prominent teams fell short of the mark. Teams like Gujarat Tigers, Carnival Gaming, iQOO SouL, WSB Gaming, and Global Esports did not even make it to the Semi Finals. Moreover, while Krafton India Esports hasn’t announced it yet, it appears that teams such as CARPE DIEM, Blind Esports, Gods Reign, and MOGO Esports have also been eliminated from the Semi-Finals. 

GodLike Esports’ qualification for the BMPS 2024 Grand Finals comes as a significant redemption after a series of disappointing performances in both official and unofficial events. Previously, the team had struggled to make it past early stages, leading to a wave of criticism from opponents and their fan bases. Despite being a fan favorite, these setbacks had marred their reputation and fueled backlash. However, their recent success in securing a spot in the Grand Finals has not only silenced some of the critics but also reignited hope among their loyal supporters, proving that they can still rise to the occasion and compete at the highest level.

How to Find the NaNa Village in Lego Fortnite?

0

In LEGO Fortnite, you will find adventure at full scale including dinosaurs, pirates, and lots of hidden treasures. It is NaNa Village, which hides its treasures and surprises. Let’s find out the NaNa village in this article.

Unlike other features of Lost Isles, NaNa Village is also known as NaN’er Hamlet and can be viewed spawned at any random location for every world seed. This means that its place need not always be set at the same spot for every game; therefore, the probabilities could even be a wee bit harder to think about its location. But once you get a glimpse of it, you know you’ve struck the jackpot because, unlike other features in Lost Isles, the village itself doesn’t change.

NaNa Village can appear in any of Lost Isles‘ biomes. You might find it furtively hidden behind a dense jungle, overlooking a virgin beach, or even on a grassy plain. Be on the lookout for a sort of marked village square and a small, colorful character known as Bananthony.

Lost Isles is an enormous map so be prepared to do a bit of exploration. Search every area and watch out for your surroundings.

If you can’t seem to track down NaNa Village, try using a custom world seed. This way, the village will certainly spawn in a given spot, so finding it may prove easier.

All throughout the game, keep an eye out for other points of interest aside from the other landmarks and features. Maybe NaNa Village is located somewhere near a particular species of dinosaur or place of interest.

Once found, you unlock a series of challenges and rewards upon finding NaNa Village. These challenges can be so fun and rewarding and tend to lead pretty decent loot and collectibles.

Fortnite: All Stark Chest Locations Revealed

0

Tony Stark has brought the Iron Man armor to the battlefields of Fortnite. He has situated some Stark Mobile Armories across the island and has called in all the Marvel heroes to join against Doctor Doom. The armories have limitless stores of robust weapons and many other items that would greatly aid players in winning the battle.

There are six Stark Mobile Armories distributed throughout the Fortnite map. Typically, these armories can be located in commercial areas and other high-traffic locations. The specific location will give you a chance for some early valuable loot collection.

Stark Chest Locations in Fortnite

Here’s the exact location of all the Stark Mobile Armories:

  • The Other Windmill: to the west of Grim Gate.
  • South of Doom’s Courtyard: Near Latverian Station.
  • Coastal Columns: to the east of the Raft.
  • South of Reckless Railways: Close to Dumpenhausen.
  • North of Redline Rig: Near Pantheon Path.
  • North of Nitrodrome: Northern part of the map.

Iron Man has also installed six landing pads around the island, in addition to the Stark Mobile Armories. The landing pads will carry a temporary Iron Man Armory or a War Machine Armory, but whatever is used at each pad is always random from match to match. But whatever is installed for the landing pads themselves doesn’t vary from one match to another.

Stark Mobile Armories and landing pads have pretty strong advantages to anyone who gets them early in the game, though they are also very contested hot spots, so expect a lot of fighting.

Beef Served to Revenant Esports Despite Clear Instructions to Riot Games’ VCT Management

Revenant Esports, fresh off their victory at the VALORANT Challengers 2024: South Asia Split 2 and qualification for VCT Ascension Pacific 2024, found themselves embroiled in controversy at the tournament in Jakarta, Indonesia. Despite clear instructions to Riot Games’ VCT management regarding the dietary restrictions of their players, members of the Indian team were mistakenly served beef—a serious cultural violation for the Hindu players on the team. This incident sparked public outcry after star player SkRossi tweeted about it, though he later deleted the post.

Revenant Esports’ Players Express Trauma Over Beef Incident at Riot Games’ VCT Ascension Pacific 2024

Revenant Esports team, composed of six members, issued strict guidelines to the Riot Games’ VCT event organizers regarding their dietary needs, particularly that at least three members do not consume beef due to religious reasons and one due to personal preference. The team’s Hindu players—SkRossi, Skillz, and Tricky—hold cows in reverence, a sentiment deeply rooted in their faith. On the other hand, Paradox also mentioned that he does not consume beef. Despite being assured that chicken would be served, beef was mistakenly presented to the team, which they consumed unknowingly. 

SkRossi initially took to Twitter to voice his frustration, revealing the distress and trauma the team experienced. In his now-deleted tweet, he shared how the situation was deeply traumatic for him after consuming beef unknowingly.

Tricky, another team member, echoed similar sentiments in his tweet. He stated that the organizers assured the players that they will serve chicken.

The breach in dietary preference struck a chord not only with the team but also with fans.

Notably, in India, where Revenant Esports is based, cow slaughter and beef consumption are culturally and religiously sensitive issues, especially for Hindus, who consider the cow a sacred symbol.

As of now, Riot Games has not issued any official response regarding the incident involving Revenant Esports at VCT Ascension Pacific 2024. Despite the controversy gaining significant attention on social media, where players like SkRossi voiced their distress, Riot Games has remained silent on the matter so far.

If you manage to track one down while exploring the new biomes, you can tame it and use its powers to explore places that are difficult to access.

On the off chance that you really come across a Klombo, taming is necessary. Taming it will allow you to use it and the way to do it is to feel the dragon some Klomberry which has been introduced with the latest update. Giving one berry to a Klombo should do the trick but make sure you keep feeding it berries after certain intervals otherwise the taming effect might go away and you will end up losing it.

Unlike the Klombo, the Klomberries are found in abundance near the bushes around the new biomes, make sure to pick them in good quantities so you have some to spare when you come across a Klombo.

Having a Klombo in your arsenal can grant you a ton of benefits and something like that deserves an article of its own. To put it briefly, Klombos can help you move around the map faster, collect items spread across the map and finally it can launch you to high areas around the map.

TenZ Reveals Future Plans After Retirement From Valorant Esports

0

A few days after announcing his retirement from the world of competitive Valorant, Tyson “TenZ” Ngo has revealed what he plans to do in the future now that he has plenty of free time on his hands.

For the uninitiated, TenZ announced his departure from Valorant esports through a video posted on his YouTube handle on September 17th. In his video, he explained that he had already decided to quit professional Valorant earlier this year. Additionally, prior to Champions 2024, the 23-year-old had already informed his teammates that this would be his final year competing.

During a recent livestream on Twitch, TenZ proceeded to disclose his plans for the future while also answering any questions his viewers had regarding his retirement.

Throughout his livestream, TenZ explained that he will be focusing primarily on content creation moving forward. He further added that he will be looking to produce new forms of content including travel vlogs, variety streams, and more.

“I wanted to make a lot more exciting content, I also wanted to travel. I wanted to vlog a lot more, and it’s very hard to do that as a pro player,” TenZ said. “It’s also very hard to attend certain creator events. I want to start going to a lot of the gaming conventions, and I’m going to TwitchCon coming up very soon.”

Fortunately, TenZ has no plans to stop playing Valorant anytime soon. In fact, he has mentioned that most of his upcoming streams will feature the Riot Games shooter, along with a mix of other content.

Sacy Announces Retirement From Competitive Valorant

Brazilian Valorant legend Gustavo “Sacy” Rossi has announced his retirement from competitive Valorant.

This decision follows closely on the heels of fellow Sentinels star Tyson “TenZ” Ngo, who also revealed his departure from the professional scene just a day prior.

This marks the end of an era for Sentinels, as they lose two of their biggest talents in quick succession.

Sentinels paid tribute to Sacy by releasing a heartfelt video celebrating his storied career in Valorant. The tribute revisits the team’s journey throughout the 2024 season, spotlighting their highlights and unforgettable moments. The video concludes with a personal message from Sacy himself.

Before joining Sentinels, Sacy had been a part of several top-tier Brazilian Valorant organizations, including RED Canids, Team Vikings, and LOUD. His time with LOUD proved to be particularly successful, as he led the team to victory at the 2022 Valorant Champions, cementing his status as one of the greatest Initiators of all time.

Sentinels has yet to disclose who will replace TenZ and Sacy for the upcoming VCT season.

TACO Hints at Return to Competitive Counter Strike

Brazilian Counter-Strike legend Epitacio “⁠TACO⁠” de Melo has confirmed that he is making a comeback to professional Counter-Strike once again having competed for lesser-known Brazilian sides earlier this year.

TACO is one of the most iconic players to come out of Brazil. The best years of Brazilian CS can be attributed to the legendary SK Gaming and Luminosity roster that won ESL One Cologne and MLG Columbus back in the day. TACO was a gel that glued together the Brazilian side but the end of the CSGO era saw TACO fall out of flavor as the entire Brazilian CS scene went downhill which hasn’t recovered after more than a year into CS2.

Being a region that once produced some of the best talents, there is hardly anyone from Brazil in the top teams. Good performances from Brazilian sides are few and far between and TACO is not afraid to call out his countrymen on this.

“I don’t have Twitter to curse anymore, but count on me to end this culture of loser failure that was implemented in CS BR. News soon. In other words, the most loyal and bloodthirsty soldier in CS BR is coming back. That’s the message,” said TACO.

If this is anything to go by, TACO is likely making a return to professional CS and he suggests that his arrival would rejuvenate the teams and bring back the competitiveness that he believes has been missing for a long time.

3DMAX Core Team Might Switch Orgs Before RMR

French CS2 side 3DMAX has found themselves in an interesting situation as four out of the five players have contracts running out right before the RMR of the upcoming major which makes them free to seek a different organization.

The Shanghai Major is less than three months away and 3DMAX poses serious chances of qualifying through the European RMR. In light of recent revelations by HLTV’s sources, four 3DMAX players are free to seek a different organization right before the RMR. This might lead to the French organization missing out on Sticker deals from Valve. The signing of a new contract by the players can be the only way to avoid this debacle.

Now it remains upto the players as they are free to move forward under the 3DMAX banner if the organization chooses to retain the players or they can compete in the RMR orgless. Previous reports of delayed player salary and other mismanagement within the organization might push players away from them.

3DMAX is currently:

  • Bryan “⁠Maka⁠” Canda
  • Lucas “⁠Lucky⁠” Chastang
  • Thomas “⁠Djoko⁠” Pavoni
  • Pierre “⁠Ex3rcice⁠” Bulinge
  • Filip “⁠Graviti⁠” Brankovic
  • Damien “⁠wasiNk⁠” Dufour (coach)

Filip “⁠Graviti⁠” Brankovic being a more recent recruit has a longer contract than his compatriots which keeps him in the organization up until February of 2025. Should his teammates choose to venture out of 3DMAX right before the RMR, he would find himself in a difficult situation and only time can tell what becomes of this fiasco.
