Thug Reveals Income of Top Gaming Creators and Esports Players

In a recent episode of Nikhil Kamath’s podcast series, “WTF is with Nikhil Kamath,” gaming industry stalwart Animesh “Thug” Agarwal, CEO of 8bit Creatives and co-founder of S8UL Esports, revealed the lucrative and skewed nature of the gaming and esports industry. With a highly experienced panel featuring CEO of Krafton India Sean Hyunil Sohn, CEO of Lila Games Joseph Kim, and CEO of Nazara Technology Nitish Mittersain, the discussion shed light on the financial landscape of professional gaming and streaming in India.

Thug Reveals Top Gaming Creators Earn Millions Annually

In a section of the podcast, Nikhil Kamath asked Thug how much do successful Indian streamers and esports players make in India and how viable it is as a profession. Responding to this, Thug painted a nuanced picture of the earning potential in the Indian gaming scene, highlighting a significant disparity between the top earners and those struggling to even monetize their passion. “It is very skewed,” Thug stated. “The top steamers and the top gamers make a lot of money, and if you go to the bottom of the chart, people are not making money at all.”

Nikhil Kamath also asked Thug how much does the top Indian gaming content creators make and who is the top creator. Responding to this, Thug confidently said, “Million dollars comfortably in a year.” Talking about the top Indian gaming creators, he named MortaL, Scout, MythPat, and Payal, along with Techno Gamerz.

Thug Reveals Income of Top Esports Players

Following this, Nikhil Kamath curiously asked Thug what are the earning sources for these creators and where does this money come from. Responding to this, Thug revealed that the two major earning sources for gaming content creators are brand endorsement and their content, but emphasized that brand endorsement makes up a bigger chunk.

Transitioning from streamers to professional esports players, Nikhil Kamath asked how much they earn. Responding to this, Thug estimated that top esports players participating in official tournaments under registered teams could earn a respectable sum, ranging from 30 to 35 lakhs annually.

Sethos Hype: Genshin Impact 4.7 Ascension Materials Leaked – What You Need to Farm

Hold up, Genshin fam! It seems like version 4.7 might be dropping Sethos, the super intriguing Electro Bow character who popped up in Cyno’s story quest.  Leaks are spilling the beans on what we need to max out this potential new main, so get ready to grind.

Sethos’ Leaked Ascension Shopping List

Okay, the leaks aren’t 100% confirmed, but here’s the rumored scoop on Sethos’ ascension:

  • Vajrada Amethyst Everything: Slivers, Fragments, Chunks, and Gemstones. Stock up!
  • Trishiraite: You know the drill – time to explore the Sumeru desert.
  • Cloudseam Scales: Looks like we’re heading back to Liyue to take down the Solitary Suanni boss.
  • Daka’s Bells: Get ready to rumble with Scaramouche (again!) in his weekly domain.
  • Talent Books: It’s Steeple of Ignorance farming time on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
  • Crowns of Insight: As always, keep an eye out for limited-time events for these babies.

A Few Notes Before You Start the Grind

Leaks can change, so this might not be the final list. The usual common materials are still a mystery, so stay tuned for more updates!

So, When’s the Farming Party?

If Sethos really is dropping in 4.7, it’s smart to get a head start on those leaked materials. That way, the second he drops, you can level him up and start zapping those Hilichurls in style. Honestly, I’m super curious about his kit –  what do you guys think he’ll be like?

Coldzera To Join RED Canids

Brazilian Counter-Strike legend Marcelo “coldzera” David has agreed to join the RED Canids CS2 roster, as confirmed by reports from Dust2Br and The Clutch. 

According to the reports, the contract hasn’t been signed yet, which is why no official announcement has been made at the time of writing.

Before this, the 29-year-old had been an integral part of Legacy since September 2023 but was relegated to the bench by the end of March. In mid-April, the two-time Major champion announced his departure from the organization.

Coldzera will step in to fill the void left by Lucas “destiny” Bullo on RED Canids. Destiny was benched from the team in late March after their disappointing performance in the Americas RMR for the PGL Copenhagen Major 2024.

Following coldzera’s move, the new RED Canids roster will include the following players:

  • Carlos “⁠venomzera⁠” Eduardo
  • David “⁠dav1deuS⁠” Tapia Maldonado
  • Gabriel “⁠nython⁠” Lino
  • Wesley “⁠hardzao⁠” Lopes
  • Marcelo “⁠coldzera⁠” David
  • João “⁠righi⁠” Righi (coach)
  • Lucas “⁠destiny⁠” Bullo (benched)

League of Legends Patch 14.9: Release Date, All Changes, & More

Riot Games has officially revealed the details of the upcoming League of Legends patch 14.9, and the LoL community is excited to know more about all the changes that the update will bring with it to the MOBA.

In the next LoL update, Riot is planning to introduce several interesting changes to the game’s Champions. Some of the “easy champions” in the game like Amumu, Malzahar, Seraphine, Kennen, Sejuani, and Karma will be receiving minor buffs.

“Some of our easy champions (Amumu, Malzahar, Seraphine a bit less so) with low mastery have been sitting at 51% for a while,” lead gameplay designer Matt “Phroxzon” Leung-Harrison said in a statement. “For these champions, this is actually pretty critically weak, when their mastery curve is actually only something like 3% [compare this to a champion who is 50%, but has a mastery curve of 7%]. As a result we’re buffing them; it’s important that our training wheels champions feel powerful for these audiences.”

Without further ado, let’s check out the tentative patch notes of LoL patch 14.9 and see what the devs have in store for us.

Riot Removes Split From Valorant Matchmaking; When Will It Return?

In an announcement made on April 24th, Riot Games has confirmed that Split is getting removed from all game modes in Valorant due to a recently discovered bug.

As a result, Split will be unavailable in Unrated, Competitive, Spike Rush, and Swiftplay till the bug is fixed. Moreover, since Split was originally slated as the Premier map this week, it will be substituted with Ascent. Additionally, Split will not be included in the map pick and ban process for the Premier Playoffs scheduled for this Sunday.

Game-Breaking Split Bug Gets the Map Removed From Valorant’s Map Pool

The bug in question, although not officially specified by Riot, is believed by players to have allowed certain Agents to exploit their abilities, granting them access to extremely high locations on the map, thus providing an unfair advantage.

The announcement also highlights another issue involving Agent Cypher. This bug causes his Trapwires to appear on the minimaps of his teammates even after he has been killed. Despite this, Cypher will remain playable in the game.

When Will Split Return To Valorant?

Riot has confirmed that Split will be returning to Valorant alongside the upcoming patch 8.08 with both the aforementioned bugs being fixed. Valorant patch 8.08 is expected to hit the live servers around April 30, 2024.

Esports World Cup 2024 Will Not Feature Valorant

In a surprising turn of events, the Esports World Cup Foundation has excluded Valorant, one of the most prominent esports titles, from the highly anticipated Esports World Cup 2024. Valorant, developed by Riot Games, has a dedicated fanbase and a thriving competitive scene.

For players and teams who have dedicated countless hours honing their skills in Valorant, the news comes as a bitter disappointment, crashing hopes of showcasing their talents on the world stage and competing for a share of the historic prize pool. 

With Riot Games continuing to support and expand upon the title through regular updates, balance changes, and esports initiatives like Valorant Premier, there’s no doubt that Valorant will continue to thrive in terms of esports, with or without representation at the Esports World Cup 2024.

Esports World Cup 2024: All Esports Titles

World’s top players and esports clubs will compete in Esports World Cup 2024 across 20 events spanning 19 different video game titles. Despite the absence of Valorant, the lineup boasts a diverse array of games sure to captivate audiences worldwide.
