Casetoo Sets a New Record for Highest Kills in BGMI

Popular Indian gaming YouTuber Aditya “Casetoo” Sharma has etched his name in history by achieving the highest number of kills in a single match in Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI). Previously, Yash Thacker, popularly known as LoLzZz Gaming, held the record with 49 kills. However, now, Casetoo holds the highest kills in BGMI in a single match record with 51 kills to his name.

Casetoo’s Unprecedented 51 Kills in a Single BGMI Match

On September 9th, Casetoo uploaded a video on his YouTube channel, featuring the match where he secured this record-breaking feat of 51 kills. He played the match on Erangel, a favorite map among BGMI players known for its diverse terrain and intense gameplay. Casetoo, renowned for his incredible gaming skills and entertaining content, showcased remarkable gameplay and fast reflexes throughout the match to achieve this extraordinary milestone.

In the video, Casetoo landed in the new Dragon Ball Theme Park, also known as Igloo, on Erangel. Right from the start, it was clear that this match would be unlike any other. Casetoo, with the help of his teammates, surprisingly secured an impressive 32 kills at the drop location itself. Following this, he navigated the map, tracking and eliminating enemies one by one.

As the match progressed, Casetoo continued to amass kills, pushing the boundaries of what was previously thought possible.

The first moment of glory came when Casetoo reached his half century of kills, securing a whopping 50 kills under his belt. After completing 50 kills, Casetoo revealed that he had been relentlessly trying to achieve this feat for approximately around a month, and had finally achieved it.

His second moment of glory came when he killed the last remaining opponent, securing his 51st kill in the match and setting a new record for the highest number of kills in a single BGMI match.

Counter Strike 2 Rank Distribution Percentages Revealed

Counter Strike 2 Rank Distribution Percentages Revealed

Nearly two weeks have passed since Valve implemented a new ranking system in Counter Strike 2, and fans of the tactical shooter from throughout the globe are tuning into the title to test out their competitive skills in the newly-introduced Premier matchmaking in CS2. The new and revamped ranking system, CS Rating, is exclusive to the Premier Mode in CS2, and it aims to address all the problems that the previous ranking system in CSGO suffered from.

The lack of transparency in the ranking system of CSGO has always been a major cause of concern for the game’s player base, with players often complaining about receiving no rank increments despite winning a bunch of games in a row. Moving forward, the new CS Rating will be able to precisely display a player’s skill by assigning each player an elo between 0 and 20K+.

Curious to find out where you stand on the new and revamped ranking spectrum of Counter Strike? Fortunately, it seems that the rank distribution graph of CS2 has already been revealed by third-party websites.

Leetify, a popular third-party website to keep track of stats involving CSGO, has already revealed on Twitter the current rank distribution of CS2. According to the data, there is a consistent increase in the number of players within each CS Rating group up until approximately 9,000 CS Rating. Beyond this point, there is a gradual decline, with a mere 0.3% of players achieving a CS Rating exceeding 20,000. Fans can check out the graph embedded below for more details.

When comparing these figures to the CSGO ranking system, the differences become apparent. In the current CSGO rank distribution, there is a consistent rise in player numbers up to the level of Master Guardian Elite. Notably, the highest rank in CSGO, Global Elite, represents nearly 6% of the game’s total player base.

As CS2 remains in its closed beta phase, it’s worth noting that the distribution of player ranks in the game is likely to change as more people gain access. This means that as more players join and play the game, the way ranks are distributed among them will shift. It’s a natural part of the game’s development and reflects how the player community and competition are evolving. So, be prepared for some changes in the ranks as CS2 continues to grow and improve before its official release.

CS2 Servers are Still Running at 64 Tick Despite Valve’s Sub-Tick Claim: Report

CS2 Servers are Still Running at 64 Tick Despite Valve’s Sub-Tick Claim: Report

The gaming community has always been divided over the optimal tick rate for Counter-Strike servers. With the introduction of CS2, this debate has been reignited. FACEIT, a renowned third-party matchmaking system, has revealed that its CS2 servers will operate at a 128 tick rate. In contrast, Valve’s official servers continue to run at 64 ticks. Despite Valve’s claims about their new sub-tick update system making these disparities irrelevant, the community remains divided.

Previously, former CSGO professional player, kennyS, shared his experience on FACEIT’s servers, noting the improved accuracy and responsiveness. He mentioned hitting shots that felt genuine and highlighted the precision of pistols and sprays. However, he also pondered if this was merely a placebo effect. Another significant concern raised was the AK-47’s performance on official servers, which many players found unreliable. Adjusting the “cl_updaterate” to 128 seemed to rectify this, further fueling the argument for 128 tick servers.

FACEIT 128 subtick confirmed
byu/MmX_A_ inGlobalOffensive

ThourCS, a prominent figure in the gaming community, recently confirmed on Twitter that Valve continues to use 64 tick servers for their Matchmaking services. The difference in tick rates essentially means that FACEIT’s servers refresh game data twice as fast as Valve’s, potentially offering a smoother gaming experience.

Valve’s sub-tick server claim in matchmaking is now under scrutiny and the community is apparently not happy with it. Historically, the CSGO player base has preferred third-party systems like FACEIT and ESEA, especially at higher levels of play because of their 128 tick servers and sophisticated anti-cheat system.

We haven’t yet received any official comment from Valve.

How’s your experience playing on the official matchmaking server in CS2? Let us know in the comment section below.
