Professional e-sports athlete Ryan Hart (UK) has just set a Guinness World Records title for the Most consecutive opponents on Street Fighter V, going up against an incredible 260 people during an ambitious 11-hour record attempt at GAME in Manchester’s intu Trafford Centre.
Playing continuously, with no rest breaks, Ryan was required to win at least 90% of the matches – but the talented gamer managed to beat his challengers in every single game.
Overseen by official Guinness World Records adjudicator Pravin Patel, Ryan took on the epic gaming challenge to celebrate the launch of the latest instalment of the long-running fighting videogame franchise.
Speaking about his record, Ryan Hart said: “I’m thrilled to have set a new Guinness World Record for Street Fighter V, I feel it complements the longevity my gaming career has had and I’m really happy about that. Not being allowed to take any breaks whatsoever for 11 hours was really tough. There were times in the challenge where I just wanted it to be over but I tried to stay calm and think in small steps.”
As a result of his achievement Hart has secured a coveted place in the Guinness World Records 2017 Gamer’s Edition book, out later this year.
Robert Morris University in Chicago has a League of Legends team, and 35 players are on scholarships. eGamer Evan Lawson and coach Kurt Melcher break it down for AJ+. RMU’s Counter-Strike, Dota 2, and Hearthstone teams also have scholarship players, but only a couple per team. From video journalist Cindy Martin.
The ESL Pro League Season 3 kicks off today with Europe’s and North America’s very best teams participating. For several weeks, the teams will be playing it out against each other on the ESEA platform for for a slot in the season finals and their share of the incredible US$750,000 prize pool.

The industry might or might not be up-to the mark in terms of core membership or an optimistic vision, but sometimes professionals make their way through, without complaining about problems and hurdles, with sheer dedication, and a perception of changing the goal post.
We have with us today, the diary of the very famous and talented man from the Indian Esports industry, Sudhen Bleh Wahengbam, who has a moderate presence considered by his unalloyed and worthiest shoutcasts. We sat down with him and asked questions about his personal and professional life. Preserving sleek transparency, Bleh also shared his views on how can we contribute towards a developing Esports ecosystem in India and why are we lacking in terms of exposures even though with all the resources available. Bleh directly looks after the Broadcasting and Production affairs at SoStronk HQ, Bangalore. You can connect with bleh on both twitter and facebook.

We know nothing about your family and personal life, would you allow us to sneak-into it a little to know more about you? Where are you from?
I’m usually quite private about my life and never let my work leak into my personal space. But that being said, I was born in Bangalore but raised in Manipur where I did most of my schooling, after which I got into Engineering and also spent a year or so in the US pursuing my Masters. I come from a very academic background family wise, and I guess I was lucky to be able to balance my gaming addiction with my studies.
Amidst of 1.6 and CSGO era, how did you manage to step-up as a caster?
I’ve been following eSports since around 2001 watching broadcasts of Starcraft and Quake 3 on TV shows, giving me a glimpse into eSports. I can say I started playing CS with v1.3, but never really thought of pursuing it competitively (although I had a sick AWP then :P) as I saw no feasible potential for me as an actual profession but the game always remained a passion.
After 1.6 died, I was looking forward to CS:GO when it was announced. I was sorely disappointed with how utterly shit it was when it first came out, but was happy with how it became more competitively viable as some time passed. Since, I was working a boring job at that time (circa 2012) and had time to kill, I picked up CS:GO with a zeal to try and compete at a high level; something I never bothered with in 1.6.
Got a really good internet connection soon after (thanks ACT!) and started streaming for the heck of it, and well, one thing led to another, and here we are.
Were you a speaker by Hobby even before you started casting CSGO?
Funnily enough I used to have immense stage fright and stutter a lot in school. I guess it helped that I got into a lot of Rock/Metal music and even performed on stage as a vocalist a few times during my high school and college days, which helped me be confidence in front of an audience.
Casting for me was a joke I used to pull of in MatchMaking games or PUGs when I used to give a joke/faux cast when my teammate was alone in a clutch, trying to imitate an Anders or a Semmler. Until someone said, ‘Hey you should actually do this for real tournaments’ and I thought why not?
Did you even think of pursuing this as your primary career?
This is actually my primary career at the moment. As the head of SoStronk’s broadcasting and Production one major aspect of my job is casting/analyzing games and getting paid for it. Not to mention, being a part of any major Asian CS:GO event as a caster/analyst.
Would I have thought this would be a potential career a couple of years ago? Hell no. But I’m glad I had the balls to stand up for myself and decide to take the leap of faith into something that almost everyone and their parents said was a stupid idea.
You are a core asset to the Indian esports Industry and have contributed a lot in a very short time-span, even if the circumstances don’t allow you, would you still be a part of the industry?
That’s very hard to answer. I’m lucky in many ways to be where I am right now, but at the same time, I did make the effort to carve out my own niche in this nascent industry. I would always go back to the time when I used to cast random ESEA games for a grand total of 1 viewer for hours altogether. From 1 viewer to 20000+ viewers don’t happen just because of circumstances, it also boils down a lot on your work and how you mentally approach this industry.
No, IÂ mean the circumstances as in, god-forbid if things don’t go right way with SoStronk or whatever the planning is about?
Even if circumstances change, I still am going to remain in the scene, as I feel eSports is just starting off and I have much to give to the scene. The opportunities are enormous, not just for the players, but for others like me who cater to other aspects of eSports. Given the right mental fortitude and drive, there is no dearth of opportunities.
What is your take on the current Esports scenario in India? Talking about players, individuals, organizations, what are you suggestions to the newcomers? Should people focus more on setting up organizations? or focus on the gameplay?
eSports in India is still very fledgling and not helped by the fact that so many so called ‘eSports organizers’ are hosting atrocities called ‘eSports events’ just to make a quick buck while setting back the entire scene by quite a few years by their myopic, selfish actions.
Players need to be more mature, and have that will-to-win-no-matter-what mentality. eSports people need to rise above daily soap operas and look at the bigger picture to take things forward.
I feel we need eSports organizations set up preferably by ex-players who have a vision, not those who are still getting hard-ons over their past achievements and stuck in the past. And the players should only focus on playing, not be involved with the politics and running of the organization. This segregation is very important at this juncture.
Have you been following any caster to impersonate prior to yourself taking on the charge?
I have never tried to impersonate any caster as such, but yes I used to be huge fans of Joe Miller, Paul ‘ReDeYe’ Chaloner and Stuart ‘Tosspot’ Saw and have learnt a lot from them w.r.t what casting entails. And ofcourse the work ethic of Anders in particular.
Where do you draw your inspiration from?
My inspiration? I don’t have any inspiration in particular from eSports, I guess I draw it from heavy metal. Something about this type of music gets me to go all out and do what I want to do, and screw whoever says I can’t.
Tell us a little about your experience at ESL Taipei.
IEM Taipei was simply put, fucking incredible. Casting, analyzing and most importantly, getting drunk with the likes of Anders, Semmler, Moses, Pansy, Vendetta and DDK was absolutely amazing. To talk to these guys about CS in general and of course just hanging out with the royalty of CS casting was definitely something I can tick off my bucket list.
Also just to see how an IEM is conducted and managed puts into stark contrast how abysmal and backwards the events in India are.
You are India’s one of the innovative and credible Esports organization, SoStronk, what are your further plans with SoStronk?
SoStronk is on the cusp of breaking out as one of the 3rd party platforms for CS:GO. The team is extremely qualified, dedicated and talented. They genuinely love eSports and have the know-how and drive to make their crazy dreams a reality. I’m really glad to be a part of the team because they are doing things which no one in India, or anywhere on the planet are doing right now.
I plan to continue my work with them, primarily because they share my vision of eSports and I see big things in the horizon for SoStronk. Ask anyone of our users, they know SoStronk is synonymous with quality and competence; something which is non-existent when it comes to so many other eSports organizers in the country.
What is the best advice you’d give to the fresh talents and the junior casters?
Firstly, do your preparation. If you want to be taken seriously, you have to be competent and prepared. You’re going to be compared with the likes of an Anders or a DDK, and unless you bring something new or unique to the table, you’re heading for a dead end.
I would really recommend new casters to read ReDeYe’s guide to eSports broadcasting, work on your delivery, understand the game extremely in depth, be open to criticism and build a solid knowledge base and don’t get disheartened easily. There are no shortcuts, you need to persevere like in any other field; but with the right approach and work ethic it’s possible to get somewhere. And most importantly, don’t forget to have fun!
Thanks for being very frank and transparent all-throughout. Anything else you’d like to share with our readers?
Shoutout to all the guys who used to tune in when I just started casting and gave me that initial encouragement to keep continuing. Also, a huge shoutout to the brilliant nutcases in SoStronk who make me continue to do. what I love.
And of course to everyone who want to make it in eSports, don’t let anyone get you down. Just persevere and always keep your head up. GLHF!

For Joona “natu” Leppänen, 30, computer game Counter-Strike was lifesaver after the death of his parents. ENCE Esports manager made e-sports his job after 15-year-long gaming career.
16-years old Joona manages to catch his mother when she falls head ahead to radiator. Because of cytostatic treatment his mothers lungs are full of fluid and she can’t breath while laying.
Son has sleeped next to his mother almost a year. Since his mothers cancer renewed. It happened just a couple months after his dad died on worktrip in Copenhagen.
16-years old Joona wasn’t told the severity of his mothers disease, but he still knew. First his mother lost her voice.
I dont know if she still has WSOY booksales phone record. She was goddamn good.
In August 2001 his mother was a shadow of her former self. Close friends and relatives and even Joona himself thought it was better to get their mind away from it. He visits in Lahti to meet his mother on Friday and leaves to Helsinki, Finland biggest computer festival, Assembly.
In Helsinki Areena there is thousands congenials with computers. In the dark space only computer and lighshows bring some light. Joona forgot his mother for a while but misery comes back quickly after the trip.
Brother comes to wake him up from a nap on Sunday and asks him to come to the hospital.
– I was next to anesthetized mother. It was not a pleasant view and I wanted to go home.
A couple of hours later brother comes home and tells that their mother has died.
Gaming became one of the reasons why I have stayed sane.
Nick name from a Vichy bottle.
A dark station wagon curves to a parking lot of Lahti train station. There is no point in trying to move the front seat backwards. Behind the wheel sits Finnish gaming world icon Joona “Natu” Leppänen, 30.
He has seen almost everything in e-sports.
For 15 years Leppänen played himself to the hearts of Finnish and international public in the Counter-Strike computer game, which is one of the most popular computer games.
He is the Teemu Selänne of e-sports, that gets to still answer quoestions about a comeback. However Joona isn’t going to play anymore as a pro.
Now, 2016 he has made gaming industry his job. He is the manager and partner in ENCE eSports which has started the first professional Counter-Strike team in Finland.
Ence wants to the Top-10 of world, to grab the big trophies and prize money. World conquer starts in Febuary from Assembly Winter held in Messukeskus.
I remeber Joona´s mystic nickname from start of 2000. If someone said back then that I´ll be making a huge profile of him, I would have probably laughed, siped my coke and kept playing.
Five years older than me, Joona had often Vichy in his glass back then, from which also his nickname was born. There was “Natural” written on his bottle of Vichy which easily shortened to natu.
One of the biggest criteria in the orange-bricked house in a suburb close Patoniitty, is fast internet. While going in you have to watch for toys while walking. Leppänen and his wife have three children, oldest is 8-years and youngest just a couple of months old.
Childhood home of Leppänen is about ten kilometers to the north. Joona is the youngest of his family, his big brothers are 8 and 12 years older. Dad owned a furniture shop in 90s and his mother sold books.
Young Joona played football and floorball, and also tried skijumping. In the track of big brother came Joonas first touches to gaming. Commodore 64 was huge thing for a 5-year-old in beginning of the 90’s. Before the turn of the millennium, the family of Leppänen was a forerunner on internet connections. Because of his dads job they had fax-line and a fast ISDN-connection.
Quakeworld, released in 1996, is held as the first internet multiplayer game, and that is where Joona’s gaming got a more serious spark.
-I was just a kid, hadn’t even had my voice break, so I got a lot of shit thrown at me. I didn’t give a fuck about the opinions of others. I traveled my own path.
Parents death derailed to foggy trails.
Joonas older brother and his girlfriend of that time, now wife, became his guardians after their parents death. Joona was 16, brother 28.
The trio was living in Leppänen residence, until Joona was adult. Sports hobbies and childhood friends started to recede, because Joona was tired of listening to his friends bemoaning his destiny.
Playing Counter-Strike brought meaning to Joona`s life and filled the emptiness. Playing shooters and being on computer all day long wasn’t to the liking of his brothers. Specially, when 16 years old youngster didn’t manage to grab any hold of finances or housekeeping.
– Don’t talk bullshit, that is not going to be anything, everyone said. Although without it everything could be worse.
Brothers saw gaming as the reason, why the youngest one was doing badly. Joona understands why his big brother felt that kinda pain.
– Afterwards gotta take off my hat to my brother for staying sane. At least his guardian knew where he was, when little brother was playing in his room and not off raging in some corner of a park with bags of beer.
However, at the age of 16 Leppänen went on to play for the first time abroad.
From e-sports olympics to home with medal
Five players sit on left side in row, five on right side. Each one sees the shooters world from their own character eyes. Five counter-terrorists, five terrorists, in the halftime the sides are switched. Terrorists try to plant a bomb or eliminate all CT’s with their guns. CT tries to do the opposite.
One game round lasts for 2 and a half minutes and then they go at it again. Match win requires 16 rounds and winning the game needs one, two or four match wins. Other side defends, other attacks. Looks complicated, but in the end it’s so simple.
Nowadays all kinds of named tournaments are offered all around the world. It was different during the start of Natu´s career.
Joona´s first tournament on abroad was World Cyber Games held in Korea 2001. Christened as the olympics of the gamingworld, the tournament was first held in 2001 and continued on until 2013.
Each sport had only one team per country, just like in olympics. Leppänen was representing Finland in his first tournament trip. Back then just a few in Europe had heard about e-sports.
However, players of the phenomenom that rose from Korea were superstars in Soul already in 2001.
Girls were running screaming behind Starcraft player “SlayerSBoxer”. I was a little bit like, what is going on here.
Joona and four other Finns took the third place and earned altogether 10 000 dollars. The medal decorated with three olympic rings is still safe and touching it makes Natu smile. Nowadays the biggest attention in the fireplace room is taken by their firstborn childs trophies.
His carees first tournaments arrangements were world-class, and waiting for the same kind of experience took a long while.
During his 15-year career Natu played for a many different fiveplayer teams. In e-sports a teams life-cycle is usually short, when players go different ways in gaming and life.
The team from the olympics split quickly and the ambitious Leppänen didnt’ instantly find his place even he tried many times. In 2003 he started a group with his friends the goal of which was to go have fun in tournaments. It always wasn’t.
Leppänen remembers with horror the arrangements of the summer of 2003 Assembly tournament. In the flagship event of Finland the players were sitting at that time on boardwalk benches familiar from the army, and gaming was done on wooden tables. Even the monitors were from the previous millenium.
Level differences were evened out quite a bit. We lost to teams that we shouldn’t ever lose to.
Nowadays tournaments you dont see that.
A peculiar team name makes laugh still
Natus office is in the other corner of the house. The state agent used as a selling point the houses earlier resident. Finnish music superstar Cheek was training his rhymes in the same room in the 90s’.
Of course I have to try pull-ups on the same bar as young Jare Henrik Tiihonen.
After Lahti groups fun time Leppänen decided to take a new step up to building a new team. First time in Finland, a super team was being built that would try to achieve success outside Finland also.
This was the mother of all good names: Liquid ice. Liquid ice, for which the term ‘water’ can also be used if we’re being accurate. Of course we’re not.
Liquid Ice didn’t need to enjoy their name too long because the teams winning streak brought new chances. Finlands top organisation Destination Skyline snapped the whole team to themselves and started one of the biggest succes stories in Leppänen’s life.
We were the first Finnish team that had success abroad.
During the year Destination Skyline won many tournaments all around Europe. A call from Finlands government broke the successful team when some of them had to join the military. Leppänen had played since his junior highschool times and was thinking about ending his career as a 19-years old.
Teammate Markus “Tico” Kivipuro managed to tell that he will retire first.
Then I couldn’t stop there, someone had to keep taking this forward. Maybe I have to thank Markus for that. 20-year-old Leppänen made his first pro contract with British Four Kings. Monthly salary wasn’t much, but a four-digit amount of euros for an unemployed was a lot of money.
You could say that natu was a pro too early. Now top players in the world earn monthly five-digit amounts. Bonus, fansales and tournament winnings make yearly incomes amount to over 300 000 euros.
In Finland the path to these kinds of incomes is still long.
Trophies and sports outcome are bigger things than euros.
Sometimes Leppänen handles ENCE esports matters easily with computer or phone. Messages pop up in three different programs, first thing in his mind is a radio interview of one of the players.
In the early 90’s in the houses corner room the first beats to a Finnish music revolution were made. Now in 2016 Leppänen is writing the gaming world anew.
The two years spent in the British group were gameplay-wise the best time of natus career. After that the second and last pro contract took him to somewhere every competitor wants to go; on the top of his own sports.
Leppänen joined the already earlier founded Finnish team 69N28E that won many tournaments in 2007. Careers biggest win came in NGL One held in Berlin.
After the tournament win in Germany the team got ranked as number one in world. After reaching the top the same thing happened to Natu that happened to Selänne after winning the Stanley cup. His mind was taken by emptiness.
There wasn’t any sense in my life for 7 years. Then it was big thing to get a job. I got a hold of my life and everyday life started to be within limits.
Suddenly the familys 8-year-old child comes in.
“When does this end” he askes with sad face.
Seriously taken hobby or two jobs?
Leppänen applied for a job the first time when he was 22. He told in his interview fir DNA openly that he played computer games as a “profession”. He turned the word, known to many as a kind of curse word, to his advantage in working life
I have pressure tolerance and i dont go from small public appearance to lock. CS and workcommunity has alot of same.
Leppänen was working for DNA and an IT-company based in Lahti until 2014. The “Selänne of CS” didn’t have patience to stay away from games for more than one and a half years, but his attitude towards them has changed a lot.
It was then just a serious hobby. I didn’t need to take stress from doing good when it didn’t have any financial meaning anymore.
Actually Leppänen worked two jobs. First was from 10 to 18 in office, the other on his home computer until midnight. And it was also too little for competive gaming because on during his time as a pro Leppänen played often for over ten hours a day.
Greetings to the relationship when after work you eat and throw a highfive before gaming. For some time I did it, but then the hours of the day started being not enough. When we got more children it became impossible.
Decision of retirement came in May of 2015, even though he saw e-sports growing up fast.
It would have probably been just a question of time when he would himself also be getting a grab on good earnings. But that assumption didn’t pay the bills for a family of five. The decision to retire came fully from himself.
My wife has been a hockey wife without the millions in bank. She anyways understood that it is my passion.
Leppänen hasn’t jumped out from the gaming world after retiring.
He only went deeper when e-sports offered for the first time a real job for the dad of three children.
Joona “Natu” Leppänen first became e-sports coach and commentator. Later he started as a manager in ENCE.
In start of natus career these kinds of jobs were few and far between but now Vierumäki sports academy is training e-sports coaches for the first time.
It’s easier to explain my job now.
Still twenty hours a week playing.
Leppänen still didn’t abondon gaming. As a retiree he plays over twenty hours a week. Biggest reason for this is livestreaming service Twitch, where players can send live video from his own gaming.
For Leppänen streaming is way to relax and create his own brand in gaming industry.
Twitch is a textbook example of the chill culture of nowadays. One streams, others watch and comment. Fans get very close to the pros they adore, who also get natural channel to talk for their followers. International tournaments are also shown live on Twitch and you can watch replays from there also.
Streaming services are one of the notable growing money flows in the gaming world. For streamer money may come from subscribers and donations, ad and sponsor incomes and also selling fan stuff.
Players are extremely huge brand figures. If you like some product it also has a huge impact to viewers opion.
Money brings also side effects.
Betting has come in lately and lead to gamem anipulations that have lead to lifetime bans. Also underage people betting is a growing problem because control is bad. In-game item gambling is compared to the Wild West.
Peoples interest is now on a different level than in 2001 around natus first tournament trip.
We came home with medals on our necks and showed couple pictures that this is what it was like. Now if you lose you get death threats in Twitter.
And when you talk about computer games there is also the threat of cheats. Leppänen knows the problem but tells that the community is working to get rid of it.
-If you are talented why would you throw your career away for one fast buck. Of course it’s same thing with doping, there is always someone taking the risk. I would still think of this as a clean sport compared to traditional sports.
Neverending question about the status as a sport
Yeah, those traditional sports.
Cursewords fly after another journalist interviews Leppänen on the phone in the middle of everything. The gaming guru doesn’t like biased questions about e-sports being sports. He is annoyed that he is asked only one question. Is it sports?
After smoking a cigarette he clarifies.
From the players POV this is competition which has many things from sports. Physically you gotta be on point so you can do 110% for 2-3 hours nonstop. On the mental side it has the same things. I know top players that have used the services of sports psychologists.
A small slackening can make the difference between 100 000 and 0 dollars.
For me a sports status doesn’t mean anything. From viewers POV this is entertainment which has the same elements as any sports.
Amen.
Even more abundant is the discussion about the health side. Leppänen has answers ready for anyone.
Daily rhythm is good to keep in balance and do something else before playing. Go running, gym or do some other things. And in this sport you dont get anywhere if you aren’t social. All the time you connected to some corner of world.
Its hard to not agree with Joona “Natu” Leppänen when you have heard his crazy story during the day. For him, gaming offered a lifesaver to deal with all difficult things.
I dont know where my road would have taken me after my parents death if I didn’t have Counter-Strike. I have been humiliated and heard shit from people but at the same time I believed in what I’m doing. I feel I’m privileged when I turned my hobby into a job. It’s everyones dream.
Finally the firstborn gets to take over the room. Immediately he tries to start a gaming console.
How does dad take it, if his son becomes a pro player?
I haven’t thought that far, Leppänen smiles while he goes to help his son.
It doesn’t take many minutes until the console is on and his son gets to spend his Monday with his favourite game.
Now that everything is settled and the water shows a perfect reflection we present to you a basic fundamental survey done on the masses and the result being brought down to which predicts, calculates actually what rank should you be bearing right now.
It has gone well with me and our writers of CSGO here, find out is it working for you as well? A comparison chart which presents where you were and where are you now after the rank-demolishing patch was rolled out last year.
In what could be seen as another milestone for eSports here in Southeast Asia, eSports Malaysia, in partnership with the Malaysian Ministry Youth & Sports, Ministry of Communications & Multimedia, and Ministry of Higher Education, will host the ASEAN Games for eSports (AGES) 2016.

India might have a strong opportunity by participating in this SEA-limited event, as Team Elunes made a strong impact in the International and Asian rankings in the DotA 2 scale. More information regarding this tournament will be revealed soon.
The history behind the mysterious Counter Strike c4 code is still untold. The numbers 7355608 are very familiar to every FPS player who has been in any point of their life, a part of journey through the Counter Strike franchise.
Finally, after a much entertaining journey of 17 cumulative years of Counter Strike 1.6 and Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Now you can finally change the way you see the C4 or the Bomb in the game. Finally you can change CSGO c4 code while playing and experiencing it yourself.
A YouTuber AmitKilo has presented in a video, the methods on how to change CSGO c4 code, keeping in mind that this change is only client sided and no one else will be able to experience this other than you. Also the fact that this is client-sided which means there is no risk of VAC or anyother server-sided restrictions which means you will be able to use this method in the third party match-making softwares as well including FACEIT, ESEA and SoStronk community servers.
Change CSGO C4 code
As being said and explained, there are two ways to change the c4 code. A simple way is to use the pre-defined custom codes which you just need to replace in the game files for best usage. And a bit complicated method wherein you can choose what code you’d like to put while planting the C4.
Both the methods are extremely understandable and the author has done an excellent job in maintaining a 0-exp training methodology, so as to make even a new player easy to use these tools.
The download links are available here and you can easily learn from the video within on how to change csgo c4 code. To make it very clear once again, I’d like to share the fact that the change in the code is only client-sided which means nobody else but you will be able to view it, not even in the demo will it be visible. just you and your POV will record the change of code.
