The Karambit knife has a colorful coat of paint thanks to the Case Hardened skin. The stunning cosmetic gives the blade a bright yellow, blue, and purple coat of paint — making the skin’s owner stick out in a match. This brightly colored skin was released in 2013 alongside the Arms Deal upd
While others emphasized what Valve was up to, this blog was all about what fans were doing. It started out as a website before transitioning into a Discord server and a Twitter page. Now, it’s a fully-fledged social network in the making. I’ve long followed LambdaGeneration, so I was ecstatic when they reached out to me about an interview for the new initative. This group has always been the go-to place to find what the community is up to, or to uncover hidden gems – a new resource like this is a total game-changer.
Naturally, combining the two would only go well. Imagine selecting your hero from the lineup of approximately 10,000 girls in the Senran Kagura series, then picking a lane and farming faceless delinquents alone while your team yells at you to actually contribute to the game. Imagine a base that isn’t a towering ancient, but a giant anime girl whose clothes fly off the more damage you do to her. Imagine how many hats you could buy, except instead of giving your hero more clothing, it just disrobes them even more. It sells its
Of all the map revisions, Inferno is likely the most faithful to the original with so little changed that it would be more apt to call it a facelift. Then again, it’s not all that surprising so little was changed about the map since there were very few flaws with the map in general. Inferno is renowned for the balance it provides on both T and CT-sides, the high skill ceiling for players/teams to master the map, dynamic smoke Grenades and endless replayability at the casual and professional lev
As one of the oldest and most storied maps in competitive Counter-Strike history, Jo Bieg’s creation in BETA 4.0 of the original Counter-Strike mod has seen iterations and remakes across every single game. Needless to say, Nuke is iconic and up there with the likes of Inferno and Dust II. Due to its reputation, it was the second map to receive a significant revision to not only update the aesthetic but also resolve issues that have persisted for ye
However, with this most recent release, it’s easy to wonder – where will the series go next? At first blush, it might seem like the games are exhausting their possibilities when it comes to genre. But have no fear! We’re here with some salient ideas of how Senran Kagura can tap into the hottest industry trends to bring its unique brand of titillating action to an even broader audience! Let’s strip down and get right into
This is Steam’s most expensive Counter Strike weapon skin, selling for an unbelievable $1919.38 on the 2nd of January. The charts also show that the weapon has steadily been increasing in price over the past two years — taking the skin from $300 up to $1
As it stands the map is heavily CT-sided, especially at the casual level. While there are many options for the T-side to combat a lot of the strengths the CT-side has, many players have cited this to be difficult to execute outside of coordinated and disciplined teams. Meta changes since the map’s introduction have done little to change this leading to most matches feeling boring and predictable as to the outcome of the g
With a franchise already intrinsically connected to girls murdering swarms of their peers, the leap between “cutting high schoolers down in the streets” and “dying ten times to get one hit in on something” is a pretty small one. Bonus points if From Software comes on board and imbues the game with the immersive, organic physics their games are known
CS:GO predecessor Counter-Strike Source also gave players the opportunities to create their own Surf Maps. Thanks to Source improving on the game’s graphics and providing more flexible settings, a lot of Surf Maps stuck with Source . Classic options such as gimped surfing and bunnyhopping added a new level of thrill to Surf in Sour
Alex’s point is an important one. I occasionally jump to Reddit to find out what’s going on with the community, perhaps to discuss some wild theories about the G-Man after a long day of bunny-hopping through the waterways of Half-Life 2, but the subs are drowned in memes. So, I go to Twitter, where it’s near-impossible to find any structured form of discussion. The only spot to find community content in a neat package was LambdaGeneration, but even then it was curated by fans – what was being lost in that process? LambdaGeneration’s new social media platform addresses all of these issues.
This, doubled with the game’s wildly difficult execution, makes the game one of the hardest for newcomers to approach in the fighting game scene. KoF XV has tons of pretzel inputs that are physically hard to pull off, and can lead to injured wrists if done too often or incorrectly. All in all, KoF XV is a fun yet brutal game for newcomers to le
