Overpass was first introduced in the Winter Offensive update back on December 18, 2013, as the first Counter-Strike map created specifically for competitive play. Despite this fact, the map saw many growing pains upon its release and for once it wasn’t due to being CT-sided. On release, the map appeared to be very T-sided with pros noting how easy it was to gain map control and execute on to the A bomb s
Before the Berlin Major, CR4ZY’s (formerly Valiance & Co) best accomplishments to date were their victory at United Masters League Season 1 and a 2nd place finish at DreamHack Open Tours 2019 . As a result, CR4ZY would first have to battle it out with established CS:GO teams like Big, Fnatic, Mousesports, North, and Optic, along with ten other teams, having to secure a top-eight spot in order to advance to the next stage of the major qualifier. From there, they would have to secure one of the top two spots at the Europe Minor Championship or face another stage of the qualif
Vagrant Story is my second choice. For starters, it is a Square game, and all of them get sequels. The hero, Ashley Riot, finds himself in a mystery of murder all while having his memories altered. The internal struggle of Ashley trying to figure out his real goal was quite emotio
For my third choice, Beyond Good and Evil (the sequel has been in ‘pre-production’ for two years). The main character, Jade, reminded me of a female Luke Skywalker (pre-Force) in her quest to investigate an alien
Another element of CS:GO that many people tend to overlook is the fact that it would cause many teams to become predictable. Currently, teams must adapt to one another and constantly change the way in which they play depending on the opponent they are facing. When a new team like Crazy comes into the fold, many teams don’t have enough information about them to effectively counter-strat them, leading to upsets and changes in the game’s overall meta. Each team, depending on their home region, has a specific way of playing the game, which helps to keep it fresh and excit

Arguably the parent of Overwatch and its unique game modes, Team Fortress is a team shooter that remains popular to genre newcomers and pros years after its initial release . Players in a squad choose one out of nine classes, each with predetermined abilities and toolkits that can help achieve the mode’s objectives. Matches can involve mechanics such as moving carts, protecting locations, or even stealing briefca
Unlike other battle royales, environments in Warzone are based on real-life conflict areas. Weapon caches and ammo stashes are scattered all across the region, with high-rise buildings and houses serving as perfect hiding spots or sniping zones. Players in teams or solo need to keep their eyes peeled in this realistic iteration of the battle royale experie
With the beginning of December comes two things: the end of overwhelming amount holiday video game releases and the holidays itself, which effectively means that gamers everywhere will be spending time catching up on their backlog. There are still a handful of games releasing this month, but it is nothing at all like what we’ve seen in October and November and because of this the Game Guide has made a significant change for this edition – we will not only be detailing the games we’ll be playing this month but the ones we’re looking forward to next year as w
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, and endless replayability at the casual and professional lev
Who says there are no good games released in December? Mario Kart 7 , Nintendo’s latest entry into it’s iconic racing franchise is coming this year, and it’s coming to a 3DS. What better way to ignore family at those tedious holiday get togethers than by racing down Rainbow Road? Still not sold? Well maybe you should check out our Mario Kart 7 review to see why this is one of the 3DS’ hottest tit
The so-called “complex” story of Stranglehold: some bad guys have your daughter and your ex girlfriend, and you have to keep pulling the trigger at said bad guys until you find them. To give an even shorter description, it’s like Max Payne with 40% less story and 50% more act
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 CS2 Skins Transfer predictable as to the outcome of the g
