We reported on the player fatigue that was beginning to rear its head in the professional scene of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive in early December of 2019, an article that would eventually be the siren call that marked a string...
It’s unexpected, but once you hear the news it all falls into place. Legendary Counter-Strike: Global Offensive player (for the equally famous team Astralis) ‘Gla1ve’ has announced on Twitter that he’s simply burned out, and taking a three-month hiatus from...
It all occurred rather suddenly yesterday, and was everywhere on the internet shortly after; the source code for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and Team Fortress 2, was leaked online yesterday. Immediately there was a bevy of misinformation as everyone rushed to publish...
When Valorant, or Project A as it was then known, originally was announced, many presumed that it would be the veritable Counter-Strike: Global Offensive killer. Or the Overwatch killer. Perhaps the Call of Duty killer. No matter what title it specifically was, Valorant was supposed to...
Valve has been putting their shoulder to the wheel when it comes to development lately. They’ve recently added a patch with a good number of fixes to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, changing up half a dozen maps and making small balance...
Valve has had their plate full on the development side of things. The recent (and very successful) release of Half-Life: Alyx had them returning to a franchise that they’ve been badgered to revisit for more than a decade, and they’re...
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced most of us across the world inside at this point. As self-isolation and quarantine continue to be implemented and even extended in some areas, games have had more of a (quite literally) captive audience...

Another day, another record was broken by a game that is older than many gamers of the modern-day; Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has broken yet another record for the title, eight years after it released on August 21, 2012, by Valve. ...
At this point, you know about the COVID-19 Coronavirus, so no introduction seems apt. Nerd Street Gamers has announced that they’ll be shutting down a high number of their in-person esports events due to concerns over the virus. If...
Yet another gaming victim is had from COVID-19’s widely spread reign of pestilence, and it is once again an esports casualty. IEM Katowice, one of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive’s largest tournaments, has had its mass event license revoked one day...
It’s not exactly a secret that the most recent update from Valve allowing players to unlock various operators was tenuously received, at best. Many professional players took to social media with some kickback in regards to players becoming difficult...
It’s a tale as old as time; someone gets tilted in previous matches, and then begins spewing wildly toxic epithets to new teams as the tilt continues harder and stronger. Then someone on the new team gets tilted from...
