by WaxThe round of 16 comes to a close with Group D, where three championship-winning Protoss players are joined by an unlikely underdog in Armani. It's a warped mirror image of Group B, where sole Zerg Solar had to go up against three far more well-regarded Terrans. The streamlined practice may not have availed Solar then, but perhaps Armani will show us what three weeks of his finely honed ZvP can do.Group D: Trap, Armani, sOs, ZestStart time: Thursday, Apr 15 9:30am GMT (GMT+00:00)Any talk about Trap has to start

The popular Dota 2 coach returns to the scene after a six-month respite. Elephant Esports Club had been expecting Bai “rotK” Fan to coach its team since October 2020, but rotK said he needed time off to think things through. His decision to take a break from active competition stems from the controversy involving the Elephant-4AM partnership and Vici Gaming. Vici Gaming originally charged that transfer fees for Zhang "Eurus" Chengjun’s were a 'known fact' accusing the Elephant investor of dragging their feet on the payment. Elephant were later forced

As a writer for a prestigious, bemedaled, and besponsored organization like Team Liquid, life is regularly very exciting and I’m constantly typing words like “win,” and “first” and “Team” and “Liquid.” Being such a winning organization, naturally most words said about Team Liquid are Good and Nice. To match these Good and Nice words, we work our hardest to show the best manners in esports. As the most bemannered organization in esports, we make sure we’re winning in terms of both politeness and winning.This is why it concerned all of

Like a neglectful dad returning from a multi-day session in the pub, Valve took off their well-worn belt to spank the coaches who just couldn’t keep their act straight in their absence. It’s not like they ever wanted to be a parent anyway, and the sad thing is that with no child support services in sight. ESIC, the malnourished watchdog kicked out to the curb just couldn’t do enough to make people play nice.Cheating was always worth it in CSThere’s always the iBUYPOWER-shaped elephant in the room when it comes

I put on my Oculus Quest a week ago. Here’s everything I’ve learnt since then.Beat Saber, a dance/exercise/lightsabre mashup, made this crystal clear to me.Firstly, I noticed a huge difference in engagement when I got my whole body involved in the game.I was definitely in flow while I was using just my arms to smash blocks in time to music.But when I loaded up Fitbeat, a workout focused, free in-game DLC, I had to get my legs and core really working too.As a result of getting my whole body in

It’s finally happened: both Sony and Microsoft have shown their hand. We now know what both the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X look like, what’s inside of them, and what kind of games they’ll have. So now’s as good at time as any to start properly comparing them, yeah? Both companies almost seem to be inviting the contrast, as they’re doing things very similarly and yet differently at the same time. While we’re still missing some details on both consoles — namely, the goddamned price, come on you two

VR is impressive to watch — but it is less impressive to purchaseMany people probably have experience of VR second-hand, rather than from the comfort of their own home. A casual demo in a gaming convention here, or a half hour spent on someone else’s setup there — the interest exists, but the demand does not.The titles already coming out for it are getting better and better, and have already contributed to a branch of Youtubers focusing on VR content.
