If you are going to follow an influencer in to a crypt0/N-FT game please go in knowing you are not going to make money, and know that they are being paid to promote these games. Had to try weird spelling to deal with the bots trying to sell me this 🤣

Five years ago today, Blizzard shut down the competitive @BlizzHeroes scene with an email to orgs, players, and even employees working on the game itself. Without warning, dozens lost their jobs. This was the beginning of OG Blizzard's downward spiral. Long live the #HGC.

I don't know how, at this point, you can still think FaZe doesn't have a massive culture problem. They are (allegedly) paying this streamer $1 million a year, that's a lot for bad takes.

They should leave little children alone. That’s the real issue.

Hard to feel bad for a team that was gifted a Super Bowl
4 years ago today, the #Saints suffered the biggest non-call in playoff history on the NFC Championship. #Rams CB Nickell Robey-Coleman committed unpenalized DPI on WR Tommylee Lewis near the end of regulation. The Rams went on to win 26-23 in overtime.

A follow-up message from Riot Brightmoon and Riot Meddler on behalf of the League team. We know we failed to deliver some stuff that really matters to you folks. We want to share some thoughts and talk about how we're working to do better.
