Valorant: The Champions Tour Wraps, Off-Season Roster Moves Begin

This past week marked the end of the Valorant Champions Tour 2024, where we saw intense battles and unexpected outcomes across all regions.

Fans are buzzing about potential pickups and drops, as rosters shake up for what’s looking like a big year in 2025.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III Season Launch

With the launch of Modern Warfare III, the Call of Duty League (CDL) is about to heat up. Season Kickoff is just around the corner, and we’re already seeing shifts in strategies and load-outs as pros dig into the new mechanics and maps. Last week’s show matches gave us a taste of what’s to come, with some exciting performances and intense action from CDL’s top teams. Let’s just say this season will definitely separate the contenders from the pretenders.

League of Legends: Worlds Semifinals Ramp Up the Intensity

In League of Legends, Worlds has been an absolute rollercoaster, especially with the semifinals bringing us some of the fiercest matches yet. Regional pride is on the line as top seeds from around the globe fight for their spot in the finals. The big story this week is the showdown between the Korean and Chinese giants, who have each brought their A-game. The meta has evolved fast in Worlds, with some surprise picks and strategies catching teams off-guard. It’s anyone’s game at this point, and we’re all here for the action.

Rocket League: Fall Major Kicks Off

Rocket League fans, get ready. The Fall Major is live, bringing us fast-paced, high-flying action from the best in the world. Some fan-favorite squads look stronger than ever, while dark horses are showing they’re here to compete. With some incredible goals and nail-biting overtimes, this Major is proving why Rocket League is one of the most exciting esports to watch. Eyes are on the top seeds, but this Major could have a few surprises in store.
