Well folks, it’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for. One year. Two major tournaments. More than 10,000 teams watered down to just 16. It has all come down to this, the top dogs of the Valorant esports scene battling it out to be crowned the first ever Valorant Champion. Here, we find three Southeast Asian (SEA) teams – Thailand’s X10 CRIT and FULL SENSE and the Philippines' Team Secret – amongst the best of the best, and we couldn't be prouder. But...we can’t help but wonder: what ARE their chances in this global tournament, full of hungry, hungry competitors?
Team Secret (TS) came into the Wild Rift Horizon Cup as the 2nd seed from Southeast Asia’s SEA Championship. Yet, it was TS that ousted their demons of SBTC Esports in a convincing 3-0 series to obtain a Top 4 finish at the International Tournament.

The conclusion of MPL ID S8 is not the end of the story. Not long after ONIC beat RRQ in a very tense series, one of ONIC’s boys’, Kiboy had his Instagram account vanish.

We ranked the worst three Worlds songs and now, it is time for the best three. Choosing the bottom three was tough, but choosing the top three was so. much. harder. It just goes to show how brilliant Worlds songs are, and boy, do these three make us want to rise up like a phoenix and burn it all down after listening to them.
This year’s League of Legends World Championship AKA Worlds may be over, but we KNOW you are still bopping your heads to this year’s anthem, Burn It All Down. We don’t blame you, it IS lit (pun intended). While it is no hot take that Worlds songs are all top-tier, we just can’t help but notice that some are better – or worse than others. So we took it upon ourselves to do the dirty work and rank the three worst Worlds songs here. Please kindly lower your pitchforks, we can explain.
Arcane was on the way, and as is Riot tradition, they were about to market the hell out of it, and with leaks of Fortnite and PUBG doing collabs with the upcoming Netflix show, I knew Runeterra was in for a massive treat as well.
The Horizon Cup is on the horizon. While I let that pun sink in a bit, it doesn’t detract from the fact that 10 of the best esports teams from across the globe will battle it out for supremacy at the Suntec Convention and Exhibition Centre in Singapore from Nov 13-21. While this isn’t Wild Rift Worlds per se, it gets pretty darn close to one.
Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) are one of the hottest new trends in the gaming world and rapidly rising in popularity for two main reasons. Firstly, this is due to the evolution of financial mechanisms in games. Secondly, users are revelling in the fact that they can earn through gaming, because what’s better than being able to make money while having fun, right?
