On Friday the world lost an incredible person after Joe O'Brien, aka
@Spaarx_
, passed away in his sleep after a battle with cancer.
He was Dexerto's first-ever employee and one of the best to ever cover esports. This is my tribute to him.
Hasan getting cancelled because he’s bought a $3m house and people have deemed that too expensive because of his left leaning politics is peak woke culture.
This £60m, 4000 seater esports stadium has been announced in Dundee (Scotland).
I guess if huge tournaments can take place in random places like Katowice and Cluj-Napoca, they can in Dundee.
You can social distance playing games at LAN, each team and player could have their own setup and space. There is a risk during travel and logistics would suck for organisers, but for a $4m+ tournament that’s the staple of each year, CoD Champs shouldn’t be played online.

Weed industry is insane, one of the most exciting business ventures right now.
@Dexerto
Weed next up.
On what planet did any of the players think eRa could afford $5.5k a month EACH?!
Top tip, if the org's strategy is to mass follow/unfollow, don't join them.
The CoD Burner is literally just a rich guy who buys pro players drinks and meals at events, and in return gets info from them.
That's the secret. That's literally it.
Albert joined us after
@CouRageJD
said he was good people, and despite limited writing or esports experience, he’s become irreplaceable at Dexerto. Literally does the job of three people.
Gutted he’s leaving but so happy for him.

We shed a lot of light on running Dexerto, our philosophy and why there’s so many misinformed people in the esports space.
Looking for a gaming cheater who'd be willing to talk to me about why they do it. Ideally someone who's played a lot of Warzone. Anonymity guaranteed. Hit me up if you're willing to chat.
The notion that you should never work for free is bullshit. Sometimes it's exactly what you need to do.
The untold story of
@eMattCraig
becoming
@H3CZ
's videographer is a great example of that!
I just woke up and saw OpTic eliminated from champs. Mind blown.
I literally said this to my staff earlier today, round robin groups are actually the worst. No team should be eliminated on map win percentage. GSL groups >
Hell yeah, tomorrow I get to hang out with my favorite out of the

I’ll give you a clue, it’s not “Wipes while standing”

and it’s not “Fat Josh”

To solve the DLC being used in competitive headache, why not just have the maps available free to use in private lobbies, but have to pay to use in publics/ranked?
