Vainglory Game Review
Hello and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about my thoughts on a free mobile MOBA game called Vainglory. I think this game is very good and is growing in popularity, though you have probably never heard of it before. This game is free-to-play on almost any device you have, except windows phones. I would recommend this game to anybody who has some free time on their hands, as each session can last over 15 minutes and if you do not want the steep learning curve of a normal MOBA. What do I mean, well, most MOBA's require you to learn all of the abilities of a character and how to maximize them to be good, but not in Vainglory, where there are only three moves and a basic attack, and a very easy item system to learn. To start, I would recommend trying out many heroes and trying to find a goal, like getting a new hero, or unlocking a new skin. It is not the easiest to get the hang of and can take a while to train your fingers to play the game properly, but it is fun when you play with friends and allies. The new guild and team system add a lot to the game, first off, they allow an easier method of making friends and there are rewards for leveling up your guild and you can have a lot more fun if you know that you are helping your entire guild when you play. Over all I would rate this game 9/10. It could just appeal to me, being a very competitive person and liking when I win, but I think others would enjoy other aspects of the game too. That is all for this week, thank you for reading my blog and have a good week.

Happy Thanksgiving!!! Trove Tips and Tricks
Hello, and welcome back to my blog. This week I will be talking about some tips and tricks in this new game that I am playing called Trove. I mentioned this game in last weeks blog and you can get it for free on Steam (a seller of many games). Trove is a game based on numbers, like the amount of damage you do, or the perks your items give you, and to raise those numbers, you have to get to higher levels. I will be talking about how to raise those levels and to get the currency of your choice.
1) One way of raising your character level is to just run around and kill everything you see and to kill everything in the dungeons you go into to get more experience. Also aim for more of the bigger dungeons because they contain 2 small bosses and a big boss to give massive experience points.
2) One easy way to get a decent amount of Glim (type of resource) in a decent amount of time is to get on your mount and spend some time running over plants and other things that you can run break like that. You will get 1 Glim for every plant. I do recommend getting a faster mount to be more efficient.
3)Another way to get Glim or Flux is to go mining. This is something anybody can do, you just have to find a random cave and run into it and start mining all the ores you can see. The most common and easy to sell is Shapestone, which I usually sell 200 Shapestone for 500 flux, but you can also sell it for Glim. I do recommend crafting a lot of bombs and running with a group of willing friends.
4) Once you get to mastery rank 10, you can access the player marketplace (applies to #3) and use it to trade your items. If you have a lot of Flux or Glim for whatever reason, you can buy allies to increase your mastery level by 10 points at a time (100 points to level it up). You absolutely have to put on the "Hide Collected" filter to make sure that you buy something that you don't already have, because you can turn those into mastery points.
That is all for this week, have fun raising those levels and Happy Thanksgiving, until next time.

Top 3 Free Games
Hello, and welcome back to my blog, today I will be talking about three free games that you have most likely not heard of. This is based on my opinion and my opinion alone, put your list in the comments if you would like.
1) Trove: This game consists of a very open world and graphics that you can relate to Minecraft's pixel-like style. I recently started to play this game and so far I am really enjoying its vast crafting system and item drops. It is also really fun to just run around doing whatever you want to do. I would recommend this game to a group of friends because it is much more fun to play with friends than just by yourself.
2) Vainglory: This is a mobile app made by 'Super Evil Megacorp'. It is a MOBA, which means that it is a player versus player arena with turrets and minions and a jungle. The best part of this game to me is how easy it is to learn the game and get good at it. unlike some other MOBAs that require months of work just to figure out how to do the basics. I also really like the good people in the community and the hard-working developers that make sure that everything is fair. Games take up to 20 minutes, and that is very rare. I would recommend that you do have a team of people that you like to play with, because some character combinations can be hard to work with.
3) Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft: This is a card game that is both on computer and on your mobile device. This game takes place in the World of Warcraft themed area, where most of the cards have to do with other games the creators (Blizzard) have made. This game does consume a lot of time and energy from making your perfect deck to researching the best card combos to figuring out what is your best move to make. This game does have a pretty steep learning curve that might take a while and a lot of patience to master. I would recommend this game to anyone who likes to do things slowly and methodically. This is not really a game you can play with friends, but I still do enjoy it.
That is all for this week, thanks for reading and I hope you have a great week!

Assassins Creed: Syndicate Review
Hello and welcome back to my blog. Today I will be doing a game review on Assassins Creed: Syndicate. I personally really do like the game and think it was worth the money. There are a few bugs and glitches here and there, and only one serious one I found after many hours of playing, that glitch happens when you are trying to get an enemy into a carriage, but they all of a sudden disappear. The one way I found to solve this is by aiming something at them and they will magically reappear. The game over all is very well done, the only problems I have is that the most time I spent playing was running or driving to missions and objectives. This is a result from the massive world. They tried to speed up those times by adding horse-driven cars and trains, which were fast, but it still took a while to get to places. The story is also very strong and made me question if I was really doing the right thing after being tricked into doing the wrong thing twice. I think the double-character system worked out great except that they were very much alike and I would like to have had them have a very different style and each have a completely different set of skills rather than just three or four skills that make them any different from each other. I really enjoyed taking down the final boss, mainly because he was so full of himself and pushed us off as some nobodies who could do no harm to his "well-oiled machine" and it felt good when I finally had him getting upset because I defeated one of his henchman. I think it was worth the time and the money the game took up and was very interesting when it came to the story outside of the simulation with the weird ancient computer lady and her story. Over all I would recommend this game if you don't mind being pulled off track by an enemy caravan or a thief and likes open worlds. That is all for this week, hope you have a good day/night. Thank you for reading and goodbye!

Expanding
Hello and welcome back, this week will be a ll about expanding the areas in which I blog. I have decided to start talking about new things, but will stay as close to gaming as possible. These new topics will include top 5's, stories and maybe some game reviews. This week I would like to talk about the top 3 games that are coming up that I am excited for.
1. Tom Clancy's: The Division has been on my mind ever since the premiere at E3 2013. This game, after several release date delays is finally coming out in May of 2016. This game will take place in a post-apocalyptic New York and you will be playing as agents for the government to control and survive in the epidemic plagued world with your friends. The game is set somewhere in the future where drones are optimized for battle and where you have many gadgets and tech to take down enemies. There are two zones to the game, the social zone, where there is no player versus player combat, and the dark zone, where there is no protection, but it is filled with loot that you will need to grow and survive. You can go in with a team, or by yourself, but the loot you find in the dark zone will be lost if you die, but you can get your gear out by calling in a helicopter. This is a risky move because every other player on the server will be able to see that you are trying to extract loot and will try to come and take it from you before the 90 second timer is done to extract you and the loot. You could also leave manually, but you would have to travel to the border first. This game is run on an exp basis and you will level up and unlock new things as you keep playing. I am very excited to play this game with friends and have a lot of fun
2. Star Wars: Battlefront (3) is another game that I am exited for. I did play the open beta and it was amazing. There was long-ranged open battlefields and confined tunnels that was only wide enough for one person to run through. There were only 2 game modes available during the beta, walker assault, where the rebels try to take down two walkers before they destroy the power generators on the planet Hoth, as the imperials try to defend them until they get there. The second game mode was a capture the flag style battle which was placed on a tiny map with little cover and places to hide. The main objective was t capture more supply pods than the other team. There are far too many more game modes in the main game to list, but there are a lot of them and I am very excited to play them all.
3.Horizon: Zero Dawn is a game set in the future where our world was struck by an unknown darkness and humanity was no longer the dominant species, but were replaced by machines that resembled animals. You are a female warrior of a tribe of people trying to survive in these harsh conditions. The story is still very mysterious and unclear, but I will try my best to try and explain all I know. So, there are many tribes that have all migrated to one area, some were weak and small, and others were powerful and might, and your tribe was said to be the first to get there and take up arms against the mechanical beasts that roam the land. The tribesman do not seem to have advanced weaponry, like guns or bombs, but use modified arrows that would electrify the target or explode on impact, or are just regular. This is an open world game that is coming out sometime in 2016, but the whole game is very mysterious and is going to be a blast exploring and figuring out what has happened to this world and solving the mysteries of the machines and so much more. Well, that's all for this week and comment what games you are excited for. See you next week and thanks for reading.

The Maps That I Like to Play On
Welcome back to my blog, this week I will be talking about all of the maps I like to play on. The first map is mirage. The reason that I like this map is probably because of all of the spots that I can hide in and the narrow tunnels. I like narrow tunnels because they give me an advantage on the CT side, because they can only come from certain paths and there are not very much.
The second map I like to play on is inferno. This is my favorite map because of all the places you can jump and go under and sneak around. I love to hide somewhere absolutely ridiculous and see of the enemy team can find me before I find them. I usually die as soon as they get near me, but it is still worth the effort. I also like that it is so short ranged and the only place for me to instantly die by a sniper is through the middle of the map.
The third map that I like to play on is overpass. This map I am very new to, but I still like the exploration and finding new ways to hide and new places to watch. I like how open the areas are except for the tunnels getting into the areas and that there are so many ways to go to get to where you want to go. I also like how much is going on in the background outside of the map that makes it feel really alive.
The fourth map I like to play on is cobblestone. I am also very new to this map and have no idea what the call outs are, but it is fun having good people help me out. I also like how mysterious it is being set in an old castle with knights armor. It is also very fun when I get lost trying to find my way to the objective and my teammates have to come and find me to keep me from getting killed.
The final map that I like to play on is Dust 2. The main reason I like this map is because I know it so well and I can probably draw a map just from memory. The other reason is I like to try to come up with new crazy strategies that people would never think of even trying. The next reason is because of how many places you can snipe from on both sides. That concludes this weeks blog, try to find things you like about the maps you play and put them in the comments. Thanks for reading and see you next week.

My Lodout and Play-Style
Welcome back, today I will be talking about how I play CSGO and the weapons that I use. I would like to start out by saying all of the weapons I use. On the terrorist side, I like to use the tec-9, and on the Counter Terrorist side, I like to use the five-seven. These contribute to my run-and-gun play-style, which requires a lot of bullets and not too much skill. I also like to use the m4a4 on the Counter Terrorist side, mainly because of how many bullets it has rather than the m4a1s, which does not have a lot of bullets.
As I mentioned before, I have a run-and-gun play-style. This means that I like to move around a lot and not stop very much to aim better. The reason behind this is, I don't want to get shot. Other than that, it gives me more time to shoot at the other person while they are trying to keep up with my body. The one thing I need to improve about this strategy is I have to get better at stopping very abruptly to take shots, and keep on moving. This strategy has worked out well for me as I think I am about to rank-up to Master Guardian because I have won the last three games because of rushing in and killing them before they even have the time to aim at me.
The only time I feel really awkward in a fight is mid-ranged fights, I either want them really far away or right next to me, but nowhere in between. The only way to combat this awkwardness is to run away or run closer, which isn't easy if you don't have something you can run and shoot with. I find that it is easiest to hide in that situation and wait for them to get closer, and spray them down. That is all for this week, there will be more of this nonsense every week at around this time. Comment if you have any ideas, because I am running out of them. Have a great week!

Top 5 People I like in CSGO
Today I will be talking about the top five people that I like in CSGO. This is a follow-up to last week's, where I talked about the worst people in CS. The first one is the guy that is really casual and you can tell is just playing the game for fun. An example of this is when my team and I were about to win 16-8, but my teammate throws a grenade at the bomb defuser and knifes him in the back. He started laughing and when we questioned why, he said that we were having too much fun and needed to play another round. That game was also my well deserved rank-up game into Gold Nova Master.
The second person is the leader. This is the guy that always knows what to do and usually orchestrates all of the simultaneous attacks that you will do. These guys need to have a supporting team that follows his command, which is not a very common thing you can find while playing with random people.
The third is the enthusiastic one. These are the guys that just want to keep the team moral high and keep everybody feeling good and confident even though your team is losing by a landslide. I am usually this role as I like to have fun and keep people from bickering among each other. This is not always the easy role to play because sometimes people will come after you and be mean to you, which sucks.
The fourth is the smurf/de-ranker (someone who goes down a few ranks so that he can play with less skilled individuals. These players are only good if they are on my team, because they will destroy me and my team with ease. These players you come across very little and would like to friend if you can. They are also usually fun to be around because they try less and have more fun taking the craziest shots and having fun messing with the other team.
The fifth is the people who give others advice or tips that would help everybody. These could include showing them new hiding spots, or new places that you should smoke etc... These people can often be smurfs or someone like one, who came from a higher ranking. These people have contributed much of my knowledge of how to play the game properly and how to get better to their level of play. Over all, everybody on this list should be acknowledged for what they have done to "gamerkind" (made up word), so if you still are in contact with one, or more, then give them a thank you and a happy birthday. Even if it is not there birthday. That is all for this week, hope you have enjoyed and leave a comment of what you want me to make next week. GOLD NOVA MASTER HYPE!

5 Types of People I Hate in CSGO
Hi, welcome back to my blog where I talk about things I feel like talking about. Today, I will be talking about five types of people I absolutely despise about CSGO. The first thing is smurfs, smurfs are a rare breed of players who like to dress up as a lower rank than they actually are and prey on the weak for game or sport. Now, these people can either be the best thing ever, or be absolutely terrible. If they are on your team, it is an easy victory, but if their not, you will want to throw your computer out a window and smash your face into a wall. The reason their called smurfs?... I have no idea what it is,but go look it up.
The second thing is the trolls, these people are evil people who like to make everyone on your team lose. They usually come in pairs to avoid being kicked off, so people usually resort to killing them. These people usually talk to you in an aggressive style and make fun of you even though they are doing the worst, the best way to fight them is to not fight them at all and mute their microphones. Then, you can communicate properly with your team and have a fun game without them.
The third thing is the people who go away from their keyboard, or AFK. These people you have no idea what are doing because they join the game and go do something else right after they joined and it is annoying. There is no way to fight them and you just have to sit there and ask yourself... WHY?!?!??
The fourth thing is the people who trash talk you despite them being on the same team as you, and you are doing better than them. These people are relentless and make up any excuse to prove that they are not as bad as the scoreboard says they are, even though they are probably worse. The best way to fight these guys is also just to mute them and not say anything or try to do anything, because once you do they will report you for doing the slightest of things to annoy them.
The last person, and by far the most annoying is the hacker. These people you don't see very often and still wish you saw them less. These people use cheats to higher their rank or make themselves look good. There are two kinds of hackers, those who are sneaky about it and try not to be caught, and there are those that don't care if you know they are cheating and go crazy with all kinds of aim assist and vision assist.
That is all for this week, I will be back next week with some more bloggerism (made up word). Post a comment if you have any requests or questions.

Weekend Recap
Hello, today I would like to tell tales of a weekend so full of epic moments that one could not bare for it to be over, but I cant. Sorry... what I can do is tell of a good weekend full of laughs and victories, well, mostly. I cant remember everything that happened to me these past two days, but I can tell of two amazing events that both happened to me when I was using sniper rifles. The first was an epic four kill spree I got when I was holding B bombsite on the map Dust Two with a SSG-08, a sniper rifle that is a two-shot body shot and a one-shot head shot. The first thing that happened was a glorious jump-shot that struck one of the armed attackers down because of a teammate who rushed from lower tunnels and injured him. The next shot I took injured one of the invaders, but did not kill him and he rushed onto site and I struck him down with a mighty running shot to the head with a P250, a high caliber pistol with low ammo and high damage. Then I jump shot once more over the box that kept me out of being shot at from the enemies with guns, BIG guns, I of course killed him instantly with a shot to the head because I am just so majestic. Then the last guy inside of the tunnels tried to run at me guns blazing to escape my comrade pushing in from behind him and made a dire mistake of running into my bullet and took a bullet to the face for it to end the best I will ever do with a scout for the rest of my life, until, of course, I do something even better. Note: this all happened in a matter of fifteen seconds.
The next thing that happened to me was slightly less impressive, but with the help of a good team and fantastic callouts of where the enemies were I was able to end up with an ace with and AWP on mirage. An AWP is a very high powered sniper rifle that is capable of destroying and enemy with a body-shot or do a devastating 80% of their life with a shot to the leg. Now, I don't use the AWP very often because I normally suck with it, but every few game a become a majestic god that can never be stopped. This time I decided to peak middle and get an easy kill off of the guy that thought the coast was clear, on the contrary, it was just the opposite because of my fat blobiness of awesome that blocked the way. Along with that kill came a few running to A bombsite trying to kill all of my friends, I first saved one of my teammates from death by eliminating the guy right next to him with a quickscope that immediately put the Terrorist down. The next kill came from somebody trying to shoot at me from palace, he missed his shot, I think because I flashed him, but I don't remember, and killed him with a flick shot from my almighty wrists of steel. I now saw a guy jumping from tetris to stairs straight tow where jungle is and more importantly, where I am, I take a quick crouch and shot him square in the face as he is running and shooting in my direction. My team then calls that the bomb is at B bombsite along with the carrier. My teammate goes down and run into market and catch the guy trying to plant in the middle of sight and I take my time to make sure that he gets shot in the face and doesn't even have a chance to fight back. Then my team calls that the last guy is middle as my last team member dies. Its all me now, I am the last one alive and I need to win this round, so I decide to do what any great hero would do and hide in a tight corner by arches and kat walk. Then my team, who has far better headsets than I do says that he hears the footsteps of the enemy kat walk and I look there and crouch. Then a few seconds later he comes around the corner and I headshot him in the brain and get the ace, or five kills. That is all for this week, again, if you have anything you would like for me to talk about, just say so. On another not, I have finally ranked up to Gold Nova Three after a long time of winning and losing. See you next week, on CS Derp.

Smoke Spots
(WARNING: Must know most call outs to understand any of what I am saying.) Hello, today I will be talking about smoke spots that I like to use on the maps I like to play. These maps are dust 2, mirage, inferno, and cache. I would like to start by talking about smoke spots on dust 2 for the Terrorist side. Today I will only be talking about dust 2.
The first one I like to use a lot is to smoke of CT spawn from long, which can help if the CT's rotate from B bombsite. You do this by running and throwing near the bottom of the red sign. {http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198083590032/screenshots/?appid=0&sort=newestfirst&browsefilter=myfiles&view=imagewall (screenshot of where to aim, copy and paste into new browser)}
The next one I would like to show you is to smoke off middle to get through kat walk without being killed by the person mid. First, you want to stand on the bigger grass spot right outside of long,{http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198083590032/screenshots/} then you want to aim at the longest pole sticking out of the top of the building next to long doors,{http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198083590032/screenshots/} then it will smoke off mid for you.
Another spot is in B tunnels and is a one-way smoke, meaning that you can see through it, but someone on the other side cant see you. First you need to get behind the pillar on the left side and aim at the shadow that is on the boxes closest to the entry tunnel to B bombsite. Then you can crouch on the left side of the opening and see through it.{http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198083590032/screenshots/}
The last spot I want to show for the Terrorist side is on kat and is another one-way smoke. First you have to go on kat and go to the bricks on the right side of the stairs on your way to A bombsite. You want to crouch in the corner of the bricks that is touching the wall. {http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/613970284055743715/6140D89ABEF4AFFF8EC960914D96167DE0B4A84F/} Then you want to aim at where the panes cross in the middle/top window straight in front of you. {http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=526164263}
Then you can crouch on the opposite side of the bricks to see through onto connector area.
Now I would like to talk about some CT side smokes. One of them is to smoke off middle so that the t-sided players cannot see you go to B bombsite. This one is simple, because you just have to run and bounce it off of the box that is right next to CT spawn.

Another one I like to use is a one-way smoke for A bombsite, where you can watch long. First you have to get on to A bombsite and aim at the big A on the site. Then you want to right and left-click together and toss it. Then you have to go to the box on the base of A ramp and crouch on the side touching the wall. {http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=526175430}
That is all for today, I hope I was helpful today and sorry if I was boring. There will be more every week, if anybody has any suggestions to what I should blog about next, please tell me.

Welcome to CS Derp
Hello, welcome to my blog. This blog will be about Counter Strike: Global Offensive (I will refer to it as CS or CSGO), a first person shooter that I like to play a lot with my friends. First I would like to describe what CS is. Counter Strike is a game made by valve in 2012 and is the second most played game in the world. It includes many users and game modes for all of the users to play on. There is also a growing market for items in CS, such as weapon skins that make your weapons look cooler, or stickers that you can attach to your weapon, mostly for pride.
Like I said, there are many game modes for people to play, such as arms race, where you win by getting a kill with the golden knife after you progress by getting a kill with each gun. The main game mode is the competitive mode, where it is two teams of five, the counter terrorists and the terrorists. The goal of the counter-terrorists, or "CT"'s, is to stop the terrorists, or "T"'s, from planting a bomb on either of two sites, eliminate the "T" team, wait out the clock, or defuse the bomb. The goal of the "T"'s is to plant the bomb and defend it, or to eliminate the "CT" team. The first one to sixteen rounds wins, and if both teams get 15, the game is tied.
Now I will describe what I will be talking about on this blog. I will be talking about strategies that I like to use on certain maps, stories and funny moments from games that I have played, smoke spots that I have found (mainly online), and spots to hide and such. I do play a lot of this game, but still am not good, as I am a Gold Nova Two, which is not that great a rank.
Like I said I am a Gold Nova Two, which is not that great and I would like to talk about what ranks there are. There are a lot of ranks, there are split up into groups for the most part. These groups are silvers, (one, two, three, elite, elite master), then there is gold nova (one, two, three, master), then master guardian (one, two, elite, and distinguished), eagle (legendary, legendary master), supreme master first class, and the best of all is global elite. That is all for this week, I will be posting at least one of these every week on one of the earlier mentioned topics. See you next week...
