Just another few Fortnite wins, this time we got 3 in a row in squads. Mango’s been a great addition to the team, and it’s nice not only duoing with Sprinkle! Feel free to hit me up at Rzaney if you guys want to play some time!

Yeah, the games are at least a month old, I’ve been having some issues lately with my computer not being able to record well, and my internet while at University is awful, so no streaming then! Still, fun time to be had in Fortnite, and you’ll get to see Sam’s ultimate betrayal! I finally headed home so I can upload a video for once~

Hey guys, back with another Vindictus post. If you ever decide to play, once you hit level 90, you get access to a place called “Ein Lacher”, which pits you 1v1 against the game’s bosses at a reasonable challenge. It’s a great place to learn your character once you start getting into the late game without any of the pressure from elitist players, and you get honor medals to trade for seals of bravery, progressing you further into the game(my review).
This fight is for a dragon you fight earlier in the game with up to 4 people, which used to be one of the harder season 1 raids before everything got nerfed to streamline newer players to late game. As always, thanks for watching, and remember to like, favorite, and subscribe for more!
Hey guys, like I said I’m turning more towards making this a more casual blog, and when I feel like it, there’ll be an eSports post. There’s just a lot more content to draw from for casual gameplay than competitive gameplay, but mostly it’ll be me posting videos. Here’s a Miramar win with some interesting circumstances with Sam and my brother playing with us. As always, thanks for watching and remember to like, favorite, and subscribe if you’d like more, and tune in to my Twitch at Twitch.tv/Rzaney if you feel like watching some games live!

Hey guys, it’s been a rough past few weeks, but finals are coming to a close, and everything else can be focused on a bit more. Recently, our Overwatch team, Boosted Animals, which won Season 3s division 2 finals for the Overwatch University League (OWUL) got picked up by a friend of mine’s budding eSports organization, Illuzion Gaming. He’ll help make sure we’re on track and deal with all the technical stuff, and we finished our tryouts for new subs, with a few promising candidates. Make sure to follow along with us at Ulfsark, Fanout, Rzaney Gaming, Jerry23dr, etc.
Make sure to keep an eye out for us. I know we’re not quite a Tier 2 team, but we’re doing our best to improve!
Hey guys, this is the first advanced eSports blog post, and it’s gonna be a video I put together for you all. Crosshair placement is one of the most important aiming practices you can do, but very few people know how to practice effectively. Here I give a full comprehensive guide for any aspiring players to improve their aim, which can be applied to any and all shooters. Next time on the advanced eSports section, I’ll talk about aiming angles and how to utilize them effectively. Enjoy!
Now that we’ve narrowed down what to focus on, it’s time to put it to use! There are three main points you should focus on if you’re interested in starting an eSport:
1.) Find a character/weapon/play-style you enjoy!
When you start your game, you’re going to need something to keep you there. Some people pick a specific character they like to main, others pick a specific roles or character archetype. Figure out the style you enjoy most, and just play the game. Don’t fret too much about the competitive aspects when you first start. Many games even prevent you from playing the ranked modes until a certain point (level 30 in League, 25 in OW, etc.). Play for fun and get a feel for the game itself. It’s no good to play a game competitively if you don’t enjoy it, or you’ll be hard-pressed to maintain your practice regimens. In this way, be casual about your game to get a feel for it. Throughout my eSports time, I’ve never had a game click instantly that I told myself: I want to play this competitively. By playing it for fun early on, you’ll have a strong foundational knowledge of the game’s core mechanics, roles, positions, etc. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t pick it up quick. Learning takes time, but if a game is fun, you’ll hardly notice it!
When it comes to any sort of competitive hobby, it’s not enough to just grind out games through quantity. You NEED to practice effectively, or you won’t make any progress at all. If you have no idea what to work on, there’s no way to improve. This fact is true of any and every eSport, and this conversation happens at every level of gameplay. Read the rest of this entry »
With season 3 of Overwatch’s University League(OWUL) wrapped up, I wanted to share the Video on Demand(VoD) of one of our players’ perspectives. He’s the only one with a good enough computer + internet to record our games for later usage, but you’ll get the whole competitive experience from a Damage Per Second(DPS) player’s perspective. You’ll hear me with the nasally voice playing primarily D Va and Zarya as our team’s off-tank player. Our team’s the Boosted Animals (an in-house joke from one of our discord servers), facing against Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s(RPI) team.
You can check out the OWUL’s website here if you’re interested in trying out or making your own team and you think you’ve got what it takes.
With Worlds 2017 wrapped up(no spoilers! Here’s the start of the opening ceremony before the games), it’s time to talk League of Legends. Recently, my friend group and I have gotten back into League of Legends. We’ve certainly played League off and on since we all stopped playing it competitively as a five man ranked team 3 years ago, however, with one of our newer members starting to learn League, we’ve dived back in head first. As with Minecraft, I’ve decided that if I ever got back into League I’d play it for the purely casual aspects of it, enjoying the experience and avoiding unnecessary stress from trying to climb on the ranked ladder. As a result, it’s been a much more enjoyable experience, and our skill from playing competitively before has stuck around through thick and thin, albeit a bit rough nowadays.
