How to pick the right bot for your server

Whether your server is work-related or you use it to keep up with your interests, it should always well-moderated. This makes for a safe environment for all members of your server. In many cases, a bot will be able to react to anyone going against server rules much faster than a single moderator. Discord bots that are used for moderating are, therefore, your best friends.

Discord bots you should try in your community server

Genji is a movement-heavy hero that comes in handy on control, push, and escort maps. Chances are, if you’re pushing a payload, you’ve been unexpectedly flanked by a Genji at least once or twice.

Genji is a great character for players wanting a lot of mobility who can play well with a team or in a 1v1 setting. With Genji’s damage output, he is a great choice for players, but his learning curve can be steep.

His wall-climbing ability and dash make him an excellent character to flank with, and his ability to deflect makes him a tough opponent, even for ranged characters like Ashe or Widomaker. Once you’re able to master his kit and learn when to deflect, you’ll be a strong contender for your team’s MVP. This article will help you take a closer look at Genji’s abilities to help you familiarize yourself with his kit.

Fire to throw an accurate burst of 3 projectiles. Alt-FIRE to throw a fan of 3 projectiles in an arc.

This is Genji’s primary weapon. It’s a projectile-based weapon that can deal a good bit of damage if you can manage a headshot. When you use the primary fire button, Genji will toss out three Shuriken in a row toward whatever you’re aiming at. Even if you miss the headshot, if you land all three strikes, you can still do some good damage to your opponent.

The further away Genji is from an opponent, the longer it will take for the hit to land. This makes it difficult to hit moving targets, so it will take some practice to get used to and, more easily, land shots. Due to this, it’s recommended to move in closer before striking.

If you struggle to land shots with your primary fire, try using the alternate fire method. In this method, Genji will toss a fan or Shuriken to hit a wider spread sort of like a shotgun.

Once you’re comfortable with this ability, you can pair it up with Genji’s dash strike, then fire again or melee for extra damage.





Deflect incoming projectiles in the direction you’re aiming and block melee attacks.

This ability is one of the strongest in his kit. When activated, Genji will hold up his dagger for a brief period, and any projectiles that land on him are reflected in whatever direction the player is aiming.

This can come in handy to reflect a wide variety of incoming attacks, even including Zarya’s and Pharah’s Ultimate Abilities. A well-timed deflect can cause your opponent’s shot to fly right back towards them and cause some unexpected damage.

This is especially handy against long-range characters. Since Genji’s Shuriken is best used in close-range combat, he can sometimes be at a disadvantage to characters sniping from far away. However, if you use Deflect and aim it well enough, you could potentially take out a sniper like Ashe or Widomaker with their own bullets. With this ability, it all comes down to timing.

Rapidly dash forward and inflict damage on enemies. Eliminations reset the cooldown.

Genji already has great mobility by default, but with Swift Strike, his mobility is taken to even greater heights. This ability can be used as an extra dash to get places quicker or to escape dicey situations.

Once activated, Genji will dash quickly in the direction players are aiming. He will cut through enemies and damage any that he connects with. If you know a nearby enemy has low health, this can be a great ability to use to guarantee elimination by quickly closing the gap between you and them while outputting damage.

If you manage to get a kill with Swift Strike, it will eliminate the cooldown, allowing you to chain together another swift strike or take an opponent down and escape before their team has time to retaliate.

This passive ability is the reason for Genji’s vast mobility. This allows him to double-jump and climb up walls and other surfaces. This allows Genji to get to places out of reach of other players easily. This gives him an advantage to flank opponents more easily or quickly escape danger.

Once this ability is activated, Genji transforms from a projectile-throwing hero to a katana-wielding melee attacker. The damage Genji can do while wielding his Dragon Blade, in combination with his gap-closing ability and his high mobility, can make this ultimate deadly to the opposing team.

Squishier players like healers and players who lack escape abilities or have low mobility are all at risk of falling to this ultimate. Genji could wipe out the entire opposing team with a well-timed ultimate.

Shuriken is better for close-range. If you’re having trouble landing a hit with your primary fire, try switching to an alternate fire like a shotgun to widen your spread.

Using your Shuriken, then Swift Strike followed by another Shuriken or melee attack can deal a devastating amount of damage

Deflect can be used to counter some ultimate abilities like Zarya, Pharah, or Roadhog. It can also be used as a defense against long-range opponents like Widowmaker or Ashe.

Swift Strike can be chained together if you get eliminations.

Cyber-Agility gives Genji impressive mobility. You can use this mobility to flank your opponents to catch them off guard.

Timing is key with Dragon Blade. This ultimate combined with Genji’s mobility has the potential to drop a whole team.

Genji is a great DPS to get to know. The learning curve may be steep, but the payoff could be worth it. He’s not invincible, but he is a good character for aggressive players, as his mobility can help him escape situations that would get other characters sent back to spawn.

Valorant continues to captivate players with its dynamic gameplay and strategic depth in the ever-evolving online gaming world. This first-person shooter game by Riot Games offers a unique twist to the genre, combining elements of precise shooting and strategic planning. To enhance the gaming experience, Riot Games introduced a new feature known as "Kingdom Credits," a currency system that allows players to unlock agents and other in-game goodies.

Kingdom Credits are a virtual currency introduced by Riot Games to expand the in-game economy of Valorant. These credits offer an alternative way for players to unlock agents, weapon skins, and other cosmetic items, offering an exciting new dimension to the Valorant experience. With Kingdom Credits, players can diversify their arsenal and personalize their agents, making each match unique and visually stunning.

Earning Kingdom Credits in Valorant is a goal that every dedicated player can achieve. Here are some ways to get these virtual riches:

: Participating in Valorant's Battle Pass is a fantastic way to earn Kingdom Credits. Players can accumulate points and unlock rewards by completing missions, including Kingdom Credits.

: Valorant features a set of daily missions that offer Kingdom Credits as rewards. These missions encourage players to log in regularly and complete specific tasks to earn credits. Daily missions are often quick and accessible, making them ideal for casual players to earn Kingdom Credits without a significant time commitment.

: You can earn Kingdom Points by merely playing the game. These points accumulate over time and can be converted into Kingdom Credits, making consistent gameplay a viable strategy for acquiring this currency. Kingdom Points can be earned by participating in matches and various in-game activities.

: Linking your Valorant account to Prime Gaming can yield Kingdom Credits. Riot Games occasionally partners with Prime Gaming to offer exclusive in-game rewards. Who knows, Riot may also add Kingdom Credits to Prime rewards.

Riot Games has implemented a daily limit on the number of Kingdom Credits that can be earned to maintain a fair and balanced in-game economy. Four checkpoints can be completed daily, each rewarding 150 credits per completion for 600 credits daily.

Other than daily missions, there is a general method of acquiring Kingdom Points as well, by playing normal modes:

Unrated, Competitive, Swiftplay, and Premierreward 10 Kingdom Credits per round played, and 20 Credits for every round won.

For Spike Rush, TDM, and Escalation, 20 Kingdom Credits will be rewarded after the match completion.

How to Unlock Agents with Kingdom Credits

Unlocking agents with Kingdom Credits is a straightforward process. Riot Games has designed this system to be user-friendly and accessible to all players. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use Kingdom Credits to unlock agents:

Open the Valorant client and navigate to the "Collection" tab.

Choose "Agents" from the available categories.

Browse through the agents and select the one you wish to unlock.

If you have enough Kingdom Credits, you will see the option to unlock the agent using this currency.

Confirm your selection, and the agent will become available for you to play.

However, newly released agents have four weeks before they can be obtained through kingdom points; this phase is called the Recruitment Event. During the 4-week event phase, the agents are only obtainable through Valorant Points or gaining 200,000 XP after activating the agent contract. After the event, the agents can be purchased for 8000 Kingdom credits. Previously released agents you don't have can be purchased without restrictions for 8000 Kingdom credits.

Beyond unlocking agents, Kingdom Credits allows players to engage with Valorant's rich cosmetic ecosystem. Weapon skins, cosmetic items, and player customization options are all accessible through Kingdom Credits.

Where can you spend Kingdom Credits in the game?

Now that you've amassed a stash of Kingdom Credits, you might wonder where to spend them. Fear not, for Valorant offers a multitude of options:

: If you want to add flair to your arsenal, Kingdom Credits can be used to purchase weapon skins. These skins change the appearance of your weapons and demonstrate your individuality in the game.

: Kingdom Credits can be used to acquire various cosmetic items such as gun buddies, sprays, and player cards. These items allow you to customize your in-game profile and show your unique style.

: Besides unlocking agents, Kingdom Credits can also be used to purchase Radiant Points, which can then be exchanged for premium items and skin variants in the Valorant store.

Kingdom Credits have added depth to Valorant's in-game economy, offering players a new and exciting way to enhance their gaming experience. Whether you're looking to unlock agents, customize your arsenal, or add a personal touch to your profile, Kingdom Credits provides the means. With various methods available to earn them, players can take full advantage of this virtual currency and elevate their Valorant journey.

In the world of gaming and esports, streaming on platforms like Twitch or YouTube has become a popular way to showcase your gameplay and build and connect with an audience. One of the ways to make your stream stand out and more aesthetically pleasing is by creating a unique Twitch overlay.

An overlay is a graphical frame that surrounds your gameplay screen, displaying information like your webcam feed, social media handles, and more. In this guide, we'll show you how to create your very own Twitch overlay using two user-friendly tools: Canva and Procreate.

If you're not already a Canva user, sign up for a free account at canva.com. Once you're signed in, you're ready to start designing your overlay.

On the top-right corner, start by selecting ‘

’. A common size for an overlay is 1920x1080 px, as it usually fits well with all Twitch resolutions.

Canva provides a wide variety of tools and design elements you can use to create your overlay. You can add shapes, images, text, and more. Here's a simple step-by-step process:

(For an easy overlay, search Twitch on the Design Templates tab to choose between multiple premade options both free and paid).

Background: Choose a background color or image that matches your stream's theme. You can choose a Canva template to use as a starting point or upload your own images and artworks.

Webcam Frame: Leave space for your webcam feed. You can also create a stylish frame around it using shapes and colors that match your overall design.

Text: Add your username, social media handles, or any other information you want to display on your overlay.

Borders and Accents: Spice up your overlay with decorative borders, icons, or other design elements that enhance your branding. Here’s where you can let your imagination fly and do whatever you like!

button and choose a high-resolution image format (PNG is what I normally use). Upload the overlay image to your preferred streaming software, such as OBS or Streamlabs. Position the overlay over your gameplay screen, making sure it doesn't cover essential parts of the game, and set up the camera and chat windows on the specified fields you left open for them.

Procreate: Crafting an Overlay for a Personal Touch

If you have an iPad with Procreate, open the app and create a new canvas with the same dimensions as before (1920x1080).

Procreate offers powerful drawing tools that let you create a custom overlay from scratch. The main advantage of Procreate over Canva is that here, you control everything, you have as much freedom as your imagination offers you. So, if you know the ins and outs of procreate and if you love drawing, give this option a go.

Background: Choose a background color or create a background image that matches your style.

Drawing: Use the drawing tools to craft shapes, borders, and other design elements. You can also import images and add them to your overlay (just like Canva design elements: just be sure to use free-to-use assets or paid or credit for the ones that require so).

Text: Add text for your username, social media links, or any other information you want to display.

Screen Area: Create a designated space for your webcam and gameplay feed. This could be a frame or an open area, depending on your preferences.

To use as an example, I painted a few bits over the previously designed Canva overlay:

But keep in mind that the main advantage of using Procreate is that you can do whatever you want; the sky is the limit.

Once your overlay is ready, export it as a high-resolution image file and follow the same steps as before in your streaming app.

Creating your own Twitch overlay is a fantastic way to showcase your personal style and engage your audience while streaming. Whether you choose Canva's user-friendly interface or Procreate's artistic freedom, these tools empower you to make your stream visually appealing.

Remember to keep your overlay easy to read, as it's essential for viewers from all around the world to understand the information you're displaying. Dive into the world of overlay design and make your Twitch stream truly your own!

Counter-Strike Global Offensive has been the most decadent professional esports scene throughout history. And if there's one thing that CSGO has consistently delivered to its dedicated fan base, it's heart-pounding, nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat moments that have fixed themselves into the records of esports history.

From jaw-dropping plays that defy physics to clutch victories snatched from the jaws of defeat, CSGO has given us some of the most electrifying moments in competitive gaming.

However, some moments are timeless and will always be great to look back at.

Imagine a single grenade having the power to redefine a pivotal moment in a match. Mikhail "Dosia" Stolyarov’s calculated brilliance shone through most explosively in the clash between Gambit and Immortals. With a masterful grenade toss that defied expectations, Dosia turned the tide of the battle, securing a crucial advantage for his team. This is a moment where strategy met chaos and gave birth to an unforgettable CSGO memory.

In a breathtaking twist of fate, Marcelo "coldzera" David leaps into action with a display of marksmanship that defies the laws of physics. Mid-air, he gracefully dispatches two opponents while jumping, leaving spectators and opponents alike in disbelief. This gravity-defying double kill becomes an emblem of Coldzera's skill and highlights the sheer unpredictability that makes CSGO so exciting.

To this day, CSGO fans remember this moment on Mirage as the most historic AWP play ever. While replicating it is a long shot, players do tip their heads to Coldzera each time they land a jumping no-scope.

Regarding CSGO legends, oleksandr “s1mple” kostyliev’s name is often at the forefront of the conversation. In a match against Fnatic, s1mple showcased his unmatched skill and versatility. Finding himself in a seemingly unwinnable 1v3 situation, s1mple pulled off a string of mind-boggling no-scopes, leaving the entire Fnatic roster in disbelief. This moment not only solidified s1mple's status as a CSGO icon but also left fans worldwide in awe of his unparalleled talent.

In a captivating showdown against Mousesports , Ladislav “Guardian” Kovács wielded the AWP like a shotgun, crafting a masterpiece with each shot fired. This display of precision and mastery underscored the instrumental role of skill and timing in CSGO.

With only three HP and three bullets to his name, the pressure is immense, but the Nicolai "dev1ce" Reedtz remains unshaken. With a resilience that borders on legendary, he orchestrates an extraordinary comeback, defying expectations and securing a triple kill that turns the tide of the match. This remarkable display of determination and skill embodies the essence of CSGO competition.

In the grand finals, where champions are made, Richard “Shox” Papillon steps onto the stage with nerves of steel. Twice in a row, he finds himself in nerve-wracking clutch situations, and twice in a row, he bought two lifelines for his team against Luminosity. Despite his efforts, his team lost the match, but his double clutches symbolize the mental fortitude and precision required to excel on the grandest stage of CSGO.

Vincent "Happy" Cervoni, armed with a deagle, becomes a maestro of fate. Against TSM, he choreographs an exquisite dance of headshots that left his opponents spinning. The arena reverberates with cheers as Happy's Deagle ace becomes etched in CSGO history, a testimony to the exhilarating power of individual skill and calculated instinct.

In a tense encounter against EnvyUs in the CSGO Major Cluj-Napoca, Håvard "rain" Nygaard finds himself in a seemingly impossible 1v5 situation. Yet, with a keen sense of game sense, he navigates the virtual battlefield with uncanny precision. His actions seem almost intuitive, as if he can anticipate the opponent's every move. This extraordinary display of game sense becomes a shining example of how intellect and intuition intertwine to create breathtaking moments in CSGO esports.

With every flick of the wrist, every perfectly timed shot, and every pulse-pounding clutch, these moments etch themselves into the collective memory of gamers and fans alike. They embody the heartbeat of competition and the unshakable will to triumph against all odds.

Best moments in CSGO esports history

When thinking about live-streaming, only one word comes into mind: Twitch! The platform has many full-time streamers who stream regularly. Typically, streamers on Twitch stream PC games, and there are very few mobile game streamers. So, Mobile Streamers would have a comparatively easier time to pop out and impress the target audience.

For those who don't know, Mobile streaming is the process of broadcasting your mobile gaming sessions live to an audience on platforms like Twitch. It's like inviting viewers to your virtual gaming den, allowing them to witness your every move, cheer for your victories, and share your epic moments. To get off on the right foot:

: Your mobile device is your trusty companion on this journey. Get one that can handle both the demands of gaming and streaming. Your primary requirements are a robust smartphone or tablet and a reliable internet connection. Typically, gamers opt for phones like Black Shark 5 Pro, IPhone 13+, Samsung Galaxy, and similar.

Older models may hinder gaming by reducing FPS, which would eventually lead to poor stream quality as well. So, make sure you invest on your phone device as generously as you would on a gaming PC.

: If you're new to Twitch, creating an account is your first step. Think of it as setting up your entertainment channel. The process of creating an account is straightforward to do. Once you're done creating your account, fill in the basic details, and you're good to go. Make sure to enable two-factor authorization on sign-ins to ensure the security of your account.

Now, with your account and device setup, you're ready to move towards the next steps of mobile game streaming; let's explore your avenues:

: Download the Twitch App on your device; the Twitch mobile app offers a direct and accessible way to start streaming. It enables you to share your gaming adventures from your mobile device itself. This option is especially great for those who value convenience and simplicity.

: We also recommend streaming through the Streamlabs app. It is available on the Apps Store and Google Play Store for free. To stream through the App, log in with your Twitch account. After you log in, you will see the stream icon in the upper right corner of your screen. Select that option, and your gameplay will be automatically recorded; after that, tap on the start button to go live.

Now, let's look into the process of streaming your mobile games using the Twitch app:

: Open the Twitch app, locate the camera icon, and select "Stream." Grant the App necessary permissions (camera, microphone, etc.) to ensure a seamless streaming experience.

: Choose the game you want to share and select the appropriate capture source. A captivating overlay can add a personal touch to your stream. Adding a face-cam to your stream will help you form a sense of connection with your viewers, allowing them to connect with you on a more personal level.

: As you immerse yourself in gameplay, keep an eye on the chat. Engage with your audience by responding to their comments and questions. A lively chat adds an interactive element to your stream and encourages viewers to stick around.

: Consider enhancing your streaming setup for a more polished and professional approach. A good quality microphone ensures your commentary is crisp and clear, while a high-resolution camera lets viewers connect with your expressions in real time.

For those looking to take their streaming game up a notch, consider screen mirroring your mobile device to your PC:

: Connect your mobile device to your PC using USB debugging or a reputable screen mirroring app. This opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to harness the power of your computer for an enhanced streaming experience.

: Open Broadcast Software (OBS) is your gateway to PC-based streaming. Configure OBS to capture your mirrored mobile screen, and feel free to experiment with overlays, transitions, and other creative elements to make your stream stand out.

Streaming mobile games via computer can have many advantages. It will allow you to make changes to the overall look of your stream seamlessly.

As you get on your mobile game streaming journey, remember that every successful streamer started with a single stream. Keep refining your approach, engaging with your audience, and, most importantly, having a blast. Your streaming adventure has officially begun, and who knows where it might lead?

Eye strain is common among serial gamers who spend too long in front of the screen. Here are five ways to protect your precious eyesight while you embark on your gaming quests!


Gaming has become more than a time-killing activity. It’s a source of income for many, but it comes with its share of perils.


While playing high-definition games that require focus, your eyes work tirelessly to process vibrant colors, rapid movements, and mesmerizing graphics. But this marathon of visual processing can exhaust your eyes, leading to Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) - a fancy term that means your eyes are not having as much fun as you are.


So, how do you recognize this sneaky foe? Symptoms of eye strain include dry, itchy eyes, headaches, blurred vision, and even neck and shoulder pain. But, it’s possible to avoid these symptoms by being a little more careful.

Before we delve into our remedies, let's take a moment to understand the dreaded Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) better. It's not just a name; it's the enemy you must defeat to level up your gaming performance while keeping your eyes safe and sound.


Computer Vision Syndrome occurs due to prolonged screen time, from gaming and staring at computers, phones, and tablets. A combination of factors, including poor lighting, improper viewing distances, and not taking regular breaks, can wreak havoc on your eyes. You don't want your eyes to feel like they've been through a gauntlet, right?

5 Ways to Prevent Eye Strain While Gaming

Here are five magical ways to protect your eyesight while gaming so that you can continue your epic adventures without any optical hindrance:

: To combat eye strain, follow the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and focus on an object at least 20 feet away. This technique allows your eyes to relax, reducing strain and fatigue. Embrace these mini-breaks to recharge and refresh your eyes, making your gaming sessions more comfortable.

: Proper lighting is crucial for eye comfort during gaming. Avoid harsh glares and opt for ambient lighting that complements your screen's brightness. This adjustment will reduce eye strain caused by the stark contrast between the screen and surroundings. A well-lit environment ensures your eyes remain at ease as you explore virtual worlds.

: Gaming glasses, the modern-day armor for your eyes, are designed to combat the adverse effects of digital screens. These specialized glasses reduce glare and block harmful blue light emitted by screens. Protecting your eyes from these potential hazards can prevent eye strain and keep your vision healthy in the long run.

: Your gaming setup matters more than you think. Ensure your monitor is at eye level, allowing you to maintain a neutral head position while playing. Adjust the angle and height to avoid awkward posture, reducing strain on your neck and shoulders. A comfortable setup enhances not only your gaming experience but also your overall well-being.

: Engaging in intense gaming moments often leads to reduced blinking, leaving your eyes dry and uncomfortable. Consciously blink at regular intervals as if giving your eyes a refreshing break. This simple act helps maintain proper eye moisture, preventing discomfort and fatigue.


By embracing these five eye-saving strategies, you'll improve your gaming experience while safeguarding your eyesight.

When it comes to eye protection during gaming, investing in the right gear can significantly reduce eye strain and promote long-term eye health. Here are some recommended gear options to consider:

: Specialized gaming glasses, also known as blue light-blocking glasses, are designed to filter out harmful blue light emitted by screens. They help reduce eye strain, improve contrast, and minimize glare. Look for glasses with proven blue light-blocking technology and a comfortable fit for extended gaming sessions.

: These protective filters can be applied directly to your gaming monitor or screen. They work by reducing reflections and glare, which can cause eye discomfort during gaming. Anti-glare screen protectors are available for various monitor sizes and are easy to install.

: A monitor stand with adjustable height and tilt options allows you to position your screen at an optimal angle, reducing the strain on your neck and eyes. Keeping the monitor at eye level helps maintain a more natural and comfortable viewing position.

: Bias lighting involves placing LED light strips behind your gaming monitor. This setup creates a soft glow around the edges of the screen, reducing the contrast between the bright monitor and the dark room. As a result, your eyes experience less strain, especially during nighttime gaming.

: Some gaming monitors have a low blue light mode or flicker-free technology. These features help reduce blue light emission and minimize flickering, which can contribute to eye fatigue.

: Artificial tears or lubricating eye drops can relieve dryness and discomfort during gaming. They help keep your eyes moisturized and refreshed, especially when you tend to blink less while focusing on the screen.

Using the right gear can significantly enhance your eye protection efforts during gaming. Choose equipment that fits your needs, preferences, and budget, and prioritize your eye health to ensure enjoyable and comfortable gaming experiences in the long run.
