DRX Topples T1 To Win the 2022 ‘League of Legends’ World Championship
The finals of League of Legends‘ 2022 world championships went down in San Fransisco last night, and DRX pulled off a shocking upset of fellow South Korean squad and three-time Worlds champion T1 — dethroning them 3-2 to take home the trophy in a victory that the venue announcers described as the culmination of a “miracle run.” Over the course of the five-game match, viewed by thousands in person and, per a report from Esports Charts, a high of 5,031,323 digital viewers (sans Chinese viewing platforms), the crowd’s support swung from T1 — the winningest organization in League of Legends history with star midlaner “Faker,” arguably the game’s most well-known player — to underdog DRX, with “DRX” cheers breaking out in the arena over the course of the match. After the clash was over, players ...
90% of GameFi projects are ruining the industry’s reputation
The GameFi industry is set to unleash its massive potential within the next six years. According to Absolute Reports data, its estimated value will grow to $2.8 billion by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate of 20.4% in the same period. It’s a quieter and perhaps less scandalous branch compared to the more newsworthy centralized finance (CeFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi) spaces, but this hasn’t impacted its force nor its promise. Even in the depth of a bear market, crypto gaming has proven to be the most resilient compared to other market sectors. However, there is a problem with the GameFi industry: The difference in quality between teaser trailers and delivered products is often stark enough to get under the skin of the eager gamers who put their faith in them. As that be...
Check Out This Fan-made ‘Yu-Gi-Oh!’ 3D Projection System
Yu-Gi-Oh! is one of the most popular trading card games ever created, but many fans have always wanted to make the game even better by seeing their duel monsters come to life just like in the manga/anime. Setting out to make this dream a reality, YouTube channel SuperZouloux created a 3D stereoscopic projection system that does just that. Taking seven months to complete, the SuperZouloux created a game mat that can recognize a pre-set of cards and enters inputs into an application. The application offers a 3D model representation of card artwork and controls camera movement to express attack sequences and tracking/recording duels. It is interesting to note, along with creating the mat and 3D modeling each card from scratch, SuperZouloux also had to implant a special chip on each of the 3,6...
