Pacers Eyeing Mike D Antoni As Replacement Coach After Firing Nate Mcmillan

The stunning move also comes just 14 days after the Pacers extended McMillan’s contract by one year through the 2021-22 season. McMillan spent four seasons in Indiana and led the Pacers to the playoffs in each of those campaigns, but the team failed to win a postseason series over that period.

Overwatch 2 Players Want More Changes Made To Sojourn

Following complaints about Sojourn being too powerful in Season 1, Blizzard looked to combat her effectiveness in the latest balance patch released at the beginning of Season 2. For example, the power of Sojourn’s Railgun was reduced with several nerfs, such as decreasing the secondary fire critical damage multiplier from 2 to 1.5. However, while the damage of the secondary fire was lessened, the overclock energy charge rate was increased by 20%, meaning that the character could use it more often when her Ultimate was active....

Overwatch Gets The Nes Treatment

New YouTube channel Rkade Soup decided to take Overwatch’s roster of memorable characters and locations, and reimagine them as an old-school Nintendo Entertainment System era co-op beat ’em up side-scroller. The result is a glorious 8-bit rendition of a series of fan favourite characters, such as Tracer, Junkrat, D.Va, Mercy and Roadhog, and all of them fight it out in a 2D interpretation of the game’s Hanamura level. The parody video ends on a humorous note with Genji taking on Mei, and suffice to say, the game’s unofficial ice-wielding troll character emerges victorious (with a little help from Widowmaker)....

Overwatch Players Crowdfund Cookies To Send To Blizzard

Called the “Blizzard Cookie Project,” a group of particularly thankful Overwatch players set out to crowdfund enough money to pay for the delicious treats. Around 100 people are developing the game, according to a recent post by Kaplan, and the cookies are estimated to cost around $2.50. 250 cookies should be enough, reckons the project’s organizer and so a $625 goal was set on the campaign’s Indiegogo page.
