Whether you are running around the tight corridors of Dust II or securing the bomb site on Inferno, every CS player knows that focus, adrenaline, strategy, and of course, skins, are the keys to winning the game.
Of course, using a unique skin like m4a4 howl is a surefire way to take your gameplay to the next level. However, you can also boost your morale and the quality of your game with the right soundtrack. Hey, music is more than an accompaniment to dancing; it is imperative to your gaming experience. Here is your ultimate playlist, which will keep you awake, full of energy, and pumping.
Preparation is a crucial step, and creating the appropriate mental environment before you even begin can have a great impact on your game. To get in the zone and get ready for the competition, you want tracks that are not too intense but rather immersive so you can tune into the tactical mindset.
During high-tension rounds where every second counts, you’ll want something that keeps your adrenaline pumping and your reactions lightning-fast. High-energy tracks can push you to maintain peak alertness and agility.
Nothing feels better than winning a crucial round or the entire match. Celebrate these moments with tracks that enhance the euphoria and satisfaction of a game well played.
At the end of each match, whether it is a win or a loss, cooling down is a must. You want to lower your heart rate and calm your mind to reflect on the game and de-stress.
Music can affect our emotions and behavior. Customizing your music for each part of your gaming period will improve your experience and boost your productivity. Keep in mind that the right track at the right time is what will transform a good player into an excellent one. Hence, get in, game on, and let the beats lead you to the first position in Counter-Strike!
The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other. The backbone of what we do is list-related, so this results in a long push to revise what we already have; specifically, now with our Football and Basketball Lists.
At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the first ten of the 2024 Football List, which you can comment on and vote on:
The new top ten:
*Denotes first year of eligibility
Rankings are impacted annually based on your comments and votes.
Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football and basketball lists.
At UFC 301, we learned that Mauricio “Shogun” Rua will enter the UFC Hall of Fame on June 27 as part of the Pioneer Wing.
A legend in Brazilian MMA, Rua cut his teeth in Pride before debuting at UFC 76 where he lost to Forrest Griffin. He responded with TKO wins over Mark Coleman and Chuck Liddell, and after a loss to Lyoto Machida for the UFC Light Heavyweight Title, would beat Machida for the strap. He lost that championship to Jon Jones, and completed his career with a 27-14-1 record.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Shogun Rua for his impending honor.
1960 PRELIMINARY RESULTS:
Thank you to all of you who have participated in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project. If you are unaware of what that is, we acted as if the PFHOF had its first class in January 1946.
We have completed the first 14 years thus far.
For “1960,” a Preliminary Vote with close to 130 players whose playing career ended by 1952. We are also following the structure in that players have 20 years of eligibility, and if they do not make it into the Hall, they are relegated to the Senior Pool.
Each voter was asked to select 25 names from the preliminary list, and the top 25 vote-getters were named Semi-Finalists.
A week later, the voters will be asked to pick 15 names from the 25 Semi-Finalists, and next after, they will pick five from the remaining 15. We will continue this process weekly until we catch up to the current year.
Please note that a significant change occurred “years ago”, allowing voters to submit less than the allotted spots.
