You might remember that a little while ago, Bethesda announced an auction which'd see the winner given the chance to design a character in The Elder Scrolls 6. Bids were donations to the charity Make-A-Wish, and narrowly missing out on top spot was one from the folks behind the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages, the series' long-running and very good independent wiki. The good news is that those folks how now met with Bethesda and had the chance to design their NPC, which'll be a memorial to a forum user whose roleplaying has crossed paths with official Elder Scrolls lore.

The code Bandai Namco were kind enough to send me for puzzle platformer Little Nightmares 3 included a swathe of bonus costumes resembling characters and monsters from the previous games. Another way to phrase this would be that, before I'd had a chance to get to know this game's duo of very brave, very doomed children, the game offered me a way to paint over their identities with something I recognised from a time I enjoyed myself in the past.

Hmmmmm, thought I. Then I thought it again. But longer.

2xko roster

2XKO's Ranked mode is the epitome of competition that you can expect from Riot's new fighting game.

Ranked is now live in early access after the game's launch on PC, and you can take part in it to prove your mettle. The Ranked ladder is divided into different ladders, and matches are based across tiers. This guide will explain the complete Ranked system to you.

All 2XKO Ranked system divisions

The ranked ladder in 2XKO is divided into ten different divisions. All divisions, barring Grandmaster and Master, have three tiers each.

  • Aspirant
  • Iron
  • Bronze
  • Silveer
  • Gold
  • Platinum
  • Emerald
  • Diamond
  • Master
  • Grandmaster
  • Challenger

Every player begins in Aspirant when they start playing 2XKO. This is the lowest division on the Ranked ladder, and matches are straightforward. The same also applies to Iron. If you know the very basics of fighting games, you should be able to get into Bronze.

Once you're in Bronze, you'll need to learn the combos and master them gradually. Matches from Platinum become really hard since you'll have to master the advanced mechanics. Of course, the difficulty rises slowly as you win more games and move up the ranks.

How to move up ranks in 2XKO

Your Ranked journey begins with five placement matches. The placement matches and your performance in them decide your starting division. Next, your task of moving up the rank begins. To move up a tier (not a division), you'll need to get 100 RP.

You get RP when you win a match. Similarly, you lose RP when you lose a match. Getting 100 RP is required to move up the tiers. Naturally, it's a lot easier to rank up when you're in the lower divisions. You'll come across better opponents at higher ranks, and the penalty for a loss is far more significant.

Bradley Barcola in EA FC 26 at the Parc de Princess

Ratings Reload is speculated to be the next promo for the FC 26 Ultimate Team, and it could be an exciting campaign for all.

When it goes live, the promo will debut on Ultimate Team. It will feature special cards of footballers who might have received lower ratings than the community had expected. So far, EA Sports has remained tight-lipped about the upcoming cards.

However, some interesting leaks have already appeared on social media.

FC 26 Ratings Reload players (leaks)

So far, we have already received a fair amount of leaks.

  • Julian Alvarez
  • Heung Min Son
  • Trinity Rodman
  • Michael Olise
  • Hugo Ekitike
  • Scott McTominay
  • Salma Paralluelo
  • Jonathan Bakayoko
  • Antoine Semenyo

It will be interesting to see if Ratings Reloaded will have one team or two. Additionally, we can expect more leaks to appear closer to the release date. More cards will also be added as SBCs and objectives, so make sure to be on the lookout for them.

FC 26 Ratings Reloaded release date

The Ratings Reloaded promo is expected to go live after the Cornerstones promo expires. If the rumors are true, it will go live on Friday, Oct. 10. The release, as always, should happen at 12pm CT (6pm BST).

Once added, you can find the cards in packs if you have the luck. You can also complete various objectives and SBCs to add the promo cards to your squad. Unlike pack items, you won't have to rely on luck to get these cards.

Vi landing a combo on Ekko in 2XKO

The Sidekick fuse in 2XKO is one of the most unique options you can enjoy while battling it out against your opponent.

Like all fuses, the Sidekick has its pros and cons. For starters, you can only use it when playing alone in a 1v1 situation. While the fuse limits certain functions and locks them out, you also get benefits in return.

How does the Sidekick fuse work in 2XKO

The Sidekick fuse, despite being fun to use, has certain stiff mechanics. In 2XKO, you're always fighting in duos (even when playing in 1v1). When you're playing alone, you control two characters. If you're using the Sidekick fuse, you can only control and use one character.

Your second character remains unavailable for you to use in the match.

  • They can use Assists (both Super Assist and Push Assist) and Break, pending your input of the correct controls.
  • They can't be included in any kind of tags.

Essentially, you can use your second character to support your primary, and even land a few Supers with the correct combos. However, you can't switch them with a tag and make them the active choice in a battle.

Additionally, Sidekick offers certain benefits to the character you can control in the match.

All Sidekick fuse benefits in 2XKO

As you can't use your second character, you'll get certain extra benefits from using Sidekick.

  • You'll have access to Fury Break from the beginning of the match. Fury Break is a more powerful version of Break and activates the Fury state for your character. If the enemy is stunned, Fury Break will result in a wall bounce, allowing you to land combos that would otherwise not be possible.
  • You get +20% max HP and absorb 25% less damage when your health falls below 500.
  • Start the round with 2 bars instead of 1. You can have a maximum of 5 bars at any given time.

Sidekick requires you to master the basics, as you'll be essentially playing with one character. Hence, you'll need to spend time with your mains to understand their strengths and weaknesses to get the most out of them in a battle.
