Is NIKKE More RNG Than Strategy? A Look at Luck vs Planning

by

In NIKKE, the chances of getting a powerful SSR character are quite low, at just 4%. Of that 4%, getting a specific featured character is even rarer, with a 2% chance. Standard characters have a 1.5% chance, and the most sought-after Pilgrim characters only appear 0.5% of the time. The game has a ‘spark’ system where collecting 200 Gold Mileage Tickets (or spending 60,000 gems) guarantees you’ll get a featured SSR.

The Major Shake-Up: How Counter-Strike 2’s Economy Changes Are Redefining Professional Play

by

Recent updates to Counter-Strike 2 have sparked debate, mainly due to Valve lowering the maximum loss bonus from $3,400 to $3,100 and also reducing the price of some weapons. While it seems like these changes might cancel each other out, the actual effect is quite different. Players are now often required to save their money more often, making the game’s economy harsher. A poorly timed attempt to buy weapons with limited funds can now lead to three rounds of being unable to afford equipment, instead of the previous two.
