Steam random CD keys - worth it?

Steam offers a random steam game for only 1.50$. is it worth it? 

1.50$. this is the worth of the random steam game. you cant get those pretty quickly, but what you get in return?

The valueMost of the times, you get a 1$ game from steam. those are mostly old 2d indie games.
Seldom, you can get a 10$ steam game, but these is really rare.
If you like mystery and indie games, it maybe be a perfect match for you.

The chancesThere is 95% to get a 1$ game. 4.20% to get a 5$ game and 0.80% to get a 10$ + game.
The chance of hitting a AAA game is 0.001%.
Of course the number of keys you'll need to buy before getting a certain game tier may vary up and down by your luck. 

Let's talk numbers
For an opportunity to win a 5$ game you'll need to buy at least 25 CD keys(!!).
1.50 x 25 = 37.50$!
Thats a lot of money.
For 9975 soul gems you can get AAA games from G2A!(such as Overwatch, Gta v and a lot more...)

But, that's only the beginning.
You want a 10$ game? the chances are 0.80%.
that's at least 100 cd keys!
150$! that is a lot. 

So, why is that availble?I'm not saying that is completely useless.
What im trying to say here, is that its not for everyone.
So,for who is that can be suitable? this reward is for who wants to expand their steam library and for who that enjoys indie game.
If you want a specific game, it is better for you to buy it specifically from Steam. 

There is something better!
There is another option for who wants a mystery game.
You can buy a "premium random steam CD key" for 5$ soul gems.
This random key will give you a much more valuable game.(around 10$)
Personally, i've got 2 games from the simple ones, and 1 premium game.I have got the games "CMD 2048" and "Othello 2018" from the simple ones.
From the premium i've got the game "Brutal legend" its a really nice game that cost 10$.

The best times to buy a keyFrom time to time, Steam is discounting the price of the keys. those are usually from 2%-10% off.
The lowest that Steam has discounted was 30% off.

Redeeming your prizeAfter you got your key, do the following:1.Open steam.
2.Click on the plus button in the bottom-left.
3.Click "Activate a product on Steam".
4.Click "Agree".
5.Enter your code and download your game.
6.Enjoy your game!I don't want this game what can i do?

Don't like the game? you can do nothing with it, unless you have access to the steam marketplace.
If you have access to Steam marketplace, try to sell it. most of the times nobody will buy it, but you may get some cash out of it.


To finish, if you want a specific game, then buy the game.If you want a random indie game buy the simple key.If you want a random quality game, buy the premium key.

How to start Overwatch

Writer: Ilay David Almalem

This is the last overwatch article we'll post this month 

Overwatch is an online hero-based game, you'll need to set some things up before you start to play.

This is the ultimate beginners guide on how to start overwatch!

Starting Overwatch? before you get into your first game, here's a full guide of the game that will guide you and help you set up your game.

Chapter 1: The opening screen.When you'll first get into the game, you might want to set up some things.
First of all, get into the training window and go to the practice range. adjust your sensitivity until you feel comfortable with it.



Chapter 2: Selecting your mainSo, now you are ready for battle!
Go to quickplay and queue for a game.
The game will send you to a "Skirmish", this is a pre-game lobby. you can play around until joining a match.
Found a game? Good! Let's Start! in your first game, you may choose a hero that you think will match you.
Play some games, find the hero you did well with.
Train with this hero and get to know his abilities and mechanics.
Know your role, if you picked a support hero, don't try to be DPS.
 Chapter 3: Getting betterIn this point, you need to know at least one hero you're good with.
Now, play 10 matches with this hero.
Liked him? He's you're main.
Didn't liked him? try another hero.
After you found your main, get to level 5.

Chapter 4: The Placements
After you reach level 5, you unlock competitive play.
The competitive play is a ranked game system.
To start playing the competitive play you need to play 10 placement matches. those matches will decide which tier you gonna play in. it will also define your SR(Skill Rating). 

The tiers are:

Bronze: 0 - 1500 SR this is the basic tier.
Silver: 1500 - 2000.
Gold - 2000 - 2500.
Platinum - 2500 - 3000.
Diamond - 3000 - 3500.
Master - 3500-4000.
Grand Master - 4000+.
Top 500: The 500 highest SR players in your region and platform.
 
You'll have to do the placement matches each season.

Chapter 5: The Cosmetic Mania*note: cosmetic items don't give you advantages over other players.*
There are a ton of cosmetic items in Overwatch.
Regular cosmetic items can be purchased with tokens or can be unlocked when opening loot boxes.
So how do I get tokens? tokens can be obtained only from loot boxes.
And how do I get loot boxes? when you level up you get one, you can purchase them, when endorsement leveling up or when an event starts.

Chapter 6: EventsThe events are special times when blizzard publishes new skins and special game modes.
Event cosmetics cost 3 times more credits.
When an event starts, you will get a free loot box of this event.



Chapter 7: Be nice!Remember to always be nice, don't be toxic, cooperate with your teammates, if you have a microphone, use it! switch heroes if your team needs it- nothing would happen if you don't play with your main! remember- its just a game!
Be a good teammate!





And that's all for now, have fun!      

Overwatch competitive guide

The first post here is going to be about Overwatch competitive system.
Writer: Ilay David Almalem.

After you reach level 5 in Overwatch, you'll unlock an option to play a new mode. "Competitive play".
This article will describe and tell you anything you need to know before you start to play.

So, you reached level 5 in Overwatch.
Aside of the free loot box you get, you unlock "Competitive play". 
Competitive play is a ranked game system. 
The lowest rank is "Bronze" and the highest one is "Grandmaster", the 500 highest ranked players are in a different tier called "Top 500".

The "SR":The "SR" means skill rating.You gain SR when you win games, according to your performance and medals that game.
It goes from 0 - 4000+. Your SR indicates your skill, and it will define in which tier you're going to play.




The tiers:
your tier is defined by your SR.Bronze: 0 - 1500 SR.Silver: 1500 - 2000.
Gold - 2000 - 2500.
Platinum - 2500 - 3000.
Diamond - 3000 - 3500.
Master - 3500-4000.
Grand Master - 4000+.
Top 500: The 500 highest SR players in your region and platform.

The seasons: Every two months, the season will reset. You'll need to play 10 placement games to be ready to play competitive games.
After you finished all your placement games you get an SR ranking and you will be placed in a tier.
Your SR will be affected by how well you did in your placements(and your previous season end stats), Play your best!
Every season you'll get rewards by participating. 

Elo Hell: This title may a little bit terrify you, but don't worry, it happens in every game with a ranked system.
Elo hell is usually the lower ranks, in Overwatch case its Bronze and Gold. those ranks are super hard to climb from them to higher ranks.
Why? Players in this tiers are usually new players, they may stick to only one hero and will refuse to switch. they don't really like to co-operate with anybody. some of them may be thinking that they are super pros, and will try to do a team kill alone while playing Ana.
So,how to get out of those ranks? Find a friend or two to play with you.(If they are in higher rank then you, you might be queued with higher-ranked players.) 
Don't have friends? totally fine. there are a lot of websites who can find you friend for gaming together. 
If you have a microphone, Use it!

Important things to remember:
1.Play for fun. Its only a game! 2. Never leave a game early! you will lose 50 SR no matter what and get a temporary ban.
3. Be a nice teammate!
4. Don't be toxic!
5. Do what your team needs, not what you want.
6. Main at least 2 characters from EACH CATEGORY.7. Never get angry, everything takes time and practice.
8. Don't play when angry.

My Mains:

I personally main:
Tanks: D.va, Orisa.
Damage: Hanzo, Solider 76, McCree.
Support: Ana, Zenyatta, Baptiste.

Now, go play your placement matches, HAVE FUN!
