The battle royale-style game was launched by more than 500,000 spectators on Twitch and has always been close to the top ever since. According to Mediatonic, more than 1.5 million new players joined the promotion in the first 24 hours of the game.

This huge number of players in such a short time seems to have caused some unexpected server problems, as players have reported interruptions and disconnection issues from its full version.

Undoubtedly, there is no doubt that the game has been a convincing success and seems to be becoming a fun alternative to the competitive gaming community.

A powerful explosion has hit the Lebanese capital, Beirut, causing widespread damage and injuring many people, officials say.

It is not yet clear what caused the explosion in the city’s port area. The online video showed a large cloud of mushrooms and destroyed buildings.

Hospitals are considered overwhelmed by the victims.

A delicate moment comes with the country’s economic collapse, which repeats the old tensions.

Tensions are far ahead of the 2005 trial for the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. A United Nations court is expected to deliver its verdict at a hearing against four suspects in the Hariri car bomb murder on Friday.

Lebanese Health Minister Hamad Hassan spoke of the many injuries and major damage.

The Reuters news agency cites sources that 10 corpses were pulled from the wreck.

The cause of the explosion is not yet known, but some reports suggest it may have been an accident. The Lebanese National News Agency reported a fire that broke out in a so-called explosive depot port.

Local media have shown that people are trapped under the rubble. A witness described the first explosion as deafening. The footage showed destroyed cars and destroyed buildings.

The latest reports come from political tensions in Lebanon, street demonstrations against the government managing the worst economic crisis since the 1975-1990 civil war.

Tensions were also on the border with Israel, which said last week that it had thwarted Hezbollah’s attempt to infiltrate Israeli territory.

I saw the fire, but I still didn’t know there was going to be an explosion. We went in. Suddenly I lost my hearing because I was obviously too close. I lost my hearing for a few seconds, I knew something was wrong.

And then suddenly the glass shattered all over the car, the machines around us, the shops, the shops, the buildings. Only glass that descends from the whole building.

Literally all over Beirut, people were calling each other from miles from different areas and experiencing the same thing: broken glass, shaking buildings, a loud explosion.

In fact, we were shocked, because usually when that happens, only one area will experience these events after the explosion, but this time it was all of Beirut, even areas outside Beirut.

Shock and anxiety

By Sebastian Ushers, BBC Arab Affairs Analyst

Videos and images not only of the huge cloud of smoke exploding in Beirut, but also of the devastation and devastation it has done for miles, have sparked a new wave of shock and unrest in Lebanon, which is already staggering on the verge of threatening. catastrophic economic collapse.

A few hours before the explosion, anti-government protesters had torn themselves with security forces outside the energy ministry, once again calling for the leaders to take responsibility.

There are strong warnings on the streets of a resurgence of famine or conflict in the sectarian sector if the economy deteriorates.

And the explosion will remind many of the bomb in which Rafik Hariri was killed. The Lebanese hope that this latest explosion will remain a human tragedy – an accident – rather than a deliberate action.

What is the Hariri case about?

On the morning of 14 February 2005, Rafik Hariri, the then Member of Parliament who joined the parliamentary opposition, marched when an explosion exploded into a crowded area full of hotels and banks, causing extensive damage.

Hariri was one of Lebanon’s most prominent Sunni politicians and, at the time of his death, had joined Syria’s requests to withdraw troops that had been in Lebanon since the 1976 civil war.

The assassination took tens of thousands of protesters to the streets to protest against the Syrian proclamation government, killing with a finger of guilt the assassination of Lebanon’s very influential neighbor.

Within two weeks, the government resigned, and a few weeks later, Syria withdrew.

Following the gathering of evidence, the United Nations and Lebanon set up a special Lebanese tribunal (STL) in The Hague in 2007 to investigate the bombing, and eventually indicted four suspects in the Iranian-backed Hezbollah-backed terrorist group and assassinations. and attempted murder.

In 2016, the fifth man involved in the attack, Hezbollah’s military commander Mustafa Amine Badreddine, was killed in Syria.

The purchase of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson from the XFL is a source of excitement. At least he’s infinitely more interesting than an anonymous hedge fund manager emerging as the new face of the Spring Football League bankruptcy. But Johnson’s power off the field won’t mean much if the XFL can’t find better talent. Low-scoring games and sloppy play will continue to repel the masses no matter who sits in the league’s executive suite.

Johnson leads a group that agreed to buy the XFL for $ 15 million, according to a press release. His investors include his ex-wife and business partner, Dany García, as well as RedBird Capital Partners. The XFL filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 13, citing the financial difficulties of the coronavirus pandemic.

Vince McMahon’s revival of the XFL was supposed to be different from the league’s failure in an inaugural season in 2001. The WWE president says he invested $ 200 million in the revived league, signing the first Commissioner Oliver Luck for a huge $ 35 million contract and for filling the league office with seasoned executives.

The hype was accomplished in Week 1. The XFL was an instant hit for the audience in Week 1, drawing an average of 3.1 million viewers for its four games; but for week three, it averaged 1.61 million viewers per contest. In other words, the league lost half of its audience in two weeks. Starting in week 5, the last week before the coronavirus pandemic forced the successful league to suspend operations, each XFL game drew around 1.5 million viewers.

Despite our nation’s insatiable appetite for soccer, the professional spring leagues have largely failed. American Alliance Football was also an early success in the ranking, but it only fell eight weeks after its first campaign.

The XFL introduced many groundbreaking concepts into its shows, including an exciting kick-off rule that required the kicker to kick the ball in the air and in-between the 20-yard line and the end zone, while having the cover team line up on the 35-yard return line and the return team line up on the 30-yard line. This ensured that the kickoff would be a competitive game and minimized the risk of high-speed collisions. The league broadcasts also included my players and coaches.

But these innovations were not enough to outshine boring football. In five weeks, teams averaged just 20.5 points per game, with 12 of 20 contests below the projected total points. The average completion rate among quarterbacks was 58.6%, and only two pass shooters reached double-digit numbers in touchdowns.

Johnson was an electric wrestling character, energizing exhausted crowds with his increasing microphone command. Although he was initially reserved as a heel, the crowd clung to him and propelled him to the rank of superstar. “The Rock” brought WWE to the end of the successful Attitude era and to the new millennium. Today, Johnson is one of the most successful action movie stars in Hollywood.

In his statement announcing the purchase of the XFL, Johnson says he intends to apply his successes in the entertainment world to the once upstart and now bankrupt football league. “With pride and gratitude for everything I’ve built with my own hands, I plan to apply these tripe to the XFL and can’t wait to create something special for players, fans and everyone involved. for the love of soccer, “he said, through ESPN.

As the coronavirus pandemic has wreaked havoc on our country’s economy, the XFL appears to be well positioned to transition to a bubble concept for the 2021 season, if necessary. MLB and NBA are watching their TV ratings soar when a nation trapped at home for five straight months is desperately seeking new entertainment options. But the MLB and NBA are also the best baseball and basketball leagues in the world, respectively. The XFL, or any spring soccer league, is inherently second-rate, and has no built-in fan traditions.

However, the initial success of the XFL ranking shows interest in a second soccer league. ESPN’s Kevin Seifert reports that the league plans to pursue younger, more dynamic quarterbacks in 2021, instead of throwing relatively large sums at longtime NFL endorsements like Landry Jones and Matt McGloin, who failed last season. The best quarterback in the XFL was P.J. Walker, a former Indianapolis Colts quarterback coach who threw for 1,338 yards and 15 touchdowns in five games.

Walker is now with the Carolina Panthers. In total, nearly three dozen players have signed contracts with NFL teams.

Even if the XFL bounces back in a second season, these numbers show that it will still be difficult for the league to maintain and recruit talent. But with a better game and better talent, the XFL can develop a brand beyond its owner, be it McMahon or Johnson.

Right now, “The Rock” is the XFL draw. But if the league succeeds under his leadership, he will take a back seat and the players will take center stage. This is the only hope.
