JR PACE | Northwestern | DS | #13 | Sr | 6006 | 210 | College Park, GA | Woodward AcademyOverview: The three-year starter at safety, Pace was deployed in a versatile role, often rotating post-snap. He played in deep zones primarily, including single high and two high looks and saw occasional reps in the slot. During his time at Northwestern, Pace repeatedly put his ability to locate and come down with the football on display, catching eight career interceptions. Despite having prototypical size, he plays conservatively in run support and is not a reliable tackler because of his lack of physicality. He is just an average athlete for his size and does not possess enough range to reliably cover a half field in the NFL. A lack of twitch and sudden movement skills limits his man coverage ability. Pace projects as a camp safety who will likely have to fight for a spot on a practice squad. Despite his size and production, he does not offer the traits required to grade out as a draftable player.Background: Raised in Atlanta, Georgia. Three-star recruit according to 247Sports. Major is unknown. Academic standout. Played in 12 games as a freshman. Started all 14 games…

During a recent Twitch broadcast, popular streamer TimtheTitman suggests that he isn't even allowed to play games with Dr Disrespect off-stream. Guy "Dr Disrespect" Beahm was banned from Twitch last year and many fans are still questioning why. Some of Beahm's friends and former colleagues want to play games with him, but apparently, that may be more difficult than fans think. On April 14, popular Twitch streamer TimtheTatman was discussing the Dr Disrespect ban when a fan asked whether or not he's considered gaming with the Doc off-stream. TimtheTatman shocked his audience when he revealed that there are complications preventing him from playing games with Dr Disrespect, even when he isn't broadcasting. When the Dr Disrespect issue was brought up in Twitch chat, TimtheTatman emotionally rolled his eyes and said "I don't think I can. Stupid." TimtheTatman didn't confirm why he doesn't believe he can play games with Doc off-stream, but it may be due to Twitch rules for partnered streamers. Beyond simply being former colleagues, Dr Disrespect and TimtheTatman are friends that are still in contact with each other despite the complications. Dr Disrespect has been streaming exclusively on YouTube since his Twitch ban, and he insists that he doesn't know why he was…

Steph “FerociouslySteph” Loehr has been on the Twitch Safety Advisory Council since day one. Twitch announced the eight-member group on May 14th, 2020, and spent the next few days clarifying what exactly it would do. The advisors would offer insight regarding moderation policies and harassment on the site, but they wouldn’t have the power to change rules, arbitrate specific cases or represent Twitch publicly.Meanwhile, Loehr, a trans woman, was targeted in a coordinated harassment campaign led by Twitch fans who didn’t like the idea of a Safety Advisory Council, regardless of what it would actually accomplish. Loehr became the de facto face of the council and her streams were inundated with cruelty, transphobia and death threats. She was doxxed and she feared for her life daily. She had to move. She stopped streaming for a while.“Twitch has not done enough to protect me in the slightest,” Loehr said.Even as a member of the Safety Advisory Council, Loehr has felt like she’s on her own with the death threats, bigotry and vitriol spewing out of Twitch. She may have the company’s ear, but this relationship hasn’t given her any extra tools to combat harassment on the platform.So, she created her own.Peer2Peer.Live…

The first Dota 2 major of the season, the Singapore Major has just concluded, and to much surprise, the winners were Invictus Gaming (IG) from the Chinese Dota 2 region.DPC season 1 wasn't without its surprises when we saw a mid Omniknight, and a 5 core line-up from OG, Artour "Arteezy" Babaev being the farming simulator he likes being, and the Chinese teams perfecting the carry IO which OG.ana had first shown.Where to watch Dota 2 live DPC Season 2Dota 2's Majors are generally streamed on both YouTube and Twitch, but since DPC is not an official tournament, but a qualifier, it is generally streamed on twitch. An enthusiast can watch it in game if they want to, in the watch section of the main menu as well.If watched on twitch, the experience is more of an audience, where the Dota 2 casters show the most impotant part of the map, where fights are taking place, or where-ever some beautiful plays are being initiated by any team.However, if watched in the in-game Dota-TV, it provides a more unfiltered experience of the game, where the viewer is free to watch the game of Dota 2 from the perspective of any particular…

Twitch streamer Ludwig Ahgren has set the world record for receiving the highest number of Twitch subscribers of all time — beating the pervious one set by Tyler “Ninja” Blevins, which was 269,155 subscribers. In the afternoon of April 13, Ahgren exceeded 270,000 subscribers, with the number still climbing at the time of publication. The achievement comes on the heels of a 30-day long “sub-athon,” where for each subscriber Ahgren received, he extended the length of his stream by ten seconds. In the end, he received enough subs to keep the marathon going for 30 days straight, during which he streamed night and day. Although the subs continued to pour in, Ahgren announced on April 11 that the event would be coming to an end on April 13 at 9 p.m. PDT. To cap off the stream, he planned something special: For every sub he got that day, he would match it with a $5 donation that would go to either to St. Jude Children’s Hospital or the Animal Humane Society. This got the subs going up high enough to push Ahgren over the world record, which he had slowly approached throughout the course of the month. The lead-up to…
