Genshin Impact leaks never stop coming and they usually start appearing a lot when a major version is about to end. HoYoverse is wrapping up Genshin Impact 4.1 as the date and time of Version 4.2 Livestream has been announced. We already have lots of info about the characters and banners until Genshin Impact 4.4; however, a recent leak shines the spotlight on a few upcoming characters, their rarity, and potential banners until version 4.7.

Character Banner Leaks Until Genshin Impact 4.7

According to Uncle SH, a very reliable leaker in the Genshin community, Genshin Impact 4.4 will feature Cloud Retainer (as we already know), 4.5 will feature Chiori, Arlecchino in 4.6, and Clorinde and Sigewinne may show up in version 4.7. Info about 4.8 is still unknown, and since we earlier learned that HoYoverse will be trying to wrap up the Fontaine saga sooner, it may be possible that we won’t see version 4.8.

The 4.5 banner conflicts with what Uncle SH said earlier, i.e., Chiori will be a 4 star and Sigewinne will appear in 4.5. Hence, take these leaks with a grain of salt as Genshin Impact 4.5 is still far, far away. More information should unfold in the future.

World Quest Boss

A Fontaine boss has been leaked and the image looks like it’s taken from the cut scene. This quest will be a follow-up of the events in the Narzissenkreuz quest series and the boss that we’ll be fighting at the end is probably *spoiler alert, Rene.

Genshin Impact Navia Leaks

Genshin Impact 4.3 will most likely feature Navia, the boss of Spina Di Rosula. She’s a 5-star Geo DPS character that, according to the latest leaks, scales off of Crit values and has a high base Attack. There’s also a new artifact domain coming that features artifacts that give wielders Attack percentage and Geo damage, which is exactly what Navia needs. Also, according to most leakers, she’s designed to work well with Furina.

Which Fontaine characters are you interested in pulling in future updates? Let us know in the comments section below.

One of the most anticipated changes with every Apex Legends update has to be the care package rotation. I still remember how the whole community reacted when the R99 was moved to the care package. Well, as the title suggests, the care package is getting a new weapon in the pool, and it’s a shocking change for many. The Wingman pistol, after being switched from heavy to sniper type, has now been moved into the care package in Apex Legends Season 19. Here are the details:

Wingman is Now a Care Package Weapon

Yes, everyone’s favorite pistol has been moved from floor loot to the care package. It takes the place of the L-Star LMG, which was just an amazing weapon at mid-range. The Wingman has received a significant buff, as that is the treatment given to care package weapons. Here are the key takeaways for the care package Wingman in Apex Legends Season 19:

• Pre-equipped with golden sniper mag (9 bullets by default)
• Comes equipped with the Boosted Loader (take it up to 12 bullets)
• Comes with the upgraded Skullpiercer Elite hop-up
• Wingman comes with 110 ammo in the care package

Next up, let’s talk about the damage numbers for the care package Wingman. With the standard white helmet equipped, the Wingman body shot hits for 50 damage and the headshot hits for 95 damage. Furthermore, the fire rate has been greatly increased, and you are going to be livid when you face a Wingman in Apex Legends Season 19.

This is one of the biggest changes in Season 19 Ignite, along with the new legend Conduit and Storm Point map changes. We can expect the pro community to be quite happy about this change, but let’s hope the Wingman spam with increased damage does not lead to a major loss in competitive matches.

And if you are a Snapchat user, this task becomes even more challenging as there is a lot to comprehend. Being a Snapchat user myself, I am sure you might have encountered the slang or acronym “SB” in your chats.

Simply put, SB on Snapchat is a way of saying, ” Hey, I am still waiting for your response,” if they haven’t replied to your previous message.

Let’s say, for instance, your friend sent you an “SB” text on Snapchat. Your friend wants to remind you that you have forgotten to respond to one of their previous messages or snaps or the Snapchat Streak timer is about to blow.

When and How to Use SB on Snapchat

Like any other messaging, Snapchat has its own rules of etiquette you must follow when using slang like SB or SFS.

Also, you should always remember that while slang terms like “SB” or “GTS” are widely used, ensure you’re communicating with people who understand these abbreviations. If you’re chatting with someone unfamiliar with Snapchat lingo, avoiding using such terms is best.

How to Respond to SB on Snapchat

Responding to “SB” (Snap Back) on Snapchat is pretty straightforward if the other person is your genuine friend or someone who is very close to you in Snapchat planet order, so remember to always respond in a friendly and engaging manner. Here’s how you can respond:

• Acknowledge the reminder: Always start by acknowledging the reminder with a friendly response like “Oops, my bad! ” or “Thanks for the reminder! .” This will help your friend understand that you value their efforts. 
• Continue the conversation: If you have something specific to share or respond to from the previous conversation, dive right into it, as this can keep the conversation flowing naturally.
• Share a quick Snap: If you’re comfortable, respond with a snap. It could be a selfie, a photo of your actions, or anything interesting happening around you. Visual responses are a fun way to engage on Snapchat, and they are also what Snapchat actually stands for.
• Use humor: Injecting humor can always help lighten the mood. You could respond with a funny GIF, meme, or a witty comment about the situation.
