Riot’s new tactical shooter Valorant is still in beta, but that hasn’t stopped players from flooding to Twitch in order to catch a glimpse of the team behind League of Legends’ next game. Over 1.7 million viewers tuned were watching the game on Twitch at its peak, according to PC Gamer, watching those lucky enough to have made it into the closed beta.

Big name Twitch streamers and professional esport players such as xQc, Pokimane, DrDisprespect, Surefour, and more have been streaming the beta around the clock since it began early last week. They have even been provided with beta keys to give away live on stream. While Riot allowed streamers to roll out some content and footage last week, it’s the real-time footage that players want to see.

Valorant peaked with about as many viewers as Fortnite did during the black hole event during the black hole event back in Fortnite: Chapter 2. The black hole event, which ended in Fortnite being rebranded as Fortnite: Chapter 2 after its map was destroyed, was a major milestone for the game, while these viewer numbers are reflective of the hype Valorant has built up in the lead up to release.

Call of Duty’s goodest boy, Riley the dog from Call of Duty: Ghosts, is coming to Modern Warfare. Activision has announced that the fan-favorite Call of Duty dog will be added to Modern Warfare through the upcoming Season 3 update, but there is a catch.

You need to buy the Season 3 Battle Pass to unlock Riley. People who buy the pass will get Riley in the form of a new finishing move where Riley will probably attack and kill your enemy. This will be the second dog-themed murdering move in Modern Warfare, as the Operator Talon has a dog of his own named Indiana that also bites and kills people as part of a brutal finishing move.

For those who don’t remember, Riley become an instant internet sensation when he was announced for Ghosts during the Xbox One reveal event in May 2013. Developer Infinity Ward tossed up whether or not to kill the dog in the story mode, but thankfully they did not. Riley sustained a bullet wound, but he survived, and now he’s coming to Modern Warfare very soon.

You’ve heard sitting at a desk all day isn’t great for your health, and maybe now you’re finally ready to do something about it by getting a standing desk. You’re not alone, as this product category has exploded in popularity recently, so there are a ton of options. But what should you look for? Aside from budgetary considerations, the most important feature to look for in a standing desk is one that is comfortable at your actual height; ergonomics are even more important when you’re standing for extended periods.

In addition to making sure the desk is tall enough, you’ll want to make sure it offers plenty of adjustments too, so you can fine-tune it to your liking. Cable management is another consideration, as is whether you’ll be using a monitor arm or not. You might want to budget a soft mat to stand on as well. Whether you’re looking to convert an existing desk into a standing desk, buying a new desk outright, or pitching your boss on an upgrade at the office, these selections will make navigating the waters a lot easier.

TL;DR – These are the Best Standing Desks:

• Varidesk Prodesk 60
• Autonomous SmartDesk 2
• Ikea Skarsta
• Jarvis L-Shaped Standing Desk
• Thermaltake Level 20 RGB Battlestation
• Uplift V2 4-Leg Standing Desk
• ApexDesk AirDesk

Best Standing Desk

[poilib element=”commerceCta” json=”%7B%22image%22%3A%7B%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FVarideskProdesk-601586296342103.jpg%22%2C%22styleUrl%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FVarideskProdesk-601586296342103_%7Bsize%7D.jpg%22%2C%22id%22%3A%225e8cf61ae4b0c8e1b49fa897%22%7D%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fr.zdbb.net%2Fu%2Fbs4i%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Varidesk%20Prodesk%2060%22%2C%22store%22%3A%22Office%20Depot%22%2C%22additionalInfo%22%3A%22%22%2C%22ourPick%22%3Atrue%7D”]

Varidesk is a good option if you want a standing desk that’s easy to assemble and comes with some essential accessories. The Prodesk 60 features a spacious 60-inch wide work surface. Meanwhile, a pair of motorized legs and electric motor lets you set adjust the height of your setup between 25.5 inches high to 50.5 inches high at the press of a button.

The Prodesk 60 is also one of the few standing desks to feature a steel crossbar, which helps reduce vibrations and improve stability on two-legged tables such as this. You also get an included cable management system, however, due to the way it’s mounted to the rear of the desk you might be forced to use only monitor arms from Varidesk. Despite added complexity from the crossbar and cable management system, the Prodesk 60 is one of the easiest to assemble and it can even be done in less than 10 minutes.

2. Autonomous SmartDesk 2

Best Budget Standing Desk

[poilib element=”commerceCta” json=”%7B%22image%22%3A%7B%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FAutonomousSmartDesk-21586296507681.jpg%22%2C%22styleUrl%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FAutonomousSmartDesk-21586296507681_%7Bsize%7D.jpg%22%2C%22id%22%3A%225e8cf6c0e4b0c8e1b49fa898%22%7D%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fr.zdbb.net%2Fu%2Fbs4j%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Autonomous%20SmartDesk%202%22%2C%22store%22%3A%22Autonomous%22%2C%22additionalInfo%22%3A%22%22%2C%22ourPick%22%3Afalse%7D”]

If you’re looking for something a little simpler and more affordable, look no further than the Autonomous SmartDesk 2. You get a slightly smaller 53- by 29-inch surface area to work with, but it’s nearly as versatile with an adjustable height range of 29.5- to 48-inches. For less than $400, the SmartDesk 2 is a plenty strong and sturdy platform for all your work and gaming equipment with a maximum load capacity of 300 pounds.

3. Ikea Skarsta

Ultra Cheap Standing Desk

[poilib element=”commerceCta” json=”%7B%22image%22%3A%7B%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FIkeaSkarsta1586296582503.JPG%22%2C%22styleUrl%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FIkeaSkarsta1586296582503_%7Bsize%7D.JPG%22%2C%22id%22%3A%225e8cf70be4b0de70ed649989%22%7D%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fr.zdbb.net%2Fu%2Fbs4k%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Ikea%20Skarsta%22%2C%22store%22%3A%22Ikea%22%2C%22additionalInfo%22%3A%22%22%2C%22ourPick%22%3Afalse%7D”]

Buying a standing desk doesn’t have to break the bank, so if you want to save some money go with a manually adjustable desk like the Ikea Skarsta. It offers a 47- by 27.5-inch work surface and is available in beige or white. In terms of height adjustments, the unit can go from 27.5-inches to 47-inches via a manual crank.

The 110-pound weight capacity should be enough to handle most office or gaming setups, and levelers on the feet and a solid steel frame provide a stable, sturdy workspace. There aren’t a lot of frills here, but if you’re looking for a new desk that doesn’t cost a month’s rent, the Ikea Skarsta is a good choice.

4. Jarvis L-Shaped Standing Desk

Best L-Shaped Standing Desk

[poilib element=”commerceCta” json=”%7B%22image%22%3A%7B%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FJarvisL-Shaped-Standing-Desk1586296665537.jpg%22%2C%22styleUrl%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fassets1.ignimgs.com%2F2020%2F04%2F07%2FJarvisL-Shaped-Standing-Desk1586296665537_%7Bsize%7D.jpg%22%2C%22id%22%3A%225e8cf75ee4b0de70ed64998a%22%7D%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fr.zdbb.net%2Fu%2Fbs4l%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Jarvis%20L-Shaped%20Standing%20Desk%22%2C%22store%22%3A%22Fully%22%2C%22additionalInfo%22%3A%22%22%2C%22ourPick%22%3Afalse%7D”]

L-Shaped desks are great for workstations and battlestations positioned in the corner of the room and they practically give you double the desk space. The only way you could make it even better is to put it on a trio of motorized legs like the Jarvis L-Shaped Standing Desk. While it’s not exactly cheap at $1,250, it’s still more affordable than a lot of motorized L-shaped standing desks.

The Jarvis, by Fully, is backed by a seven-year warranty and is available in three color options. This setup gives you two 60-inch wide bamboo work surfaces, and it has a pair of cable management grommets to keep things tidy. The electric motor is also rated to lift 530 pounds. Not satisfied with the available surfaces? The Jarvis also comes as a frame-only option, so you can bolt on any spare tabletop you want. The onboard controller can store up to four height presets, and the frame raises from 23- inches to 48.5-inches, with a soft start/stop.

The Thermaltake Level 20 RGB Battlestation is the perfect standing desk for users who crave the gamer aesthetic (read: RGB). Jokes aside, this standing desk was made for gaming and you can see it in the mouse pad that completely covers the 65- by 30-inch tabletop. It’s also strong enough to lift up to 330 pounds of gaming gear with an adjustable height range of 27.5- to 43.3-inches.

Of course, this gaming desk is replete with RGB lighting that goes all the way around the edges of the desk and there are 20 customizable lighting zones you can fully customize to display 16.8 million colors.

6. Uplift V2 4-Leg Standing Desk

Two-legged standing desks are nice an all but there’s always going to be some inherent wobble even with a crossbar. If you want a standing desk that’s basically solid as a rock you’re going to need the Uplift V2 4-Leg Standing Desk. this is one of the few standing desks on the market that comes with four motorized legs.

All that extra support kills any rocking from happening either side to side or from front to back. Another bonus of having a standing desk with four motorized legs is it can lift way more, up to 535 pounds to be exact.

7. ApexDesk AirDesk

Best Pneumatic Standing Desk

Standing desks are nice but if you’re not a fan of slow and loud electric motors, then maybe a pneumatic-assisted desk is the best option for you. Of all the pneumatic standing desks we’ve seen the ApexDesk AirDesk hits the best balance of features to price. Instead of using motors, a pneumatic system uses springs and counterweights to help you lift and lower your standing desk between 29 and 48 inches high.

You’ll have to put in a bit more effort to adjust your desk, but it’s also a lot quicker, quieter, and not to mention cheaper. At roughly $400 for a 59-inch wide tabletop, this standing desk is fairly affordable. This model also features a sturdy steel frame complete with a crossbar for added stability, and it can hold up to 180 pounds of weight.

You’ve already made a decent investment in your office desk, so why toss it out? Ergotron has a desk add-on that lets you convert your existing desk to a standing model while simultaneously adding a ton of utility to it. With a 35-inch work surface, the WorkFit-T Standing Desk Converter can easily accommodate dual-monitor setups and it doubles as a screen riser. Meanwhile, the lower deck is more than large enough to accommodate a full-sized keyboard and mouse.

Unlike the standing desks on this, this sit-stand desk converter requires no setup at all, you just need to plop it down on top of your desktop. After you’ve placed all your gear on the Ergotron WorkFit-T, give the two side paddles a good squeeze and you’ll be able to lift up your whole setup with ease and give it an extra 15-inches in height.

The Xdesk Flex brings the flexibility of a standing desk to the comfort of your couch. As wild of a combo as this might seem, there are plenty of people who like working and gaming from their couch, and so a height-adjustable table can make your life much ergonomic while in the living room or the recreational area at work.

The Xdesk Flex can go from being a low-sitting coffee table to an upright standing desk in a couple of seconds. Best of all it’s completely battery-powered, so you don’t need to have to worry about tripping over wires constantly. It also has a weight capacity of 100 pounds, it won’t collapse on you if you lean on it.

Disney has announced new cinematic release dates for several of its films amid the COVID-19 pandemic, shuffling films like Mulan and Black Widow to later dates. But with a few releases remaining in limbo or continuing to occupy optimistic dates, it’s possible that some upcoming films will head straight to Disney’s streaming platform, Disney Plus. Now, in an interview with Barron’s, Disney executive chairman Bob Iger has opened up about the possibility of moving more films to day one launches on this platform.

“There are some (movies) we’ve decided to put on Disney Plus,” he says, referencing Artemis Fowl, which was originally planned for a cinematic release. “In some cases we’ve moved things onto Disney Plus faster than we would have,” he continues, citing Frozen 2 and Onward as examples.

Iger goes on to say that more films originally planned for a cinema release might go straight to Disney Plus in the future. “In terms of movies going ahead after Artemis, there may be a few more that we end up putting directly onto Disney Plus,” he says, “but for the most part a lot of the big tentpole Disney films, we’ll simply wait for slots.”

This review contains spoilers for the series finale of Schitt’s Creek, titled “Happy Ending.”

[poilib element=”accentDivider”]

There is no better and no worse time for Schitt’s Creek to be ending. Given the current state of the world – and the seemingly constant cloud of anxiety we’re all living under – the final season of this wholesome Canadian comedy has been a balm to soothe even the most cynical soul, and while the show couldn’t possibly be going out on any more of a high, there’s no denying what a void it will leave as Johnny and Moira Rose drive off into the sunset, leaving the titular town and its eccentric characters in the rearview mirror.

The benefit of the show ending on its own terms is that co-creators and stars Daniel and Eugene Levy have been able to craft a meticulous and prolonged farewell over the course of Season 6, bringing the series full circle and allowing the Roses to bloom (sorry) into the people they always had the potential to be, while still keeping them unabashedly true to themselves.

[ignvideo url=”https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/03/26/new-to-netflix-for-april-2020″]

The previous 13 episodes have cemented the character development we’ve been watching in our core four over the past six years, tying up the loose ends of Moira’s career resurgence, Alexis’ struggle for independence, Johnny’s shift in priorities, and David’s fear of commitment, to allow the series finale to serve as pure fan-service in the best way – a celebration of the bonds these people have forged, whether they’re family by blood or by choice.

While Schitt’s Creek has continually broken new ground in its portrayal of queer relationships, its true power is in treating the remarkable as unremarkable – so although there’s something undeniably powerful about the series culminating in David and Patrick’s wedding, to anyone who has watched and loved the show, really, they’re just David and Patrick, two humans we love and root for, so why shouldn’t they get the happiest of happy endings (complete with a literal happy ending) for the series finale?

Like any sitcom couple, their wedding day is beset by complications, but everything turns out just fine in the end, thank goodness, capped off with another welcome musical interlude or three (complete with callbacks to two of the show’s best needle drops – the Season 2 finale’s Rose family dance party to “Precious Love,” and Noah Reid’s game-changing serenade of “Simply the Best,” plus a nod to David and Patrick’s Mariah Carey-inspired “I love yous”) and a typically bonkers Moira Rose performance from the unparalleled Catherine O’Hara.

Schitt’s Creek has always felt like a rare comedic gem because of the empathy it has for its characters, even at their most ridiculous – the characterization is every bit as important as the punchlines, evoking the same good-hearted spirit as Parks and Recreation – and in the finale more than ever, I’m struck by how much I just enjoy spending time with these people, who somehow never manage to be grating, even when they’re at their most self-centered. (Watching the post-finale documentary special, Best Wishes, Warmest Regards, it’s obvious that the cast feels the same – it’s easy to imagine just how many of those tears in the finale were real.)

You can’t help but wish for a supersized, hourlong finale to try to prolong the inevitable – to luxuriate in the absurdity of these characters for just a little longer – but in truth, the last three episodes have felt like a cohesive closing arc, only separated by the necessity of a weekly rollout. For those who will binge the entire season, it’s likely that this will feel like a perfectly formed send-off, so it seems silly to nitpick the finale for feeling too brief, too quick to leave us – but that doesn’t alter the bittersweet feeling that lingers as the credits roll, knowing that this is the last time we’re all going to be here like this, able to pop in and say hey to one of the most dysfunctional and lovable families to ever grace our screens. In the immortal words of Tina Turner, Schitt’s Creek was simply the best, and we were lucky that we got to visit, even if the stay was shorter than we might’ve wanted.
