Happy Halloween everyone! And, if you are reading this after Halloween, then much merriment and good wishes to whatever you are doing. That said, we have a lot to talk about this week! First, Giant Bomb has published an article announcing its plans for Extra Life 2020. You will find a link to the announcement article below. Be aware, the Extra Life team is open for people to join RIGHT NOW! The team captain position is in the process of being switched, and I will keep you posted when the transition happens. Also, in terms of the Spotlight this week, HOLY SHIT, we have a TON of artwork to review and share! So, with that in mind, let's jump into it!

Finally achieved Mastery Rank 30 in Warframe. I couldn't have done it without the many members of the @giantbomb warframe community. Duders of GB Clan & Alliance who helped and supported us. Let's keep being a cool part of the community and help others also reach MR 30! https://t.co/DstfhBcALI pic.twitter.com/jxiHVCSKQq
