Series[]
Indian Heroes of PUBG[]
Indian Heroes of PUBG features prominent Indian players and streamers of PUBG. This first episode of this series was uploaded on 30 January 2019, featuring Ajey Nagar.[1] A collaboration with a creator usually consisted of three segments: the main interview, the "Item Hell Challenge" and "Real Sh0t Challenge."
In "Item Hell," the creator was given six pages with their back towards the creator, clipped with magnets on a white bulletin board beside them. The player had to gain one kill, after which they would pick a random paper from the clipboard. It would have an obtainable item from PUBG, with which the player had to kill their next target.[2]
The items could be anything from grenades to vehicles, and from a sniper without any scope, to a melee weapon. If the player failed to kill the enemy and/or dies, they could proceed to the next item, but would lose a score.[2]
In "Real Sh0t," the creator played a game with challenging rules to perform an action, which depended on the game. Nischay Malhan was the only guest to be given the game Getting Over It, with the rest playing PUBG.[3] In PUBG, the player generally played solo vs squad in the Team Deathmatch mode. If the player survived without any deaths, they proceed to the next level. In Getting Over It, if the player reached the tower without ever falling down, they proceeded to the next level.
If the player failed to abide by the rules, they were presented five drinks—four of them tasting horrible—one of which the player had to drink. One of them would be coffee, but has a different name to mislead the guest.
1v1[]
1v1 is a skit-embedded interview series in which, the creator is interviewed all while the creator plays a match of PUBG. After the interview is over, the interviewer, mostly Shaswat, has to play a 1v1 death-match with the creator. The first episode premiered on 25 October 2019, featuring Shubham Saini.[4]
1Up in the House[]
During the lockdown imposed due to the COVID-19 outbreak of 2020, 1Up Gaming started a new series named 1Up in the House, where different PUBG players played various challenges. The matches were played in custom rooms, and a new challenge was introduced in each match.[5]
The first episode of this series was premiered on 10 April 2020. 1Up staff monitored the players, and their bodycam footages were compiled into a highlight video after the match, and uploaded to YouTube. A second season of the series premiered on 26 November 2021.[6]
