March 2026: The “GodLike” Revival

After a series of roster changes and “rebuilding” phases throughout 2024 and 2025, Kronten’s current focus is the BGIS 2026 Grand Finals.

 

1. Management of the “Super-Team”

Kronten has been instrumental in stabilizing the GodLike BGMI roster, which currently features Jonathan, ZGOD (as a creator/stand-in), and new-age stars. As of today, March 16, GodLike is preparing for the Grand Finals at the Chennai Trade Centre, having safely navigated through the Survival and Semi-Final stages.

 

2. Global Expansion

Under Kronten’s leadership, GodLike has expanded its footprint beyond India. In late 2025, he hinted at establishing a permanent international bootcamp (likely in Dubai or Southeast Asia) to allow his players to compete in global PUBG Mobile circuits without ping or server restrictions.

 

Historical Legacy: The “Rush” Meta

Before becoming a CEO, Kronten was a pioneer of the Indian streaming scene:

 

  • The “Rush Gameplay” Pioneer: In 2018–2019, Kronten was one of the first creators to popularize a “full-rush” aggressive playstyle on YouTube, moving away from the “camping” meta of early PUBG Mobile.

 

  • Team IND & GodL Clan: He was a member of the iconic Team IND alongside Mortal and Scout before founding his own clan, which eventually grew into GodLike Esports.

 

  • The Charity Advocate: He is well-known for his philanthropy, including major charity streams for Indian martyrs and disaster relief funds.

 

Business & Lifestyle (2026)

  • The GodLike Bootcamp: Kronten oversees one of India’s most expensive gaming facilities in Mumbai, which includes state-of-the-art training rooms, a gym, and content creation studios.

 

  • Co-Ownership: He operates the organization alongside his brother, Amar Chandgude, who handles much of the day-to-day operations and management.

 

  • Influence: He remains a key voice in the “IGC” (Indian Gaming Community), often taking a firm stance against underperformance and advocating for better player contracts and mental health support.

 

Technical & Personal Specs

  • Playstyle (Casual/Stream): Even in 2026, when he streams, Kronten sticks to his “Rush” roots, often playing with Jonathan or Mortal for nostalgic “OG” sessions.

 

  • Device: iPhone 17 Pro Max (for casual play) and a high-end streaming setup featuring the latest NVIDIA RTX series GPUs.

 

  • Catchphrases: Known for his high energy and motivational speeches during team huddles.
