Don’t miss your chance to watch some Counter-Strike live this year. Here is a list of upcoming events you can buy tickets for right now.
The $1,000,000 derby continues as top-tier teams battle towards winning the ESL Grand Slam VII and mark their names in the books of Counter-Strike history.
No, unfortunately there will be no live audience this time round. Season 22 will take place privately in a studio from Stockholm Sweden.
Following the initial Team Selected Seeding in Stage 1 and Stage 2, teams will be assigned ELO-like ratings corresponding to their seed positions, with higher seeds receiving more points. Each Swiss round will then be seeded according to the teams’ current ratings, which will be dynamically updated after each match. Teams will be paired based on their updated ratings, with the restriction that no rematches will occur.
The objective of live ratings is to continuously adjust team rankings to more accurately reflect their current performance. For example, if the #16 seed defeated the #1 seed, this result suggests the #16 team is performing above expectations, and their rating will be adjusted accordingly.
