Tour StructureThe ESL Pro Tour holds three tiers of competition

Championships are the pinnacle of CS:GO competition and are held twice a year in packed out arenas. Teams endure an arduous qualification process in order to claim their right to compete on the world stage and see who will be decided the world’s Champions.

Masters are where the more established teams compete. Held in prestigious arenas, teams that are successful and win a Masters tournament qualify directly to the Championship tournament.

Challenger offers a doorway for aspiring teams to compete regionally and acts as a gateway for these teams into the Masters tournament ESL Pro League.
