Beginner's guide to CS2 tournaments | Economy system and utilities The economy system is one of the core features of Counter-Strike. From CS 1.6 to CS:GO, it has evolved over several generations into its current form. Despite the switch from MR15 in CS:GO to MR12 in CS2, Valve has shown no intention of adjusting the economy system. Therefore, the economy system in CS2 remains the same as it was in CS:GO.

Beginner's guide to CS2 tournaments | Tournament format and team tactics Watching CS2 tournaments is relatively beginner-friendly compared to other esports titles. There are no characters with complex abilities, and the maps are mostly static, with few interactive elements. CS2 games are straightforward, featuring Terrorists (attackers) who play against Counter-Terrorists (defenders).
Victory is achieved either by eliminating the enemy team, planting and protecting the C4 bomb until it explodes for the Terrorists, or defending the bombsite by defusing the bomb for the Counter-Terrorists. The intense gunfights in CS2 provide an exciting experience for the audience.

Gamers8 | Betting Preview A new tournament, outside of ESL and BLAST organised events, has emerged in the form of Gamers8. This is much more than just a CS:GO tournament, as competitions in other games have been taking place under the Gamers8 name for the last month. What is most appealing about this tournament is the $1,000,000 prize pool, a figure only seen at the highest level of events. Another interesting aspect of this tournament is the single-elimination format the organisers have chosen to adopt the whole way through - the brackets will seem familiar to those who watch events like the World Cup. This means no second chances – one loss and you’re out.

League of Legends | Mid-Season Patch It has been another confusing year. It seems like we’re just along for the ride with Riot Games in the ever-changing League of Legends (LoL) development cycle. After failing to produce the start of season cinematic for 2023, a staple for the series, the general fear from the LoL fanbase was that the game has been put on the backburner. The off-season did little to inspire hope as well, with Riot merely reintroducing a removed feature, the Chemtech Drake, and making changes to a few items. Suffice it to say, many were left unsatisfied.

LPL Summer Split | Overview The performance of LPL teams at MSI 2023 was night and day compared to Worlds last year. An all-LCK final has become an all-LPL final, and China is currently the most dominant region in the world. They appear to be one step ahead of the meta, and due to this, performed better in the draft. The next step is to prove that the region can not only stay ahead, but also make an appearance at Worlds that isn’t just a single front-runner whose counterparts choke for no reason in the Group Stage. They need to drop the “one-team region” moniker.

Abandoning the previous three stage tournament - Play-ins, Rumble, Bracket - viewers can now expect the Play-in Stage to be followed by immediate best of fives, which will be played in a double elimination bracket. This format is reminiscent of Worlds’ Playoffs, with a hint of CS:GO Group Stages.

League of Legends | Red Side vs. Blue Side Side selection is a very interesting part of League of Legends, especially when you consider its impact from a competitive standpoint. As a topic, it’s rather inconsistent in its prevalence within the general discussion of game balance, often only mentioned by a team that have recently lost an important match. But as side selection also determines draft order, it can have big implications on the outcome of games. The priority of each side often depends on the current meta.

LPL Playoffs Preview As the last major region to participate in playoff games this year, the LPL looks to do it bigger and better. With ten teams out of the original 17 through to the playoff bracket, only the top four will earn themselves a second chance with a double elimination bracket. Having placed first and second, JD Gaming (JDG) and Edward Gaming (EDG) have earned an automatic slot in the double elimination stage (or round four of the brackets). Every other team must play through the gauntlet, and the lower the seeding, the more games the team has to win. Each victory will present them with another match against a team one seeding pairing ahead of them.

LCK Playoffs Preview It certainly feels strange to be discussing the beginning of the playoffs in a world where G2 Esports have already qualified for MSI. With a new format this year for big events, twice as many teams from each region get a shot at making it to the biggest of stages. While this may seem like a relief to most, it’s also added pressure.

LPL Power Rankings: Week 9 With two games left to go for each team, it’s all to play for going into Week 10 of the LPL. As the top 10 teams look to make the playoffs, there’s tough competition for the final spots. As mentioned last week, Anyone’s Legend were the first team to be eliminated from playoffs contention. But this week, the 10th place team now hold a record of seven wins, thus eliminating all other teams who cannot reach this mark in the week to come.

The disparity in performance around the playoff cut-off period means that we essentially know which teams have qualified for the playoff bracket already. Given that only the top six teams from the regular season qualify, and the difference in wins between the sixth and seventh team sits at four games, it’s safe to say that nothing will change in two games.

No matter the meta, you can expect early-game Junglers, assassins locked in blind, and level-one fights that rival your bronze placements.
