Battle for the best player of the year in CS:GO
Twelve years ago, HLTV.org launched the now traditional announcement of the best players in the iconic esports shooter Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Each year, it names the top twenty scorers in the world based on statistics, number of awards (MVP, EVP), participation and results in tournaments, etc. HLTV tries to focus on the entire past year, and not just on recent achievements. from those under consideration. Therefore, the constancy of the results is a prerequisite for the nominees. New is the ability to bet on results. The HLTV portal has programmed a game for 2022 where you can rank TOP 20 and then win some skins for the game itself. On the other hand, the Czech bookmaker Fortuna offers the opportunity to bet on the absolute winner (with a large margin led by Alexander “s1mple” Kostyliev), as well as on who will be the best in the ranking. HLTV starts publishing the Top 20 starting today, January 1, 2023. The TOP 3 will be announced on January 14 at the HLTV awards ceremony, which will be broadcast from Stockholm, Sweden.
The Overwatch World Championship is back
It’s been three long years since the last World Championship in the popular team-based shooter Overwatch. There have been big changes in recent months. The second part was released, which completely replaced the original one, the number of players in the team was reduced from six to five, and the creators faced problems in balancing individual characters. However, the huge popularity of Overwatch motivates the creators from Blizzard, so they decided to once again organize an international tournament of a huge format. The last event of this kind took place in 2019. Together with the announcement, we also received the so-called road map (a plan, if you want a schedule). 36 teams will take part in the tournament. Players who manage to reach the Diamond rank and above will be able to represent their home region after completing the challenges. Qualification will run throughout the first half of 2023, depending on the regions, with the top sixteen teams competing in the fall. The championship will be held in symbiosis with the Overwatch League. So this event is for the best Overwatch players who are not currently in the pro league.
