Continuing the trend with our Tier Rankings, we have now shifted into region-based rankings for the meantime while the esports world is also moving to more separate divisions. Come and see who the best Counter-Strike teams in Europe, the Americas, CIS, and Asia-Pacific are!

PLEASE NOTE: Different regions tiers are not comparable - teams that are in the Europe A-Tier are not necessarily equal to those in the Asia-Pacific A-Tier. Each region has been ranked individually and isolated from the others. We have also temporarily removed the S-Tier, reserving that for when the regions collide again and a 'King of Counter-Strike' can truly be named.
