If you are feeling a little bit lost, I will help you:

1. CSGO means Counter Strike Global Offensive. A popular game of police against terrorists for PC.

2. Twitch is a platform to broadcast games and related content in a live mode (similar to youtube). Azubu and Hitbox are other alternative platforms

Team @fnatic (Sweden) won the event and @luminosity (Brazil) got the 2nd place.

So, the natural thing is to imagine the champions as the 1st place of social media also. In fact, it happened just for the teams account on Twitter.

But the most interesting things about it are:

-Some teams as Counter Logic Gaming (@clgaming), despite their performance still figuring between most popular on Twitter. -Other teams, such as @cloud9gg and @teamliquidpro not classified to the event, but still been mentioned during it.

What these 3 teams have in common!? They are from the USA!

And about the players…

The most important thing about players popularity is: Brazilian players are not a tradition in e-sport, but the fact that makes @lgfallen the most popular player is his community. He was not the best player of the match (according to hltv.org statistics), but he has a legion of fans, literally. Some reasons are out of the match:

1. He makes videos in a teacher-student way to help amateur players to improve and be professional. It is a brand and was a team called Games Academy 2. He lives in USA now. The @luminosity is an American brand and current the best team from Americas.

But above all, I think CSGO is a very popular worldwide brand
