Play with these teams
- Guess the Player — A daily Counter-Strike 2 wordle: name the mystery pro from clues that light up green as you get closer.
- Blur — A pixelated photo of a Counter-Strike 2 pro sharpens with every wrong guess. Name them before the picture gives it away.
- Higher or Lower — Two Counter-Strike 2 pros, one hidden stat. Call higher or lower and build the longest streak you can.
- Bingo — A grid of Counter-Strike categories — countries, teams, trophies, roles. Fill each cell with a real pro, and no player twice.
- Team Path — Follow a Counter-Strike pro’s career through the teams they played for, and work out who it is.
- Major Draft — Draft five Counter-Strike 2 pros by role, then coach them live through a full Major — Swiss stage, playoffs, round by round.
- Pro Career — Create a Counter-Strike 2 pro at 16, sign with a real club, and play out a full career of seasons, transfers and choices.
- CS2 Wordle — The Wordle you know, played on the Counter-Strike dictionary: guess the daily word letter by letter, six tries.
- Ace — A ranked list of Counter-Strike pros for each difficulty, every day. Name everyone on it and it’s an ace.
- Fan Favourites — Vote for the Counter-Strike 2 pros you actually like — no account, no sign-up. The ranking below is the crowd's, updated the moment you click.
- CS2 Transfers — Every roster move HLTV has published, dated to the day, back to March 2023.
- Pro Manager — Run a real Counter-Strike 2 club on the real circuit — sign pros and retired legends, call the veto and every round, and climb Valve's ranking season after season.
- Multiplayer rooms — Press Find a match for a 1v1 against another player, or create a private room, send the code, and race your friends through the same rounds of Guess, Blur, Team Path, Higher-Lower, Wordle, Bingo, Ace or Major Draft — or pick Mixed and get a different game every round.
- CS2 tier lists — Rank Counter-Strike players, coaches, clubs or maps the way you see them, send the board to whoever you want with one link, and compare it with where everyone else put them.
