Valve has published their own regional ratings of CSGO teams. The ratings are available on GitHub. They use the team's prize money won on all of the important tournaments as one of the main criterias. 

This way, G2 managed to beat the reigning major champions from Virtus.pro. Besides that, Heroic claimed the number 1 spot, despite winning only one tournament lately. 

Besides, there are new rules for the major qualification. Teams need to participate in closed qualifiers in order to gain additional points. For now, the points distribution of past events in EU is like this:

  1. Heroic - 1949;
  2. G2 - 1946;
  3. Virtus Pro - 1935;
  4. FaZe Clan - 1930;
  5. Natus Vincere - 1814;
  6. Team Vitality - 1770;
  7. Fnatic - 1768;
  8. MOUZ - 1761;
  9. Cloud9 - 1715;
  10. Team Spirit - 1711.


The next event for CS:GO teams is ESL Pro League Season 17. It will kick off February 22nd 2023 and 26 April 2023. 32 teams will be competing for 850,000 USD prize pool.
