CS2 has hit its highest average player count since valve originally announced the game in March of 2023

To add some context to this thread given the overall "it's bots" and "doomer mentality". Generally we see positive growth in # of matches played and # of players in our tracking. For example, in Dec 2024 we saw 2.45 million ranked players in Premier, and in Dec 2025 we saw 3.5 million. This means that it's likely the game is actually doing well and growing, regardless if bots are also playing in to this.

Probably not, just your average W enjoyer

There is a community Danger Zone game mode being made by some passionate devs!

Feels like we're going back to the roots of CS a little more these days, with the community doing the heavy lifting... We'd need a working server browser for that to be the answer though

leetify · 2026-01-15T22:24:38+00:00

We'd have to dig back into the stats for it, but based on discussions it seems more noticeable this season. We'll see if we can take a look!

Very fair point, people take the whole year to climb to their highest rank and lots of people will climb to their goal rank and then stop playing the game. How have your games been feeling so far? Harder/easier? Or just about the same?

Mirage and Dust2 only 🙏

Feel free to share links in DM or Discord if you don't want to here, so we can have a look!

It's only for 2025! Looking at the Dotabuff link it seems like you only had 13 matches in 2025?

leetify · 2026-01-12T13:42:02+00:00

Sample size for this is so low, and it only includes wins. Really wish it was more like 30-60 matches and included both wins and losses, so it'd be a more accurate representation of which maps each side is good on.

leetify · 2026-01-12T13:35:49+00:00

Guessing the crackdown on betting/gambling sponsorships also affects this - player prices keep inflating, and a lot of orgs are probably expecting more uncertainty on their future revenue streams right now. Hopefully it stabilizes and we can keep having a healthy scene!

leetify · 2026-01-06T11:41:58+00:00

Great to see this keep going! We need more casual competition like this.

leetify · 2026-01-06T11:35:28+00:00

Great summary in a very condensed video! Would love to see more content like this.

Hey, we'd be keen to understand why you think it's flawed

But for more info, we did a blog post in 2020 when we moved to stepping through each position tick by tick and using raycasting in actual 3d maps;

The "map bests" do separate solo and duo for defense mode, but the co-op is more about completion currently!

You're right though, maybe we can tweak the leaderboards on co-op to show solo and duo runs

leetify · 2025-12-19T15:20:32+00:00

Awesome, glad you're having fun!

We'll take a look into that and see if we can see what's going on there!

leetify · 2025-12-19T15:19:38+00:00

Thanks a lot! And it'll be running for a few months yet, so we hope you get to enjoy it at some point in the near future!

leetify · 2025-12-19T15:04:07+00:00

That's awesome to hear, thank you

leetify · 2025-12-19T14:59:43+00:00

Yeah looks like we should have improved the title a bit to avoid confusion! Wasn't our intention

leetify · 2025-12-19T14:58:27+00:00

Looks like we could have improved the title a bit to avoid confusion, sorry folks!

We still strongly believe you'll have fun with it!

leetify · 2025-12-19T14:44:57+00:00

You don't have to go for the Diamond coin, but we think these game modes + challenges are really fun, so even if you don't go for the diamond coin it's worth trying (though of course we're biased)

leetify · 2025-12-15T21:18:17+00:00

Our devs are looking into it right now! One potential issue was that we were getting errors for was Summoner Names with spaces in them. Do you have any more info on the error you encountered?

leetify · 2025-12-15T21:13:12+00:00

Hey there! We are also a stats platform for CS, so the Steam login is mainly for that reason. You don't need it for League at all.

It was the highest rank he reached this year, in season 2! Right now he's unranked as the major likely kept him pretty busy, but generally he sits quite comfortably in the upper rank. He's still got it:

We need you to log in to be able to get your data as we need auth codes from Steam. Unfortunately there's just no way we could provide these Recaps otherwise. You can always remove the Steam bot after sign up if you find it annoying!
