HLTV is the definitive news, statistics, and community platform for Counter-Strike. Founded in 2002, HLTV has grown from a demo-hosting and match-tracking site into the primary source for competitive Counter-Strike coverage.
HLTV provides comprehensive coverage of tournaments, player statistics, team rankings, and breaking news. Their end-of-year Top 20 Players list is one of the most anticipated annual features in esports, and their HLTV Awards ceremony recognizes excellence across the competitive scene.
The 2024 Shanghai Major was voted HLTV’s Best Event of the Year by the community, reflecting the quality of the tournament organization and the strength of Shanghai as a host city.
