Denmark

<p>Astralis’ Counter-Strike roster was founded in Denmark on January 18, 2016. The team’s biggest peak came during the CS:GO era: Astralis are the Major record-holders (4 titles), and they’re the team that won three Majors in a row — a rare thing, even by tier-1 standards.</p><p>At first, the team was owned by RFRSH Entertainment, which was owned by Nikolaj Nyholm and Jakob Lund Kristensen. However, in July 2019 the owner changed, and the team was bought by Astralis Group Holding A/S.</p><p>Right now, Astralis are still putting up solid results on the professional Counter-Strike 2 scene.</p><h2>Astralis achievements</h2><p>Since 2016, Astralis have played dozens of big Counter-Strike tournaments (including CS:GO and CS2).

This four-man core was where the organisation started putting together its first real results in Counter-Strike.</p><p>Their early highlights included a bronze finish at SteelSeries Summer Cup 2012 and second place at Razer Challenge Brasil 2013. For a young club, that was a solid start and its first real boost in visibility.</p><h3>The 2019-2022 roster</h3><p>The 2019 to 2022 period was one of the most successful in paiN’s history. At different points, the team featured Arthur “f4stzin” Schmitt, Wesley “hardzao” Lopes,&nbsp;<a href="/players/skullz" target="_self">Felipe “skullz” Medeiros</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/players/zevy" target="_self">Romeu “zevy” Rocco</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/players/biguzera" target="_self">Rodrigo “biguzera” Bittencourt</a>, Gabriel “nython” Lino, and&nbsp;<a href="/players/saffee" target="_self">Rafael “saffee” Costa</a>. Bruno “ellllll” Ono worked with the team, and in November 2021, Henrique “rikz” Waku joined paiN’s staff and started working alongside ellllll. At PGL Major Stockholm 2021, Felippe “felippe1” Martinez temporarily took over coaching duties at the event because ellllll could not attend.</p><p>This was the roster that brought paiN a string of strong results: wins at Gamers Club Liga Profissional: May 2019, Gamers Club Masters III, Brasil Game Cup 2019, ESEA Season 35: Open Division — North America, DreamHack Open January 2021: North America, BLAST Premier: Spring American Showdown 2022, ESL Challenger League Season 41: North America, and ESL Challenger at DreamHack Melbourne 2022. Another standout result was second place at FiReLEAGUE 2022: Global Finals.</p>

<p>100 Thieves is an American esports organization based in Los Angeles. The org launched in November 2017, with former professional Call of Duty player Matthew "Nadeshot" Haag as its founder. The club entered Counter-Strike on December 13, 2017 with the Brazilian ex-Immortals roster, but that lineup never played an official match under the tag. Later, 100 Thieves returned by buying out the Renegades core, reached the IEM Beijing 2019 final, left CS:GO in 2020, and came back in CS2 in November 2025.</p><p>Today, 100 Thieves are not just a team. They are a major gaming brand with media, merch, and several rosters across different titles.</p><h2>100 Thieves achievements</h2><p>100 Thieves' best Counter-Strike results came during their run with the Australian Renegades core. The team never won a Major or lifted the biggest trophy, but they were a steady playoff threat and could go toe-to-toe with top teams at big events.</p><figure class="table"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"></colgroup><thead><tr><th style="border-style:solid;">Tournament</th><th style="border-style:solid;">City and dates</th><th style="border-style:solid;">Place</th><th style="border-style:solid;">Prize money</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">IEM Beijing 2019</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Beijing, November 7-10, 2019</td><td style="border-style:solid;">2nd</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$50,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">ESL Pro League Season 10 Finals</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Odense, December 3-8, 2019</td><td style="border-style:solid;">7th-8th</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$17,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">IEM Katowice 2020</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Katowice, February 24-March 1, 2020</td><td style="border-style:solid;">5th-6th</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$15,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">DreamHack Masters Spring 2020: North America</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Online, May 19-June 14, 2020</td><td style="border-style:solid;">3rd</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$15,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">ESL Pro League Season 12: North America</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Online, September 1-27, 2020</td><td style="border-style:solid;">2nd</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$38,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">IEM New York 2020: North America</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Online, October 6-18, 2020</td><td style="border-style:solid;">2nd</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$10,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">Digital Crusade DraculaN Season 5</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Bucharest, February 26-28, 2026</td><td style="border-style:solid;">2nd</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$3,750</td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h2>Prize money by year</h2><p>100 Thieves have not earned that much in Counter-Strike compared with clubs that stayed in the game without long breaks.</p><figure class="table"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col style="width:50%;"><col style="width:50%;"></colgroup><thead><tr><th style="border-style:solid;">Year</th><th style="border-style:solid;">Prize money</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">2019</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$67,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">2020</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$123,500</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">2026</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$106,287.34</td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h2>100 Thieves roster history</h2><p>In Counter-Strike, 100 Thieves have had three main chapters: the Brazilian start in 2017, the Australian team from 2019 to 2020, and the European CS2 project from 2025 to 2026. These chapters are very different. The first one fell apart before it got going, the second brought the team its best results, and the third is built around experienced stars and young riflers.</p><h3>First roster achievements</h3><p>100 Thieves announced their first CS:GO roster on December 13, 2017, after buying it out from Immortals.

On paper, it looked strong, as some of the players had reached the PGL Major Krakow 2017 final with Immortals.</p><p>But that roster never played for 100 Thieves. The team withdrew from the ELEAGUE Major 2018 because of visa issues, and the project quickly shut down after the controversial events between kNgV- and journalist Thorin. Because of that, the first roster has no real achievements under the 100 Thieves tag.</p><h3>2020 roster</h3><p>The most successful 100 Thieves roster came together after the Renegades core joined.

Aleksandar "kassad" Trifunovic was the coach, with Chet "Chet" Singh later taking over.</p><p>In 2020, the roster took second place at ESL Pro League Season 12: North America and IEM New York 2020: North America.</p>

<p>3DMAX is a French esports organisation (founded in 2009). They started their Counter-Strike run back in 2011, but the CS:GO roster was disbanded in 2019.

Vincent "vinS" Jozefiak was the coach.</p><p>That lineup made it to the Shanghai Major, then kept its core for BLAST.tv Austin Major 2025. In Austin, Wildcard started the first stage 2-0, but lost its next three series and went out at 2-3. Changes followed after the event, and by the end of 2025 the lineup had effectively broken up.</p>

<p>Team Spirit was founded on December 6, 2015, and over time it became one of the most recognizable orgs in the CIS across multiple titles. Since 2022, the club’s main office has been based in Belgrade. Spirit entered Counter-Strike in the summer of 2016, when it signed a five-man lineup that had previously played together as the Phenomenon mix. Since then, Spirit has gone from grinding regional qualifiers to winning the Shanghai CS2 Major.</p><h2>Team Spirit achievements</h2><p>Spirit has had plenty of standout matches, tense finals, and wins at tier-1 events.

At the same time, the club often kept its core together for a long time, so most rebuilds were small and easy to follow. Below are the key periods that show how the team grew.</p><h3>Achievements of the first roster</h3><p>In June 2016, the lineup that had played as Phenomenon moved under the Spirit tag. That early five featured COLDYY1, S0tF1k, Dima, DavCost, and tonyblack (kibaken). Back then, the team mostly played qualifiers and gained experience on its first LANs.</p><p>The biggest results from that era were tied to the minor scene. In 2016, Spirit took second place at the StarLadder Regional Minor Championship CIS (a qualifier for ELEAGUE Major 2017) and earned $15,000. In 2018, the team reached the final of StarLadder &amp; ImbaTV Invitational Chongqing and took $35,000.</p><h3>The 2019–2022 roster</h3><p>In spring 2019, Spirit started building a new core. In March,&nbsp;<a href="/players/chopper" target="_self">chopper</a>&nbsp;and iDISBALANCE joined, and in September 2019 the roster was boosted by&nbsp;<a href="/players/mir" target="_self">mir</a>&nbsp;and 17-year-old&nbsp;<a href="/players/magixx" target="_self">magixx</a>. In early 2021,&nbsp;<a href="/players/degster" target="_self">degster</a>&nbsp;joined as the sniper, and the team looked a lot more dangerous in clutch rounds.</p><p>The peak of this period was in 2022. Spirit reached the PGL Major Antwerp 2022 semifinals (3–4th place) and earned $70,000. That same year, the team won FiReLEAGUE 2022: Global Finals and took $100,000. After that, another rebuild started, because the meta was shifting and CS2 was already close.</p>

<p>FaZe Clan was founded on May 30, 2010. The organization was created by Eric “CLipZ” Rivera, Jeff “House Cat” Emann, and Ben “Resistance” Christensen. At first, it was a Call of Duty content team, but the club entered Counter-Strike in January 2016, when it signed the G2 lineup and instantly started playing big tournaments. After that, FaZe went through a long road of rebuilds and “star” additions, with the main peak coming in 2022 after winning PGL Major Antwerp and picking up ESL titles.</p><h2>Faze achievements</h2><p>FaZe often delivers in the late rounds: force buys, 1vX clutches, and comebacks even after a bad pistol round.

<p>DENDELE is a Portuguese esports organization founded in August 2017. From the very start, the team competed primarily in Counter-Strike, and that discipline became their main home.

The team never had one defining "era" the way some top orgs did, but they built a reputation as one of South America's most consistent sides — always competitive, always rebuilding toward something bigger.&nbsp;</p><h3>First Roster</h3><p>In DENDELE's first lineup, Renato "nak" Nakano played as the veteran anchor, alongside Leonardo "leo_drk" Oliveira, Raphael "exit" Lacerda, Wesley "GW" Vinicius, and KHTEX. The coach from day one was Helder "coachi" Sancho, one of the few constants in the team's entire history. This squad played out of a gaming house in Lisbon and won two domestic events in their first six months: Famalicao Extreme Gaming and Superliga. In May 2018, they made it to ESL Pro League Season 7 — a serious stage for a team that young — and placed 13th, earning around $20,000. By late 2019, meyern had joined and was bought out by MIBR shortly after, marking one of the first times a bigger org came knocking for a DENDELE player.</p><h3>2024-2026 Roster</h3><p>From 2024 to 2026, DENDELE moved from frequent rebuilding toward a more defined CS2 lineup. Earlier in this period, the team rotated through players such as Jhonatan “jnt” Silva, Lucas “Lucaozy” Neves, Vinicius “n1ssim” Pereira and drg while searching for stability. By 2025, the core had settled around Victor “gafolo” Andrade, Daniel “rdnzao” Monteiro, Joao “koala” Pfeffer, Danilo “doc” Barros and Maximo “maxxkor” Cortina, with longtime coach Helder “coachi” Sancho continuing to lead from behind the team. This version of DENDELE became one of the organization’s most productive modern lineups, winning BetBoom RUSH B! Summit 2026, adding strong CCT South American results, and reaching larger international stages, including the CCT Season 3 Global Finals and IEM Cologne Major 2026 qualification.</p>

<p>BC.Game launched its Counter-Strike roster on June 25, 2024. The team got started by signing Ladislav “GuardiaN” Kovac as coach. In a short time, the tag made serious noise: it won CCT Season 2 Europe Series #19, signed Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev, brought s1mple and Denis “electroNic” Sharipov back onto the same team, and then rebuilt around SAW’s Portuguese core.</p><h2>Achievements of BC.Game</h2><p>For a young team, BC.Game already has results across quite a few tournaments.

First of all, it is worth highlighting the first roster, as well as the 2025 roster.</p><h3>Achievements of the first roster</h3><p>BC.Game’s first full roster was formed on July 1, 2024. It included Guy Trakhtman “anarkez”, Aleksandr Kyulukoski “CacaNito”, Joel Holmlund “joel”, Jonas Olofsson “Lekr0” and Luka Voit “pr1metapz”, while Ladislav Kovac “GuardiaN” became the coach. Lekr0 played as the IGL, anarkez was the team’s AWPer, and the others filled the rifler roles. The team was only starting to build chemistry, so this lineup did not take any big wins. The biggest story from that time was the match against B8 at CCT Season 2 Europe Series 7, after which joel was removed from the team because of a ban from Akros.</p><h3>2025 roster</h3><p>After Oleksandr Kostyliev “s1mple” joined on July 28, 2025, the team looked completely different in terms of star power. In the period after July 31, the roster featured Nemanja Isakovic “nexa”, pr1metapz, CacaNito, s1mple and Andreas Maasing “aNdu”, while Luka Vukovic “emi” worked as coach for a short stretch. This roster delivered quickly: it reached the final of Exort The Proving Grounds Season 3, and in September it won ESL Challenger League Season 50 Cup 2, which was BC.Game’s first tournament win with s1mple. In autumn, the lineup changes continued, and on October 18 electroNic joined the team.</p>

different rosters. The team didn’t always stay stable on the world stage, but almost every reshuffle gave them a new shot—and in the end, it pushed the org to top results in CS2.</p><h3>First roster achievements</h3><p>The first Counter-Strike roster appeared in 2015. It included: zilkenberg, maaRaa, fRost, nuka, and tsogoo. Right after the roster was formed, they tried to qualify for ESL One: Cologne 2015 through the Asian qualifier. But they didn’t pull off an upset, and finished only 5th–8th in the qualifiers. After that, the org decided to focus on local tournaments, which The Mongolz played for three years. Their best results in that period were wins at Intel Extreme Masters X - Taipei and ASUS ROG Masters 2016, plus a 7th–8th finish at ESL Pro League Season 7 - Asia-Pacific.</p><h3>2019–2022 roster</h3><p>In early May 2019, The MongolZ decided to return to the global scene. They signed a lineup with Machinegun, maaRaa, neuz, temk4wow, and Annihilation, then headed into the qualifiers for StarLadder Berlin Major 2019. They didn’t make it through, which eventually led to the organization disbanding.</p><p>In 2022, there was another attempt to conquer Counter-Strike. This time the lineup included ncl, Tsogoo, Machinegun, MagnumZ, starDUST, with Noks as coach. After six months, the squad managed to win Perfect World Arena Premier League Season 2: Challenger Division, but the main tournament was a flop. That again ended in a breakup. After that, The MongolZ returned to the world stage in 2023, starting to compete in Counter-Strike 2.</p>

In 2021, Heroic changed its base after being acquired by the Norwegian organisation Omaken Sport.</p><h2>Heroic’s achievements</h2><p>A lot of Counter-Strike fans — and plenty of pros too — would gladly take Heroic’s results.

The players brought Heroic its first notable results: they won Power-LAN 2016, International Gaming League 2016 — Grand Finals, and ESL Pro League Season 4 — Europe Relegation. On top of that, the team took silver at the League of Sharks CS:GO Championship and grabbed bronze at Northern Arena 2016 in Toronto. For a young tag, that was a seriously strong start.</p><h3>2019-2022 roster</h3><p>From 2019 to 2022, the following esports players represented the team: cadiaN (Casper Møller), stavn (Martin Lund), jabbi (Jakob Nygaard), TeSeS (Rene Madsen), sjuush (Rasmus Beck).</p><p>This five-man squad really raised Heroic’s stock across the whole scene. The team won DreamHack Open Atlanta 2019, #HomeSweetHome: Week 5, ESL One: Cologne 2020 Online — Europe, ESL Pro League Season 13, PGL Major Antwerp 2022: European RMR A, BLAST Premier: Fall European Showdown 2022, and BLAST Premier: Fall Final 2022. This roster didn’t just make deep runs on a regular basis — it kept the club among the teams everybody had to respect.</p>

Turkey

<p>FUT Esports is a Turkish esports organisation founded back in 2016 by Futbolist. The club only entered Counter-Strike on May 26th, 2025, but even in its first incomplete season, it managed to rebuild its lineup twice, win several tier-2 titles and make a run to fourth place at the ESL Pro League Season 23 Finals.</p><h2>FUT achievements</h2><p>For a young CS2 team, FUT already has a solid list of notable results. The squad’s best stretch came at the end of 2025 and the start of 2026, when the team picked up several titles. The full list of achievements is in the table below.</p><figure class="table"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"><col style="width:25%;"></colgroup><thead><tr><th style="border-style:solid;">Tournament</th><th style="border-style:solid;">Dates</th><th style="border-style:solid;">Place</th><th style="border-style:solid;">Prize money</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">Exort The Proving Grounds Season 4</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Online, September 12-24, 2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">1</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$413,20.85</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">CS Asia Championship 2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Shanghai, October 14-19, 2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">5-6</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$20,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">Digital Crusade DraculaN Season 3</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Bucharest, November 20-23, 2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">1</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$5,527.38</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">DreamHack Knockout Stockholm 2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Stockholm, November 29-30, 2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">2</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$3,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">Galaxy Battle 2025 Phase 5</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Online, November 11-December 9, 2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">1</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$25,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">IEM Kraków 2026</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Kraków, January 31-February 8, 2026</td><td style="border-style:solid;">9-12</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$16,000</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">ESL Pro League Season 23 Finals</td><td style="border-style:solid;">Stockholm, March 13-15, 2026</td><td style="border-style:solid;">4</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$22,500</td></tr><tr><td>PGL Bucharest 2026</td><td>Bucharest, April 4-11, 2026</td><td>1</td><td>$400,000</td></tr><tr><td>IEM Cologne Major 2026 Stage 3</td><td>Cologne, June 11–21, 2026</td><td>9–11th</td><td>$20,000</td></tr><tr><td>Esports World Cup 2026</td><td>Paris, August 12–23, 2026</td><td>2</td><td>$340,000</td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h2>Prize money by year</h2><p>Since FUT is still a very young team in CS2, its prize money is only listed from 2025 onward.</p><figure class="table"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col style="width:50%;"><col style="width:50%;"></colgroup><thead><tr><th style="border-style:solid;">Year</th><th style="border-style:solid;">Prize money</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">2025</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$107,697</td></tr><tr><td style="border-style:solid;">2026</td><td style="border-style:solid;">$1,029,250</td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h2>FUT roster history</h2><p>FUT’s CS2 story is still short, but it has already been packed with action. The organisation went through two different rosters in a single summer in 2025: first, a French-speaking lineup with several well-known names from the European CS2 scene, and then a younger, more ready-made core from&nbsp;<a href="/teams/navi" target="_self">NAVI</a>’s academy system.</p><h3>Achievements of the first roster</h3><p>FUT’s first roster was built around&nbsp;<a href="/players/jackz" target="_self">Audric “JACKZ” Jug</a>, Nabil “Nivera” Benrlitom,&nbsp;<a href="/players/misutaaa" target="_self">Kevin “misutaaa” Rabier</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/players/devoduvek" target="_self">David “devoduvek” Dobrosavljevic</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="/players/drac" target="_self">Etienne “drac” Salon</a>, with François-Xavier “falco” Collinet as head coach. This was the lineup with which the organisation officially entered Counter-Strike on May 26th, 2025.</p><p>This roster did not win any major trophies, but it still did its job. The team quickly put the FUT tag on the map in Europe, drew attention thanks to several familiar names and showed that the club had entered CS2 for real. One of its early results was a 5th-6th place finish at Intel epic45.</p><p>Another interesting detail was&nbsp;<a href="/players/scream" target="_self">Adil “ScreaM” Benrlitom</a>, who was introduced as the team’s sixth player and content creator.</p><h3>2025 roster</h3><p>On August 1st, 2025, the club signed the ex-NAVI Junior core:&nbsp;<a href="/players/dem0n" target="_self">Dmitry “dem0n” Miroshnichenko</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/players/cmtry" target="_self">Nikita “cmtry” Samoletov</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/players/dziugss" target="_self">Dziugas “dziugss” Steponavicius</a>,&nbsp;<a href="/players/krabeni" target="_self">Aulon “Krabeni” Fazlia</a>&nbsp;and coach Andras “coolio” Ferchak. Later, on August 22nd,&nbsp;<a href="/players/lauNX" target="_self">Lavrentiy “lauNX” Tsyrlea</a>&nbsp;joined the team. This version of the lineup turned out to be the perfect fit for FUT.</p><p>The new roster clicked fast. The team won Exort The Proving Grounds Season 4, Galaxy Battle 2025 Phase 5 and DraculaN Season 3, reached the final of DreamHack Knockout Stockholm 2025, and in 2026 qualified for IEM Kraków, PGL Cluj-Napoca and the ESL Pro League Season 23 Finals. At EPL, the lineup made the top 4, which still stands as the club’s best result in CS2 so far.</p>
