cs_summit 5 announced

31/10/2019 - 20:51

cs_summit will return with its fifth edition on December 12-15, the organizers have announced.

The tournament will once again be held at the Summit studios in Los Angeles, California, where a so far unspecified number of teams will battle for a $150,000 prize pot, which also remains unchanged from the previous editions.

The event's dates clash with the BLAST Pro Series Global Final, taking place on December 13-14, for which Astralis, Liquid, and FaZe have so far qualified, with NiP being a strong candidate to lock down the final spot.

Vitality won cs_summit 4 over Liquid

The fourth edition of the tournament, which was held in late May, marked an important milestone in the rise of Vitality, who beat Liquid to the title to reach the top-five of HLTV.org's team ranking, where they remained for the majority of the following five months.

Yes!! tier 1 event for sure

2019-10-31 21:25

+1 after I saw one of the old summit ones live, I thought it was gonna be a great event, but they're all shit

expected

who cars

2019-10-31 20:56

FURIA, please

Tier 2 event even casters don't care about matches

It’s intended to be more of an open and chill tournament. It’s a good relaxing break from the season

2019-10-31 21:09

+1 I find it very refreshing

2019-10-31 21:15

Nice little laid back chill event. Will tune in for sure :)

First invite: 100Thieves

Invite ENCE please!

2019-10-31 20:59

summi1g

wowwww cant wait to hear moses, pimp, spunj, and anders at this event too, so exciting wow

getting excited for pimp, sad

2019-11-01 14:02

sarcasm i fucking hate pimp, spunj, moses and anders

FUCK I should've known with the "wow", but what's wrong with Anders, and especially Moses?

2019-11-01 14:03

moses = bad voice for casting, tries to be funny but isnt anders = washed up and doesnt care anymore. also thinks he's a comedian like moses

2019-11-01 14:04

Ence 100T EG fnatic Vitality OG

2019-10-31 21:00

They’ll probably invite a tier 4 Na team for some reason so don’t forget that

2019-10-31 21:06

I actually thought of that while writing it, probably means that ence is gone

OG won't exist in time for this event lol

2019-10-31 22:01

Yes it will sources: trust me veli

2019-10-31 22:05

BEN’S ANIME TEAM

2019-10-31 21:08

I do like Ben's Anime Team. Any team with Steel on it I'm ok with. Reminder that he's the player we lost the most with the iBP bans. Not Swag.

2019-10-31 22:04

no, swag was definitely the bigger loss people forget how bad NA CS was compared to EU CS at the time, yet brax would nearly always put up fantastic numbers against them he was the biggest talent NA had, and he got banned steel & dazed were also big losses, but IMO not as big

We were missing IGL's here until basically last year when Daps and Nitro emerged. Sean hasn't been super relevant since 2015 and ultimately he didn't have the right talent mix. In other words while I agree Swag was a big loss and probably set the scene back a year on it's own I think long term Steel was the biggest missing asset. He is servicable as a fragger even at 28 versus T1 European teams and he eats up T2 NA teams. Just one guys opinion though and I can totally see why most people would value the potential of a 17 year old kid much higher. And he probably would have had about three years to himself on NA's best rifler list had he been allowed to compete.

EZ FOR EG

2019-10-31 21:01

nice, best event

2019-10-31 21:02

looking forward to this after the fun that smash summit 2

2019-10-31 21:03

100t Avangar Mibr Vitality Fnatic EG

EZ4EG

Worst tournament

2019-10-31 21:12

So: 100T MiBR Vitality EG Ence Fnatic Maybe?

2019-10-31 21:14

Dont invite clown9 Thanks

2019-10-31 21:16

I liked the first 2 cs_summit events. After that, it started to go downhill. I wish the top 3 teams in the world would attend this lower tier LAN. Just get 3/4 of the top 4 in this event and it will be great..

2019-10-31 21:17

c9 gets invite

2019-10-31 21:24

Funny event that has no actual value tbh

2019-10-31 21:29

+11111111

2019-10-31 21:30

it's like a mini bootcamp with a prizepool, orgs like that

2019-11-01 05:32

Bwoah some teams will be in Blast series global finals so.. astralis liquid, FaZe and mostl likely NiP wont be there. So Vitality, C9, Fnatic, EG, Mouz, NaVi, 100T, G2 ? maybe swap C9 for avangar or ENCE i dunno

2019-10-31 21:42

Shaaarksss

2019-10-31 21:45

VP deserves to get invited if they win atlanta.

2019-10-31 21:50

This is always my favorite tournament

2019-10-31 21:54

can we just host it at my house? i got refreshments

EZ4AVANGAR

2019-10-31 22:06

I do like this tournament's "format" for lack of a better term. It's a pretty chill setting and a lot of teams that won Summit went onto bigger and better things afterward. Can be a coming out party of sorts. Certainly was for Liquid then Vitality.

2019-10-31 22:07

invite mibr and this will be tier 1.

2019-10-31 22:20

Invite Virtus.pro

2019-10-31 22:24

Best event is back

2019-10-31 22:28

Love the format for cs_summit :)

2019-10-31 23:04

Why do NiP still geting invites when they have no real threat to any of those teams on the team list so far?

2019-11-01 00:39

Invite Vitality and G2

2019-11-01 00:56

Invite asia team tyloo/vici

2019-11-01 00:57

Somehow steel's team will be invited to this just because.

2019-11-01 02:33

I would love to see it, just for the fun of it. This tournament is more laid back, and I'm there for the laughs and content, and some laid back games. Wouldn't mind watching steel tbh, even if he will lose all the games.
