16 years ago today, a teenage NAF posted on the ESEA forums, searching for his first Open team.

Today, he's one of two Canadian players to pass $1,000,000 in earnings for CS.

jL was accused of cheating in his first guestbook messages, 7 years ago.

The first: “new player lol 1100000000% hacker”

Five years later, he won the Major with NAVI.

@JasonReynoldz Well spotted, veteran!

@eseaFranny @Jotoole1029 That's Legend!

@KTabatcikovs We did for the first several seasons!

@sekoidd @itzsagka How do you feel about this in relation to our conversation in DMs? E.g. you mentioned level 10 feels devalued and there is not a big difference between 2-3k. How do you feel that is best addressed while also not resetting players to manage inflation?

xertioN, 8 years ago, on his ESEA profile: “god like 14 year old. still not better then fluffs though”

He’s since won two ESL Pro League titles, reached three Major semi-finals, and just earned his first MVP winning IEM Beijing.

@lipex081 I'm not playing favourites!

ZywOo, the day before his 17th birthday got 37 kills against VirtusPro in ESEA League.

TaZ, NEO, pashaBiceps, Snax and byali still beat him 16–13.

The next year, ZywOo was picked up by Vitality and became one of Counter-Strike's biggest stars.

21 years ago, ESEA launched Clip of the Week: send in a highlight, the community rates it, and the best one wins a small prize.

YouTube hadn't even launched yet.

XANTARES and mixwell were grinding for mice in the ESEA RWS Leaderboard, 12 years ago.

They would go on to become the highest-earning players in CS:GO for Turkey and Spain, respectively.

@BrokenCSG @FACEITcs But it's not like nuke 2012 of 80/20 halves.

[aluminati @Aluminaticsgo]

Alongside voting, it would be great to see your feedback about why you want either option for the dev team to consider if the vote ends up being super close.

[FACEIT CS2 @FACEITcs]

Announcing the knife round vote, where you decide whether we keep the knife round or pick sides at random.

The winning option goes live as a test in Season 10 on December 09.

Vote by November 12 https://t.co/WywDprRVmT

[CS2 NEWS @cs2news]

A CS:GO player named flex was banned for cheating during a live ESEA match in 2015.

[ESL Counter-Strike @ESLCS]

The Dispatch: Season 2.

A dysfunctional team runs a forgotten DHL Esports Logistics Division where they navigate one hilarious mishap after another - chaos is just part of the job...

Watch Season 2 NOW! @DeutschePostDHL

@celeryy0 @JSPaimbot Just exploring this, what do you feel is a suitable punishment?

[aluminati @Aluminaticsgo]

Not the most exciting feature, but an important one.

Automatic server matching is a critical part of what lets us add new server locations for Season 10.

[FACEIT CS2 @FACEITcs]

The automatic server matching beta test is rolling out today to a first wave of players.

If you wish to join the test immediately, you can do so in your queue settings. You can opt out at any time before the full release with Season 10 on December 09.
