Since its introduction, the Counter-Strike franchise has been the very definition of the competitive first person shooter category in eSports. In recent years, the game has exploded in popularity and reach, with competitions selling out stadiums and setting new viewership records on streaming platforms. Millions of players log on to the Steam Platform each month to see if they've got what it takes. Now, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is poised to take competitive video games, and eSports, to the next tier with the introduction of the ELEAGUE. Top teams will take part in two 10 week seasons in 2016, each crowning a grand champion.
