Counter-Strike 2 received a new update that introduced a new rating system (CS Rating) which is used to place you on the game’s leaderboards. The new leaderboard system was introduced in the 31st August patch and if you are not sure how the new system works, we have a detailed guide below that answers all of your possible questions.
What is CS Rating?
Your CS Rating is a visible measurement of your Counter-Strike performance, and it will determine where you stand on global and regional leaderboards. To get your CS Rating, play matches in the updated Premier mode (Active Duty Pick-Ban competitive mode) either on your own or with your friends.
