Counter-Strike 2 · Small field

CS2 Open Practice

The same CS2 slate as the paid contest, scored the same way, for ranking only.

Payouts

Where the prize pool goes

This contest awards ranking only. The same grid decides the ranking order.

Used where the field is under 25. Five places paid.

Shown for a full field of 500. On a shorter field the places that do not exist are dropped and the rest are scaled up, so the pool is paid out in full either way. Minimum field: 2 entries — below that the contest is cancelled and every entry fee is returned.
Finishing place	Share of pool	Payout
1st	40%	—
2nd	24%	—
3rd	16%	—
4th	12%	—
