The clubs at the top of the sport are European, South American and Asian. Agent is building the American club.
A global sport with no franchise fee.
In traditional sports, a seat in a major league costs a fortune and the league decides who gets in. Counter-Strike has no franchise fee, and clubs qualify for its two annual Majors on results. That is why a club can reach the top of this sport on results alone.
The world championship came to Texas. America sold it out in six hours.
The 2025 Blast.tv Austin Major put 32 of the world’s best clubs in the Moody Center, and 65% of the crowd travelled in from out of state to be in the building.
Mainstream brands already sponsor Counter-Strike clubs.
Half of what Major fans spend belongs to the clubs.
A Major pass is the sport’s ticket. A team holo sticker is its merchandise. Valve pays 50% of that fan spending to the participating teams and players, at two Majors every year.
