Patch Notes

The biggest update since launch: new ways to compete, a completely rebuilt match experience, and a stack of tools to run smoother tournaments.

🎮 New ways to compete
Best-of-3 series — pick a format when you create a tournament (BO3 Final, from Semis, or All BO3). BO3 uses a ban/ban/pick/pick veto with a decider, plays all maps on one server, and shows live per-map scores plus the series score right on the bracket.

📺 A brand-new match page
Fully redesigned match page — a live stage rail (Scheduled → Check-in → Veto → Live → Final) that updates without reloading, an action strip that always tells you the one thing to do next, a players + server + chat side rail, and a live map radar.

Live scoreboard — per-player kills, deaths, assists, ADR and headshot % for both teams, updating in real time and staying up after the match (5v5 and 1v1).

Prominent "Server ready" box — your connect command now appears in clear sight the moment the server is ready (after the veto), automatically — no refreshing to hunt for the IP.

Map Series panel for BO3 — per-map results, current map, and series score at a glance.

Any rostered player can veto — not just captains.

GOTV demos are saved automatically after every match, and you can download the demo for any of your past games from your profile's match history.

🏆 Tournament & team tools
Edit your lineup right up to 5 minutes before kickoff — any player in the lineup can make the change, and it flows straight through to the veto, the match page, and the game server.

Exit a tournament while registration is still open — your entry fee is refunded and your slot reopens for another team.

"Your match is ready" button on the tournament page jumps you straight to your current match at the right round.

Fairer brackets — organisers can now seed the round-1 matchups (choose who plays whom) before play begins.

Refreshed tournament pages — see the registered teams with their records and submitted lineups, a "Created by" credit for the organiser, clearer prize badges ("Free Entry" / prize amount instead of a blank "Prize Pool"), and a live teams-registered counter.

🥊 Bracket & results
The champion column now correctly shows the tournament winner once the final is decided, with the winning team highlighted.

Round headers line up cleanly over their columns, and every round's matches exist from day one.

🛡️ Fair play & stability
Match servers are locked to your rostered lineup, enforced from the moment the server boots — only the players who are meant to be in a match can join.
Numerous behind-the-scenes reliability improvements to match spin-up, scoring, and live updates.

✨ Also new
A public Patch Notes page (this one!) so you can keep up with every update.
UI polish across the site — clearer connect details, "First to 13" match labels, and general tidying.

GG — see you in the server. 🎯

🎬 Update — Live Scoreboards & Match Demos
Two big features just went live:

📊 Live Match Scoreboard
Every match page now has a full scoreboard — K / D / A, ADR and headshot % for every player on both teams. It updates live during the game and stays up afterwards, so you can see exactly how it played out. Works for 5v5 and 1v1.

🎬 Download Your Match Demos
We now save the GOTV demo of every match automatically. Go to your profile → game history and hit Download Demo on any match to grab the .dem and rewatch it in your CS2 client.

🏆 Update 2 — New Ways to Compete
Our biggest update yet: two new tournament formats and a rebuilt match page.

🎯 1v1 Tournaments
Enter solo using your existing team. Dedicated aim-map pool, fixed loadouts (AK / AWP + Deagle), first to 13. Region is decided by veto — now live in all 8 regions (UK, DE, NL, SP, SWE + NA West / Central / East).

🗺️ Best-of-3 Series
Tournaments can now run BO3 — pick BO3 Final, from the Semis, or All BO3 at creation. Full ban/ban/pick/pick veto with a decider, all maps on one server, and a live series score on the bracket. Admins can pre-set BO1/BO3 on any match.

📺 Rebuilt Match Page
A live match-day view: a stage rail (Scheduled → Veto → Live → Final) that updates with no refresh, an action strip showing your next step, rosters + server + chat in one panel, a map radar, and a Map Series panel for BO3. The connect command is now easy to find the moment the map locks.

⚔️ Veto & Brackets
Any rostered player can veto now — not just captains
Cleaner bracket round headers, every round drawn from the start

GLHF, see you in the server 🎮

The platform just got a big behind-the-scenes upgrade. Tournaments now run themselves from start to finish — here's what's new:

🤖 Fully Automated Tournaments
No more waiting on an admin to keep things moving.
Vetoes start on their own the moment your match time arrives
Servers spin up automatically when both teams are ready
Brackets advance by themselves as matches finish
If a captain steps away during a veto, it auto-progresses instead of stalling

⚔️ Smarter No-Show Handling
If your opponent doesn't show, the team that turned up advances — no admin ticket needed
If neither team shows (or it's a dead heat), a winner is drawn at random to keep the bracket moving (ESEA-style)

💰 Prize Payouts & Disputes
Free tournaments: winnings now pay out instantly 🎉
Paid tournaments: winnings are held for a short safety window before release
New: file a dispute right from the tournament page. If you think a result is wrong, your team captain can submit a dispute — the prize stays held until an admin reviews it

🏆 Bracket Improvements
Teams now display correctly all the way through to the Final
Each match box links to the correct match page
New champion box showing the prize pool and the eventual winner
A bunch of visual polish and alignment fixes

🛠️ Stability
Loads of under-the-hood fixes to make tournaments smoother and more reliable.
