Where can I watch?
Don't want to play yourself, but would rather watch the pros shoot? No problem. The two qualifiers of the Pro tournament and the two finals of the Pro and Grümpi tournaments will be broadcast live on Twitch and Youtube.
The streams are moderated by our "Counter-Strike" fan Simon Balissat, among others. Ballermann Simon already cast the Playground Cup Vol. 5 with "CS:GO" two years ago. Now he is making his comeback for the sequel.
In the Digitec Playground Playlist you can already watch past Cups with "CS:GO", "Apex Legends" and other games.
