ESL Pro League Season 24 Teams: Full CS2 Lineup
ESL has confirmed all 16 teams for ESL Pro League Season 24. Spirit, Falcons, MOUZ, Vitality and NAVI will compete in Katowice.
Ahead of EWC 2026, Winio analyzed every map played at completed tier-1 tournaments during the 2026 season. Nearly half of the entire sample came from just two maps: Dust2 and Mirage.
Teams played 946 maps across the current competitive pool. Dust2 and Mirage accounted for 450 of them - 47.6% of the total.
This gives teams and analysts a substantial amount of data on the two most popular maps. Cache sits at the opposite end of the spectrum: it has appeared only once at a completed tier-1 event, making it the biggest unknown heading into EWC.
| Map | Maps played | Best team | Record | Win rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dust2 | 232 | Vitality | 19:4 | 83% |
| Mirage | 218 | Legacy | 7:2 | 78% |
| Inferno | 154 | Vitality | 13:3 | 81% |
| Nuke | 142 | Vitality | 12:2 | 86% |
| Ancient | 137 | Astralis | 11:2 | 85% |
| Anubis | 62 | Falcons | 8:2 | 80% |
| Cache | 1 | FaZe | 1:0 | 100% |
To identify the strongest team on each map, we used a minimum sample of eight maps. Cache is the only exception because it has been played just once at a completed tier-1 tournament.
FaZe defeated Spirit on Cache at BLAST Bounty, but a single result is not enough to establish a genuine season leader.
Winio considers map performance, current form, roster changes, opponent strength, and other match-specific factors when calculating AI-powered probabilities.
