Crypto casino Thunderpick has unveiled a $1 million Counter-Strike 2 tournament, providing the best esports teams in the world with another chance to showcase their skills. The so-called Thunderpick World Championship 2024 will kick off on April 1 and will run until October.
As the title suggests, the championship will welcome professional esports teams from all over the world. As a result, the crypto casino will host six qualifier rounds across three different global regions, including Europe, North America and South America. The qualifiers will be remote events that will be held locally.
Details about the schedule of the qualifier events are set to be published at a later date on Thunderpick’s official website.
This is not the first time Thunderpick has graced the esports sector with such a tournament. The previous edition of the Thunderpick World Championship saw FaZe Clan, one of the most influential esports organizations in the world, dominate the finals.
Kelly Sanders, Thunderpick’s head of strategy, promised that the Thunderpick World Championship 2024 will be “one of the most exciting tournaments of the year.” She said that the event will feature many of the fan-favorite CS teams as they battle it out for a huge prize.
This tournament not only underscores our dedication to the diverse and growing esports community but also marks a new milestone in our event series.
