best CS: GO teams in the world<\/a> will battle it out for their slice of the $150,000 prize pool, a figure that remains unchanged since the tournament was first established.<\/p>\nThe favourites for the event include Team Liquid and the recently-improved ENCE.<\/p>\n
In addition to Team Liquid and ENCE, we will get a chance to see Ghost Gaming, NRG Esports, Renegades and Team Vitality, who will join the fight.<\/p>\n
All the spotlight is on Team Liquid, who have won the CS_Summit 2, and ENCE, who are considered to be among the best in the world, but we cannot look past NRG Esports, who have won the previous tournament (CS_Summit 3).<\/p>\n
The format of the tournament is yet to be announced, however, due to fewer number of teams, we can expect it to be modified in comparison to the previous CS_Summit tournaments, which were played in a BO3, double-elimination brackets.<\/p>\n

However, we must take into consideration NRG had it easier last time out, as they did not have to face off against Liquid or ENCE, who could prove to be a real threat on the road to 2nd title in a row.<\/p>\n
The participating teams and their current world rank:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Team Liquid; 2nd<\/li>\n
- ENCE; 5th<\/li>\n
- Renegades; 7th<\/li>\n
- Team Vitality; 10th<\/li>\n
- NRG Esports; 11th<\/li>\n
- Ghost Gaming; 31st<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Will NRG win for the second time in a row or can Team Liquid show their strength to the world?<\/p>\n
One thing is for sure \u2014 CS_Summit 4 is a tournament no CS:GO fan wants to miss. We’ll follow with great interest.<\/p>\n\n\n
