Before placing your predictions, be sure to review the matchups before getting into them. An insider tip is to check out the odds on these match-ups on our Melbet Betting Platform to determine the favorites and underdogs before setting your rankings. Once you’ve identified the favorites and underdogs, you should consider previous head-to-head stats and player availability.
The Counter-Strike 2 Pick’em challenge at the Intel Extreme Masters also features the classic two-interaction prediction format. The first interaction includes predictions on the play-ins and ground stage, while the second covers only the playoffs. After reviewing the match-ups, users initiate the first interaction by predicting the 8 teams advancing to the next stage.
Users can easily predict the rankings of IEM Cologne 2024 by click-dragging the teams into the blank table shown or simply tapping the team logos in order if you are on mobile. With this, predict the 8 teams of the 16 play-in teams that will participate in the group stage.
Once the play-ins are completed and all points are added to your account, the group stage is arranged, and users can proceed to set their rankings. The group stage consists of the 8 teams advancing from the play-ins and automatically qualified teams. Remember that predicting the group stage winners is suspended until the play-ins are completed and any awarded points have been added to your account. Only 6 teams of the 16 in the group stage will proceed to the Playoffs at the LANXESS arena in Germany.
Once the group stages are completed and the playoff bracket is known, players only need to predict the winners of each match up to the champion of the whole tournament. It does not matter if you missed the first interaction; you can still join in on the fun at this stage and win any of our awesome prizes. Remember always to review your selections before submission, as the action can’t be canceled.

What is Counter-Strike 2 Pick’em?
Pick’em Counter-Strike 2 is a prediction-based giveaway system that serves as a fantasy league for gamers and esports fans and rewards their knowledge of the first-person tactical shooter game. With CS2 Pickem, gamers predict the winners of each stage in a tournament, earning points to claim a share of a prize pool that includes numerous in-game and real-life rewards.
Unlike traditional sports tournaments or games, where individual skill determines success, Pick’em CS2 focuses on strategic prediction. The primary objective is to accurately predict which teams will win upcoming matches.
Scoring is typically based on the number of correct picks, with the player accumulating the most points emerging as the winner. While the specific championships for 2024 are subject to change, key esports tournaments like the Majors and regional leagues will likely feature Pick’em CS2 challenges.
CS2 IEM Cologne Pick’Em 2024
The Intel Extreme Masters is reputed to be the longest-running global professional gaming tour. Some gamers are wondering: is IEM Cologne a Major? Not this year, but that doesn’t make the event any less spectacular. However, IEM Cologne 2023 became the most popular non-Major CS2 tournament in 2023.
Although the tour has featured other games in the past, Counter-Strike remains one of the competition’s important titles. Although there aren’t a fixed number of IEM tournaments in a year, IEM Katowice and IEM Cologne are major series events with the largest prize pool and fan base.
IEM Cologne, often called the “Cathedral of Counter-Strike,” was reported to have had 700,000 peak viewers in 2023, ranking it as the second most-watched CS: GO event in the year. This year marks the transition from CS: GO to CS2 IEM Cologne, promising better server optimizations, brighter maps, and an updated UI.
