About the tournament

Leon.bet Masters Season 1 is a Counter-Strike 2 LAN event in the Leon.bet Masters circuit, positioned as a minor-ranked tournament. It runs from September 24 to 27, 2026 in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, with 15 teams competing. The event starts with a group stage using GSL rules, where opening matches are BO1 and the rest are BO3, then moves into a single-elimination playoff bracket with BO3 series, plus a BO3 third-place decider. The tournament awards a total prize pool of about $34k, with the winner taking the largest share, and it also carries ranking value for the teams involved. In short, this is a compact four-day CS2 event that mixes fast group-stage matches with longer playoff series to crown the champion.
