About the tournament

Stake Ranked Episode 4 is a Counter-Strike 2 Tier-2 event in the Stake Ranked circuit, a VRS-linked LAN series built to give emerging teams a route toward top-level play. The event follows the usual structure: open qualifiers, a 16-team closed qualifier, then an 8-team LAN finals bracket played in double-elimination best-of-three matches. Episode 4 runs from October 1 to 4, 2026. It features a minimum $100,000 prize pool, with VRS points also on the line.
