Evening up the playing field in CIS will improve the general health of international CS:GO scene by providing stronger competition.

WePlay! is inspired by the various national sports leagues that play throughout the year and send their best teams to the top international competitions (such as UEFA Champions League and NBA). Those leagues help to discover and grow players, encouraging teams to work harder.
