Denmark became the leader in players with the tenth level of FACEIT in Europe.
Portal csgohaven.com conducted research and counted the number of accounts on FACEIT with different ranks. Information about the distribution of accounts by level in Europe and separately in some countries was published. Denmark is the leader in the number of players at the tenth level, and Estonia is in second place. Finland, Sweden, and Switzerland were also among the leaders.
Is Denmark the main country for CS:GO?
But why are there so many high-level players in Denmark? The key is that Counter-Strike is incredibly popular in the Scandinavian countries, especially in Denmark. To a large extent, this happened thanks to esports because there was always a top Danish team on the professional CS scene.
Once it was mTw, then Astralis, and now Heroic. Such an example cannot but inspire, and more and more people became interested in CS:GO precisely as a cybersport discipline and developed in it. In general, CS is very popular in Denmark. One of the popular jokes about the country has become the fact that at the first meeting, fathers ask their daughters' boyfriends about their FACEIT level.
The only regularity that is not observed in this case is the small number of young talents on the Danish scene. Astralis already managed to try out three young players, and none lived up to the team's expectations. However, the problem here may be that the Danish club needs a stronger ecosystem for developing young players.
What other countries are on the list of best?
In addition to Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, and Switzerland, they have also made it to the top countries in terms of players with the tenth FACEIT level. Finland and Sweden got into this top for the same reason as Denmark - CS is very popular in Scandinavian countries.
Speaking of Estonia, this country has its star Robin ropz Kol, who attracts players to play at a high level. In the case of Switzerland, the general level of the game is challenging to explain, there are few professionals from this country, but perhaps we are waiting for an influx of young talents from this country.
These statistics can show which countries will present more young players on the scene in the future. Therefore, we await performers from Switzerland, Estonia, and Scandinavian countries.
