Fans can now advance their CS:GO skills thanks to innovative new features; Coil named preferred subscription partner providing seamless access at an exclusive rate
Cologne/New York/Stockholm, August 30, 2021 – ESL Gaming, the world’s biggest esports company, has today announced the launch of the new CSGO HUB premium package. CSGO HUB, designed by ESL and initially launched as beta in August 2020, is an integrated analysis and coaching tool for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive laid out to enhance each and every players’ individual gameplay in both Valve matchmaking, FACEIT and ESEA. By activating a membership with Coil, ESL’s long term partner, fans will be able to enjoy the CSGO HUB Premium at an exclusive rate.
The upgraded version will be available to users by subscribing to the CSGO HUB Premium. A bunch of new features that have been in the works since the initial launch of the CSGO HUB Beta last year now include the following:
- One Team Badge every month
- ESEA Premium membership
- Pro videos based on your match data
- Additional Bingo cards and automatic completion
- Behind the scenes and team POV videos
- Fan Club Wars
By subscribing through Coil, the payments company dedicated to building a better business model for the web, players will unlock benefits on a number of different services, including a variety of extra features such as automatic Twitch bits awarded to their favourite streamers via the Coil Extension at no additional cost. All existing ESEA subscribers can also access CSGO HUB Premium by linking their ESL and ESEA accounts.
“After last year’s successful BETA launch, we can already track a record of 70,000 users and more than 5 million matches parsed, which is only supporting us in continuously improving our product” says Trevor Schmidt, VP Digital Products at ESL Gaming. “Together with our strong partner Coil, we can now offer the PREMIUM package at a very affordable price, making it accessible to any CS:GO fan.”
Following ESL’s brand purpose to create a complete path from “zero to hero” for any aspiring talent through the ESL Pro Tour for CS:GO, the CSGO HUB, an ESL owned product, offers the perfect complementary tool to reinforce this purpose through ESEA. ESEA represents the grassroot level of the ESL Pro Tour for CS:GO within the pyramid ecosystem.
“We’re huge fans of ESL and the ecosystem they’ve helped cultivate around CS:GO and many other esports titles. Coil’s excited to play a key role in facilitating the value exchange between the key constituents within that ecosystem.” – Jonathan Greenglass, Coil’s Chief Growth Officer.
