ESWC, Electronic Sports World Cup, byrjaði á Miðvikudaginn 7. Júlí. Keppnin er haldin í Frakklandi og eru samankomin öll bestu counter-strike lið heims. Eftir fyrsta daginn eru nokkur óvænt úrslit eins og við sjáum fyrir neðan.

Í Mappool eru einungis 4 kort (de_train, de_dust2, de_inferno, de_nuke) og er notað svokallað Vito kerfi. Það þýðir að hvert lið getur sett inn eitt kort sem það spilar aldrei í keppninni. Þau kort sem að liðin sem mætast hafa valið að hafna eru tekin úr mappool fyrir þann leik og er spilað kort að handahófi af þeim sem eftir eru. T.d. A hafnar de_nuke og B hafnar de_dust2 þá er spilað annaðhvort de_train eða de_inferno.

Spilað er MR12 í þetta skipti og ef jafnt er þá verður framlengt 2x3 round.

Fyrsti hluti er riðlakeppni með 5-6 lið í hverjum riðli. Efstu 2 sætin úr hverjum riðli komast áfram, sem verður riðlakeppni með 4 liðum í hverjum riðli.
