At PvPRO you can play your CS:GO Games and earn Coins everyday. Choose the Game you want, join with friends or Solo and wait for our matchmaking system to fill up the slots. Once the teams are set up you will see the Accept Game Button, which you will need to click in order for the game to start. Once the server is ready, the Play Game Button will bring a pop up, from which you can copy the server information to your console, or Click Play and directly open your CS:GO Client.
When you first join PvPRO, we will place you in games in order to determine your skill level. We have a proprietary algorithm that quickly picks up individual performance to ensure fair competition is maintained. Joining Games of Any Division, the team matchmaking will automatically balance teams so that both sides have an equal skill level.

If everyone has accepted the game and you are waiting for players, they have 180 seconds to join the server. After the given time has passed if the teams aren't full, the game will disband and all entry fees (coins) returned.

Note: In 1v1 Games if a Player accepts the game and doesn't log in to the server, he will automatically lose the game.

Yes. All Games will start with a Knife Round. The winning team has 1 minute to decide sides by typing !stay or !swap via the game chat. Once you have done that the game begins and scores start to count.
If the teams are tied after max Rounds have been reached, then an Overtime of 6 rounds (unless otherwise stated) is played. Overtime is repeated until one side reaches 4 (unless otherwise stated) round wins.
Of course, but all private games must have an entry fee (coins). Just set the game you want to play, and either invite players to join, or share the password with others.

PvPRO Tournaments are played according to competitive format rules. Join a tournament, follow on screen commands into your game and we take care of the rest. We have solo join and team events, unique formats for Tournaments and the specific rules can be found at each Tournament Page.

Help us do it!

  • Do not share the Tournament code you are given with anyone, ever!
  • Do not start a game without checking that all the correct teammates/opponents are in the game lobby and ready to start the game. Failing to do so, will cancel your game or count as a loss. There will be no refund, so be careful.
  • From the time you receive your Tournament Code, all players have 5 minutes to join and start the game.
    If someone is missing, you need to report them by clicking "My opponent didnt show up" .
    They have another five minutes to join and start the game or they lose.
  • If they show within that time frame, you may start the game.

  • DO NOT start the game unless all players are there.

  • During a Tournament, if for any reason you need to leave, simply do not accept the next round.
    If you do accept and not show up, you will receive ban points. There will be no refunds for any reason.
  • Smurfing & Cheating are strictly prohibited and will result in a permanent and irrevocable ban from PvPRO.
  • In the event that a winner is not eligible for trades after pressing the claim reward button, he/she will have 30 minutes to fix the error or said reward will be forfeited.

We are gamers too, we know who is smurfing... Just don't do it.

"Leagues" are a ladder system, where you gain points for every game, on any mode you play at Pvpro; whether that is a Single Game, Tournament Game, free or paid.

The amount of points you win or lose, depend on the relative ELO point difference with your opponents and your overall performance in the game.

At the end of the league duration, the rewards are being awarded based on the points earned.

Reputation points are used to rank players according to their behavior and gaming etiquette on PvPRO. Loss of points may result in temporary or even permanent bans in order to protect the community from unsportsmanlike conduct.

There are a number of actions that may cause losing or winning reputations points. Missing accept buttons, killing teammates, leaving the server before the game ends, trolling/afking/griefing are among the actions that may cause loss of points. Playing consecutive games without losing points, getting recommendations by other players or moderators will award points.

The ban system is progressive and starts with 8 hour bans for the first 10 points lost, and can gradually lead up to permanent bans. We suggest you avoid losing points if you want to be a member of the PvPRO community.

Special events and raffles will be available for players who haven't lost reputation points. In addition, only players with full reputation points will be considered for moderator status.

No. We plan on improving the reputation system as we gather more data in order to make sure that friendly and good behavior is rewarded, whilst players who are disrupting the PvPRO experience get penalized accordingly.
