USA - The bullets start flying this week for CEVO Professional CS:Source Season 4, a season that promises to be the most competitive yet. Fourteen teams will compete in the 7 week season with two matches per week starting in late August and ending in early October.

All 6 CGS teams will be competing with 8 of the top CS:Source teams for a shot at some of the $10,000 dollars in prize money. In a somewhat controversial decision, CEVO admins decided to enter all CGS teams into the CEVO P league, despite the fact that only Complexity LA, Carolina Core, and San Francisco Optx earned their spots through the placement tournament or automatic berth for finishing in the top 3 during the previous season.

This CEVO P season takes on more importance than previous seasons because CGS teams will be looking to maintain and hone their skills while other teams are looking to practice against the best and hopefully gain the skills and confidence to earn a spot in CGS season 2.

CEVO Map Rotation:

Week 1: De_Contra
Week 2: De_Dust2
Week 3: De_Season
Week 4: De_Inferno
Week 5: De_Train
Week 6: De_Russka
Week 7: De_Nuke

CEVO Professional will use the CGS rule set, just as was used during season 3.

CGS Rule Set:

* 1:20 Round Time
* $16,000 Start Money
* 1 round, sudden death overtime (subject to change during the regular season)
* 9 Rounds Per Half
* First team to win 10 rounds, wins the match

Prize Distribution:

1st Place: $5,000
2nd Place: $3,500
3rd Place: $1,500
