All Counter-Strike Major winners

There is truly no game like Counter-Strike, and there is no greater achievement in the iconic shooter than capturing the Major.

Since 2013, Valve has sponsored the prize pool of the game’s most illustrious tournament, giving players and teams a top accolade to chase across months, years, and careers. To date, 19 of these Majors have been put on, with 13 different organizations claiming iterations of the trophy. Astralis holds the record with four total wins and their team was the only one to win three straight. Natus Vincere, better known as NAVI, holds the record for most grand finals appearances with six, turning two of those appearances into victories.

The reigning champions are NAVI, who claimed their second trophy as an organization but hold the honor and distinction of winning the first Major in Counter-Strike 2.

Here is every single team to win a Major, in chronological order, starting with the most recent champions.
