Tuesday: CS BUZZ NOW — the top 5 stories from the past seven days, ranked by Buzz Score. We read the threads, we count the noise, we make the call. Then we publish it and let you tell us if we got it wrong.
Friday: CS BUZZ RETRO — one story every week from CS's 27-year history. A moment, a controversy, a result that still gets argued about. Put into context and told properly.
Get an Audeze Maxwell 2 with CS BUZZ
CS BUZZ is the twice-weekly newsletter for the Counter-Strike community — NOW for what's buzzing this week, RETRO for the moments that made the game. We want you to participate to make it even more buzzing. And if you do you have the chance to get an Audeze Maxwell 2 from us!
How it works Throughout the launch, we're giving away Audeze Maxwell 2 headsets to subscribers who help us. To enter:
Subscribe to CS BUZZ - free, takes ten seconds, just click below.
Check your welcome email - we'll ask for your opinion: e.g. "Which retro CS moment should we cover?" Or ”Who should be on the weekly BUZZ list and why?"
Reply with your answer. Our editorial team reads every entry and picks the standout answers. The best ones get a headset. There's no random draw — we choose subscribers on the strength of their answer. So make it a good one. (And don't worry, "good" doesn't mean long — a single sharp line beats a rambling essay.) Your answers do double duty: they enter you to get a headset, and they help us decide what to cover in RETRO and who should be on the BUZZ list. We want to write about what you care about.
(If you already have signed up for CS BUZZ, you can just hit reply on the newsletter you receive and share your thoughts. Good luck!)
