Season's Greetings

by Piggles ULTRAPRO

Welcome to Premier Season Two. If you haven't heard the news, here's what's new in Season Two. Vertigo is out, Train is in, the M4A4 is more... A4-dable... and we've tweaked the FAMAS. Season Two runs from now through the Austin Major, at which point players who meet the requirements will be awarded a Premier Season Two Medal. The color will correspond to your highest CS Rating achieved during the season, and the bars will reflect your total wins, with one bar for every 25—up to five bars. To earn your Premier Season Two Medal, you'll need an account in good standing, 25 Premier match wins, and an active CSR at the end of the season. Premier matchmaking is now open for business, so hit the queue and start racking up those wins!

To celebrate, every player who earned a CS Rating during Season One will receive a commemorative Premier Season One Medal.

Review your Season One highs and lows with graphs of your CSR and playtime, or view your map-specific stats to find areas of improvement for Season Two. As we transition to Season Two, there'll be one day of Premier downtime during which your CS Rating will be recalibrated for the new season based on your Season One performance.

Minor performance optimization for some CPU-bound cases. Follow recoil setting during spectating will now obey spectator target's crosshair setting if target's crosshair is shown. Added support for updating existing map annotations on Steam Workshop. For example use "workshop_annotation_submit 123456" to update your submission ID=123456 found in the workshop URL. Passing an ID that does not belong to you will create a brand new submission. After the first update the ID will get embedded in the annotation file and you can submit more changes without having to provide the ID again.
