HLTV, together with 1xBet, has launched a unique interactive Hall of Fame map on Steam, dedicated to the first four Counter-Strike legends. Players can take on themed challenges, learn about the most iconic moments in the careers of Potti, HeatoN, GeT_RiGhT, and f0rest, and test themselves in tasks inspired by their legendary in-game plays.
Meet the Inaugural Inductees
This first version of the map is dedicated to the four Swedish legends who were the first to be inducted into the HLTV Hall of Fame. Each has their own dedicated wing where you can learn about their incredible careers and take on a challenge inspired by their unique skills.
- Tommy “Potti” Ingemarsson: The founder and leader of Ninjas in Pyjamas, one of the most dominant dynasties in Counter-Strike history. A master of the fundamentals and a true clutch player, Potti defined what it meant to be a winner.
- Emil “HeatoN” Christensen: Counter-Strike’s first global superstar. With lightning-fast reflexes and iconic plays that are still revered today, HeatoN was the face of a generation and instrumental in putting esports on the map.
- Christopher “GeT_RiGhT” Alesund: The ultimate lurker. Famous for his uncanny game sense and pioneering a playstyle that won him and NiP countless titles, GeT_RiGhT’s mastery of spray control is legendary.
- Patrik “f0rest” Lindberg: The timeless prodigy. A player whose fluid movement, incredible aim, and adaptability have allowed him to compete at the highest level for over two decades, making him one of the most respected and skilled players of all time.
Features & Challenges
Do you have what it takes to emulate the legends? Jump into four unique challenges, each designed to test a skill perfected by our inductees.
