All of them are built around a combination of Cologne motifs and elements related to Counter-Strike, but they differ noticeably in visual style: some focus on the city\u2019s architecture, some on a more decorative Major style, and some on direct in-game associations.<\/p>\n<p>In the image accompanying the vote, all four options are shown at once, and HLTV specifically emphasizes that the winner of this fan vote will be awarded as the official MVP medal of IEM Cologne Major 2026.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Voting will run until May 31<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Only some users are eligible to vote. HLTV clarifies that voting rights are available only to users who were registered before the publication of the article. The voting itself will run until May 31, after which the site will separately announce which of the four designs has won.<\/p>\n<p>This is an important detail, because such a restriction cuts out random vote manipulation through newly created accounts and leaves the choice to HLTV\u2019s genuinely active audience. So this is not just decorative interaction, but a more or less controlled community vote.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>For a Major in Cologne, this feels very fitting<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>IEM Cologne Major 2026 has long been presented as one of the biggest events of the year, and Cologne has almost cult status in the CS scene. Because of that, a separate themed medal for the MVP feels here not like a small extra, but like a completely natural element of the big stage.<\/p>\n<p>Especially since special awards like these function not only as a trophy for the player, but also as a visual artifact of the tournament. A few years later, it is often exactly these things that remain in memory alongside the final, the champion, and the main hero of the event.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/best-teams-the-latest-power-map-ahead-of-cologne-2026\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/55246816863_9f74b61f21_k.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Best Teams: The Latest Power Map Ahead of Cologne 2026\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/best-teams-the-latest-power-map-ahead-of-cologne-2026\">Best Teams: The Latest Power Map Ahead of Cologne 2026<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/best-teams-the-latest-power-map-ahead-of-cologne-2026\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779703590#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779703590#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1779703590#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">May 25<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>MVP award<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hltv.org\/news\/44708\/cast-your-vote-for-the-major-mvp-medal-design\">HLTV<\/a> is once again effectively turning the MVP award into part of a shared story with the community.
