CS2 Map Meta Stats
Competitive map statistics aggregated from professional teams — pick rates, ban rates, side balance, and more.
How the CS2 map meta is measured
Counter-Strike 2 has seven active duty maps in the competitive pool: Mirage, Inferno, Nuke, Anubis, Ancient, Dust 2, and Cache. Each is contested with a veto system where teams alternately ban and pick maps before a series begins. The "meta" refers to which maps are being picked, banned, and won most often at the pro level — and it shifts whenever Valve patches a map or rotates the pool.
What this page tracks
- Pick rate — how often each map is selected when it survives the veto
- Ban rate — how often each map is removed in the first ban phase
- CT-side win rate — percentage of rounds won by the Counter-Terrorist side
- T-side win rate — percentage of rounds won by the Terrorist side
- Side balance — how skewed each map currently is (a map at 60% CT is "CT-favoured")
- Recent trend — how each metric has changed over the last 30 days
Why it matters
Map meta data is the foundation of pro-level draft strategy. Teams ban maps where their opponents have a strong T-side win rate, pick maps with favourable side balance, and adapt their playstyles to whichever maps are currently dominant. Watching the meta shift after a Valve patch — such as Inferno's 2025 mid-round rebalance — gives you a tactical edge whether you're playing the game or forecasting matches.
