markeloff, olofmeister, and cogu to enter HLTV Hall of Fame

HLTV.org officially announced the new members of its Counter-Strike Hall of Fame. They are Raphael "cogu" Camargo, Yegor "markeloff" Markelov, and Olof "olofmeister" Kajbjer. The formal awards ceremony will take place at the HLTV Awards on January 10, 2026, in Belgrade, Serbia.

Notably, a few days ago, HLTV revealed the list of ten nominees for the 2025 Hall of Fame. They were nominated by a special committee. Each committee member then voted for five candidates, ranking them from first to fifth, giving them five points to one point, respectively. The aforementioned esports athletes ultimately received the most votes.

As with last year, each player/coach who entered the Hall of Fame will receive a special Rolex watch, a unique HLTV profile, and a mention on the new Hall of Fame page. Only players and coaches who are no longer competing on the pro CS:GO scene are eligible for induction into the HLTV Hall of Fame. Three to five people will enter it annually.
