When two people get the same amount of kills, how is the round MVP rewarded in CS:GO? [duplicate]
This hasn't been asked yet, but what determines how or who gets an MVP award in CS:GO? After a match, there's always a little blurb that first states who got MVP first, and then a random fact (Player X got Y knife kills, Player X lasted Y rounds without dying, etc.).
Do these two factors both "factor" into getting an MVP award? Is it a set percentage of enemies you kill? Is there a priority list (ie, planting bomb, defusing, etc.)?
First off, the MVP will always be selected from the winning team. Then the MVP will be selected based on:
-
Person who completed the objective
- Hostage rescued
- Bomb planted (and detonated)
- Bomb defused
- Arms Race winner
-
If the round was won by a team getting eliminated
- Player with most kills on the winning team
- Number of assists, if two or more people have the same amount of kills
- If the score of kills + assists is still the same the player who joined the server first will be MVP (first out of the ones with equal scores, not out of all players)
-
No MVP
- Round draw
- rare, but possible: time runs out and no damage was done on the winning team
Source for most of this: CS Wiki
MVP is determined by who did the most toward playing the objective, then style, then kills, etc. For instance, blowing the bomb > 1 knife > 1 headshot > 2 kills. If a particular user is going above and beyond for the round, they get the MVP.
Objective (DEfusal or Counter-Strike hostage rescue) > Style of Kills > # of Kills. (Kills trumps style if kills >= half of team. Style trumps Objective if objective not completed. Objective trumps all if completed.)
Source is first-hand experience.
The MVP in my experience with competitive play is determined as follows:
- Must be a member of the team that won the round
- If the bomb detonated or was defused, whoever planted/defused.
- Whoever got the most kills. (4 kills guarantee MVP over defuse or plant)
- If players tied for most kills, whoever got their kills first.
By getting MVP:
- Getting most kills among your teammate
- Planting a bomb (If the above one didn't affect this)
- Defusing a bomb (Same as above, I believe)
