During the Katowice 2019 CS:GO Championship, players have the ability to participate in The Katowice 2019 Pick'Em Challenge. Unlike previous pick’em challenges, and the first of its kind, the challenge features an objective-based system, rather than a point-based one. Stickers were no longer used in the picking process. Picking a team during the tournament selected the team, and could be freely edited and re-arranged until the event day. Undoing a pick allowed the player to choose another team, and save it right after.
