Read off the live product on 1 September 2026. Figures move; the date does not.
A competitive esports platform for PUBG on Xbox and PlayStation 5, built to replace the scattered Discord servers and spreadsheets European console teams were using to run competition. It handles signups and brackets, logs every match, and computes a custom CGZ Rating from real performance across lobbies, broken down per map.

What it proves
A rating algorithm fed straight from the official game API, so the table is built from what happened rather than from what somebody reported.
OutcomeResults stopped being a matter of opinion.
CGZ, as it is today
Full-page captures of the live site, 1 September 2026. Opens in a new tab.
What CGZ does
Weekly tournaments for PUBG on Xbox and PS5.
Competition runs in tiers: a CPE Scrim and CPT Divisions 1, 2 and 3, with signups opening on the site.
Live CGZ rankings, with a top teams table and the day's MVP on the front page.
A 1v1 Kill Race, alongside the team competition.
Free PUBG stats tracking, and a CGZ rating for anyone who has played three matches: the front page shows the top ten and where a new player starts.
Recent results, the next event and the latest news are all on the front page; the current post covers CGZ v3, a new look with deeper stats.

Inside the CGZ build
Where it started
European PUBG console teams were running real competition on Discord servers and shared spreadsheets. Results got argued over because nobody held a single record, and organisers retyped match data by hand every week.
How it was built
Match data comes straight from the official PUBG API and every round is logged, so the rating is computed from actual performance rather than reported scores. Discord OAuth, because that is the identity the community already has.
What shipped
Tournaments, brackets and rosters in one place, with per-map statistics across Erangel, Miramar and Taego, a drop map that plots where every registered team lands, filtered by division, and live leaderboards that settle the argument.
What it has become
The front page now carries the competition as it stands: a CPE Scrim and three CPT divisions, with signups open, recent results, the next event and the CGZ rankings, with a top teams table and the day's MVP alongside. A member signs in with Discord, joins a team and plays through the tournaments and scrims, with match predictions and ranked leaderboards on top. The latest news post is CGZ v3, a new look with deeper stats. It runs on essential cookies only, no tracking, no analytics and no ads, which the site says in its own banner.
