The best team of the year is determined by its ranking and overall level of play, and most platforms, including HLTV, demonstrate the results at the end of the year at the conclusion of the last season. However, there are also ESL awards, which are presented every year during IEM Katowice in the Polish city of the same name. The awards are given in three categories, Player of the Year, Team of the Year, and Breakthrough of the Year. The ceremony is held in February-March.
