About HLTV.org Team Ranking

Need to pull CS2 team rankings from HLTV.org for a project? I've been there. Manually checking that site for the latest standings or trying to track a team's historical performance is a chore. This actor solves that by automating the whole process. You can fetch the current HLTV and Valve world rankings, or go back in time to see where teams stood on a specific date. Every scrape gives you the essentials: team name, ranking points, position change (like if a team moved up or down), the active player roster, and the team's logo. I often use the filter by country feature to focus on regional scenes, which is super handy for more targeted analysis. Whether you're building a fan site, doing data analysis for esports research, or just want to keep a personal database updated, this tool pulls clean, structured data so you can skip the copy-pasting and get straight to using the info. It's basically a direct pipeline from HLTV's rankings into your application or spreadsheet.

Important Notes

  • Rate Limiting: HLTV employs Cloudflare protection. Use the default requestDelay and avoid running too many concurrent actors. For large historical scrapes, run actors sequentially with delays.
  • Integrations: You can push the dataset to Google Sheets, webhooks, or export as JSON/CSV/Excel. Connect to it via API from your applications.
  • Legal: This actor is for educational and personal use. Respect HLTV's terms of service. The maintainer is not affiliated with HLTV.org.
  • Support: Report issues on the actor's GitHub repository. For questions about HLTV data itself, refer to HLTV.org.
