About GOCORE Pick'ems

Last updated: November 1st, 2025

Pick'ems is a prediction online contest where members compete against each other by trying to pick the winning teams in major esports matches and tournaments.

Our Pick'em system is very simple. Every correct prediction counts as +1 point, and every wrong prediction counts as -1. This means you need to be very carful how you chose your pairs where you will make your pick. Make smart predictions.

As a Pick'ems player, your goal is to pick as many winners as possible and to accumulate as many points as possible! The more winners you pick, the more likely you will win the prize.

GOCORE runs Pick'ems contests every day across two esports titles - Dota 2 and CS2. Be sure to check in daily for new fresh pick'ems and daily leaderboard updates.

What is Pick'ems?

Pick'ems is GOCORE's tipping platform.

Players can enter free daily pick'ems and pick from teams in each of the matches offered. Points are awarded for each player's winning picks, with the prize pool shared amongst the winners on weekly, monthly and yearly basis.

Who wins?

The players who accumulate more points than other contest entrants, from their winning picks, and sit atop of the leaderboard at the completion of the contest.

What are the prizes?

To learn more about the prize pool split for this contest, check out the Rewards tab.

Note: In order to be eligible for leaderboard prizes (weekly or monthly), a minimum of 50 unique participants must appear on the leaderboard for that contest period. If fewer than 20 players have competed, GOCORE reserves the right to withhold crediting of prizes and rewards for that period.

How do I make picks?

You can enter a Pick'ems contest through the Pick'ems lobbies. Pick a team from each available match offered, and then submit your picks. Please keep in mind, that for each available game (Dota 2 or CS2), we have separated lobbies.

Can I update my picks?

Once you make your picks, you must lock them and after that you cannot change them anymore. So think twice before confirming and locking your picks.

What are the match points?

Each pick has a point value associated with it, which for now is +1 and -1. For every correct pick, you will get +1 point and for every wrong pick you will get -1 point, which means 1 point will be deducted from your total points for that week or month leaderboard.

What determines my position on the ladder?

Your points total is an accumulation of the points from all the winning picks you've made. Your position on the ladder is determined by how your points total compares to the other entrants.

Where do I find the contests I've entered?

At the bottom of the every pick'em lobby, you can find your past pick'em history and check how you historically performed. Together with that, there you will find upcoming daily pick'ems for the upcoming 2 days.

How often do contests take place?

Every day we are hosting and opening new pick'em challenges. Together with that, for each game sometimes we will have special events that will focus just on certain major tournaments.
