Spring reaches the Count’s court.
As winter fades, DraculaN rises once more. Season 6 marks a transition in both the calendar, and in the atmosphere. Where frost once ruled, new life now grows. The battleground remains the same, but the air is different. Sharper, more restless and alive.
DraculaN Season 6 carries the series into spring, continuing its commitment to structured, high-level offline Counter-Strike while embracing a moment of renewal. This is where teams return from the long winter grind, sharpen their form, and test whether what survived the cold is strong enough to bloom.
The graves are familiar. The names carved into them are not forgotten. But spring has a way of reminding everyone that nothing stays buried forever, as flowers bloom on top of the burial mounds.
Open to up to 24 teams, Season 6 welcomes competitors from across the Global Region to Bucharest for another chapter of LAN combat. Old rivalries resurface, new contenders emerge, and every match becomes a question of who is ready to grow and who should have stayed underground.

The Spirit of Draculan
Season 6 preserves the soul of DraculaN while embracing transformation.
The event continues to stand for transparent competition, fair play, and offline Counter-Strike without compromise. No closed doors. No shortcuts. No artificial paths forward. Only teams, matches played on site, and results decided in real time.
