Counter-Strike rewards information measured in milliseconds. Throughout the 2026 and 2027 BLAST Premier seasons, the players competing on one of Counter-Strike 2’s leading international tournament circuits will do so with Razer as its Official Headset Partner.
BLAST Premier brings the world’s top Counter-Strike teams together through Bounty, Open, and Rivals events across the world.
At the center of the partnership is the Razer BlackShark V3 Pro, currently the #1 headset used by professional players tracked by ProSettings. Developed with competitive play in mind and refined with feedback from esports professionals, it brings Razer’s latest competitive audio technology to the BLAST Premier stage.
Built for Competitive Counter-Strike
Counter-Strike is a game of precision, information, and trust.
A single footstep can reveal a rotation. One clear call can turn a retake. When rounds are decided in seconds, hearing what is happening around you and communicating it clearly can make all the difference.
The Razer BlackShark V3 Pro was built around those demands. It is the most-used headset among the professional players tracked by ProSettings.net, part of a Razer BlackShark line chosen by more than 775 pros competing at the highest level.
That adoption matters because professional players rely on their equipment when competition is on the line. The Razer BlackShark line has been refined over multiple generations with competitive play in mind, and its growing adoption among professional esports provides a real-world measure of that work.
Razer™ HyperSpeed Wireless Gen-2 keeps audio latency as low as 10 milliseconds, helping in-game sound reach you with minimal delay. Razer™ TriForce Bio-Cellulose 50 mm Drivers Gen-2 are designed for greater clarity and separation, helping details such as footsteps stand apart from the action around them.
Tournament environments introduce another challenge: everything happening outside the game. Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation helps reduce surrounding noise so you can stay focused on what you need to hear.
Clear communication matters just as much. The detachable Razer™ HyperClear Full Band 12 mm Mic captures a wider frequency range for clear, detailed voice quality, helping callouts come through when a round gets hectic.
Together, these features are built around the information that matters during competitive play, from tracking an opponent’s movement to making sure the rest of your team hears the call.
For anyone looking to sharpen their own competitive setup, the Razer BlackShark V3 Pro offers the same performance foundation used by professionals competing at the highest level.
