International Top 5 teams- 9 (consecutively)
International Top 10- 12 (consecutively)
Summary
From Guardians breath taking AWP skills to veteran players such as seized, the '13-'15 teams were certainly one of the best teams, always causing upsets against the best teams CSGO has ever seen.

Summary
Back in 2012 when CSGO was first released and had started gaining traction, VG was the first powerhouse in competative play. All these players were aspiring young rookies, and every since one of them have since moved on to reputable teams and experienced success individually. Most notable on this list is KennyS, who for several years was regarded as the best AWP player in CSGO, and even at one point the best player in the world.
[VG name was changed to Titan Esports, which eventually folded after Pro player KQLY was caught using an aimbot)

Edward
seized
Zeus
Major Championship Wins- 0
International Titles Win- 3
International Finals appearance- 5
International Top 5 teams- 8 (consecutively)
International Top 10- 11 (consecutively)
Summary
Just a quick peek at this roster would make the most seasoned CSGO pro team uneasy. Every player on this team (with the exception of Zeus) was known for impeccable accuracy at the time, and when combined with Zeus' In Game Leadership (IGL) resulted in a team that fared very well in regular competitive play, but still was dominated in Major appearances.
6. Team SoloMid 2014- 2015

dupreeh
cajunb
Xyp9x
Karrigan

Summary
Team SoloMids roster here is almost identical to the 2014 Dignitas roster, but with the addition of Karrigan and a new coach TSM quickly became a top contender in competitive play, but similar to other teams on the lesser side of the list, were quick to fold in the majors of 2014-2016 due to absolute elite teams that have yet to be revealed.
5. Virtus Pro 2013- 2015*
(* Team remained after 2015 but quickly fell off)
Roster:

byali
Snax
NEO
TaZ
Major Championship Wins- 1
International Titles Win- 7
International Finals appearance- 10
International Top 5 teams- 23
International Top 10- 29
Summary
The VP organization is by far the most "loyal" of all CSGO competitive teams, and have the stats to show why. By not changing the roster for over 3 years, VP developed perfect cohesion/team chemistry among the players, and they were able to use this as a springboard to taking a Major during some of the most competitive years of all time.

International Top 10- 11
Summary
Titan Esports was a very promising organization as of 2014, having just changed its name from VeryGames, as well as picking up the VG roster which was considered a young talent team mixed with CS (S) veterans. Unfortunately after acclaimed AWP player KQLY was caught using external hacks (aimbot in particular) the name was tainted, and eventually Titan was forced to close its doors as they had lost the funds to play their team.
