CS:GO map pool and Prime matchmaking changes in January 24 update \u2013 patch notes If you\u2019re a fan of FMPONE\u2019s \u2018Subzero\u2019 map in CS:GO, you\u2019ll probably be disappointed to hear that it was one of the casualties of the January 24 1.36.7.4 patch. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about the latest update. With the IEM Katowice Major just around the corners, and the Minors already in full swing, fans weren\u2019t expecting a great deal of game changing tweaks in the latest patch, but it still features some interesting notes. First and foremost, Subzero has been removed from the matchmaking pool along with Austria. The news is likely to come as a blow to FMPONE, the map designer that spent a good portion of 2018 painstakingly working on his Subzero project. Zoo and Abbey replace the outgoing maps in the official matchmaking pool and a new version of Vertigo has been added to Wingman. Biome has also received some love with improved performance and various layout changes. Other changes include the decision to make all accounts automatically become Prime members after hitting Lieutenant Rank 21 and some audio tweaks.
