When CS2 launched, I wanted to run a private tournament for my friends at Jagex. We had quite a few teams interested and so needed at least 12 servers to accomodate all of the parallel games.

Rather than spinning and configuring 12 VMs, my preference was to use AWS Fargate, but for that I would need a container image for the CS2 dedicated server.

None existed, so I made one, which has been adopted as the communities preferred server image.
