The final part of this Counter-Strike 2 tournament comes with surprises. Team Spirit couldn’t make it to the playoffs. FaZe Clan look strong, as they eliminated NAVI in the closed qualifier. Can Vitality revive their tournament win tradition?
We are pretty deep in this competitive season, and Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) esports delivers as usual! Moreover, the tournaments are now somewhat more unpredictable than they were in the first half of 2025.
The biggest drama so far was the soft downfall of Vitality — sure, with a real chance to be back on top at CS2 BLAST Open Fall 2025. Then, we could witness the power spike from Spirit, but they stumbled badly at the recent two events.
BLAST Open Fall 2025 is rather short in its phase of the final playoffs. It still is exciting! The community can witness the battle of long-term top rivals and the attempt of relative underdogs to take the trophy.
