The BLAST circuit returns home to Denmark for the next Rivals tournament of 2025.
Season 1 of BLAST Rivals Spring 2025 is upon us with eight teams and a stellar talent team descending upon Denmark's capital, Copenhagen, for a shot at the lion's share of $350,000 USD.
Here's a look at the teams attending the big event, plus a list of the talent bringing us the action at home from April 30 to May 4!
All teams attending BLAST Rivals Spring 2025
Here's a breakdown of the teams showing off at BLAST Rivals Spring 2025:
- VRS Invites (as at March 25)
- Team Spirit
- Team Vitality
- MOUZ
- FaZe Clan
- Wildcards
- Europe: Falcons
- North America: Wildcard
- South America: paiN
- Asia: FlyQuest
Vitality have stormed ahead and retain a record win streak after wins at IEM Melbourne and ESL Pro League Season 21, but at the time VRS invites went out, it was Spirit who stood at the summit of the rankings.
Since then, Spirit took a little time off. The squad exited during the quarterfinals of their last two events, then went behind closed doors for some time off. Danil "donk" Kryshkovets and co. haven't been seen in April, so we're expecting a refreshed and recharged Spirit here at BLAST Rivals Spring.
MOUZ and FaZe Clan round out the invites. MOUZ will be looking to bounce back from their shock loss to Falcons in Melbourne, while FaZe is desperate to get back into the winners circle after a dismal start to 2025.
Falcons, now with Ilya "m0NESY" Osipov and fresh off a monster grand final in Melbourne, lead the wildcard invites with paiN, Wildcard, and FlyQuest following suit. Five of the teams in attendance are fresh off a plane from Australia, meaning there will be plenty of fatigue on the server — and potential upsets to consider!
