G2 Esports in full force and Virtus.pro without dastan. Predictions for BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024
It’s time for the last tournament of the first half of the Counter-Strike 2 competitive season. The best teams from around the world will meet in the last battle at BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024 in London, after which they will have a well-deserved month-long vacation. This time the tournament was again not without problems with visas, but they still managed to be resolved in time. The most important player of G2 Esports, Ilya m0NESY Osipov, might not have made it to the championship. Team coach Wiktor TaZ Wojtas would speak instead. However, everything worked out and the sniper received a visa literally a day before the championship. This means that we will see G2 in full combat capability. In this material we will discuss the upcoming BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024, and also determine which teams have the best chance of winning.
Will G2 Esports be able to perform well after IEM Dallas 2024?
In G2 Esports, almost any player could be replaced, except for Ilya m0NESY Osipov and Nikola NiKo Kovac, so that she would have a chance of a good performance. But without their sniper, who is a key element in the team’s victories, they would not even have a chance to advance from the group. However, everything worked out and G2 will not have to play with a coach. After IEM Dallas 2024, everyone is interested in the question of whether the team will be able to show the same level, but together with Rasmus HooXi Nielsen. However, the team most likely had been training without their sniper for some time, because getting a visa was almost impossible. This situation definitely spoiled the training process of G2 Esports and it will not approach the tournament in full readiness, but the personal performance of its players may still be enough in most matches. The team’s first opponent will be Team Spirit, which is also in its best form and after the adventures with the visa, it will be difficult for G2 to hold the first match in full focus, it is worth noting that Ilya m0NESY Osipov may not be in time for the first game and then it will be instead of him will be played by Wiktor TaZ Wojtas. In any case, in the debut match Team Spirit has more chances, and already in the lower bracket G2 Esports will be able to show their full potential and reach the playoffs.
Virtus.pro is trained by an analyst. Any chance?
Virtus.pro finally said goodbye to long-stay coach Dastan dastan Akbaev. However, the new coach Andrey Xoma Mironenko will not have time to prepare the team for BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024; analyst Pavel PASHANOJ Legostaev took up this task. It is unlikely that he will be able to perform well with the club at such a big championship, because he has no experience in coaching. Also, he is unlikely to be able to correct the problems that exist in the composition. It will be quite difficult for Virtus.pro to leave the group: after the first match with Team Vitality, they will most likely go to the final of the lower bracket, where they will meet with G2 Esports. If by this time, Ilya m0NESY Osipov’s roster is ready to play at full capacity, VP will go on vacation and full training with the new roster.
Natus Vincere's last chance to prove its power
Natus Vincere completely lost all credibility after winning PGL Major Copenhagen 2024. The team failed all tournaments after the major and they are already approaching BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024 as an outsider. So far there seems to be no reason for NAVI to be successful at the last tournament of the season, but they all have a chance to prove otherwise and show their best game. They will begin their performance with a match against Astralis, where there is no clear favorite. If the team manages to start the tournament with a victory, they have a chance to compete with FaZe Clan in the winners’ final, however, Natus Vincere must leave the lower bracket in any case, because SAW will be waiting for them there, which poses no threat.
FaZe Clan is a game of last resort
Don’t expect a decent performance from FaZe Clan either. The team is in a long decline and completely devastated. She has no strength left to continue competing in tournaments and the players are already dreaming of quickly getting a well-deserved vacation. FaZe Clan had a stunning start to the season, so blaming them for their poor recent performances is pointless. As always, at BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024 the team must reach the playoffs, but it will be too difficult to compete for the trophy. But Finn karrigan Andersen is famous for the fact that at the last moment he can always find the last strength and motivation for the team to surprise everyone and again show the best form of FaZe. But this is unlikely to be enough to compete with Team Vitality and Team Spirit now. After the players leave, we will continue to watch the same FaZe Clan that dominated for several months.
The main favorites of BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024
Team Vitality can be considered the main favorite of BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024. The team took second place in the last two championships, which means that it is already close to its best form and is ready to take a new trophy very soon. But, as always, everything will depend on the individual performance of Mathieu ZywOo Herbaut, and lately he has not been playing very consistently. If he fails in important moments, Team Vitality will again be left with nothing.
It is worth noting that Vitality’s main opponent will also play with them in the same group. Against the backdrop of problems for other teams, Team Spirit also looks like the strongest team at BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024. The successful performance of both teams in the playoffs will directly depend on the final of the upper bracket, into which they both must qualify. It will be easier for one of the teams to get to the finish line, but the second, most likely, will also be able to make it this way from the quarterfinals and we will see a rematch between Team Vitality and Team Spirit in the grand finals.
Team Vitality and Team Spirit have the best chances of triumph in the last tournament of the season. Most likely, they will play together in the grand final of BLAST Premier: Spring Final 2024. The teams perform at almost the same level and the stronger one will be the one that better adapts to the tournament and reveals itself to its full potential. G2 Esports may also compete with them, which will be clearly motivated by playing in full force. The championship promises to be interesting, because after it we will have to wait for the Esports World Cup 2024 until July 17.
