Look Sports Media – British Counter-Strike prodigy William "mezii" Merriman and his Team Vitality squad have once again etched their names into history, securing the BLAST Rivals Spring 2025 championship. This victory, hot on the heels of their ESL Grand Slam and BLAST Open Spring 2025 triumphs, further solidifies their claim as the world’s dominant Counter-Strike force. Their relentless march through the tournament saw them dismantle Wildcard and MOUZ in the group stage before overcoming a spirited Team Spirit in the semifinals.
The Grand Final pitted Vitality against the formidable Team Falcons, a clash of titans that captivated a massive audience. A nail-biting series went down to the wire, culminating in a decisive victory on Nuke. Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut’s incredible 4k in the opening pistol round of the final map set the tone, contributing to his 25th tournament MVP award and fueling Vitality’s momentum. The team’s ability to translate individual brilliance into cohesive team play proved insurmountable for Team Falcons.
Esports Charts reported a staggering peak viewership of 1,037,291 for the Grand Final, setting a new record for a non-Major BLAST event and placing it second overall among all BLAST events. Only the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023, which Vitality also won, boasts higher numbers.
