Over the past few years, Vitality has constantly competed at the highest level most recently winning IEM Cologne 2024 with some of the best CS2 players. However, at the past two tournaments, they have struggled to break into the top 5:

  • 5-8th @ BLAST Bounty Spring 2025
  • 5-8th @ Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024

Trialling a new signing of Robin “ropz” Kool, this Vitality roster has reached new heights.

So far in the competition, Vitality has remained flawless in taking down 3DMAX, FaZe Clan, Virtus.pro and The MongolZ. Indeed, there is an argument to be made that Vitality has faced weaker teams than the likes of Spirit.

Team Spirit – Winning Streak

In 2024, Team Spirit has been on a bit of a winning streak for CS2 predictions. Winning four international tournaments and 2nd twice, this Spirit team is absolutely deadly.

Most recently, they’ve won the last two tournaments they’ve attended:

  • 1st @ Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024
  • 1st @ BLAST Bounty Spring 2025

At IEM Katowice, Spirit started strong but then fell to Natus Vincere in an epic overtime map 3 on Nuke. After this loss, Spirit bounced back by taking down Liquid and GamerLegion.

In the Playoffs, Spirit beat down Virtus.pro and gladly reaped revenge on Natus Vincere. Now in the Grand Final, a winning record paints them as favourites. On top of it all, Spirit won last year’s iteration of IEM Katowice.
