The BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 will be one of the tournaments in the history of CS:GO with the fewest French players. Only Dan "apEX" Madesclaire and Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut will be representing France at the home championship. Previously, these same esports athletes from Team Vitality represented their country at the IEM Rio Major 2022. In all other Majors, there were at least four participants from France, and on the first three tournaments, this figure was 12 people.

Esports athlete ZywOo became the most valuable player of RMR B, earning 38% of the votes from viewers on the BLAST website. His team finished the tournament with a score of 3:1 and received a place in the Major "Legends" stage.
