Two teams. It's one rematch that the entire CS2 scene has been waiting for.
Falcons vs Vitality — the grand final of BLAST Rivals 2025 Season 1 isn’t just another championship bout. It’s a sequel to what many analysts called “the best CS2 final to date” — the legendary Grand Slam showdown where Vitality pulled off a miracle comeback on map 5, turning a 6-12 deficit into an OT victory after four overtimes, securing gold bars for every player.
That match became an instant el’ classico — a defining moment for the CS2 era.
Now, just months later, the Falcons are back — and they’re no longer the underdogs. With m0NESY’s explosive AWPing and NiKo in MVP form, Falcons have reached their third consecutive final, soaring past top teams without dropping a map.
Vitality remains the final boss — experienced, ruthless, and undefeated so far. But can they withstand this version of the Falcons? The one that looks hungrier, faster, and deadlier than ever?
This is the rematch. This is the rivalry.
Don’t miss Falcons vs Vitality.
