Vitality vs FaZe Match Preview
Vitality
Vitality’s run to the BLAST World Final Grand Final has been nothing short of spectacular. The Paris Major Champions are yet to drop a map at the tournament, having bested Cloud9 and NAVI on two occasions, with all three games ending with a 2-0 scoreline. The international squad has been on point, both in terms of their strategic depth and individual performance demonstrated by all five members of the roster at different points throughout the tournament.
Before Sunday’s Grand Final, four out of the five Vitality members are among the six best-performing players at the tournament. Despite having to manage their recent addition to the roster in William “mezii” Merriman, the team looks better than ever and is on course to finish the year with another title.
FaZe
The best team in CS2 reaches yet another Grand Final, as FaZe try to avenge themselves against Vitality and claim their third CS2 trophy. The international powerhouse has shown a lot of courage and their trademark resilience throughout their journey in Abu Dhabi, grinding out victories from losing positions and coming out on top in very close games. Those hard-fought wins are a testament to their rock-solid mentality and unbreakable team spirit.
There is a good chance that they claim the BLAST World Final title in their debut tournament with David “frozen” Cernansky. The Slovak’s recent move away from MOUZ already seems to be paying off, and a season-ending trophy lift would be just a cherry on top.
