BLAST.tv Austin Major Champions

Team Vitality cap off a dominant start to 2025 with a Major Championship

Over four days, the Moody Center in Austin, Texas hosted Team Vitality's coronation as the best Counter-Strike team on the planet.

Facing The MongolZ in the Grand Finals, Team Vitality lost the opening map 13:5, then stormed back on the next two, winning 13:4 on Dust II and 13:6 on Inferno to win the BLAST.tv Austin Major and the organization's second Major Championship.

To celebrate, today we are releasing the Major Champions Capsule, featuring Paper, Foil, Holo, and Gold stickers autographed by one of the Champions from Team Vitality.

And for the first time, we are introducing Souvenir Charms. Each Playoff Stage Souvenir comes with a Souvenir Charm that contains a highlight from the match.

Finally, Season Two of Premier ends on July 14th. To receive your Premier Season Two Medal, you must have 25 Season Two Premier wins and a visible CSR when the Season concludes.

See you soon for Premier Season Three!
