BLAST Premier Spring Finals 2022: Recap

The BLAST Premier Spring Finals 2022 started with Group Stage matches on June 15. Eventual champs NAVI only finished tied for second in Group B, though that was where their final opponents Vitality finished in Group A as well.

Come playoff time though, s1mple and company were in full form, sweeping FaZe 2-0 in the Quarterfinals. The Semifinal match against OG would prove to be their biggest test of the playoffs, but NAVI were able to survive with a 2-1 win to reach the final.

On the other side of the table Vitality easily handled ENCE in the Quarterfinals, while barely making it out against G2 in a match that came down to the wire on Nuke.

At the Grand Finals it was all NAVI. Despite a massive shakeup to the roster, the Ukranian side was seemingly untouchable on the final day of BLAST Spring 2022. After taking Mirage with a score of 16-8, they outdid themselves on Overpass, dominating Vitality 16-5 to wrap things up.

It was a wild few weeks leading up to the tournament for NAVI, who parted ways with IGL Boombl4 due to personal issues. This doesn’t seemed to have slowed them down in the slightest though, with s1mple leading the way to yet another first-place finish.
