The last tier one CS2 events of the first half of 2024 are set to take place in June before competitive players and teams head over for a month-long summer break. The biggest and (deservedly) the most-anticipated tournament is BLAST Premier Spring Finals 2024.
Eight teams are gathering in London to fight for a lion’s share of the $425,000 prize pool. But the money isn’t the only reward, since the winners will be directly invited to an event that concludes the Counter-Strike competitive year: BLAST Premier World Final 2024. Two squads have already secured their place—Spirit and Natus Vincere. The former did so by winning IEM Katowice 2024, while the latter was invited after hoisting the Major trophy in March.
Here’s everything you need to know about BLAST Premier Spring Finals 2024: Match schedule, results, streams, and more.
BLAST Premier Spring Finals 2024 CS2 format and teams
BLAST Premier Spring Finals 2024 features a GSL-style double-elimination group stage. Like a few previous tier one events, this time around, there’s also a small twist. Instead of only two teams from each group making it to the playoffs, three participants will qualify instead.
The winner of the upper bracket final proceeded directly to the playoff semifinals, while the upper bracket runner-up and the lower bracket qualifier began the playoffs in the quarterfinals. All matches are concluded in best-of-five format, with the final on Sunday being a best-of-five spectacle.
The playoffs saw the remaining six battle through a single-elimination bracket.
The squads visiting the United Kingdom in June are as follows:
- FaZe Clan
- SAW
- NAVI
- Astralis
- Vitality
- Virtus Pro
- Spirit
- G2 Esports
