In Group A of the BLAST Premier Fall Finals 2025, you must watch out for FaZe. They’ve started the new game with a bang, their renewed motivation clearer than ever. FaZe have been particularly helped by ropz taking to CS2 like a duck to water. With an IEM Sydney 2025 and Thunderpick World Championship 2025 title under their belt already, more glory could be around the corner.

Group A

• FaZe
• Cloud9
• NAVI
• Ninjas in Pyjamas

Next, there’s NAVI. With s1mple out for the foreseeable future, they’ve brought in young talent w0nderful to fill his shoes for now. Whether they’re successful or not, they’re by far one of the most interesting prospects coming into this tournament. They could crash out at the first hurdle, or take the entire thing.

Group B

The first team to watch out for in Group B of the BLAST Premier Fall Final 2025 is Complexity. They’ve looked like a team reborn in recent months, even making a Grand-Final run at IEM Sydney 2025. Rather than let that momentum dissipate, they’ll want to capitalize on it and mark themselves as frontrunners as we move into competitive CS2.

Group B

• Team Vitality
• Complexity
• Astralis
• Heroic

Next in Group B, you’ve obviously got Heroic. After the last few weeks of Heroic CS2 roster drama, which first saw cadiaN and later jabbi and stavn benched, it’s hard to keep up with what’s really happening over there. The current situation is this: cadiaN is back for one last dance before he seemingly heads to Liquid, Zyphon has been loaned from Sprout, and dupreeh, sjuush, and TeSeS are there as normal. Will it be a triumphant farewell for cadiaN in Copenhagen? There’s only one way to find out.
