Lotan “Spinx” Giladi has been named the MVP of BLAST Bounty Season 2 Finals after leading MOUZ to the tournament title. Despite teammate Ádám “torzsi” Torzsás finishing as the event’s highest-rated player, Spinx’s dominant performance in the grand final earned him the first HLTV MVP medal of his career.
First MVP after years among the elite
Spinx has long been regarded as one of Counter-Strike’s most consistent riflers. A four-time HLTV Top 20 player and 17-time EVP, the Israeli had never previously won an HLTV MVP award. That changed at BLAST Bounty Season 2.
Across the LAN event, Spinx averaged a 1.20 rating, but his biggest impact came when it mattered most. In the grand final against Spirit he produced 78 kills across four maps, claimed three Player of the Map awards, and finished the series with a 1.54 rating, helping MOUZ secure the championship.
Although torzsi finished the tournament with a slightly higher overall rating (1.22), HLTV rewarded Spinx for delivering the decisive performances in the playoffs and championship match.
Grand final performance sealed the award
Spinx was outstanding throughout the title series. His map-by-map ratings against Spirit:
- Nuke — 1.41 (20-11)
- Ancient — 1.16 (15-14)
- Mirage — 1.86 (20-5)
- Dust2 — 1.91 (23-8)
Those performances ultimately separated him from every other MVP candidate.

At BLAST Bounty Season 2, he finally removed that last achievement from his checklist. After helping MOUZ lift another trophy, the Israeli star now has his first HLTV MVP award — a fitting reward for one of the best playoff performances of his career.
