Vitality arrive at BLAST Rotterdam not only as a favorite, but also with a chance to rewrite another chapter in Counter-Strike history. The current roster has already built a streak of 15 consecutive map wins at big events, and now the battle is not just for the trophy, but also for a place among the greatest win streaks in the scene.
Vitality’s streak has already placed the team in the historical rankings
According to the latest infographic from CS2 News, the current Vitality lineup has 15 consecutive map wins at major tournaments. This already places the team alongside notable streaks from previous years and keeps them in direct contention for second place in the all-time rankings.
The key intrigue is that this run no longer looks like a random spike in form. Vitality are consistently beating opponents and at the start of BLAST Open Rotterdam 2026 have already defeated 9z and The MongolZ with 2:0 scores, securing their progression further in the bracket. The tournament runs until March 29, with playoffs taking place in Rotterdam from March 27 to 29.

The record context makes every next match special
Vitality’s win streak matters not only as an impressive statistic. In Counter-Strike, such runs are always seen as a marker of dominance, as they demonstrate not just a single strong match, but a team’s ability to maintain a high level against different opponents and under different tournament conditions.
That is why this current run carries additional weight. By the logic of this ranking, the team already stands alongside several well-known historical streaks, and the upcoming matches at BLAST Rotterdam could push them even higher. This is what gives the story its strength: every new map for Vitality now carries two stakes — tournament progression and historical significance.
BLAST Rotterdam could become the stage for another major milestone
Based on the current trajectory, Vitality have real room to extend their streak at this very event. The tournament is entering its decisive phase, and the team is progressing without dropping maps in the opening matches. That is why discussions about a record do not look like exaggeration, but a realistic scenario.
The key points right now are:
- Vitality already have 15 consecutive map wins at big events;
- the team is advancing through the BLAST Open Rotterdam 2026 bracket without losing maps at the start;
- each upcoming match can impact not only their path to the title, but also their place in the historical win streak rankings.
Against this backdrop, BLAST Rotterdam becomes a tournament where success for Vitality is measured not only by reaching the final or competing for the trophy. Sometimes great teams begin to create a narrative within the championship itself — and that is exactly what is happening with the French organization right now.

For Vitality, this is a test not only of form, but of era-defining status
A streak of 15 consecutive maps has already made Vitality one of the key statistical stories of the current season. But the true weight of this achievement will be defined by whether the team can push it to a new historical milestone at BLAST Rotterdam.
If Vitality continue winning, the conversation will shift from a strong run to yet another argument for their dominance in modern CS2. And in that case, this tournament will be remembered not just as another playoff appearance for a favorite, but as the moment when the team came within reach of a new record.
