With less than a month to go before the start of the first Major of the year, the <\/span>BLAST.tv Austin Major<\/b>, it\u2019s time to share my <\/span>power ranking<\/b> of the teams that will compete in the tournament \u2014 focusing on those most likely to fight for the ultimate victory! This June will have a special flavor: the eyes of the world will be on Austin to finally determine whether <\/span>Vitality truly deserves to be in the conversation for the greatest team in Counter-Strike history<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vitality: \u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With<\/span> five consecutive titles<\/b> in a spectacular start to the year, <\/span>Vitality<\/b> is without question the <\/span>heavy favorite <\/b>heading into the Major. Even if they fail to win a sixth straight tournament in Dallas next week \u2014 a temporary setback in an ultra-competitive scene \u2014 it shouldn\u2019t shake their overflowing confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Vitality\"<\/p>\n

The challenge, however, will be significant for apEX\u2019s squad. Being the best team in the world means being <\/span>analyzed<\/b>, <\/span>dissected,<\/b> and <\/span>counter-stratted<\/b>. Some teams have studied them so thoroughly they may know Vitality\u2019s game better than Vitality themselves. The team has embraced this status in recent weeks, but with time to prepare, the gap could narrow.<\/span><\/p>\n
