\n <\/a>\n <\/figure>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n MOUZ advanced to the Grand final of BLAST Bounty 2026 Season 2 <\/a>\n <\/h3>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/article> <\/div>\n<\/div>\nHEAD-TO-HEAD \u2014 SPIRIT HAVE A NOTICEABLE ADVANTAGE<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe head-to-head history is completely on Spirit\u2019s side. Across all time, the teams have played 33 maps, with the Russian roster winning 18 of them, while MOUZ have won only 8. Seven more maps ended in overtime.<\/p>\n
In 2026, Spirit defeated MOUZ three times. At PGL Astana 2026, they won 2:0 after victories on Nuke (13:2) and Dust2 (13:3). A month later at IEM Rio 2026, Spirit again won 2:0, giving the opponent only 13 rounds across two maps \u2014 Mirage (13:8) and Dust2 (13:5). The last time the teams met was at IEM Krak\u00f3w 2026, where Spirit repeated the result, winning on Mirage (13:3) and Dust2 (13:8).<\/p>\n
Despite Spirit\u2019s dominance in head-to-head matches, MOUZ\u2019s current form looks much stronger than in previous series. That is why the Grand Final has every chance to become the most competitive match between these teams this year.<\/p>\n
CURRENT FORM<\/strong><\/h2>\nSpirit \u2014 the best team in the world
\nSpirit approach the final on a four-match winning streak. Before the Grand Final, the team defeated FaZe, Liquid, 100 Thieves, OG, and G2, losing only to Falcons.<\/p>\n
The undisputed leader remains donk, who has a 1.50 rating over the last three months. He shows 0.95 kills per round, 96.0 ADR, and has the best round swing (+4.83%) among all participants in the final. sh1ro, magixx, and tN1R also make a major contribution, while zont1x traditionally provides stability in key moments.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/55435445461_536910103a_k.jpg\")

\nMOUZ have also won their last four matches. On the way to the final, the team defeated Astralis, 3DMAX, FOKUS, and Nuclear TigeRES, although earlier they lost to FUT and Vitality.<\/p>\n
The best individual form is being shown by xertioN, who has a 1.21 rating over the last three months. He remains the team\u2019s main driving force, while torzsi consistently provides impact with the AWP, and Spinx and xelex regularly create advantages in rifle duels. PR\u2019s performance may also become an important factor, as he showed himself well in the playoffs.<\/p>\n
MAP POOL & VETO<\/strong><\/h2>\nStatistics over the last 3 months (Spirit | MOUZ):<\/p>\n
\n- Cache: \u2014 | \u2014<\/li>\n
- Dust2: 80% | 60%<\/li>\n
- Mirage: 89% | 70%<\/li>\n
- Inferno: \u2014 | 62%<\/li>\n
- Nuke: 100% | 69%<\/li>\n
- Ancient: 100% | 50%<\/li>\n
- Anubis: 83% | \u2014<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Expected veto:<\/p>\n
\n- MOUZ will almost certainly ban Ancient \u2014 a map where Spirit have a 100% win rate and regularly dominate opponents.<\/li>\n
- Spirit will most likely remove Inferno \u2014 the only map they practically do not use themselves, while MOUZ have a 62% win rate on it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Likely picks:<\/p>\n
\n- Spirit: Mirage \u2014 one of the team\u2019s best maps with an 89% win rate. It is on Mirage that Spirit have already beaten MOUZ several times in 2026.<\/li>\n
- MOUZ: Nuke \u2014 despite Spirit\u2019s statistical advantage, this is one of MOUZ\u2019s strongest maps with a 69% win rate, where the team has the best chance to put up a fight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Possible maps in the series: Dust2 is almost guaranteed to appear in the Bo5, as both teams actively use it. There is also a high chance of seeing Anubis near the end of the series if Spirit decide to leave it in the pool as a potential fifth map.<\/p>\n
KEY DUELS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- donk vs xertioN \u2014 the main individual duel of the final between the two most productive players on both teams.<\/li>\n
- sh1ro vs torzsi \u2014 a duel between two snipers that may determine control of key rounds.<\/li>\n
- magixx vs Spinx \u2014 a battle between rifle players for control of the central areas of the map and trade conversion.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
