BLAST Open London 2025 ended with G2 finally lifting a trophy after a long drought, but the event told a bigger story than just one team’s redemption. Spirit, despite donk being on fire, collapsed short of playoffs; NAVI’s new look with makaz failed to click; and Liquid once again looked stuck in neutral. On the other side of the bracket, M80 shocked everyone with a fearless run, FaZe showed signs of revival with their refreshed core, while Vitality and MOUZ proved the battle for top-tier dominance is still raging.
Now the spotlight shifts to the season’s endgame. G2 proved they can outlast Vitality in a grueling best-of-five, but that only means every team will study them harder. Vitality are slowly regaining their edge, FURIA and FaZe look ready to bite into the elite conversation, and Spirit and NAVI must solve issues before they slide further.
In the end, BLAST London left more questions than answers. Who can carry form into EPL, into the Major, into the winter? One thing’s certain—the race to close out 2025 feels wide open, and every mistake will cost double.
