SAW and Spirit book Spring Finals tickets
Eight teams are now ready for the Spring Final event in London.
BLAST Spring Finals in June will have the current top three teams attending after Team Spirit booked their place at the event by winning the BLAST Spring Showdown alongside the Portuguese roster from SAW.
Spirit defeated the Swedish roster from Metizport 2-1 after the young Swedes had won their map pick of Vertigo. Danil "donk" Kryshkovets ended the match at the top of the scoreboard, while Dmitriy "sh1ro" Sokolov and Myroslav 'zont1x' Plakhotia also chipped in.
In the other qualification match, SAW defeated an OG team without their star rifler Nikita "HeavyGod" Martynenko, who was ruled out of the match due to health reasons.
