Vitality move past MIBR at BLAST Spring Groups
The Brazilian’s impressive campaign has come to an end after falling short to ZywOo and company.
The brand-new Vitality roster is through to the next round at BLAST Premier Spring Groups following a confident 2-0 win against MIBR in the knock-out stage.
Today’s match was Magisk, dupreeh, and zonic’s first Bo3 battle with Vitality after their blockbuster transfer back in January. The French-Danish mix started out the series on MIBR’s map pick on Dust2, where the power balance quickly stood clear as Vitality went up 7-1 on the CT side.
A lead they continued throughout the entire showing on Dust2 and eventually also turned into a 1-0 map lead through a 16-10 win.
The Vitality side kept the upper hand going into Inferno and Dan “apEX” Madesclaire and his troops had no intention of delaying the Brazilian butchery, as they managed to dictate round after round against an otherwise hard-working MIBR squad. The Brazilians had trouble with dealing with both Mathieu 'ZywOo' Herbaut and Kévin 'misutaaa' Rabier. The latter popped off for the first time in 2022 with an impressive 24-13 K-D score on Inferno. The match ended with a 16-5 win for Vitality, who is now set up with a much-anticipated matchup against G2.
MIBR will now need to qualify for the Spring Finals via the last chance stage on Sunday.
