It’s only been a handful of days since the BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2021 event kicked off, and we’re already in the final stages of Group A. What’s surprising is that BIG was the one to come out on top and win Group A. Here’s how they did it:
Match briefing
In the first round of the group stag BIG took on OG. BIG managed to win both maps (16-12 Inferno, 16-13 Dust 2) and progress further into the bracket. Then they were against NiP, after they beat Astralis in their 1st round. The matches were very close, and eventually NiP were stronger in that series. This meant that BIG dropped down into the lower bracket versus Astralis. BIG had the upper hand here, and came out victorious versus Astralis, to advance to the Finals.
In the Finals BIG were to rematch the swedish NiP squad. First map was Vertigo, and it was completely one-sided for the German squad, as they won 16-2. After that, Overpass was next, and it was way closer than the first, but BIG played better and won 16-14. With this win, they have solidified 1st place, and with it $25,000, along with a spot at Spring Finals.
