BLAST Premier Spring Final schedule released

The tournament format will feature two GSL groups into a six-team playoff, with the final two days played at the Altice Arena.

BLAST has announced the schedule for the upcoming Spring Final, which will play out in Lisbon, Portugal, on June 15-19, with $425,000 on the line for the eight teams competing.

Notably, the Spring Final will now be a two-group GSL with the top seed going straight to the semi-finals and the second and third seeds going to the quarter-finals, as opposed to the double-elimination bracket of previous iterations of the tournament.

The tournament will feature six teams that made it through the group stage in FaZe, Natus Vincere, OG, Vitality, BIG and G2, alongside two teams from the Showdown, paiN and ENCE.

The seeding that the teams themselves put together is:
