BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2024VP shut down BIG to make BLAST Spring Final
BIG were unable to secure revenge for their earlier loss in the group.
Virtus.pro have snagged a place in the BLAST Premier Spring Final after securing a 2-0 victory over BIG, repeating their earlier win over the German side from their debut match in the Spring Groups.
The series kicked off on Virtus.pro's pick of Overpass, where the Russian side found themselves in an early deficit after BIG propelled themselves to a 7-2 scoreline on the defensive side. Unfazed, Virtus.pro rallied the half's three remaining rounds to claim a 5-7 scoreline heading into their CT side. A pistol round win and a 1v3 clutch from David "n0rb3r7" Danielyan kept the momentum going for Virtus.pro to start the second half, allowing them to quickly tie things up with BIG.
After reclaiming the lead with a streak of three rounds on the offense, BIG began to stall once Virtus.pro's economy started to recover. After allowing Virtus.pro to tie things up once again, the death knell for BIG was sounded after two consecutive last-second A site pushes were soundly shut down by the defenders, allowing VP to lock down their map pick despite the German side's best efforts.
Virtus.pro kept things rolling on their opponent's pick of Anubis, marching to a 6-1 lead on the T side. BIG cobbled together two rounds to keep the Russians honest, but Virtus.pro still came out of the half on top with a 9-3 record.
A pistol round win to kick off the second half allowed BIG to string together three rounds in a row, but Virtus.pro shrugged off this development with three rounds of their own to secure a 2-0 victory.
Although denied their first opportunity to compete in London, BIG will have another shot to qualify through the Spring Groups with their upcoming matchup against Astralis.
