BLAST has announced that the Spring Final competition would be held in Lisbon, Portugal, from June 15 to June 19. The event will take place at the 15,000-seat Altice Arena, which held a BLAST Pro Series tournament at the close of 2018 and saw Astralis win at the pinnacle of their powers.
Six of the eight teams announced so far for the event are from the Spring Groups stage, which launched off tier-one competition in 2022. FaZe, Vitality, OG, and G2 all made their debuts with new lineups and won a spot in the Final with BIG and Natus Vincere.
The remaining two teams will be drawn from the Spring Showdowns in Europe and North America, which will take place between April 27 and May 1. FURIA and Liquid will be the two favorites to win the North American berth, while four current top ten teams will compete in Europe: Heroic, ENCE, NIP, and Astralis.
