Vitality vs NAVI Match Preview

Vitality

The Paris Major Champions have not slowed down since their recent BLAST Fall Final victory and continue to lay waste to their opponents. Vitality began their Abu Dhabi campaign with a decisive victory over their semi-final opponents in NAVI. Then, they overcame Cloud9 in a tricky bout and secured themselves a playoff berth. The Bees are living up to their favourites status and are on course to finish the year as the most accomplished team of 2023.

Interestingly, the best performing player in the tournament thus far has been William “mezii” Merriman, Vitality’s new addition to their roster. The Brit struggled in his debut event, but he seems to have settled in and is showing exactly why he was the perfect player to bring into the team.

NAVI

NAVI’s appearance this deep into the competition may surprise some people, especially considering their shaky start in Abu Dhabi. The international roster looked down and out, after suffering a tough loss against Vitality and being on the verge of elimination in their match against ENCE. Somehow they managed to recover and remain in the competition, before besting G2 in an exciting three-map series.

Although NAVI already lost to their semi-final opponents at the BLAST World Final, their positive results in other matches could elevate their mood and give them the confidence that they need to challenge Vitality and exact their revenge.
