BLAST Premier Spring Final 2023

The FaZe vs Astralis series will be the final one out of four opening matches in Spring Final 2023

During the Spring Groups event, these two teams looked a lot different from one another as FaZe finished the tournament with a clean 3-0 run while Astralis barely made it by winning in the Play-In Stage. Moreover, comparing both of their recent journeys, it’s evident that Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken and his teammates are highly favored to win this first-ever encounter.

If you’re excited to watch this Best of 3 and also have an interest in CSGO betting, check out this preview of the teams, including our predictions.

FaZe

Following a highly successful 2022, FaZe are finding it hard to live up to the expectations this year after wielding the ESL Pro League S17 trophy. Yes, they have been doing great in the last few tournaments, as we have seen this international squad reach the Playoffs in the Major and the recent IEM Dallas. However, for a #3 ranked roster, FaZe are yet to reach their full potential.

Astralis

Astralis are currently far from their 2019 greatness, as this year has shown barely any sign of excellence from this Danish team, especially in S-tier events like these. They missed the chance to compete in the Paris Major due to a disappointing 1-3 run in the RMRs – however, things have been looking better for dev1ce and his teammates considering their recent journey in the IEM Dallas 2023, where they reached the Playoffs by defeating teams like Liquid and Cloud9.
