NAVI Roars to Victory: Crushing BIG and Setting the Stage for an Epic Rematch against Heroic in BLAST Fall Final!

Natus Vincere secures a spot in the BLAST Fall Final after a convincing 2-0 victory against BIG in the Knockout Stage. The team displayed their prowess on Ancient with a 16-11 scoreline and continued their dominance on Mirage, narrowly clinching a 16-14 win. This triumph sets up a highly anticipated rematch against Heroic.

NAVI had suffered a 2-0 defeat against Heroic in the group's upper final, but they seem determined to bounce back in the upcoming face-off. The Danish powerhouse, however, remains a formidable force, with their well-coordinated gameplay and experience giving them an edge over NAVI's evolving lineup.

A standout performance from Mihai "iM" Ivan on Ancient and Aleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev's heroics on Mirage fueled NAVI's victory. Despite a slight dip in form during Mirage, they managed to secure the win, and iM expressed his satisfaction with the team's progress.

BIG's choice of Ancient backfired as they struggled to break through NAVI's defenses. iM, Valeriy "b1t" Vakhovskiy and s1mple formed an impenetrable defense, leading to an 11-4 advantage for NAVI at halftime. Although BIG attempted a comeback in the second half, NAVI's resilience and strategic calls sealed their fate with a 16-11 victory.

Moving on to Mirage, NAVI showcased exceptional calling and fragging skills, securing an 11-4 lead on the T side. Despite BIG's attempts to rally, s1mple's individual brilliance and Aleksib's triple kill played pivotal roles in maintaining NAVI's control. Although BIG made a valiant effort to narrow the gap, s1mple's late-round heroics secured NAVI's victory at 16-14, ending the series on a high note.

The upcoming rematch with Heroic promises to be an intense battle as NAVI aims to prove their mettle and secure a spot in the Fall Final. With both teams hungry for victory, fans can expect an exciting clash of talents and strategies.
