The first semifinals match of BLAST Open Spring 2025 is now set with Eternal Fire taking on MOUZ; here’s how you should approach betting on it.
The Counter-Strike 2 esports scene grinds on and often feels repetitive. The same teams seem to play against more of the same teams again and again, endlessly. But somehow, some way, two of the top squads have managed to avoid each other for a long while.
Two contending teams are set to throw down for the first time in a while. Here’s everything bettors need to know about this BLAST Open Spring matchup.
QUARTER-FINAL! MOUZ vs G2 – Official Highlights – BLAST Premier Open Lisbon 2025
Eternal Fire vs MOUZ will take place on March 29, 2025. It is one of two semifinal matches set for the BLAST Open Spring 2025 playoffs. The winner earns a spot in the finals while the loser receives one of two $40,000 third-place prizes.
Eternal Fire earned its way into a Blast Open Spring 2025 semifinals spot by going undefeated in group A. This stemmed from the team defeating Team Liquid, G2 Esports, and NaVi consecutively.
The team’s all-Turkish roster will continue competing in the event:
Eternal Fire has been strong on Anubis, Nuke, and Mirage over the last several months. The team isn’t bad on any particular map either, as its floor is still around the 50% winrate mark.
MOUZ cleared the BLAST Open Spring 2025 group stage by defeating Team Falcons and Team Spirit, but didn’t get the first-round bye in the playoffs after taking a loss from Vitality. It still landed in the quarterfinals and advanced with a 2-0 victory over G2 Esports.
The MOUZ roster remains unchanged since January, when the team added Spinx:
Nuke and Ancient are MOUZ’s best maps, with Nuke in particular being a fearsome map. MOUZ actually closed out its series against G2 with a lopsided beatdown on Nuke. On the flipside, it’s been generally shaky on Dust 2, Mirage, and Inferno and bans Anubis.
