Natus Vincere and Gambit were meeting for the 13th time this year and in the final battle, Natus Vincere once again overcame the regional rivals to take the Blast Premier World Final Title. This would be their eighth title this year as Aleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev and co. were the undisputed best team in the world. After the shaky start to the tournament, Natus Vincere was playing in the lower bracket after the loss to Liquid and then fought back harder against Heroic, G2, Liquid, and Vitality to stay alive in the tournament and go all the way to the grand final.
Gambit who put on a more dominating performance ultimately lost to NAVI in the final match that mattered the most. At Mirage, Gambit grabbed an early win and seemed to be heading towards 2-0 at Ancient but NAVI turned the tides in their favor to push the map to Inferno, where they were the better side and got their hands on the title once more.
