All CS2 Major winners

The BLAST.tv Austin 2025 Major concluded yesterday marking the third Counter-Strike 2 Major. Vitality put up a convincing playoffs showing, taking down The MongolZ in the grand-final to lift their second Major trophy. After NAVI, Vitality became the second team to clinch Counter-Strike Major trophies across two different titles.

Lets take a quick look at all the Counter-Strike 2 Major winners so far starting with the most recent one.

Vitality

BLAST.tv Austin 2025 Major

Signing off from Counter-Strike: Global Offensive after winning the game's last Major on home turf at BLAST.tv Paris 2023, Vitality took their time transitioning into the game's Source 2 remake. Arguably the most important roster move for Vitality came in early 2025 in the form of ropz's transfer from FaZe.

A star rifler in ropz and a stellar AWP in ZywOo combined with apEX's mastermind leadership turned out to be the perfect formula for success for Vitality. The French org won event after event in 2025, taking home six S-tier titles in a row before coming into the Major. Vitality were on a 30-match LAN win streak which ended at the Austin Major but the team comfortably made playoffs.

Taking down NAVI and MOUZ, Vitality booked their grand-final clash against The MongolZ. The MongolZ put up a dominant opening map performance on Mirage, momentarily raising doubts for Vitality, but Vitality recovered and reverse swept the bo3, to win the BLAST.tv Austin 2025 Major. Vitality's Austin Major win makes apEX the most decorated player in Counter-Strike's history with 33 notable trophies to his name.

Spirit

Perfect World Shanghai 2024 Major

donk announced his entry loud and clear at IEM Katowice 2024, dropping record breaking performance, to fetch Spirit their first IEM Katowice title. However, Spirit were stopped in their tracks by FaZe at Counter-Strike 2's first Major, PGL Copenhagen 2024 in the quarter-final.

Spirit's 2024 looked shaky after the first Major and they barely made it out of the European RMR for the Shanghai Major. Spirit cleaned up their act at Perfect World Shanghai 2024 with a 3-1 run in the elimination stage. Taking down Liquid and MOUZ, they came face to face with FaZe, the same team that removed them from contention in the previous Major.

A thrilling 3-map series turned out to be a nail-bitter as Spirit edged out FaZe in the decider with donk going ballistic with a 1.98 HLTV rating as FaZe suffered back to back Major grand-final losses. Spirit are coming into the BLAST.tv Austin 2025 Major as the defending champions.

NAVI

PGL Copenhagen 2024

After winning PGL Stockholm 2021, marking s1mple's first ever Major win, NAVI could not go the distance at Majors in 2022 and 2023. PGL Copenhagen 2024 was Counter-Strike 2's first Major and FaZe came in as massive favorites to take the trophy home. ropz had taken his game to the next level upon Counter-Strike 2's release, rain looked in stellar form and karrigan was calling brilliant games; all in all the Major trophy had FaZe's name written all over it.

NAVI on the other hand came into the Major without s1mple, one of the biggest names in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. The aleksib-led roster came under scrutiny often for falling short at concluding stages of big events. The roster however silenced all doubts, bagging Counter-Strike 2's first Major trophy.

After getting stomped by FaZe on the second map of the grand-final, NAVI put up a dominant 13-2 win on Inferno with b1t holding an astounding 2.21 rating in the deciding map. NAVI's last notable event win came at ESL Pro League Season 20 in September 2024.
