Vitality on track to break another big record

In what has been a stunning year for Vitality so far, the team signed off with an almost flawless first half of the year, winning out seven S-tier events in a row including the recently concluded BLAST.tv Austin 2025 Major. Vitality broke the record for the most consecutive S-tier LAN match wins, ZywOo holds the most tournament MVPs, apEX holds the most notable trophies as Vitality embark on another record.

Vitality surpassed Liquid and FaZe on the list of the most prize money won in a calendar year by a Counter-Strike team and are now currently sitting at #3 behind the legendary Astralis 2018 run. At $2,528,750 USD Vitality are just a little over a million shy of overtaking Astralis, taking #2 spot in the list. At the top are NAVI with a staggering $4,275,500 USD won in 2021, including a Major win at PGL Stockholm 2021.

Vitality have a handful of events in 2025 left to overtake Astralis and climb to #2 but it is highly unlikely that they will touch NAVI's record at #1.
