The BLAST Premier Spring Finals is the annual mid-seasonal event in BLAST's CS:GO calendar. The tournament will feature eight world-class teams selected on the basis of their performances in the BLAST Premier Circuit throughout the first half of the season.

The eight participating rosters will battle it out in a LAN arena for the winner's cheque from a $425,000 prize pool, and a direct entry into the BLAST Premier World Finals. The Spring Finals is scheduled to be held from June 6 to 11, 2023, at the Entertainment & Sports Arena in Washington, D.C., Columbia.

All 8 CS:GO teams that qualified for the 2023 BLAST Premier Spring Finals

Teams from Group Stage

The BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023 kicked off on January 19 with three separate double-elimination groups, each consisting of four teams. The winners of each group earned a direct qualification to the Spring Finals, while the remaining nine CS:GO teams were sent to compete for the three remaining Spring Finals' slots through the Knockout Stage.

After a week of breath-taking matchups, these three remarkable contestants have qualified from the Group Stage and secured a spot in the BLAST Premier Spring Finals 2023:

• Team Vitality (Group A)
• FaZe Clan (Group B)
• G2 Esports (Group C)

Vitality was the first team to emerge as a group winner in the 2023 Spring Groups. With three consecutive victories in the Group Stage, they had a rather comfortable path to qualification. They defeated teams like Astralis, Evil Geniuses, and Heroic to earn their spot in the Spring Finals.

FaZe Clan, despite being forced to play with a last-minute substitute, managed to follow Vitality into the Spring Finals after emerging as the best CS:GO team in Group B. They defeated Complexity Gaming in their opening matchup and then overthrew OG in back-to-back series to earn a well-deserved spot in the next stage of the BLAST Premier Circuit.

G2 Esports became the third team to make their way to the 2023 Spring Finals after a series of spectacular performances in the Group Stage. G2 ended their 2022 season in remarkable fashion as they emerged as champions of BLAST Premier: World Final.

G2 carried over their form to the 2023 CS:GO season, defeating BIG in their opening matchup of the Spring Groups and then NAVI twice in a row to earn a spot in the Spring Finals.
