On January 19th, 2025, G2 clinched a spot in the BLAST Bounty Season 1 Finals after a 2-1 victory over BIG.

BIG started the series in dominant fashion on Ancient, gaining a 7-0 lead before G2 managed to secure their first round. BIG maintained their control, extending their lead to an overwhelming 12-1. However, G2 refused to go down without a fight, forcing an impressive comeback by winning seven consecutive rounds. Despite their valiant effort, BIG’s early lead was too much to catch up with, and the German team closed out the map with a 13-8 victory.

 

On Mirage, BIG once again started strong with a 2-0 lead, but G2 quickly regained their footing and managed to finish the first half with a 7-5 advantage. Having found their rhythm in this series, G2 fought off BIG’s resistance in the second-half and closed the map with a 13-9 win.

 

The final map began with G2 taking a 2-0 lead. BIG retaliated, flipping the scoreboard in their favor, but G2 managed to fight back just enough to end the first half with a 7-5 lead. The second half saw G2 dominate thanks to Nikita "HeavyGod" Martynenko, whose performance made him this series’ MVP. Their strong defense and coordinated play sealed the map with a 13-6 victory, sending G2 to the Finals.

 

What did G2 and BIG say?

Guatemalan G2 player Mario "malbsMd" Samayoa expressed his excitement following G2’s victory, highlighting HeavyGod’s standout performance. He shared on X, “Beat BIG 2-1 and we are qualified for Denmark now! No more online CS for this month, Wp to them and thanks to everyone who cheered for us, but we indeed have a Heavy God.”
