BLAST Premier Spring 2020: Final Placements and Results BLASTThe first Spring Series of the 2020 BLAST Premier is done and dusted, with six teams already locked into the Spring finals later this year. Here are the final results, as well as placement, and prize pool\/Premier points distributions. The landscape of CS:GO has changed dramatically heading into the new decade. With the upcoming debut of the B Site League, the premiere of the newly formatted ESL Pro League, and with BLAST moving from hosting weekend tournaments to full-blown league, it\u2019s an exciting time for players and fans alike. In September 2019, BLAST Premier was announced for 2020. The new structure two regular seasons in the Spring and the Fall, as well as Showdown events, finals for each season, and another Global Final. Across all of their 2020 events, the organizer intends to distribute $4.25 million in prize pool winnings. The BLAST Premier Spring 2020 season began on January 31 and concluded on Februry 16. Jump to section: Recap In Group A, FaZe Clan look like they\u2019ve reached the final form they had in mind when Marcelo \u2018coldzera\u2019 David arrived. They didn\u2019t drop a single map during the three-day event, and closed out both of their dominant 2-0 wins over Liquid with one-sided maps, (16-5 on Inferno, and 16-2 on Dust II). The new NiP roster looks potentially promising with a comeback win against MIBR, and a close series loss against Liquid. Although Natus Vincere would top Group B, the story of the \u2018group of death\u2019 was the juggernaut performance of Complexity. The NA-European hybrid roster put together by Jason Lake stunned fans and teams, winning 2-0 against Astralis and Team Vitality to secure a Spring Finals spot. The lackluster play by Astralis, who went into the event considered number one in the world, was also stunning. During a weekend which saw G2\u2019s LoL team struggle in the LEC, the organization\u2019s CS:GO came alive, beating 100 Thieves and OG 2-0 to secure their finals spot. But OG would withstand the loss and deliver two victories in separate back-and-forth series against Evil Geniuses, before G2 finished off their weekend with a third victory to top the group.
