Headshot machine b1t and MVP for ZywOo - who made it into the "dream team" of BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2023?

BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2023 concluded yesterday, meaning it's high time to remember the best players in various roles. Several teams might have altered their roster to some extent, but in today's selection, we'll see many familiar faces.

Sniper - device

Nicolai "device" Reedtz doesn't just hold the highest rating in Astralis for no reason. Some skeptics might write him off simply because the era of his current club is long past, but at the age of 27, he still remains one of the strongest snipers on the pro scene. During the past BLAST, he made frags with AWP more often and more than anyone else. As for the rating, Nicolai ranked 6th with a score of 6.6.

Entry - blameF

Every time a capable shooter becomes a captain, there's a risk that their firepower will noticeably decrease, leading to a dip in stats. The performance of Benjamin "blameF" Bremer doesn't confirm this pattern. The Astralis player was the best in terms of entry frags, reaching a figure of 0.150.

Rifler - b1t

One tournament after the substitution was enough for Valeriy "b1t" Vakhovsky to start shooting again, as if it was 2021, when he was a headshot machine. This time in 65.7% of cases, he killed exactly in the head, making 0.43 headshots per round. It is rumored that Valeriy's comeback is related to the captaincy style of Aleksi "Aleksib" Virolainen, who is fond of micromanagement.

Support - cadiaN

Some things change, and some stay the same, like Casper "cadiaN" Møller in our dream team in the support role. As always, the Dane manages to combine the role of captain, sniper, and master of grenades. His efforts became a significant factor in the race for a ticket to the Fall Finals.

MVP - ZywOo

Despite the fact that Vitality went on a summer break as early as the end of May after winning the home major, their main star Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut did not lose his form. Even despite the lost match against NIP, the Frenchman led the top players by rating with a score of 7.1.

BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2023 took place from July 13 to 23. The teams competed for a prize fund of $177.5k and six slots for BLAST Premier: Fall Final 2023. The statistics and results of the tournament are available on the event page.
