Team Vitality wrapped up their Intel Extreme Masters 2025 [1] run in the best way possible, edging out Team Falcons 3-2 in a thrilling Grand Final to take home the $125,000 prize. It was not just about raw firepower either, their win showed off a level of teamwork and tactical chemistry that few teams in the scene can match right now.
On maps like Overpass and Ancient, Vitality’s aggressive defaults, guided by their experienced captain Dan apEX Madesclaire, kept Falcons constantly on the back foot. Things got especially intense on Vertigo, where a tense overtime battle swung Vitality’s way, showing how calm and composed they can stay when the pressure is on. The final map scores (13-9, 10-13, 16-14, 13-8) show how well they closed out those nail-biting moments.
Here’s how the Counter-Strike 2 Team Vitality, led by ZywOo, dominated in the IEM 2025 grand finale.
Team Vitality defeats Team Falcons at the IEM 2025 finals
Vitality’s win was not just about one or two players popping off, it was all about balance. Everyone on the team had their moment to shine, making it nearly impossible for the Falcons to find a real opening. Just like we saw back in ESL Pro League Season 21, the Grand Final stats said it all:
With no weak link to exploit, the Falcons were outmatched by a roster firing on all cylinders.

ZywOo delivers on the big stage once again
After a slight rough patch in 2024, Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut has come roaring back in 2025, and IEM Dallas was just another reminder of why he’s so special. His clutch 1v3 on Ancient crushed any momentum the Falcons were building, and his 30-bomb on Overpass shows just how unbelievably versatile he is. ZywOo picked up his fourth MVP award of 2025, adding another milestone to his legacy as CS2’s greatest AWPer.
With airtight tactics, standout plays, and nerves of steel, Team Vitality’s IEM 2025 win doesn’t feel like a peak; it feels like a warning. In a CS2 scene that’s always shifting, Vitality isn’t just keeping pace; they’re the ones raising the bar.
However, one of the things a lot of players have been worried about is the fact that it seems like ZywOo is carrying Team Vitality by itself. With the team seemingly relying on only one player to take them to the end of every tournament, what happens when a team with more individually talented players invite ZywOo, and he realizes he won't have to do everything by himself?
