CS2 online betting sites have delivered the following outright odds for this competition. In this section, we reveal the CS2 BLAST Premier World Final 2024 odds for the top five favorites in this contest:
Currently ranked number 1 on the HLTV rankings, NaVi is the most in-form team in competitive CS2. The Ukrainian powerhouse has showcased remarkable consistency, advancing to seven grand finals this season and emerging victorious in four. Their triumph at PGL Major Copenhagen 2024 secured them a direct spot in this tournament. Their most recent win came this month as they defeated MOUZ 3:1 in the grand finals to clinch the IEM Rio title in Brazil. NaVi has consistently proven that it has what it takes to fight for top honors. Given their pedigree, it is unsurprising that they appear as outright favorites to secure this title. You can bet on 2024 CS2 BLAST Finals with this option at odds of 3.00 (2/1).
Vitality remains a formidable opponent despite having a relatively quiet season by their standards. However, it is not all doom and gloom for the French organization. They have one title win this season. Additionally, they have reached three grand finals and seven semifinals. Heading into this tournament, Vitality will seek to make amends for their performance at IEM Rio 2024. They failed to make it past the quarterfinals in that contest. Given the importance of this event, we expect Vitality to push extra hard to secure their second title win for the season.
For several compelling reasons, G2 Esports stands out as a top contender for this tournament. The European organization has secured two titles this year. Their first victory came at the IEM Dallas 2024, followed by a recent win at the BLAST Premier Fall Final 2024. During the latter event, Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov was honored with the MVP award, marking his second such reward of the year. In addition to these achievements, G2 finished second at the Esports World Cup and reached the semifinals in three other competitions. Clearly, they possess the championship pedigree needed to triumph in this tournament.
MOUZ is another top team to watch out for in Singapore. This year, they have two title wins to their name. Their first triumph saw them clinch the ESL Pro League Season 19 tournament. They also won the BetBoom Dacha Belgrade 2024 event. Interestingly, MOUZ has reached the semifinals in four of their six tournaments. Their most recent outing saw them finish second at the IEM Rio 2024 event. Having reached the first grand final at their last outing, they will be keen to press on for a tournament win.
The CIS side entered this contest by virtue of their triumph at the IEM Katowice 2024 tournament. Since that win, they have gone on to secure victories at BLAST Premier Spring Fall 2024 and BetBoom Dacha Belgrade Season 2. Spirit is a relatively young side with frightening potential. They have a 68.4% win rate over the last three months and will look to hit peak form during the latter stages of this tournament. If they can recreate some of their best performances from this year, they will be in a solid position to secure a title win.

While NAVI remains formidable, they have struggled in best-of-five grand finals. Their losses at the Spring and Fall Finals this year lend credibility to our argument. G2 Esports emerges as our prime pick for the championship, riding high after their BLAST Premier Fall Final 2024 victory. Their exceptional lineup has maintained an impressive 70% win rate over the past quarter. The dynamic duo of Nikola “NiKo” Kovač and Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov continues to deliver outstanding performances. Additionally, Guatemalan talent Mario “malbsMd” Samayoa has elevated his game significantly in recent tournaments. With such a well-rounded roster firing on all cylinders, G2 possesses everything needed to secure this title.

With seven grand final appearances this year, NaVi has emerged as the most reliable team for this betting option. The Ukrainian organization has performed exceptionally well and should have more titles to show for it. However, their struggles in the best-of-five grand finals have hindered their success. Still, we anticipate they will reach the grand finals of this tournament. Several CS2 predictions for the BLAST World Final support this bet option.

MOUZ heads into this matchup with an advantage, having performed better in recent tournaments than their opponents. In their last event at IEM Rio, they secured a 2:1 victory over FaZe. Since then, MOUZ has lost only one match—their grand final against NaVi at the same event. While it’s true that FaZe has a slightly better win rate (58.3%) over the past three months, they have struggled against top teams. Besides MOUZ, they have also lost to NaVi and G2 in recent competitions. Consequently, we anticipate that MOUZ will emerge victorious in this matchup. Even Valorant gambling sites are offering this bet option at odds of 2.50 (3/2).

Undoubtedly, Vitality has been more competitive than Spirit in recent competitions. The French organization boasts a 78.9% win rate over the past three months and has reached seven semifinals this season. While it’s true that Spirit defeated Vitality in their most recent encounter, Vitality also claimed victory against them earlier this year. Given their current form, we believe Vitality is poised to win this contest.
