Counter-Points is a Counter-Strike talk show, hosted by Duncan "Thorin" Shields and Jacob "Pimp" Winneche.
In this episode of Counter-Points, Thorin and Pimp break down one of the most surprising results in recent CS2 esports history — G2’s stunning victory over Vitality at the BLAST Premier Fall Final. We dive deep into how G2, led by coach sAw and IGL huNter-, built a winning formula without a traditional superstar, relying instead on a perfectly balanced roster featuring HeavyGod, matys, and malbsMD. From tactical innovations to key role adjustments, we analyze how G2 overcame pre-final predictions, mastered their T-sides, and shut down Vitality in a five-map thriller
We also explore the bigger Counter-Strike landscape — what G2’s rise means for the CS circuit, Vitality’s quest to regain their dominance, and how teams like Spirit, FaZe, Falcons, and TheMongolZ could shape the path to the next Major. Packed with expert insights, behind-the-scenes stories, and detailed breakdowns of team building, leadership shifts, and individual performances, this episode is essential for any Counter-Strike fan looking to understand the evolving CS2 esports meta.
