π Highlights & Observations
-
Match Point Format & Climax
WSOW 2025 used a “Match Point” style format, where once a team reaches a threshold (125 points), winning a subsequent match seals their championship. Team Vision secured the win condition before all matches concluded. -
Strong Performance by Gentle Mates
They put up a serious challenge, finishing with solid consistency. Their second place is a testament to their synergy across maps. -
Top-tier Contenders
While Team Vision dominated, teams like BDS, Leviatán, and others provided stiff competition. The depth of talent across the field was impressive. -
Prize & Stakes
The substantial $1 M prize pool (with $300 k for 1st place) underscores how high the stakes were for all participating teams. -
Roster Diversity & International Representation
The event was not limited to one region. Teams from EMEA, North America, Latin America, APAC all competed in the Finals.
E.g., Team Vision’s roster (UK / Europe) vs Gentle Mates (largely Europe) vs BDS (a more mixed lineup) show how global the competition is.
π¬ Final Thoughts
Yesterday’s WSOW Global Finals delivered on excitement, drama, and high-level play. Team Vision’s dominance was clear, but the fight wasn’t one-sided — Gentle Mates and BDS pushed hard, making the journey to first place feel earned.
π Map-by-Map & Team Performance
From Sportskeeda’s results article, we have this breakdown of how the top teams fared across six matches:
Team | Total Score | Total Kills | Map 1 (Place / Kills) | Map 2 | Map 3 | Map 4 | Map 5 | Map 6 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Team Vision | 153 | 89 | 29th / 8 kills | 2nd / 16 | 4th / 13 | 33rd / 8 | 3rd / 14 | 1st / 11 |
Gentle Mates | 130.4 | 83 | 27 / 9 | 20 / 11 | 8 / 22 | 4 / 10 | 2 / 12 | 27 / 3 |
Team BDS | 122 | 74 | 7 / 7 | 12 / 7 | 2 / 9 | 26 / 9 | 8 / 11 | 5 / 10 |
Team Stukex | 112 | 73 | 41 / 6 | 4 / 12 | 28 / 8 | 46 / 3 | 1 / 21 | 24 / 2 |
Key Observations
-
Team Vision’s consistency & clutch
Although they had a weak first map (29th place, 8 kills), they rebounded strongly: 2nd in map 2, solid middle placements, and clinched the final map to hit the match-point win. -
Gentle Mates strong middle game, weaker finishes
They had respectable placements in maps 3 through 5, but their final map was weak (27th) which prevented them from overtaking Vision. -
BDS’s early strength
BDS had a strong Map 1 (7th), and even a top-2 finish on map 3, but couldn’t maintain that momentum in later maps. -
Variance in placements / kills
You see jumps like Stukex’s 46 kills on map 4 (but only 3rd place) which shows that kills alone weren't enough; placement multipliers matter heavily.
π€ Player & Team Stats Insights
While full individual stat lines (KD, damage, etc.) weren’t publicly broken down in all sources, we can infer and highlight a few things:
-
Kill contribution matters, but placement multipliers decide
All kills count 1 point each, but your placement multiplier (first, top 5, top 10, etc.) amplifies value. As Liquipedia describes, the multiplier tiers are:1st = ×2.0, 2nd–5th = ×1.8, 6th–10th = ×1.6, 11th–20th = ×1.4, 21st–35th = ×1.2, 36th–50th = ×1.0
-
Top teams kept a balance of placements + kills
Team Vision may not have had the highest kills in every match, but their ability to stay in “placement-heavy zones” (top 5, top 10) allowed their score to stay high. -
Kill peaks don’t always align with wins
For example, Stukex had 46 kills on map 4 (best among those listed) but finished 46th by placement that map, severely limiting their score gain. -
Total kills among top teams
-
Vision: 89 kills
-
Gentle Mates: 83 kills
-
BDS: 74 kills
-
Stukex: 73 kills
-
This suggests that Vision’s edge was not necessarily in raw kills, but in consistently strong placements when it mattered.
