Vitality is proving once again that they are the top team in the scene. They kicked off 2025 with a bang, winning three big events back to back. The team is looking united and self assured, no matter who they face. Each player is consistently performing well, and coach zonic’s playbook is working like a tea. Their average rating from the last few events is 6.2.
Since the turn of the year, the French organization has faced The MongolZ several times, winning every fixture. They were especially dominant on Inferno (13-2) and Anubis (13-4). For their upcoming matches, Vitality’s best map choices are Nuke (92% win rate), Dust 2 (85%), and Inferno (82%), mainly due to their aggression and strong coordination. Even though The MongolZ has a fighting spirit and performs well when pushed against the wall, Vitality (odds to win at 1.38) stands out as the clear favorite. Their current form, use of tactical equipment, and experience give them a huge edge in Melbourne.

The MongolZ have had a rollercoaster performance. They really struggled in the last tournament, but at IEM Melbourne, they managed to bounce back. Their win against FaZe in the crucial match for the playoffs was really impressive. However, they still face a big problem with inconsistency. Their team rating stands at a below average 5.9, even after a strong showing against Team Liquid. Nevertheless, The Mongolz are known for boosting their confidence when playing against top 5 squads. Thus their chances are never 0, we expect to see a confident start from them but things falling apart soon after.
Inferno is likely to be their map choice since it’s statistically their best, boasting a 73% win rate over 2025. Even if The MongolZ (odds to win at 3.8) manage to dominate their map pick, keeping up with Team Vitality in a long series will be one if not the hardest task they will face this year. The French organization has beaten them multiple times and knows how to counter their game plan.
