NAVI has cleared the last hurdle in the way, Virtus.pro, to qualify for BLAST Spring Final 2024 Grand Final and will battle Spirit in a best-of-five series for the trophy.

The team looked quite confident and in great form since the beginning of the series as they almost clean sweeped VP on the first map. VP was able to keep things close on Mirage, the second map; however, it was not enough to take the series to Dust2, the final map of the series. 

This is the first Grand Final NAVI will be playing since Copenhagen and Aleksib was asked whether the team has gained their previous form that was lost after the Major. 

"After having played one game on the stage now, it feels like we are playing like we used to play and it feels good," Aleksib said. 

Talking about today's match against VP, Aleksib said, "We had a perfect game plan and I felt like everybody was super calm. Our last stage game was the final of the major. I am not sure if that affected anything but I felt like we were super ice-cold, which is something that we need very much. It's been a long while since we had such a dominating game or a map rather and it felt really good."
