A 2-1 Reverse Sweep Sends Spirit Into the BLAST Slam VIII Final

Team Spirit turned a game-one stumble into a 2-1 reverse sweep of PARIVISION in the BLAST Slam VIII lower-bracket final on October 11. The win sends Spirit into the grand final, while PARIVISION are out in third: another painful ending to a rivalry that already produced a five-game The International 2026 final won by Spirit.

The best-of-three, reported by GosuGamers, had a sharp change of direction after PARIVISION looked firmly in control. Spirit’s comeback secures them at least second place and US$135,000; PARIVISION leave with US$95,000. The deciding match against Team Yandex now has US$270,000 on the line.

PARIVISION took the opener in 38 minutes, finishing with a 33-17 kill advantage. No[o]ne led the charge with 15 kills, 12 assists and one death, while Satanic added nine kills and six assists. Spirit’s Phantom Lancer plan, played by Yatoro, could not stop PARIVISION from converting its early advantage into a series lead.

Game two stretched to 40 minutes, but this time Spirit’s teamfighting turned the contest around. They won 26-15 in kills and forced a decider, with Yatoro’s Kez posting 11 kills and seven assists against two deaths. Larl also supplied eight kills and 12 assists, helping Spirit level the series rather than let PARIVISION close it out.

Spirit finished the reverse sweep in a 42-minute third game. Yatoro’s Anti-Mage ended on 10 kills and 10 assists with only one death, while Larl contributed eight kills and 11 assists on Earth Spirit. Batyuk’s Lycan was part of the space-making setup that gave Yatoro room to come online, and Spirit’s early pressure disrupted PARIVISION’s mid-game plans.
