A fourth ESL Pro League title lifts Vitality to prize-money summit

Team Vitality beat MOUZ 3-0 in the ESL Pro League Season 24 grand final, moving above Natus Vincere in Counter-Strike’s all-time prize-money rankings. Vitality’s listed total is $13,886,593, a lead of $204,133 over NAVI’s $13,682,460.

The result put Vitality first in the historical standings, based on prize-money figures attributed to Liquipedia and dated October 12, 2026. The organisation entered the final with $13,591,593, approximately $91,000 behind NAVI, according to Pley.gg’s report.

The series was a sweep, but MOUZ pushed Vitality to overtime on Dust2 after reaching match point. Vitality took Cache 13-8 and Inferno 13-7 before closing Dust2 16-12 to secure the title.

The Season 24 trophy was Vitality’s fourth ESL Pro League title, making it the first organisation to win the competition more than three times. NAVI, MOUZ, Astralis and Fnatic have three titles apiece. Vitality has won three of the last four seasons, with NAVI taking Season 23 in March.

Robin ‘ropz’ Kool claimed a record sixth ESL Pro League title, having won with MOUZ, FaZe Clan and Vitality. Mathieu ‘ZywOo’ Herbaut was named event MVP, his 34th career MVP award according to HLTV, and finished the final with a 1.65 rating.

Vitality’s wider leadership and brand ambitions form a separate part of the organisation’s growth story, while NAVI remains a leading name in the Counter-Strike scene.

Vitality’s next scheduled event is PGL Bucharest. A predicted VRS update after the final placed Vitality first and MOUZ second, although Valve’s official rankings update monthly. The all-time prize-money order may shift again as teams compete in upcoming events, but the current standings put Vitality at the top.
