Vertigo is ignored at BLAST Premier Spring Final 2024: Dust2 Dominates the Map Selection

For the first time in many tournaments, Vertigo was not selected even once for the competition, which calls into question its popularity and effectiveness in the modern CS2 tactical landscape.

In contrast to Vertigo, Dust2 continued to demonstrate its continued popularity, becoming the most frequently selected map in this tournament. It was selected in 84% of all games, which shows its stability and favorite among high-level teams. It also emphasizes its importance as a classic card that requires strategic thinking and adaptability.

The total number of times the cards have been chosen in the tournament has a significant variety. Other popular maps such as Inferno and Mirage also appeared frequently in matches, but none could compete with Dust 2 for attention and team selection.

This trend in map selection may affect future team strategies and map selection in future tournaments, especially as teams are constantly looking for a tactical advantage. The results of the BLAST Premier Spring Final 2024 can be an important lesson for map developers and tournament organizers around the world, emphasizing the importance of variety and balance in CS2 gameplay.
