NAVI secure second trophy in Intel Grand Slam race

With their victory at IEM Rio 2024, NAVI tied FaZe for the most trophies in the current Intel Grand Slam season, with both teams winning two tournaments. NAVI became the first squad in 2024 to win two ESL Pro Tour events in a row.

Aleksi "Aleksib" Virolainen's roster needs to win two more ESL Pro Tour tournaments (including an Elite one) to secure the award. NAVI have eight more attempts to do so.

Currently, Team Spirit, MOUZ, G2, and Vitality are also competing for the prestigious award, with each team having one trophy to their credit.

Note that Astralis, Liquid, NAVI and FaZe are the previous winners of the Intel Grand Slam award, which has existed since 2018. The fifth season was announced in the spring of 2023, when ESL stated that the competition will begin in CS:GO and continue after the transition to CS2.
