MOUZ won BLAST Bounty Season 2 after beating Spirit 3–1 in the grand final in Malta. The August 2 victory delivered the organization’s first trophy of 2026, while Spinx was named tournament MVP.

The final also produced first tier-one titles for xelex and PR. BLAST reported that MOUZ earned $226,563 from the prize pool plus a $40,000 club share.

MOUZ built the final around two fast map wins

Spirit opened the best-of-five on its pick of Dust2, but MOUZ took the map 13–8. Spinx finished it with 23 kills and eight deaths, establishing the individual advantage that shaped the first half of the series.

Mirage was even more one-sided. MOUZ held Spirit to four rounds and moved within one map of the trophy. Spirit extended the match by winning Ancient 13–9, where donk recorded 21 kills.

Nuke decided the title. MOUZ closed the map 13–10, with Spinx adding another 20 kills. His grand-final total reached 78 across four maps, according to BLAST’s official recap.

The result completes a difficult 2026 rebuild

The trophy matters beyond a single final. MOUZ entered the event after multiple roster changes, then converted its Malta run against a Spirit lineup that had been favoured by recent head-to-head history.

For tactical context, our CS2 map veto preparation guide explains why a best-of-five requires more than one comfort pick. The series also shows the value of the reset process covered in our second-map reset analysis: MOUZ followed its opening win with an even stronger Mirage.

MOUZ’s title is now a completed result. It should not be used alone to project the team’s next tournament, where opposition, map pool and form will need fresh evidence.
