PARIVISION have shocked the Counter-Strike world by defeating Falcons 3:0 to win BLAST Bounty Season 1 2026. Jame’s young team of riflers burst onto the Tier 1 scene at last month’s Budapest Major, and they’ve rapidly translated this to a top event win by lifting the first BLAST Bounty trophy of 2026.

Coming into the series, Falcons were massively favored to lift the trophy, even playing with NucleonZ as a stand-in. NiKo and m0NESY have been playing lights-out throughout the event, and it all felt a little bit “IEM Dallas 2024” in how they were carrying their team on their backs.

The opener here was Mirage, where a massive 1.80-rated showing from nota was the difference between the two teams. Both he and Jame went huge on the CT side as PARIVISION opened it up with a 13:9 win. At 1:0, though, this best-of-five series was far from over.

Map two was where things started to get insurmountable for Falcons. PARIVISION edged it out 13:11, with zweih being the hero in the end. This was a map that Falcons should feel really got away from them – they started to find some momentum on the second-half T-side, but couldn’t see it through as PARIVISION fought back into it.

There were no nerves going into map three. If there were, PARIVISION certainly didn’t show it. Another huge showing from nota ensured they were not about to waste their opportunity to win their first-ever Tier 1 trophy. At 12:11, they took their one and only map point, condemning Falcons to yet another Grand Final loss. And for Jame, what better justice for his career is this? Over three years on from his Rio Major win, Jame is back on top with another team of young Russian riflers. Underestimate him at your peril.

The BLAST Premier Bounty S1 is the second BLAST CS event hosted in Malta as part of their multi-year deal with GamingMalta.
