Team Yandex closed out Blast Slam 7 with a 3-1 victory over LGD Gaming in the grand final, claiming the $400,000 first-place prize.

The tournament ran from May 26 to June 7 in a mixed format, with playoffs held in Copenhagen. Team Yandex dominated most of the series but dropped one map to LGD due to a strong draft.

LGD had earned their spot in the final after a tense 2-1 lower bracket win over BetBoom Team. BetBoom nearly squandered a 33,000 gold lead on the second map before recovering to force a decider. The third map lasted 57 minutes, ending with LGD wiping BetBoom without losing a single hero.

TaiLung was named the tournament’s best player, rounding out a strong showing for Team Yandex. The event featured a $1,000,000 prize pool, with Team Yandex’s victory marking the culmination of their playoff run.

The grand final highlighted Team Yandex’s consistency, though LGD’s lone map win proved they could challenge even the strongest teams with the right strategy. The series wrapped up a competitive tournament that tested every team’s adaptability across multiple stages.

With Blast Slam 7 concluded, attention shifts to upcoming Dota 2 majors and regional leagues. Team Yandex’s performance solidifies their position as a top contender, while LGD will look to refine their drafts and late-game execution for future events.
