James Banks raises one of the biggest questions in competitive Counter-Strike right now: Can anyone beat Vitality? Following an incredible 2025 season, Team Vitality has shattered expectations by winning seven consecutive trophies, a Major, and even clinching the Intel Grand Slam—securing an extra $1 million prize. The only event they lost was the BLAST Bounty S1, but everything after that has been complete domination.
Banks dissects how this team became nearly untouchable, analyzing their roster strength, strategic execution, and mental resilience. He explores what makes Vitality so formidable—and whether any current team has the tools or firepower to take them down. From individual star power to near-flawless team chemistry, Vitality has redefined what peak performance looks like. But as Banks points out, no dynasty is forever. The big question remains: who’s next to challenge the kings of CS?
