The GOAT League 2023 Summer Vacation is history, and we have Team olofmeister crowned champions of the tournament by defeating Team Pimp in the Grand Final with a score of 2-1. In addition, the team captained by Swedish legend Olof “olofmeister” Kajbjer Gustafsson took home $100,000 in prize money.

The GOAT League 2023 Summer Vacation is a tournament much like the showmatches in top-tier CS:GO tournaments. As a result, each team captain forms their lineup with different male and female professional players, content creators and even coaches.

There is no doubt that these types of tournaments attract a lot of attention from the community, especially because of the large cash prize that was distributed. $250,000 is normally distributed in an official CS:GO top-level tournament.

1xBet GOAT League Summer Vacation 2023

First, let’s know a little about the 1xBet GOAT League Summer VACation. This is a tournament where eight teams came together that were captained by eight very important members within the CS:GO community; these are:

Team olofmeister vs. Team Pimp – Grand Final Recap

Olofmeister took the victory in the 1xBet GOAT League Summer VACation after a hard-fought BO3 series against Team Pimp with a score of 2-1.

The 1xBet GOAT League Summer VACation Grand Final was played on Dust II (olof), Ancient (Pimp), and Train (decider).

As we can see, unlike the official CS:GO tournaments, in the 1xBet GOAT League Summer VACation, all the available maps of the game were played, not the official map pool for competitive tournaments. That is why both Dust II and Train were played because although they are not in the official map pool, they are still available within the game. Also, it is worth noting that the community selected Train through a vote on Twitch.

Dust II

It all started in Dust II, Team olofmeister’s map pick, where we observed a spectacular level of play from one of the greatest CS:GO players in history, Richard “shox” Papillon. The Frenchman led his team to a 16-8 victory to start the tournament’s grand finale on the right foot.

Ancient

Then, in Ancient, Team Pimp’s map pick, the tables were completely turned. Mihai “iM” Ivan led his team to take the Overtime victory 19-16 to even the grand final at 1-1.

Train

Finally, Tomáš “oskar” Šťastný played hero for Team olofmeister on Train, the decisive map. As a result, with an excellent 114.2 ADR and 1.70 Rating, he led his team to a comfortable 16-8 victory to become tournament champions.
