Team Vitality

Official Betting Partner of Team Vitality

Stake is thrilled to be the Official Betting Partner of Team Vitality, one of the most decorated teams in modern CSGO and CS2 history. This collaboration signifies a multi-year commitment, with the Stake logo prominently displayed on Vitality's jerseys. We're excited to join forces with Team Vitality during an incredible run. The team recently made history by winning two Major tournaments back-to-back, the first time this has happened in CS2 history, and the first time in Counter-Strike overall since 2019. With this latest trophy from Budapest, Team Vitality became back-to-back Major champions, winning in both versions of the game and winning two Majors in a row (CS:GO Paris 2023, CS2 Austin 2025, CS2 Budapest 2025) . Their dominant run in 2025 includes victories at ESL Pro League, IEM Katowice, IEM Melbourne, Austin Major, and now, after an impressive performance in Budapest, they can proudly call themselves #1 CS2 team in the world. Representing one of the greatest winning streaks in history, we couldn't be more excited to see what they’ll take on next.

A Legendary Roster

Team Vitality is home to some of the most skilled and iconic players in professional competitive gaming. Their current roster features the legendary in-game leader Dan "apEX" Madesclaire, who secured his Major number four this winter, making him one of only nine players in Counter-Strike history who have achieved titles at Cluj-Napoca 2015, Paris 2023, Austin 2025, and Budapest 2025. He also holds the record for the most tournament wins (35) by any player in CS history and the player with the most prize pool earnings ever. The world-class AWPer Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut, with a 3 MVP Major awards, the consistent lurker Shahar "flameZ" Shushan, the impactful rifler William "mezii" Merriman, and the tactically brilliant Robin "ropz" Kool, represent a formidable blend of experience and raw talent. ZywOo earned his 28th MVP award, setting a new all-time world record. Mezii has also made history of his own, becoming the first British player ever to win two CS Majors. These five stars have consistently showcased their dominance, making Team Vitality a true powerhouse in the Esports arena.

Impressive Growth
