ESL Pro League is one of the biggest events in professional CS:GO, bringing teams from all over the world together to fight it out for bragging rights and plenty of prize money.

It’s a big event, and not just for its prestige. Teams earned points for the ESL Pro Tour and BLAST Premier, with several qualifying for the showcase events later in the year. Here’s what you need to know about Season 14, and how NAVI took home the gold.

ESL Pro League Season 14 recap

24 of the world’s best CSGO teams battled it out in Group Stages to start off the season. By the beginning of September, that number had been cut in half for the beginning of the playoffs.

Vitality breezed through Gambit and OG to set themselves up in the Grand Final, and NAVI didn’t have too much trouble taking down ENCE and Heroic to do the same. Heroic’s refrezh might have had the best play of the tournament, but that wouldn’t help them against NAVI in the Semis.

The Grand Final was a battle though, and at times it seemed like the momentum could swing either way. Vitality fought hard, but in the end, it would be NAVI wrapping things up 16-14 on Mirage.

Not only did s1mple and company take home the EPL trophy, NAVI also locked up the Intel Grand Slam. By winning IEM Katowice 2020, DreamHack Masters Spring, IEM Cologne 2021, and now ESL Pro League Season 14, they’ll be taking home an additional $1,000,000, on top of the $175,000 grand prize.
