Pimp: For me, PARIVISION has never been a championship level team

Counter-Strike 2 analyst Jacob Pimp Winneche spoke about PARIVISION's results last season. Custer stated that he did not consider the team a contender for all trophies after winning BLAST Bounty Winter 2026. Pimp shared his thoughts in a video for the Last Free Nation Counter-Strike YouTube channel.

PARIVISION won the BLAST Bounty Winter 2026, and that in itself was great, they performed well in the playoffs. But the Falcons were on standby, the Spirit had just traded two players and chosen a new captain, so there was a reason why PARIVISION's victory was possible. Then you could choose your opponents, it was the first championship of the season - everything worked out for a sensation. But then people started saying: "Okay, now PARIVISION is a top team. They can win IEM Krakow or even a major." So, they just needed to shut up. PARIVISION had no chance. At the same time, the team performed better than I thought, they managed to establish themselves as a strong team. During the season, there was a defeat in the final of PGL Cluj-Napoca 2026 by Vitality, but the fact that they were there at all, and also beat the Falcons, exceeded all my expectations. At the same time, for me, PARIVISION has never been a championship level team. I would never call her a title contender, even though she already had one. So I think you can always expect a shock result from any given match, but if you look at the tournament as a whole, it's very unlikely that a club will win it by luck. This rarely happens, and that's good, but the possibility does exist.

PARIVISION started 2026 with a victory at BLAST Bounty Winter 2026. After the tournament, the team took prizes at PGL Cluj-Napoca 2026 and BLAST Open Spring 2026, but the club decided to enter the new season with a different roster, inviting Vyacheslav Slaxejezzz Vinokurov and Evgeniy FL1T Lebedev.
