Getting into YaLLa Compass Spring 2025 as last-minute replacements for Ardour UA, the younger weapons at NAVI Junior have managed to go all the best way to win the match. A powerful closing day noticed them beat Dynamo ECLOT and ENCE, having way more bother getting over the road within the Semi-Ultimate in opposition to the previous than the Grand Ultimate in opposition to the latter. Right here’s how they did it.
NAVI Junior overcame adversity to make the Ultimate
Credit score: NAVI
NAVI Junior’s Playoff run started within the Semi-Finals, the place they required a reverse-sweep to take down a Dynamo ECLOT crew which have surpassed all expectations at YaLLa Compass Spring 2025. It isn’t straightforward to thrive in these circumstances, so to see them maintain their nerves to safe a spot within the Ultimate within the first place is a superb signal that these gamers are the actual deal.
In that first sequence, NAVI Junior needed to depend on makazze to hold them over the road with 58 kills throughout all three maps. We’ve highlighted makazze as a future star in our earlier YaLLa Compass protection, and he has solely continued to say that notion along with his efforts on this Semi-Ultimate.

Then, we come to the Ultimate. There was a lot much less resistance right here, with NAVI Junior taking the Ultimate in a fairly swift 2:0 sequence. It is a crew that has received on-line tournaments earlier than, however nothing on the dimensions of YaLLa Compass Spring 2025, the place they’ve managed to win an enormous $150,000 money prize. For context, that is greater than the principle NAVI lineup have received at any CS2 match this yr, so it’s an enormous deal.
They only dominated ENCE from begin to end, in what was a surprisingly simple Grand Ultimate. It is going to be one to neglect for ENCE, however for NAVI Junior, there’s no higher argument that this roster may deserve to remain collectively underneath one other group, the place they’ll be capable of get invited to Tier 1 occasions as they climb the VRS. Because it stands, any invitations for NAVI Junior that battle with the principle roster must be declined, which feels unfair given their efficiency at YaLLa Compass Spring 2025.
