BIG Sign blameF

The German organization BIG has officially announced significant roster changes in their Counter-Strike 2 lineup. Benjamin “blameF” Bremer has joined the team from fnatic, and Tizian “tiziaN” Feldbusch has taken the position of assistant coach.

blameF — the new IGL of BIG

The 28-year-old Dane has joined BIG as the captain and in-game leader. Previously, he held this position at Astralis and is now tasked with building a new game structure for the team. blameF replaces Lukas “FreeZe” Hegmann, who was appointed IGL in October but left the roster after just three months.

BIG emphasized that the organization valued not only the player's individual skills but also his game vision and leadership qualities. According to management, blameF brings a clear structure, responsibility, and a strategic approach that the team has been lacking.

Transition from fnatic and debut

blameF spent about a year and a half with fnatic, during which he helped the team qualify for the Shanghai Major and Budapest Major. Within BIG, he will become the second foreign player following the addition of Gleb “gr1ks” Gazin in 2025.

blameF is expected to make his debut for the new team at the CCT Season 3 Europe Series 13, scheduled to start on January 18.

tiziaN returns to BIG

Along with signing blameF, BIG also announced the return of tiziaN, this time as an assistant coach. The former player of the organization will assist head coach Sebastian “xenn” Hoch, enhancing the work with team dynamics and match preparation.

The club highlighted that tiziaN understands BIG's internal culture well and has extensive experience on the scene, which is expected to positively influence the roster rebuilding process.

• Johannes “tabseN” Wodarz
