BIG’s offiical Twitter (formerly X) handle posted the following: “Update about our CS-Roster. rigoN‘s contract is set to expire at the end of the month, and we’re actively in talks with players we believe could be a strong fit for the role. syrsoN‘s contract is also coming to an end soon, and we’re discussing several possible options for the future. As soon as we’ve made a final decision, we’ll share more information.“
Not the run they hoped for
The German player first joined BIG back in January 2020 and stayed on the team for almost three years, leaving in August 2023. Later, he returned to BIG early this year in February after a short stint at 00NATION - here, syrsoN replaced Mateusz "mantuu" Wilczewski's and became the team’s rifler, playing in his most comfortable role.
syrsoN was in decent shape, and if we look at his performance in totality, he has had a 1.02 rating on LAN. Notably, he’s performed at his best at IEM Cologne 2024, boasting a 1.18 rating, at ESL Challenger Atlanta, a trophy he helped bring home and at the Perfect World Shanghai Major RMR, where BIG qualified flawlessly. However, it was not meant to be as the team was sent home in the Opening Stage, ending the roster’s Major dream for the year.
While the organization has yet to announce who will replace syrsoN, the same reliable sources that brought us the benching leaks have added that BIG will most probably try to sign academy player Marcel "hyped" Köhn to fill the vacant AWP spot on the roster left behind by syrsoN. Compared to syrsoN, hyped is quite young, currently at the age of 23, and spent the 2024 season on loan at ALTERNATE aTTaX, who recently announced a whole new lineup for 2025 featuring four members of the old Reveal squad.
Sometimes, the intense aim duels and strategic battles across different CS2 maps are too much. After a long day of grinding the ranks, there are times when you just want to chill out and cool down.

Today, we find out everything about surfing in CS2.
CS2 came as an update for CS: GO, but it was also an entirely new game in the Counter-Strike series. It brought a variety of new features while keeping the essence of the game and all the elements that made fans fall in love with the series. But CS2 also made people switch from the old version of the game to a new one. Moreover, those who never had access to CS: GO can only download the new CS2 game from Steam. So, how to get CS2 access in 2024? Furthermore, is it available for everyone? We’ll get into all of that and more in the paragraphs below.
Knives are some of the most valuable items in CS2. They are a favorite option for anyone who plays the game regularly.

But what is the most expensive knife in CS2? This post will reveal the priciest options, so let’s get started.
