Boye moves to the bench<\/h2>

BBL first announced that Boye had been moved to a substitute position effective immediately.<\/p>

The 22-year-old had been part of the lineup since BBL entered Counter-Strike at the end of August.<\/p>

During his time in the starting lineup, BBL reached 3rd–4th place at ROG JOURNEY Autumn 2026 after defeating BC.Game in the quarter-final before losing to Ninjas in Pyjamas.<\/p>

The team also reached the semifinals of the Thunderpick World Championship 2026 Closed Qualifier but did not qualify for the main event.<\/p>

MistR officially joins BBL<\/h2>

Shortly after the benching of Boye, BBL officially announced MistR as the fifth player in the CS2 lineup.<\/p>

The move had been reported earlier by Turkish outlet Arhaval, which stated that the sides had reached an agreement.<\/p>

MistR became available after mutually parting ways with Sashi on October 8.<\/p>

The Danish player had previously been removed from the starting lineup alongside Casper “Cabbi” Jensen when Sashi added Tynan “TjP” Purtell and Jordan “Hatz” Bajic as part of an attempt to establish an Asia-region majority in VRS.<\/p>

Valve later introduced a rule preventing rosters from receiving a regional assignment if they had appeared in another regional VRS list during the previous three calendar months, ending the planned short-term switch.<\/p>

MistR subsequently left Sashi and has now immediately returned to an active lineup with BBL.<\/p>
