BC.Game Masters has revealed the list of teams competing in its inaugural edition, operated by esports tournament organiser Vanta.

A total of 24 teams from across the world will head to Bucharest, Romania, for a chance to compete for a $50,000 (~£37,170) prize pool and Valve Regional Standings (VRS) points.

Several European teams are attending the Tier 2 tournament due to its scheduling in a packed Counter-Strike 2 calendar. With the cut-off for the IEM Cologne Major set for April 6th, BC.Game Masters is one of the last events to earn VRS points that decide the 32 teams competing at the crowning event for Valve’s first-person shooter title.

From Europe, the likes of Fnatic, GamerLegion, and Berlin International Gaming (BIG) have confirmed their attendance, alongside Gentle Mates, HEROIC, and OG Esports. Notably, Swedish esports organisation GODSENT is among the teams competing.

GODSENT’s attendance comes after it entered bankruptcy in September 2025. At the time of writing, the organisation hasn’t revealed its roster competing in its return to Counter-Strike esports.

Representing the Americas is the pair of Passion UA and BESTIA. Currently ranked seventh and ninth in the Americas VRS, both teams have an opportunity to climb the standings and cement their place at the Major. BESTIA caught the attention of Counter-Strike fans after the Argentine organisation was replaced at the BLAST Austin Major after encountering visa issues.

For Passion UA, the event marks the debut of Azbayar ‘Senzu’ Munkhbold, who joined the team on loan from The MongolZ following his benching in October 2025.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
