Things are moving fast over at BC.Game. Hot off the heels of s1mple joining their squad, the CS2 newcomer isn’t wasting time making waves in the competitive scene. According to insider Alexey “OverDrive” Biryukov, the organisation is reportedly in talks to buy out three players from one of the “top” teams in Counter-Strike right now.

OverDrive, for those not in the loop, isn’t just some random name on the timeline. He’s a veteran of the scene, having competed professionally since 2013 with over 20 teams under his belt. These days, he’s more known for his insight and leaks than his fragging skills,  and when he talks, people listen.

The potential buyout, if it goes through, would mark a massive step forward for BC.Game, who are clearly looking to skip the “grind from the bottom” phase and go straight for top-tier status. Fans are already comparing their approach to that of Falcons, the Saudi-backed team who built their roster by pulling big names from around the scene. But not everyone’s convinced.

While the names of the targeted players haven’t been revealed, speculation is running wild in the community. If the deal does go ahead, it’ll mean massive changes not just for BC.Game, but for whatever top-tier team ends up losing three of their core players.

In the meantime, BC.Game’s current lineup, pr1metapz, CacaNito, nexa (IGL), s1mple, and aNdu, with emi coaching, is set to debut at the ESL Challenger League Season 50 Europe, Cup #1. Their first match against Apogee Esports kicks off August 11th, and all eyes will be on how this squad performs before any major shake-ups go down.

Whether they’re building a powerhouse or just throwing cash at the wall to see what sticks, one thing’s for sure: BC.Game’s serious about making a mark.
