Changes in the list of participants of BLAST Rising

On the eve of the start of the BLAST Rising tournament, BLAST and Fantasyexpo announce changes of the participants list. MAD Lions and Tricked have taken spots over Anonymo and Sprout, who canceled their participation in the event. BLAST Rising starts tomorrow, May 3.

Anonymo and Sprout had to make the tough decision to withdraw from the BLAST Rising tournament after winning promotion to the third season of FLASHPOINT. The tournament organisers managed to find a replacement for the aforementioned teams. In Group B, Tricked will play instead of Sprout, while Anonymo will be replaced by MAD Lions. Both teams consist of young and very promising players, who perfectly fit into the idea of BLAST Rising to support up-and-coming teams in the CS:GO scene.

List of participants:

• Group A – May 3-4
