Former Bad News Eagles star rigoN has signed for German organisation BIG.
The move marks the end of a short spell out of action for the Swiss player after GUILD Eagles were released following their failure to qualify for the PGL Major Copenhagen 2024.
It also marks the end of BIG having an entirely German lineup, having returned to a full German team following the benching of mantuu in February 2024.
rigoN was a key figure for Bad News Eagles as they went on impressive runs to qualify for consecutive Majors at PGL Antwerp 2022, IEM Rio 2022, and the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023.
The team also performed admirably in online tournaments finishing in second place in four CCT events.
However, the team struggled for form after finally getting representation from an organisation, leading to their eventual release and disbanding.
rigoN is the third member of the former GUILD team to find a new home, following on from juanflatroo and sinnopsyy who have both joined Into the Breach.
BIG fans won't have to wait long to see their new man in action, he will make his debut for BIG at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2024, which is set to kick off on July 29th.
