S1mple’s CS2 Team In Rebuild Mode

By Joonas Salminen

BC.Game’s ambitious CS2 project has officially entered rebuild mode. After benching CacaNito and previously parting ways with IGL nexa and coach emi, only three players remain on the roster — s1mple, electroNic, and aNdu. What was once marketed as a potential superteam is now a question mark heading into 2026. With no clear leadership, shrinking depth, and mounting pressure, BC.Game face a decisive off-season that will define the future of s1mple’s next chapter.

BC.Game’s CS2 project has entered full rebuild mode after a turbulent and disappointing end of 2025. The team just announced benching on rifler CacaNito. CacaNito joined BC.Game organizationin June 2024 and was the longest-serving member of the roster.

This will be the third change that BC.Game makes this 2025 CS2 Christmas break. As we talked earlier, the team already benched ”emi” and ”nexa”. Our article about emi departure

The lineup is left now with only three active players:

Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev, Andreas “aNdu” Maasing, and Denis “electroNic” Sharipov.

CacaNitos CS2 stats in the team looked like this:

1.00 HLTV 3.0 Rating
0.91 last three months HLTV Rating
228 maps
Two LAN appearances: IEM Dallas and Red Bull GIBAWAY JOURNEY
One event win at ESL Challenge League Season 50 Europe Cup 2 after s1mple was added in the lineup

The ongoing shake-ups come after the organization surprised the CS2 community by signing three-time HLTV #1 player s1mple in July 2025, following his departure from NAVI after nearly a decade. S1mple created enormous amount of buzz when he arrived to the marketed CS2-superteam. Now it’s time to build a counter-strike lineup that works, to silence the CS2 fans.

BC.Game is going to have a critical training season to succeed in the 2026 CS2 Events.
