BLAST R6 Transfer Window – DarkZero, FURIA and More Make Roster Changes

The BLAST R6 Transfer Window for Siege 2026-2027 is now open. With the Six Invitational now behind us, it’s time for rosters to make changes ahead of the upcoming year’s first phase.

Teams will have until March 4th 2026, at 9 AM CET to make any changes to their rosters ahead of the 2026-2027 season starting. This means that post-Six Invitational teams have around two weeks to prepare for the season. We’ll track any roster changes that take place before the close of the window in March.

BLAST R6 Transfer Window

North America

M80 – Leonardo “Kyno” Figueiredo Leaves the org – February 20th

After contract talks broke down, M80 and Leonardo “Kyno” Figueiredo have now parted ways ahead of the new season. Kyno is the last player left on M80 from when the org acquired XSET. Having spent three years with M80, Kyno will now look for a new roster.

Wildcard – Leonardo “Dash” Lopes departs after one year – February 20th

Dash announced on X that he was leaving the North American side, and would now look to return to Brazil to play for a roster in the region.

Oxygen Esports – Org drops Gryxr and Yoggah – February 20th

Both Pablo “Gryxr” Rebeil and Evan “Yoggah” Nelson announced on their X accounts that their time with Oxygen was up, with Gryxr being let go, while Yoggah has been allowed to explore his options.

DarkZero – Ben “CTZN” McMillan departs, likely moving to the EU/MENA region – February 19th

DarkZero has parted ways with Ben “CTZN” McMillan, the British player, who is now looking to move back to Europe, having been in America since 2022, when he left G2 Esports. Given Siege is entering the ENC this year, CTZN is one of the players hopeful of competing on the UK roster when that starts to come together.

Europe & MENA

Team Heretics – Skeptic benched – February 19th

Skeptic has been placed on the bench by Team Heretics ahead of the upcoming season and has been allowed to explore his option with other sides. Skeptic announced the news on X during the BLAST R6 transfer window. Although, there’s nothing official from Team Heretics at this time about a replacement.

South America

Furia – Gustavo “HerdsZ” Herdina only player left on the roster – February 19th

FURIA are the organisation to make the biggest changes so far, with the entire roster, bar Gustavo “HerdsZ” Herdina, being let go for the 2026-2027 season. For now, nothing has been confirmed as to who is coming in to replace them during the BLAST R6 transfer window.

Early rumours suggest Roberto “Loira” Camargo of G2 Esports and Gabriel “volpz” Fernandes of Fluxo W7M are likely part of the new roster, which will be led by HerdsZ in the next year of R6 esports starting.

APAC

Dplus Kia – José “Bullet1” Victor leaves Dplus Kia – February 19th

José “Bullet1” Victor has parted ways with Dplus Kia. Formerly of Team Liquid, FaZe Clan, and MIBR. As a native Portuguese and English speaker, Bullet1 is now looking for new options for the 2026 season. Having won the Sweden Major in 2021, Bullet1 is a winner, so we don’t suspect the Brazilian will have any problems finding a new home.

Weibo Gaming – Matthew “meepeY” Sharples let go – February 18th

Another British player moving on, this time it’s Matthew “meepeY” Sharples. meepeY started the season as the Head Coach of Weibo Gaming, having joined from Wildcard. However, later in the season, he was moved to the Assistant Coach role when Guilherme “gohaN” Alf came in as the coach. Now, meepeY is being moved on

Daystar – Cheng “JoeGor” Ka-hin Bench – February 18th

Another player set for the bench comes from Daystar, who has decided to move Cheng “JoeGor” Ka-hin to the bench for the 2026 season. The team announced the news on X, saying they are open to offers for the player via email during the BLAST R6 transfer window. With Daystar not performing their best at Si 2026, it was always likely that someone would take the fall for it, and for now, JoeGor looks like the one.

China

China will likely have a full host of rosters once those are confirmed when its season starts in 2026. As a new region, the BLAST R6 transfer window works a bit differently here.
