Belarusian esports club Nemiga has announced changes to its Counter-Strike 2 roster. The organization has moved captain Alexander “1eeR” Nagorny to the bench, with former Spirit Academy player Nikita “robo” Dushin taking his place in the starting five.
According to the official announcement, robo will take over the captain role on a trial basis for the team’s upcoming tournaments. The updated Nemiga roster will make its debut at BLAST Bounty Season 2, which starts on July 21.
For 1eeR, this is already his second move to the bench this year. The 24-year-old Belarusian player previously represented Nemiga from August 2022 to January 2026, after which the organization removed him from the active roster and placed him on the transfer list. However, Nagorny returned to the lineup in February and once again took on the IGL role.
After 1eeR’s return, Nemiga had a successful stretch of the season. The team won several online tournaments, including ECL Season 51 Europe Cup 2, BC Game Masters Season 1, and CCT Europe Series 1. At its peak, the roster climbed to 29th place in the global VRS ranking. At the same time, 1eeR himself averaged a 0.96 rating over the past three months across 57 maps.
Team coach Anton “boX” Burko noted that 1eeR reliably led the roster through a difficult period and fully dedicated himself to the work. However, Nemiga decided to try new approaches and change the team’s in-game structure.
