Sources: CeRq’s EG future in doubt as team turns to young trio for BLAST Premier

Tsvetelin ‘CeRq’ Dimitrov could be on his way out of Evil Geniuses, who have enlisted the services of two Blueprint prospects and one Nouns player for the BLAST Premier Spring Groups, sources have told Dexerto.

Evil Geniuses have registered EG White player Wesley ‘viz’ Harris and EG Black member Jerric ‘wiz’ Jiang for the BLAST Premier event, with CeRq left out of the team’s roster for the tournament. Nouns star Jeorge ‘jeorgesnorts⁠’ Endicott, who has been scrimming with EG Black in recent weeks, is also part of the lineup.

Dust2.us cites multiple sources saying that CeRq is out of the team, though the reason for this decision is still unclear. The Bulgarian has been with Evil Geniuses since September 2019, when the North American organization signed NRG’s roster.

It remains unclear which of the three players will replace CeRq in the BLAST Premier Groups, but all logic points to wiz, who is the AWPer for EG Black. The 21-year-old has averaged a 1.14 HLTV rating while with the team, which is part of Evil Geniuses’ Blueprint project, a development program for CS:GO that was heavily influenced by the analytics-driven approach that proved successful for the organization’s League of Legends team.
