The German AWPer Florian ‘syrsoN’ Rische has announced his departure from BIG and is currently in search of a new team.

syrsoN’s last event with BIG was the PW Shanghai Major.

His time with the team ended in December 2024, when he was moved to the bench. During his periods with BIG, his performance ratings fluctuated, particularly affected by the team’s struggles.

In 2024, he participated in several notable tournaments including ESL Pro Leagues, but BIG could not progress further in these competitions.

Despite not securing any titles in 2024, he came close at ESL Challenger Atlanta, where BIG finished as runners-up to FlyQuest. Ultimately, his final event of the year did not lead to a title either, as they lost to Arrow in the DACH Masters Season 2 Finals.
