Esports tournament organiser BLAST has unveiled the 32 teams competing in BLAST Bounty Season 1 2026, the first Tier 1 Counter-Strike 2 tournament of the year.
Teams begin the tournament competing in online qualifiers, with the top eight securing qualification for the LAN finals taking place in Malta.
The 32 teams in attendance were invited based on December’s Valve Regional Standings (VRS), where FURIA topped the table after a strong end to 2025.
The Brazilian organisation is among several powerhouse rosters competing. It joins the likes of StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 winners Team Vitality, Team Falcons, FaZe Clan and Team Spirit, looking to begin the year on the front foot.
