Rumor: Copenhagen Flames may become participant of FLASHPOINT Season 1

Well-known insider Jarek 'DeKay' Lewis said that BIG received an invitation to another CS:GO league, ESL Pro League Season 11, where they will replace Heroic. According to recent rumors, South Korean esports club FunPlus Phoenix may buy Heroic and purchase a slot in FLASHPOINT Season 1.

BIG became one of the participants in FLASHPOINT due to the successful performance in the LAN-qualification, which was recently held in Los Angeles. Copenhagen Flames could not qualify for this championship, having been defeated in the European qualification.

On March 6, FLASHPOINT organizers revealed that the first season will be held from April 13 to 19 at FACEIT in Los Angeles without the presence of spectators. In addition, the playoffs in Stockholm were canceled, and the outbreak of the coronavirus was the main reason for the above circumstances. With these actions, the organizers want to take additional precautions.
