The Norwegian esports organization now has access to the benefits of being a Member Team of BLAST Premier, including a direct entry to BLAST\u2019s events like Spring and Fall Groups. <\/p>\n
Immortals Gaming Club, the owners of MIBR have sold their BLAST Premier Member Team slot to Heroic in what was described as a ‘highly competitive bidding process.’ <\/p>\n

Prior to the infusion of Heroic, Berlin International Gaming (BIG) was the newest BLAST Premier Member Team, which joined in 2021. <\/p>\n

“We thank MIBR for being one of our partners for the last two years. Their renowned and passionate Brazilian fanbase have ensured there\u2019s never been a dull moment, even when we had to pivot to online-only shows in 2020.”<\/p>\n
