BIG have handed a trial to Niels "luckeRRR" Jasiek, team manager Christian "PsYcHo" Lenz has revealed.

At an AMA [Ask Me Anything] session live on Twitch, the BIG chief said that Niels "⁠luckeRRR⁠" Jasiek will play for the team in the playoffs of Farmskins Championship #2, which will reward the winner with the final spot at IEM Katowice.

BIG currently have a three-man roster after Nikola "⁠LEGIJA⁠" Ninić stepped down from the roster and Kevin "⁠keev⁠" Bartholomäus was moved to the bench. The decision followed a series of mixed results from the German team that culminated with an early exit from the Major in the New Legends Stage, with a 1-3 record.

BIG are currently analysing their options

luckeRRR, 21, has played for teams like uX, EYES ON U and WiseWizards in the past. According to PsYcHo, the player "lost two years due to an unjustified VAC ban" that he helped to lift after contacting Valve, which admitted that a mistake had been made.

BIG's manager added that he plans to have the line-up set in a fortnight's time and that the team are considering the option of testing foreign players who speak German.
