2022 got off to a scary start for MIBR devotees. The team’s parent organisation, Immortals Gaming Club (IGC), decided to sell the team’s seat in the BLAST Premier Series in May, despite the fact that the brand is an icon in Brazilian esports, particularly for its successful past in Counter-Strike.Such a move raised questions about the organization’s near-term viability, and some Brazilian rumours even suggested that the IGC’s affiliation with Brazil would soon come to an end. The BLAST spot sale, however, was only a temporary setback before MIBR took off for the remainder of the year, as the subsequent months demonstrated.
