BB CEO: FL4MUS's loan contract has been extended, and he will travel with the team to IEM Atlanta.

BetBoom CEO Artem Savelev (ID: Pioneer) confirmed on Wednesday that former OG player Timur Maliev (ID: FL4MUS) will continue to play for the team on loan at IEM Atlanta 2026.

“FL4MUS is the best fit for us in Atlanta,” he explained to HLTV. “We’ve already played in three events together, so we’ve developed a certain rapport. The coaching staff also knows exactly how and where to best utilize his strengths.”

FL4MUS, 21, plays rifle and has played for several CS:GO teams including Spirit Academy, PARTIZAN, Fade Gaming, Maybe, RCL, 163ON, INVSN, POLET, Nemiga, GamerLegion, Virtus.pro, and OG. His career highlights include reaching the playoffs of the 2024 Perfect World Shanghai Major and the third stage of the 2025 BLAST.tv Austin Major.

Since joining BB on loan in March of this year, FL4MUS has perfectly filled the void left by Daniel Kustov (ID: d1Ledez) due to visa issues. During his consecutive appearances in BC.Game Masters Championship Season 1, Roman Empire Sound Cup Season 7, and Stake Ranked Season 1, he played a total of 25 maps and participated in 555 rounds, with an average personal rating of 1.11.

Due to the unresolved visa issue with d1Ledez, BB decided to extend FL4MUS's loan contract, which was originally scheduled to run until the beginning of this month. He will continue to replace d1Ledez at the IEM Atlanta event from May 11th to 17th, although the latter will remain a member of the starting lineup.

With FL4MUS's return, BB's expected lineup for the 2026 IEM Atlanta is as follows:

Commander: Kirill Mikhailov (ID: Boombl4)

Rifleman: Pavel Ogloblin (ID: S1ren)

Rifleman: Kirill Rodnov (ID: Magnojez)

Sniper: Alexander Zagodilenko (ID: zorte)

Rifleman: Timur Maliev (ID: FL4MUS)

Coach: Artem Ivanov (ID: Fierce)
