The Chennai Esports Global Championship (CEGC) 2026 is underway, and 32 BGMI teams are fighting for 16 Grand Finals spots and a share of ₹75 lakh. Some rosters look nothing like they did a few months ago. An IGL who won two titles in 2024 is back with his old org. And a few players are now lining up against the team they just left.
Below is every registered roster, with each player’s role as submitted to the organisers. If you only want to find your team, scroll straight to the group tables.
Each team registered four main players and up to two substitutes. Teams can still rotate players between matches.

CEGC 2026 Group B Teams | Image Credit: Skyesports / Instagram
Assaulters outnumber supports almost three to one. 14 of the 32 teams registered no support at all. Team AX, WELT Esports and Team Hector listed every non-IGL player as an assaulter, while Blitz Esports and Lastade Esports went all-in on fraggers. Most teams that did list a support put them on the bench rather than in the main four. Teams are clearly building around aggression, and we will find out over the group stage whether that holds up.
Only six teams named a filter IGL, a backup shot-caller: Gladiators, Meta Ninza, Team Outrage, Raven, 4TR Official and GoSolo Higgboson. Madkings went another way and registered two full IGLs, ShadowOG and Clutchgoddd.
Which transfer storylines should you watch at CEGC 2026?
Shadow is back at Revenant XSpark, and NinjaJOD is a substitute. Revenant XSpark announced Shadow’s return today, along with BGMS champion Phoenix. On the CEGC sheet, Shadow is the IGL, and the main four are Shadow, Phoenix, Pain and Trace. NinjaJOD, the team’s IGL at BMSD 2026, is registered as a substitute fragger. Analyst Chirag is also registered as a substitute. Read the full story in our report on Shadow’s return to Revenant XSpark.
Sukuna, who left Revenant XSpark in the latest shake-up, is now a substitute at Meta Ninza. That’s the team Shadow just came from, so the two have effectively swapped places. ProToN is registered with iQOO Team Tamilas. Punkk captains VR1 Esports, and JDGaming is a substitute filter IGL at Team Outrage. Meta Ninza, Team Outrage and RNTX are all in Group B, so some of these reunions will happen early.
Nebula won BGMS Season 5 in September, but its CEGC lineup is completely different. OWAIS is the IGL, with MAFIAA, VENOM and ScaryJoD. Meanwhile AADIII and KNOWME, names that match Nebula’s BGMS IGL Aadi and Finals MVP KnowMe, are registered together under Vasista Esports.
K9 Esports brings Taurus06, who won Best Clutch at BMIC 2026 in Mumbai last weekend. Gladiators, the best Indian team at BMIC in fourth place, kept Aquanox as filter IGL.

The top 8 from Group Stage 1 go straight to the Upper Bracket. The other 24 play Group Stage 2, a round robin, where the top 8 join the Upper Bracket and the bottom 16 drop to the Lower Bracket. The Upper Bracket’s top 8 qualify for the Grand Finals. The rest of the Grand Finals field comes through the Last Chance Qualifier, which takes the bottom 8 from the Upper Bracket and the top 8 from the Lower Bracket.
During Group Stage 1, each group plays four matches a day: Rondo, Erangel, Erangel and Miramar. Group A starts at 1 PM IST and Group B at 4 PM IST. Matches stream on Skyesports’ Kick channel.
