StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Official Rosters: Every Confirmed Lineup Revealed

Ahead of the 2nd major of 2025, StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Official Rosters have been announced through an official X (formerly Twitter) post. The official roster lists the names of every primary and substitute player submitted by all 32 teams participating in different phases of the prestigious tournament. While most teams have opted for their bench players, academy geniuses, or coaches, we could see a few exceptions that could shock the CS2 community.

For example, Maden, who had not been registered with any team, will now be on Ninjas in Pyjamas' roster as a substitute. Meanwhile, the star contenders of the Major, Team Falcons, have enlisted kRaSnal as their sixth member. That said, this article will list all the Counter-Strike 2 StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Official Rosters and substitutes before diving into Phase 1 of the tournament on November 24, 2025.
