TSM FTX, a leading global esports powerhouse, has officially revealed its new Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) lineup on Instagram. The roster draws from the acclaimed former Stalwarts Esports/ST8 (Six to Eight) squad, known for consistent high-level performances.
Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), Krafton's India-exclusive battle royale title, launched on July 2, 2021. Krafton kicked things off with the BGMI Launch Party tournament featuring top streamers and pros, followed by the BGMI India Series 2021 boasting a massive INR 1 crore prize pool.
With major tournaments on the horizon, esports orgs are scrambling to build elite BGMI teams. TSM India, fresh off dropping its dominant PUBG Mobile roster—including stars like Jonathan, Clutchgod, Neyoo, Zgod, and Ghatak—has now entered the BGMI scene ahead of BGIS 2021.

As esports insiders had anticipated, TSM FTX acquired the ex-Stalwarts Esports/ST8 roster. The official Instagram announcement spotlights these proven talents:
The post reads: "We're incredibly excited to introduce to you all today our newest BGMI roster. We can't wait to achieve greatness with our new team 🏆🇮🇳"
They added: "Please give a warm welcome to the team."
Earlier this month, TSM India parted ways with its world-class PUBG Mobile lineup, renowned for aggressive playstyles. Rumors suggested GodLike Esports might pick up the ex-TSM players, but nothing's confirmed yet.
The ST8 roster boasts a strong track record, including third place at PUBG Mobile Club Open Fall Split 2020 and qualification for PUBG Mobile Pro League South Asia—cut short by the game's ban in India. After splitting from Starwaltz Esports in December 2020, they reformed as ST8 and dominated scrims and minor events.
Esports veterans will watch closely as this squad competes under TSM FTX's banner in the BGMI India Series 2021.
