Andrey “tN1R” Tatarinovich is a professional Counter-Strike 2 player from Belarus, born on February 14, 2001. He plays as a rifler and, since September 8, 2025, has been part of Team Spirit, joining from HEROIC.
tN1R’s career started in early 2020 in smaller Eastern European teams. One of his first serious steps was Zorka, an academy-style team where he had to earn his spot through trials. After that, he spent time in forZe School, another development roster, and kept building experience by playing many officials against strong regional opponents. He later found more stability and growth with Websterz, then moved into bigger organizations like forZe’s main roster and GUN5—a team known for giving him a clearer role and more exposure in high-level online events. For CS2 players watching his path, this is a good example of how consistent regional results can turn into offers from top teams.
In January 2025, he joined HEROIC, which pushed him into regular international competition. With HEROIC, he won notable events like CCT Season 2 Global Finals and the LAN title MESA Nomadic Masters Spring 2025. He also reached a Major level by qualifying for BLAST Austin 2025, a milestone that put him among the first Belarusian players to appear at a Counter-Strike Major. After transferring to Team Spirit, he quickly started playing deep into elite tournaments—by December 2025, Spirit were in Major playoffs, including a playoff match against Vitality.
As a rifler, tN1R is valued for reliable mechanics and rounds where he can chain multi-kills or stay calm in late-round decisions—skills that matter when your team needs someone to convert tight situations into wins.
