Recently, they’ve been adding players to switch things up and allow for substitutions. Read on to see how the Astralis new roster will look at ESL One Cologne!
Burn-out is a tragic and yet normal occurrence in esports. Indeed, with the number of events per year and the pressure to stay on top, a human mind can only take so much challenge.
In this sense, both “Gla1ve” and “Xyp9x” have stepped back from the roster for this reason. Luckily, with substitutes ready for Atralis, a new roster is ready for the upcoming event:
- Patrick “es3tag” Hansen – transferred from Heroic
- Lukas “Bubzkji” Andersen – transferred from MAD Lions
- The core three of “device”, “dupreeh” and “Magisk”
So, will this Astralis new roster find the success associated with the organization?
With recent hints that “Gla1ve” might be back from his break, this might be the youngsters’ only chance to show off their potential.
Heading into the $325,000 European Division of ESL One Cologne, there’s definitely expectation on the roster’s head. Kicking off on 18th August, the community is anxious to see the probably, temporary roster, perform.
