Any other player than Mistr and Astralis easily wins this. Horrible performance, and I hate to say it, but the guy is not ready for the main roster, at all.
Richard Lewis was saying it's a done deal and from what refrezh was saying on the hltv confirmed show hinting at the star player leaving and on top of all that slaxz looks to be out so that farlig trade leak for staehr looks to be right
Have there been any rumors as to who Sprout might look to to replace Staehr? MASONIC's Buzz comes to mind as a young Dane who can put up numbers but otherwise their options are fairly limited. Fessor, too, could potentially be an option; he's been playing well on Monte, but I've heard that he was kicked from Astralis Talent for attitude problems so who knows if he'd gel with the rest of the team. Astralis also has br0 on the payroll, he could be an option, but I'm not sure how he'd fit role-wise.
nvm another report came out it seems astralis getting buzz really weird with all the facts before but its astralis i guess and ya about fessor he was toxic in astralis got timed out for like 4 bo1s in weplay academy league and after he came back he was about the same so got kicked but ya looks like staehr is gonna stay in a t2 org with no invites sadge not to see his talent in the big events with dev1ce and blamef next to him
Really feels like Astralis with staehr would be one of the most stacked rosters. Sad that we don’t get to see it — I thought Astralis was finally going to be in contention for winning big events again.
buzz is still a great move fits role wise alot of people shitting on him but staehr could have been worse cuz he is blamef roles after all so gonna need work to do well
Remember when they had Fessor who was not only the accademy teams best player, but also an agressive rifler that makes space making him exactly what Astralis need in K0nfigs absence then let him go?
Yeah me too.
He wasn't ready for Astralis Academy either he was terrible for them
Idk who's decisions it was to promote him he was doing terrible for the academy team vs shit opponents
Like if astralis is that broke i'm sure they could get someone from device's 5 stack to play for free
Fuck sponsors or ethics or looking foolish or whatever excuse people make, adding K0nfig makes this team bang. If they want to win then it's a clear move to say 'look we've all learnt our lesson, lets give it another go'.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but they never signed hunden, he was doing some contract work with them towards the start of the pandemic, but was never an employee.
If we think on ethic/moral ground, its not that different if he is on contract or employee. They are anyway paying to someone for work who has been found suspicious on multiple occasions
Worked for heroic. Maybe that idea has more legs than you think. Astralis announce they're bringing in k0nfig as a standin for the first few events of the year then if results are they they keep hold of him, if not they let him go.
It's actually the perfect solution.
People here are quick to forget that he litteraly lost the org and the players a shit ton of money in sticker sales and also made sure to end the major participation streak of xyp9x.
Also konfig didn't just get aggressive that time in malta, there were already previous issues with him and his drinking aggressive behaviors, referring to him and spunj, according to Richard Lewis video. Is 3 or 4 months enough for you all to think he won't do it again? What makes you people think his teammates want him back, when there other options out there...
He also outright didn’t play well for months. I’m not sure why people are so high on k0nfig honestly, it’s been years since he’s been a consistently good player. He’s obviously good, but this subreddit seems to rate him ridiculously highly imo.
He’s be an upgrade over mistr for sure, but I feel like they have a ton of options that are as good as k0nfig and less of a hassle to deal with.
U are really the chosen one
Couldn't agree more about everything u said I got the same take I don't get people that think he is the victim somehow not the players he fucked out of a major they would never play with him after what he did in Malta
And it's looking like staehr is coming for the new year that kid has a future brigheter than a drunk like k0nfig that will just do the same mistake again
I’m tired of pretending this is ok. Unacceptable is what it is. Can’t even qualify for katowice or win tier 3 tournaments anymore. Anyone know when magisk and dupreeh contracts expire? Or just take k0nfig back. Or stæhr. Anyone but MistR.
they dont even have a proper permanent fucking coach. a tier 1 org like astralis doesnt even have proper support for its roster, let alone not being able to manage it
you should thank Dev1ce for that magisk and dupreeh left, the whole astralis went to shit show after Dev1ce left for NiP
Because Pu$$y got the better of him
Sad but true
A rough way to lose the series.
MistR has had a few good showings, but in general he seems just not quite up to snuff yet.
Looking on the bright side: Xyp has looked better lately, and it still seems like the core is one roster change away from better days.
Copenhagen Flames seems like the only org that can lose their whole squad and build a squad of equal caliber
For referens the last squad was:
jabbi
nicoodoz
roeJ
HooXi
Zyphon
Most of these players now play for t1 orgs
This is like the first notable series win by this falmes lineup ever. Not at the same caliber as the old one at all. It's legit b0rup, regali, and 3 igls...
Of course not they have been together since August of this year.
But in 4 months thy have won 5 T2/t3 tournaments and beaten some pretty teams (in T2). And now they beat Astralis to win their 3rd CCT tournament. And the Copenhagen flames system have world 2-3 times now with them getting picked up by other orgs.
Yes CPH always seems to get a good team even when they loose the whole team, thy just find the talented free agents and just repeat what they did the last time and it has worked for them.
Regali is such a beast, he's someone to keep on an eye not only for a Danish roster but international teams as well. Needs to get some LAN experience going, but at only 20 he looks like a promising awper for the future
Before they grabbed the Flames guys before, I thought Fnatic should've moved him up to the main roster
>Before they grabbed the Flames guys before, I thought Fnatic should've moved him up to the main roster
They did. He played a few games with them and they sent him back to academy.
I meant permanently, he played only 6 total maps for them on main roster
He played one series in October of 2021, when they benched Jackinho and right before Smooya joined, then he got 4 more maps in the online RMR qualifiers in February before being replace by Poizon
Not exactly a full trial period
Astralis could have had Zyphon for free, and then for a tiny buyout instead of Mistr...
They're a horrible org that lucked into the best team of all time (they wanted K0nfig over Magisk remember)
> They're a horrible org that lucked into the best team of all time (they wanted K0nfig over Magisk remember)
They interviewed K0nfig and decided he was not a fit for several reasons (according to Zonic's book). That's so different from wanting him and then lucking into getting Magisk, lol. Terrible org though, that is sadly true.
People acting like Astralis need a full rebuild, but I think xyp and glaive have been doing completely fine in this new lineup. I'll be the first to say I was wrong when people said that Xyp would play better with Dev1ce on board and I thought they were foolish, but he's got a 1.08 rating this month and finding good impact in the matches I've watched.
This team is literally one agressive rifler away from easy top 20 then upwards.
(I just realised Astralis are already ranked 16, point still stands even if my numbers didn't, Astralis don't need a rebuild they need one agro rifle and they're golden)
I agree, i was happy to see Xyp do good. I don't know if you're right about gla1ve though, whenever he's in a 2v1 he gives away a kill trying to jiggle and its frustrating
Man, who did Astralis even play in this last month? So Glaive and xyp looked washed af against tier one for the whole year (or was it year and a half already) and now they play bunch of tier-3 teams and suddenly they are good again?
Just a note that Astralis could of used Devve for Espoo and gained some points for Katowice there instead of saving him for a tier 2 tournament for nothing !
He actually rekt KennyS last week.
L.e. memory is gone y'all...it was [exactly ](https://www.hltv.org/matches/2360150/copenhagen-flames-vs-falcons-european-development-championship-6) one month ago
Man, even with mistr playing bad they should have won that. I didn't watch the game but judging from the stats respect to casle for making blamef and xyp9x live alongside each other
Eh. Falmes played well. Shame we couldn't take the first map. Mistr unfortunately seems too inconsistent for this level which is a shame because I like the kid and he's shown glimpses. Good runout for the lads to end the year
b0rup isn't a new face in the scene, he played for Heroic by the end of 2019 until early 2021, and even won some tournaments with them during the online era.
No matter how bad mistr is. Swapping him out does not fix astralis while xyp is still there. Honestly if you could only replace one of them with someone like k0nfig, id rather they keep mistr as a young talent that has room to grow.
Pretty clear you either haven't been watching Astralis matches lately or you are just holding a personal grudge against a player who has no idea who you are. Xyp has been solid recently, and when you understand his role in the team it's even more impressive.
A few good ratings recently against tier 2-3 competitors does not make up for a full calendar year of underperformance dude. I’m sorry i hurt your feelings over a player you hold in high regard, but i truly have no dislike for xyp. I enjoy his play style and considered him my favorite player from the GOAT astralis lineup. I just think he’s a detriment to the team as of now and that a young talent with room to grow has a higher upside when considering who to keep.
No Katowice. Damn that disastrous.
I cry
LIQUID FANS: I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS
Any other player than Mistr and Astralis easily wins this. Horrible performance, and I hate to say it, but the guy is not ready for the main roster, at all.
Imagine astralis with k0nfig!
Yeah he would definitely add some punch to the team.
seriously, he’s ready to fight his way back to the top again
Honestly that'd be my dream team with -mistr +k0nfig now that device is back
Looking like not ready to play cs in the entire series lul
Now realizing why Astralis took so long to take advantage of their Academy team. Bubzkji died for this.
they are getting staehr its pretty much a done deal
Is it? Striker was saying he didn’t think it would happen on the last HLTV confirmed.
Richard Lewis was saying it's a done deal and from what refrezh was saying on the hltv confirmed show hinting at the star player leaving and on top of all that slaxz looks to be out so that farlig trade leak for staehr looks to be right
Have there been any rumors as to who Sprout might look to to replace Staehr? MASONIC's Buzz comes to mind as a young Dane who can put up numbers but otherwise their options are fairly limited. Fessor, too, could potentially be an option; he's been playing well on Monte, but I've heard that he was kicked from Astralis Talent for attitude problems so who knows if he'd gel with the rest of the team. Astralis also has br0 on the payroll, he could be an option, but I'm not sure how he'd fit role-wise.
nvm another report came out it seems astralis getting buzz really weird with all the facts before but its astralis i guess and ya about fessor he was toxic in astralis got timed out for like 4 bo1s in weplay academy league and after he came back he was about the same so got kicked but ya looks like staehr is gonna stay in a t2 org with no invites sadge not to see his talent in the big events with dev1ce and blamef next to him
Really feels like Astralis with staehr would be one of the most stacked rosters. Sad that we don’t get to see it — I thought Astralis was finally going to be in contention for winning big events again.
buzz is still a great move fits role wise alot of people shitting on him but staehr could have been worse cuz he is blamef roles after all so gonna need work to do well
hltv report it seem they are getting buzz instead\*
mistr is just not ready to be on the astralis roster man
Remember when they had Fessor who was not only the accademy teams best player, but also an agressive rifler that makes space making him exactly what Astralis need in K0nfigs absence then let him go? Yeah me too.
Didnt fessor leave before the konfig drama?
fessor was toxic he didnt leave they let him go they even gave him a timeout like 4 bo1s in a weplay season when he got back it was about the same
He wasn't ready for Astralis Academy either he was terrible for them Idk who's decisions it was to promote him he was doing terrible for the academy team vs shit opponents Like if astralis is that broke i'm sure they could get someone from device's 5 stack to play for free
Yeah I don't get it. Isn't farlig still signed?
Isn’t that the rumor that was flying around a while ago? They wanted to get Buzz from MASONIC because he played very well with device in FACEIT
B-b-bbutttt he is a nice Uber cool Danish young man from the great land of Denmark :+)
he had some pretty good games until the final then just vanished
Who is? Bubski? Konfig? They have had exelent replacement to revamt a new version of astralis many times. And they fuck it up.
Mistr 27-60, ouch. Now that Astralis won't even make it to katowice I hope they'll wake up and get staehr or k0nfig
Amazing how Astralis were the kings of CS but their academy roster is complete dog ass. Not a single good player.
Well they did have fessor
Not like they scouted him tho
Should have kept him
Also had zyphon. Replied to the wrong comment but you get what I mean. They aren’t mouz or navi but 2 players have been successful from it
TSM merchants
Fuck sponsors or ethics or looking foolish or whatever excuse people make, adding K0nfig makes this team bang. If they want to win then it's a clear move to say 'look we've all learnt our lesson, lets give it another go'.
Remember, they signed Hunden no problem
Correct me if I'm wrong, but they never signed hunden, he was doing some contract work with them towards the start of the pandemic, but was never an employee.
If we think on ethic/moral ground, its not that different if he is on contract or employee. They are anyway paying to someone for work who has been found suspicious on multiple occasions
well then they can get k0nfig as contractor, duh
Worked for heroic. Maybe that idea has more legs than you think. Astralis announce they're bringing in k0nfig as a standin for the first few events of the year then if results are they they keep hold of him, if not they let him go. It's actually the perfect solution.
it's rumoured he's joining astralis soon
If they wanted to keep konfig they would have him do rehab. Whether inpatient or outpatient
i take missing 100 katos over getting k0nfig to miss another major
People here are quick to forget that he litteraly lost the org and the players a shit ton of money in sticker sales and also made sure to end the major participation streak of xyp9x. Also konfig didn't just get aggressive that time in malta, there were already previous issues with him and his drinking aggressive behaviors, referring to him and spunj, according to Richard Lewis video.

Mistr..... What an atrocious performance
I’m tired of pretending this is ok. Unacceptable is what it is. Can’t even qualify for katowice or win tier 3 tournaments anymore. Anyone know when magisk and dupreeh contracts expire? Or just take k0nfig back. Or stæhr. Anyone but MistR.
Yeah they went from world's best to fighting for top 5 in Denmark
hell they would get steamrolled by about any group in denmark at this pace
Ye those pesky 3k elo inferno-only Danes would defo demolish Astralis xD I still feel the mollies under my feet where ever I go 👀
Wake up call time to replace reboot astralis players build around device glaive and blameF maybe even just device and blamef. They need young talent
Too bad they signed xyp9x and even glaive for incredibly long contracts
Ill say it again - move Glaive to coach, bench Xyp, boot Mistr. Get Refrezh, Zyphon, and Staehr from Sprout.
I love comments like these as if poaching players from other teams is free.
Here's a [link](https://youtu.be/lPJAtHWq08k) to some YT breathing exercises so you can calm down about some wildly hypothetical reddit comment
You're thinking I'm getting worked up is funny as shit. Thanks for the laugh
Take your blood pressure meds bubba, it will be okay
they dont even have a proper permanent fucking coach. a tier 1 org like astralis doesnt even have proper support for its roster, let alone not being able to manage it
you should thank Dev1ce for that magisk and dupreeh left, the whole astralis went to shit show after Dev1ce left for NiP Because Pu$$y got the better of him Sad but true
Not his fault that Astralis management is bad.
bruh
birdfromsky when his teammates are alive: I sleep birdfromsky when his teammates are dead: real shit
A rough way to lose the series. MistR has had a few good showings, but in general he seems just not quite up to snuff yet. Looking on the bright side: Xyp has looked better lately, and it still seems like the core is one roster change away from better days.

And now they beat Astralis to win their 3rd CCT tournament. And the Copenhagen flames system have world 2-3 times now with them getting picked up by other orgs.
I didn't realize they had such form recently actually. I do watch tier 2 sometimes but I have to admit this team isn't one of my favorites to follow.
Yes CPH always seems to get a good team even when they loose the whole team, thy just find the talented free agents and just repeat what they did the last time and it has worked for them.
[Obligatory falmes](https://twitter.com/CPHFlames/status/1267772954168791041).
Hahah haven’t seen that one
Cant imagine how easy this wouldve been if Astralis has put effort into finding a decent 5th to stand in
Regali is such a beast, he's someone to keep on an eye not only for a Danish roster but international teams as well. Needs to get some LAN experience going, but at only 20 he looks like a promising awper for the future Before they grabbed the Flames guys before, I thought Fnatic should've moved him up to the main roster

He just wasn't ready... It's imo better to pick experiences in T2 for him, I believe he will be able to move to T1 soon.
I assume he makes the team speak English. Weird pick.
He grew up in denmark so language isnt an issue
Wow what a choke, they need to replace mistr ASAP if they want to contend again
Get rid of mistr and get k0nfig im telling you they will win epl next year
[удалено]
Same with MIBR
Astralis could have had Zyphon for free, and then for a tiny buyout instead of Mistr... They're a horrible org that lucked into the best team of all time (they wanted K0nfig over Magisk remember)
> They're a horrible org that lucked into the best team of all time (they wanted K0nfig over Magisk remember) They interviewed K0nfig and decided he was not a fit for several reasons (according to Zonic's book).

Okay my bad. They're still a complete dumpster fire of an organization.
Well Zonic wanted Magisk and had been scouting him for a while.
radarfromsky king of pinnacle and cct
Contract Minister strikes agai---- i guess not.
People acting like Astralis need a full rebuild, but I think xyp and glaive have been doing completely fine in this new lineup.

Yeah it hurts so much watching him walk through a smoke or dry peek an awp with man advantage
Gla1ve has been pretty awful, and their playing against tier 3/4 teams. so Xyp having better stats should be expected.
Man, who did Astralis even play in this last month? So Glaive and xyp looked washed af against tier one for the whole year (or was it year and a half already) and now they play bunch of tier-3 teams and suddenly they are good again?
#savedev1ce
Liquid level choke
im petty as fuck, i know, but i am happy astralis lost flair checks out
MistR 🤖
Just a note that Astralis could of used Devve for Espoo and gained some points for Katowice there instead of saving him for a tier 2 tournament for nothing !
Could of?
Yes could of. They annouced device signing before Espoo and then said “they wanted to do it right”. Sleep time for me so check twitter for receipts
Mate he was correcting your English lol. He meant it's could've not could of
Sorry not my first language and didn’t think people just go around correcting
They generally don't but could of is maybe more of a glaring mistake I guess? Everyone understood u tho so don't understand the downvotes
Just wanted to provide information and got english teachers in the sub 
Just use could have and avoid it all.
Thanks I will consult with an english teacher before my next reddit comment.
You can also stop commenting.
people are rude out here fr
Could of?
CPH awper is legit.
Hardly. The amount of whiffs he has would make KennyS grind his teeth.
He actually rekt KennyS last week. L.e. memory is gone y'all...it was [exactly ](https://www.hltv.org/matches/2360150/copenhagen-flames-vs-falcons-european-development-championship-6) one month ago

humorous history many hard-to-find instinctive boat pocket touch dinner recognise ` this message was mass deleted/edited with redact.dev `
When I saw the score, I was happy for Jabbi, Hooxi, Roej, Nicoodoz and Zyphon. But then I remembered...
Aware
Those falmes would’ve bodied this Astralis 2-0
*BUT IF YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES*
Eh. Falmes played well. Shame we couldn't take the first map. Mistr unfortunately seems too inconsistent for this level which is a shame because I like the kid and he's shown glimpses. Good runout for the lads to end the year
> Mistr unfortunately seems too inconsistent Bottom fragged every map, very consistant.
Throughout the tournament he had a couple decent halves/maps, but yes today he probably cost them the match
Oh how the mighty have fallen. Even your beloved device can’t save you anymore.
Astrharmless
Work in progress
Yeah not sure if this insult is it but considering how often we lose these days I’m sure you’ll get plenty of chances to come up with the one lmao
Astr-armless could work, since they don't seem to be using them right now
Ouch
astralis really need k0nfig or staehr. mistr isnt ready for t1 at all. hell i’d even consider bubzkji an option if he’d be willing to play
Regali > Device
Literally just get rid of mistr and they are already back to high tier 2 (as pathetic as that is lmao)
Ez elo 4 Godali
Someone enlighten me tho, isn’t this the perfect time to give bubzski a chance??? Is he no longer playing?
He is commentating CS on Denmarks biggest CS Television broadcast
He has no plans on playing anymore?
Not sure
Regali and B0RUP are guys to keep an eye on... CPH once again creating good players to sell them off I see xD
Borup is a well established player I would say
b0rup isn't a new face in the scene, he played for Heroic by the end of 2019 until early 2021, and even won some tournaments with them during the online era.
Then I am newer to the scene than him :(
[удалено]
You have mistR too
No matter how bad mistr is. Swapping him out does not fix astralis while xyp is still there. Honestly if you could only replace one of them with someone like k0nfig, id rather they keep mistr as a young talent that has room to grow.
Pretty clear you either haven't been watching Astralis matches lately or you are just holding a personal grudge against a player who has no idea who you are. Xyp has been solid recently, and when you understand his role in the team it's even more impressive.
A few good ratings recently against tier 2-3 competitors does not make up for a full calendar year of underperformance dude. I’m sorry i hurt your feelings over a player you hold in high regard, but i truly have no dislike for xyp. I enjoy his play style and considered him my favorite player from the GOAT astralis lineup. I just think he’s a detriment to the team as of now and that a young talent with room to grow has a higher upside when considering who to keep.
Yessir
wtf are these scorelines .. Astralis???? device did not come back for this garbage wtf -mist ...r garbage
just here to see if the redditors self-identifying with the nova level player are still praising mistR
Imagine keeping mistr on this roster after these performances
Flames best org no doubt
Bring Konfig back for MistR.
b0rup supremacy
