Astralis player Nicolai ‘dev1ce‘ Reedtz, in an interview published on the Astralis official website, expressed the team’s need for more time to build a solid foundation in preparation for the arrival of CS2.
device stated, “In the next six months, our focus should be on establishing the team’s core foundation to adequately prepare for the upcoming release of CS2. A crucial aspect of this process is ensuring that blameF has a relatively comfortable command environment to enable the team to perform at their best. Instead of solely pursuing accolades, we should redirect our attention to the team’s growth and development.”
“It is essential to prioritize our own development because, as an Astralis player, failing to contribute to the team’s victory in every match can easily disappoint our loyal fans. Rather than fixating on short-term outcomes, we should concentrate on long-term progress, both as individuals and as a cohesive unit. Chasing fleeting moments of success is short-sighted. Astralis’ future focus will revolve around establishing a solid foundation and fostering a team culture driven by long-term objectives.”
In last night’s BLAST Fall Group Stage match, Astralis suffered a 1-2 defeat against BIG, relegating them to the lower bracket.
