Astralis coach on new team member: "He is undoubtedly one of the most exciting talents on the field"

Astralis coach, Peter casle Ardenskjold, spoke about the prospects of the team's newcomer, Alexander Altekz Givskov. According to the Danish coach, he is one of the best talents in the professional scene at the moment.

It was previously announced that Altekz replaced Andreas Xyp9x Højsleth in the club's main roster. Xyp9x, in turn, was transferred to the organization's academy roster. More information about this can be found in the article.

I have known Alex since my time on the talent team and understand what he brings. Playing with new teammates at a higher level is always different, but he has taken on the task with humility and a huge desire to show what he can do. He is undoubtedly one of the most exciting talents on the field right now, and we have already seen glimpses of that in training, so I am, of course looking forward to seeing him in action with the others.


There are several things to get used to on a new team, but he knows the system for the most part and can play freely and without much pressure. He is sharp in duels, which can also be seen in his stats, and if he can transfer some of that to the matches, we can look forward to seeing him on the server.
