During a difficult period as Danish player Nicolai “device” Reedtz serves as Astralis captain, he faced a series of bad matches and expressed his frustration on social media. His former teammate, Finn “karrigan” Andersen, responded and offered words of encouragement. Interestingly enough, karrigan, who leads FaZe, knows what it's like to be a captain on the CS scene and deal with adversity.
Captain's difficulties
Device, who has been acting as the team's sniper and captain, candidly shared his thoughts on social network X after a few disappointing matches, “Really disappointed with myself these last 2 games, not only as the awp but also IGLing. Doing my best to bounce back I assure you” These words emphasize the pressure that device is feeling after taking on a leadership role at Astralis.
I know everything you are going through, it’s never easy when you go through these games where nothing works. My point is every time you come out on the other side of these feelings you became a better leader. Head high 🙏

Karrigan, long known as an accomplished captain, immediately responded to the device message, “My point is every time you come out on the other side of these feelings you became a better leader. Head high”
Important matches ahead
Astralis will face Rooster in the Last Chance stage of the ESL Pro League on Friday. The team must win three matches to advance further in the tournament. Device, despite recent struggles, will continue to lead his team forward as IGL. This match will be a test not only for Astralis, but also for Device, who is eager to prove his resilience and leadership skills.
