trace will lead Astralis in ESL Pro League Season 15 and Major qualifiers
The Danish esports organization Astralis has announced changes to the coaching bridge of its CS:GO roster. As a result of the changes, trace will lead the team through the ESL Pro League Season 15 and Major qualifiers, while ave will take on the responsibilities of leading Astralis Talent.
The Astralis Counter-Strike team is in full preparation mode for the upcoming ESL Pro League Season 15 and Major.
In this regard, trace will act as the official coach of the first team with the support of ave. In turn, ave, who, due to a ban received in 2020, cannot participate in the majors, will work with the Astralis Talent team during this period.
trace knows the players, organization and culture and has already proven itself with impressive results in Astralis Talent. He will take on the role of head coach for the upcoming tournaments.
Recall that trace led the Astralis Talent team in January 2022. In two months, the 31-year-old specialist helped the team take third place in the WePlay Academy League Season 3.
ave has been coaching Astralis since last November. During this time, the 33-year-old Dane took third place with the team at BLAST Premier: Fall Finals 2021. However, the specialist cannot compete in majors and other tournaments organized by Valve, as he was caught using a coaching bug during the North and received a ban from ESIC for a period for six months. Even though ave has served his sentence, restrictions apply all the time.
The Danish team will start its journey within ESL Pro League Season 15 in almost four weeks. At the same time, the team is waiting for the debut of farlig, who joined Astralis at the end of last month.
The Astralis roster for the upcoming championships is as follows:
- Xyp9x.
- gla1ve.
- k0nfig.
- blameF.
- farlig.
- trace (trainer).
