Astralis introduced the updated League of Legends roster
The Danish eSports organization Astralis has unveiled an updated roster for the League of Legends discipline. In addition to signing a top liner and a jungler, the club took care of other roles by introducing an analyst and a team manager. In addition, Astralis' boatliner Kobbe extended his contract with the organization for one season.
With the addition of 113 and Finn, we feel we have a very interesting mix of pure craftsmanship, experience and a huge amount of talent. We strongly believe that both of these players will be central to our continued progress after the last split despite not qualifying for the playoffs. We are not that far from qualifying and our clear goal is to get very far in the coming season.
I feel that the change in the LEC format is a very interesting challenge and will probably give new excitement to the fans. We don't change our goals due to any format changes and we want to compete for a place in the playoffs.
Everyone on the team is eager to show up and I strongly believe that all the work we've done, including moving the team to Berlin, will pay off this season. Therefore, I am very pleased that the team will now train at the base in Berlin, which will reduce the number of transfers every week and allow us to focus even more on training. Our new team and staff have already begun preparations for the 2023 Spring Split and will debut in January when the season kicks off.
