Dust2 exclusively reported on Friday that Danish Counter Strike 2 (CS2) esports club Astralis is considering appointing former FaZe coach NEO as their head coach.
According to the report, following the team's poor performance and elimination from Stage 2 of the Intel Extreme Masters (IEM) Cologne Major, Astralis is leaning towards appointing a foreign coach to lead the team.
The team's former coach, ruggah, was also dismissed by Astralis due to the aforementioned tournament failures.
FaZe parted ways with NEO in March due to the team's drastically declining performance this year.
During his time as FaZe's coach, the 39-year-old Polish coach led the team to three Major finals and won championships at IEM Sydney 2023, the Counter-Strike Asia Championship (CAC) 2023, and IEM Chengdu 2024.
With NEO joining the team, Astralis' new roster is expected to be:
In-Game Leader: HooXi
AWP-er: phzy
Rifler: Staehr
Rifler: jabbi
Rifler: ryu
Head Coach: NEO
