Ett uttalande från Astralis om saken lyder:
Yesterday the announcement of natu departing the team let us in a tough position. Of course our immediate top priority was the finding of a fifth player to complete the roster once again. Replacing someone as skilled and experienced player as natu was a hard task to take care of but after a while of thinking and discussing we managed to put one name on top of the others. The player we are talking about is Oskari 'ruuit' Aspe, a young talent, pretty much like the rest of us, filled with hunger to win and commitment to the team. He's also very skilled in-game leader and a smart tactician who made a name of himself in his former team Junk52 (Marvel) which is considered to be the second best team in Finland. We hope together with this lineup to finally live up to the expectations and through some serious training and practising in our own gaming cafe Level7 to finally achieve the top podiums internationally.Tipstack till adr.
