Astralis issued an official statement about the resignation of the director and one of the founders of the organization, Nikolaj Nyholm.
In the previous months, Astralis repeatedly found itself in the midst of CS2 scandals that seriously threatened the reputation of the most trophy-winning CS:GO organization and four-time Major champions, which most likely influenced the decision.
How much these changes will actually affect Astralis is anyone's guess, as the announcement states that Nyholm will remain with the organization as a member of the board of directors. He will be replaced as director by Jakoh Hansen, who performed the role of CFO (Chief Financial Officer).
Nyholm managed Astralis during several controversial transfers, including the transfer of two players from Heroic, Jakob "jabbi" Nygaard and Martin "stavn" Lund, which was remembered for the outcry from the rival Danish organization, which Heroic publicly informed the fans about on several occasions.
A few months later, Astralis found itself at the center of a scandal again, this time when, according to multiple sources, they falsely reported that benched Alexander "br0" Bro was sick, so that new team captain Casper "cadiaN" Moller would play as a replacement for Astralis at the BLAST Fall Final in 2024
Nyholm was also previously a founding member of RFRSH Entertainment, the group that founded BLAST and owned Astralis, before Astralis split due to potential conflicts of interest." dir="ltr">Astralis issued an official statement about the resignation of the director and one of the founders of the organization, Nikolaj Nyholm.
