Astralis has announced its lineup for the upcoming PGL Major. Gla1ve, who recently became a father for the first time, made the roster, while Bubzkji will be forced to sit this one out.
The news comes just days away from the start of PGL Stockholm. Gla1ve stepped down from the lineup in September as he focused on the birth of his child. He was replaced by xyp9x.
Bubzkji misses out on his first-ever Major, after helping the team secure a legends spot at IEM Fall last week.
“It is never easy to take a player out of the starting line-up and with Bubzkji, it can seem a bit unfair as, no matter the circumstances, he has been a true professional and always delivered his best on and off the server,” Astralis’ Director of Sports, Kasper Hvidt, said on the decission.
