Astralis sign cadiaN – “Reunion with jabbi and stavn is exciting”
As a long-time follower and admirer of the Counter-Strike scene, especially the Danish powerhouses like Astralis and Heroic, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and trepidation as I witness the latest shakeup in the Astralis roster. The signing of Casper ‘cadiaN’ Møller is undeniably a bold move, one that promises to bring back the glory days for this legendary team.
Can Astralis’ latest attempt at a Danish Superteam work out?
Surprisingly, Astralis has officially brought on board Casper ‘cadiaN’ Møller, who will now serve as both a rifleman and the In-Game Leader. This decision brings cadiaN back together with his former teammates Martin ‘stavn’ Lund and Jakob ‘jabbi’ Nygaard from Heroic.
The 29-year-old is transferring from Team Liquid and will fill the spot previously held by Alexander ‘br0’ Bro on the team. Since Astralis has seen a decline after their initial success with Nicolai ‘dev1ce’ Reedtz as an In-Game Leader, it’s logical that they would bring in a seasoned IGL. However, cadiaN will face significant challenges at Astralis, as roles within the team have yet to be defined.
As a devoted admirer, I can attest that cadiaN embodies the spirit of a champion – his energy and fervor are palpable in every endeavor. I have no doubt that he’ll not only contribute significantly to the evolution of our game but also emerge as a beacon, both on the server and off it.

How will cadiaN fare as a rifler at Astralis?
Instead of being an AWPer like in his past teams, cadiaN will not assume that role with Astralis. Given the presence of the renowned sniper, device, it’s logical that he would be taking over as an In-Game Leader. However, since he has been excelling more as an IGL, there might be some uncertainty about how well he can handle rifling duties. Over the past 3 months, br0 has maintained a relatively low rating of 0.95, which cadiaN will likely aim to enhance.
cadiaN: “I share Astralis’ vision—always striving to be the best.”
In a recent team announcement, cadiaN clarifies misconceptions about his past conflicts with Astralis: “While some fans might perceive I’ve had intense rivalries solely with Astralis, in reality, I’ve encountered comparable fierce competitions with other teams and players as well.” However, the term ‘beef’ doesn’t fully encapsulate the long-standing rivalry between cadiaN and Astralis over the years.
Starting from 2020, these two teams have been locked in several heated confrontations. Back in 2020, it was the debate about Heroic coach Nicolai “HUNDEN” Petersen’s application of the coach bug against Astralis. The following year, in a domestic game held in Copenhagen, they had a falling out. Prior to this match, cadiaN made a statement, “The victor will have the right to boast for months, perhaps even years,” but unfortunately, the bragging rights were claimed by Astralis.
My unyielding spirit of triumph has consistently spurred me to surpass limits, and these competitive rivalries have served only to strengthen me as time goes by. As a captain in Counter-Strike, the community is well aware of the contributions I make – tactically, where I’ve played a key role in redefining the game, and emotionally, from igniting team spirit during pep talks to enthusiastically applauding my teammates’ impressive plays.

Lately, Astralis brought on board Kasper Straube, who was previously Heroic’s performance director. This move seems to have negatively impacted Heroic’s team, culminating in the high-profile separation of cadiaN and the pair known as “stabbi.” Due to various off-server complications and a divergence in strategies, Heroic decided to release cadiaN from the team. However, they swiftly entered talks with Astralis for the transfer of stavn and jabbi.
It appeared doubtful to many spectators that we could reunite our essential elements, but it seems the players are convinced otherwise. In simpler terms, they’ve tackled the difficulties we faced earlier and today, we stand united. After a year of contemplation, we still crave victory and maintain the identical strategic perspective that fueled our triumphs in the past. This is according to cadiaN’s statement.
Can Astralis with cadiaN finally find success?
The addition of cadiaN to Astralis may appear a strategic decision initially, but it presents several hurdles. Primarily, it’s essential to reconcile the divided teams amicably. Additionally, it’s crucial for cadiaN to establish a stable environment for device without compromising his own gameplay. If he manages these tasks effectively, this could be an opportunity for him to excel at the pinnacle of Danish CS:GO.
