Astralis Adds Four New Players to LEC Roster for 2021 Season
Astralis, the renowned esports organization, has recently announced its new roster for the upcoming 2021 League of Legends European Championship (LEC) season. The team has signed four talented players from different European Regional League teams, according to reports from esports reporter Jacob Wolf.
One of the new additions to Astralis is WhiteKnight, a seasoned top laner who previously played in the LEC with Unicorns of Love. After his departure from the LEC in 2018, WhiteKnight joined BIG and participated in multiple European tournaments, including the European Masters.
Zanzarah is also joining Astralis as the team’s jungler. Known for his time with Origen in 2019, when he substituted for Kold during the LEC Regional Gauntlet, Zanzarah brings valuable experience to the team. In 2020, Zanzarah joined AGO Rogue and achieved success by winning the Ultraliga championship and the European Masters Summer championship.
Jeskla and Promisq, who come from the same team, have now joined Astralis as well. Jeskla played with Excel Esports in 2019, while Promisq is a veteran player who has competed for various teams, including Schalke 04, H2K Gaming, and as a substitute for G2 Esports. Together, they helped mousesports secure the Prime League Pro Division Summer championship this year, although they fell short against AGO Rogue in the semifinals of the 2020 Summer European Masters.
These four talented players will be teaming up with Nukeduck in an effort to improve Astralis’s performance in the upcoming season. In the previous season, the team, known as Origen, finished in last place with a disappointing 6-12 record.
