Individual skill
Astralis CSGO roster is not compiled of individuals who enjoy playing CSGO. They are a professional organization that has been on top throughout the entire 2018. Astralis took this seriously, and they are not considered as gamers anymore, they are professional athletes.
Astralis CSGO roster has the best in-game leader on the scene. Lukas “gla1ve” Rossander has been rock solid for this team. He is a mastermind who is also a great rifler. These types of players are very rare. Mostly, in-game leaders are average at most when it comes to raw aim, but this is not the case with gla1ve.
Secondly, rifling trio of Andreas “Xyp9x” Højsleth, Peter “dupreeh” Rasmussen, and Emil “Magisk” Reif are also on a level above everyone else. Constant training and improvement is definitely a key for these guys and their success to win a large number of duels. Furthermore, both dupreeh and Magisk are known for their ability to multi frag, precision and recoil control. You probably know everything about Xp9xy. He is the best clutch player in CSGO. His ability to stay calm in a clutch situation is incredible, and most of the teams are not comfortable at all once he is on the clutch.
Last but not least, Nicolai “dev1ce” Reedtz is the second best player in the world. Furthermore, he is one of the best AWPers on the CSGO scene, and once he gets going, there is no stopping him. Nicolai will barely ever produce any highlights and flashy kills. He will rather hold his passive angle and reposition after every shot he takes. That is the main reason why he is so reliable and good.
Game plan
If you are looking for a team who is using utility to its full potential then look no more. Astralis is definitely the best CSGO roster when it comes to utility usage. Everything seems to be on point, and there are barely any mistakes. Furthermore, flashes, grenades, and molotovs are so perfectly timed that you will have a feeling that they are cheating.
Secondly, Astralis is a CSGO roster that is not basing their game plan on winning individual duels. They enjoy playing as a unit. Trading frags around the map, and getting an advantage that way. That is why a lot of other top teams are struggling against them. Their star players always want to be the best against Astralis, and that can hurt their team since those star players will do stupid mistakes. And be sure, Astralis capitalizes on every mistake you do.
Astralis also enjoys doing prepared executions on certain bombsites. To be honest, they are the best teams when it comes to executions. Their A take on Mirage says it all. If you do not believe us here at CSGO-tips, make sure you watch a VOD on YouTube.
