This weekend, the women's team, led by Aurora "aurora" Lyngdal, heads to Hamburg to play their second CS2 LAN event at the Female Bay Cup 2023. In their first Bo3 single elimination match, on November 4th, the team will go head to head with the Danish squad from AaB esports.
The 2023 Female Bay Cup will be the official debut for the newly recruited 16-year-old, Isabella "Ismo" Ferslev. In Saturday's LAN match against AaB Sport, she will don the Astralis jersey for the first time as an official member of the women's team.
Ismo joined the team in mid-October and is looking forward to getting started.
We spoke to the IGL aurora about the team's newest player addition and their upcoming tournament in Hamburg.
- We have been focusing on values and objectives to determine what's important to us and create a team identity. We see this tournament as an opportunity to learn, both on the server and outside. We're here to improve as a team, so we'll take it one game at a time and fight as hard as we can! says aurora.
- This is our first tournament with Ismo, and it will be super cool. She is a skilled player and super motivated, which shines through. She is so easy to work with and has an enormous talent! auroa states.
