Teams’ roster changes after the BLAST.tv Austin Major<\/strong><\/a> results keep coming. Now, Falcons <\/strong>have announced the signing of Maxim ‘Kyousuke’ <\/strong>Lukin from Spirit. <\/strong>The 17-year-old prepares to replace the recently benched Emil ‘Magisk’ <\/strong>Reif.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out our BLAST.tv Austin Major Recap<\/strong><\/a> to see how it was on this year's biggest tournament.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
‘Kyousuke’ <\/strong>joins Falcons <\/strong>after establishing himself as one of the top young talents in the industry, gaining recognition with Spirit Academy <\/strong>over the past year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The young rifler achieved an impressive 1.29 rating<\/strong> while playing for Spirit Academy <\/strong>in the higher tiers of tier two, contributing to the youth team’s ascent to 32nd in HLTV’s rankings<\/a> and 28th in the VRS<\/strong><\/a>. During this time, he also secured several significant victories in CCT <\/strong>tournaments and celebrated LAN wins at BetBoom LanDaLan 1<\/strong> and 2<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the news of Kyousuke’s <\/strong>rumored transfer<\/a> initially surfaced a few months ago, it caught the community off guard, as the young talent appeared poised to join Spirit’s <\/strong>main lineup at some point. Given the overlapping roles with Danil’ donk’ <\/strong>Kryshkovets, along with the young player’s own expressed goal of moving up to tier-one “by the end of the year,” he now instead finds himself with Falcons<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
