Maksim ‘kyousuke<\/strong>‘ Lukin will miss the next match between Team Falcons <\/strong>and NRG <\/strong>at BLAST Open Rotterdam 2026<\/a><\/strong> because of ongoing visa problems. This continues a frustrating pattern for the young rifler in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visa Problems Sideline Falcons\u2019 Rising Star<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Falcons <\/strong>have confirmed that Kyousuke <\/strong>can\u2019t attend because his visa issues remain unresolved. He has already missed other LAN events this season for the same reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At just 18, the Russian player has been one of the top breakout stars in Counter-Strike 2<\/strong>. His absence is a big blow for the Falcons<\/strong>, who have been gaining momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stand-in NucleonZ Steps in Again<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With kyousuke <\/strong>out, the Falcons <\/strong>will likely turn to academy player Matej ‘NucleonZ<\/strong>‘ Trajkoski, who has stepped in before in similar situations<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this year, NucleonZ <\/strong>filled in at the BLAST Bounty Finals<\/a><\/strong>. Despite having little experience at the top level, he helped the Falcons <\/strong>stay competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The young Macedonian showed promise, but filling in for a high-impact player like kyousuke <\/strong>is still a tough task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impact On Falcons vs NRG<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The match against NRG <\/strong>is now harder to predict. Falcons <\/strong>will be without one of their top-rated players, who is known for his strong aim and steady play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kyousuke <\/strong>was key in helping the Falcons <\/strong>qualify for recent events, putting up strong performances before the LAN stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without kyousuke<\/strong>, the Falcons<\/strong> may have to change up their roles and depend more on stars like Nikola ‘NiKo<\/strong>‘ Kova\u010d and Ilya ‘m0NESY<\/strong>‘ Osipov to lead the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
