    Astralis, the renowned esports organization, has made an announcement regarding a change in leadership. Nikolaj Nyholm, one of the co-founders, has decided to step down from his position as CEO. However, he will continue to serve as a board member. In the interim, Jakob Hansen, who previously held the position of CFO, will assume the role of CEO.

    The announcement comes following a series of controversies that have surrounded the Danish team over the past year. Their conduct during the transfers of Jakob ‘jabbi’ Nygaard and Martin ‘stavn’ Lund from HEROIC late in 2023 raised questions, and more recently, the team faced heavy criticism for their decision to use Casper ‘cadiaN’ Møller as an emergency substitute for the BLAST Fall Final.

This company initially held ownership of and managed the BLAST Pro Circuit (which later evolved into BLAST Premier) and the renowned team Astralis. Additionally, RFRSH Entertainment had connections to the teams HEROIC and GODSENT.
