The Danish player Victor “Staehr” Staehr has expressed his enthusiasm for taking on new star roles within his team, underlining how it brings both challenges and opportunities in his performance. With high expectations accompanying this transition, he highlighted the need to excel now.

“Sometimes anchors get the benefit of the doubt,” Staehr remarked, comparing his previous role with his current responsibilities.

An ongoing ascent in the rankings has accompanied his rise, particularly as Astralis recently climbed from outside the top 10 to the sixth position following impressive performances in recent competitions like PGL Astana and FISSURE Playground 1.

Staehr’s ambitions reflect the evolving goals of Astralis, transitioning from merely qualifying for Major tournaments to performing commendably once there. As he notes, “It’s no longer just about getting to the Major anymore; it’s about succeeding while we’re there.”
