CS:GO expert questions Astralis’ removal of k0nfig: It just feels a little too convenient for me

Mauisnake believes a potential signing of device could have played a part in the decision to part ways with k0nfig.

Kristian “k0nfig” Wienecke and his alleged fist fight in Malta have been the talk of the town in CS:GO for weeks now. The story escalated this week when Astralis on Monday announced the departure of the powerful rifler owing to “personal circumstances”.

However, CS:GO expert and analyst, Alex "Mauisnake" Ellenberg doesn’t buy Astralis’ decision and grounding, as he sows doubts about their intentions with the k0nfig removal being “a little too convenient”, referring to the heavy rumours of Nicolai “device” Reedtz returning back to the Danish squad.

It was in the latest episode of Snake & Banter with Duncan “Thorin” Shields, where Mauisnake touched upon the matter.

- The first thing I took away from this whole [k0nfig] instantly removal, was that it seems like Astralis want to clear the books for a device move. For them to hold k0nfig to this standard now where – without saying any names or anything like that – people, talents, and players have gone into stuff like that. Maybe not to the extent where they broke their legs. There have been police called on different people this year, but it just doesn’t get out. None of those people is out of their job, Mauisnake said and continued:

- Certainly, Astralis are: “Yep, that’s where we draw the line, and btw we’re going to get device”. That seems like the inevitability of what just happened here.

- (...) It just feels a little too convenient for me from the side of Astralis that they are just ready to go and remove somebody and probably a guy that had a pretty decent salary so that this device one isn’t so much of a blow to them.
