K0nfig to stand in for stavn at BLAST World Final 2022

The seasoned player will be heading to Abu Dhabi for a short stint.

Heroic has confirmed that Kristian “k0nfig” Wienecke will be replacing Martin “stavn” Lund at the upcoming BLAST World Final 2022 in Abu Dhabi. This comes after he was booted out from the Astralis roster due to an incident in Malta during the ESL Pro League Season 16. That incident left him with an ankle fracture.

Heroic is currently on a wave of excellence after recently finishing as runners-up at the IEM Major Rio and winning the BLAST Premier Fall Final. They are in a position to end the year as the no.1 team in the world ranking if they win the World Final.

In the statement, Heroic said:

“Kristian “k0nfig” Wienecke will be replacing Martin “stavn” Lund for the BLAST World Final 2022. The decision has been made a while ago to give Martin some rest after a long year and a 2023 season where we as a team wish to start our preparation for the year early.

We believe Kristian is the best possible replacement when exploring our options. Despite not having stavn with us for the World Final, we hope to continue our good form and Kristian is a great player that is hungry to show the world he has a place in the absolute top of CS:GO.”

The BLAST Premier World Final will take place in Abu Dhabi from December 14 to 18, with eight teams in attendance and a $1 million prize pool. It will be the first tournament to feature the community-created map Anubis.
