k0nfig to miss Major qualifier following injury

Astralis Talent player Mikkel “⁠MistR⁠” Thomsen will step in for the Danish powerhouse at the upcoming Regional Major Ranking event.

Astralis have announced that Kristian “⁠k0nfig⁠” Wienecke has suffered a “complicated ankle fracture” and that he will require a lot of rest over the coming days and weeks.

It’s unclear for how long the 25-year-old will be out of action, but at the very least he will miss the IEM Road to Rio RMR A tournament taking place from October 4-9, the organization has revealed.
