Astralis terminates k0nfig's CS:GO contract after Malta altercation
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive pro Kristian 'k0nfig' Wienecke has mutually agreed with Astralis to have his contract terminated.
Despite an Astralis statement claiming he will no longer be part of the team due to "issues he does not want to discuss publicly", k0nfig has released his own statement confirming reports that he had broken his leg in an altercation with a nightclub promoter. He also says that he has been "in a really deep dark place" since the incident.
On September 20, Astralis revealed that k0nfig would miss upcoming competitions due to a "complicated ankle fracture" he suffered while in Malta playing in the ESL Pro League. A few days later, Jaxon reported that the player had got into a "fist fight", which at the time k0nfig described as "mostly BS". On October 1, Jaxon further doubled down on this by publishing an eyewitness report stating that k0nfig had got into a brawl with a nightclub promoter.
