The 25-year-old has already started practicing with the Astralis squad, but won’t be participating in the active roster of the team before late October.

His squadmates were sure to give him a warm welcome to the team. “Looking forward to going into tournaments with the clutch master,” Nicolai ‘dev1ce’ Reedtz said in a tweet.

So excited to see @Xyp9x back in practice again. Looking forward to go into tournaments with the clutch master again.

Xyp9x will miss the upcoming DreamHack Open Fall 2020 but was selected by coach Danny ‘zonic⁠’ Sørensen to be a part of the Astralis roster in the BLAST Premier Fall Series, which is set to begin from October 29th.

Welcome back my friend @Xyp9x ❤️

Due to valve rules about the RMR the first tournament with the clutchKING will be at blast in November 🙏

While the rest of the lineup for BLAST Premier Fall hasn’t been specified by Astralis as of yet, the much-anticipated return of Xyp9x to the squad after such a long break is certain to be met with excitement from fans of the Danish organization.
