Two Astralis CS:GO stars, blameF and dev1ce, were some of the best players at CCT North Europe Series two despite losing to HEET in the quarterfinals of the $50,000 online event, according to HLTV leaderboards.

BlameF was CCT North Europe Series two’s highest-rated player. The 25-year-old averaged a 1.45 rating after two maps played against Tricked and two maps played against HEET during the event, according to HLTV. BlameF also was the player who did the most damage per round (100.2), had the highest damage difference per round (+28.8), most opening kills (0.23), most success in opening duels (76.9 percent), and the highest impact rating (1.67), according to HLTV leaderboards for CCT North Europe Series two.

Dev1ce, on the other hand, had a perfect return to pro play following one year on the sidelines. The star sniper was the second highest-rated player of CCT North Europe Series two, having averaged a 1.43 rating after four maps, according to HLTV. He also was the player with the most kills per round (0.95).

Unfortunately for blameF and dev1ce, Astralis didn’t function well as a whole during CCT North Europe Series two. The Danes let the maps against HEET slip from their hands and the rest of the players didn’t play well in that series. Xyp9x finished with a 0.94 rating, gla1ve posted a 0.88 rating and a -19 K/D difference, and the youngster Mikkel “MistR” Thomsen produced a 0.87 rating, according to HLTV.

Astralis will play one more online tournament before the player break. The organization will reveal the details of this event at a later date.
