The Danish organization Copenhagen Flames announced that it would be undergoing big changes, with two players departing and two replacements coming into the active lineup.

Just after reaching their peak ranking as a team, currently sitting at #30, Copenhagen Flames will undergo two player changes. The biggest departure is that of Asger "⁠AcilioN⁠" Larsen, the team's in-game leader who, according to DBLTAP, is in talks with c0ntact to replace Nestor "⁠LETN1⁠" Tanić for at least Season 1 of FLASHPOINT.

Leaving the team alongside him is Thomas "⁠TMB⁠" Bundsbæk, who has "become a bit of a victim of the circumstances" as the team "needed more experience and initiative on the server" according to the organization.

Despite "emphasis on being open", Copenhagen Flames were not able to disclose the reasons of AcilioN's departure:

"We will be moving Asger “AcilioN” Larsen out of the starting lineup from today. At this point in time, we cannot disclose the reasons for the this decision. We put an emphasis on being open and honest with our fans and followers, so we are working hard on being able to disclose the reasons as soon as possible.

"For now we can only comment on the effects this move will have on our roster. Asger has been our captain on and off the server, constantly pushing the team to strive for more. As our in-game leader he also had a huge role to play in our in-game communications, and it’s definitely a big task for the rest of the team to fill his shoes, however I do expect our team to be able to lift that task together." - Daniel Vorborg, Copenhagen Flames Head of Esports

Rejoining the team is Rasmus "⁠HooXi⁠" Nielsen, who will take the reins of the squad again after leading it in 2018. Alongside him, Copenhagen Flames have signed former OpTic and Fragsters player Ismail "⁠refrezh⁠" Ali, who started his career in Copenhagen Flames back in 2017. The "extraordinary player, that has shown his huge potential time and time again" is expected to bring his big event and high-pressure game experience to the team.
