Astralis have taken their first-ever premier tournament win with a 2-0 victory over OpTic Gaming in the ECS Season 2 Grand Finals.

Astralis' showdown with OpTic was something of a grudge match, as OpTic defeated Astralis 2-1 at the ELEAGUE Season 2 finals just one week earlier. This time, the Danes swept their NA rivals with a dominant 16-6 on Overpass and a narrower 16-11 on Train.

Astralis finished at the top of the ECS regular season European division with a 13-5 record, and topped their finals group as well with best-of-one wins over OpTic and FaZe Clan. They went on to beat SK Gaming 2-0 in the first round of the playoffs bracket before sweeping OpTic in the Grand Finals.

Though it is the first time the organization has earned an offline title since it was founded in January, members Andreas "Xyp9x" Højsleth, Peter "dupreeh" Rothmann and Nicolai "dev1ce" Reedtz took home plenty of trophies in 2015, while they were signed to Team SoloMid.

In October, Astralis swapped in-game leaders, dropping Finn "karrigan" Andersen in favor of Lukas "gla1ve" Rossander. Since then, the team have seen nothing but success, placing 3rd-4th at IEM Oakland, then second at ELEAGUE and now first at ECS.
