Cr1t- Leaves Competitive Dota 2 After Major Victories

Andreas “Cr1t-” Nielsen is a Danish support player who has been with Team Falcons since November 2023. During his tenure, the team became one of the strongest globally, securing victories in numerous prestigious tournaments. The Falcons won The International 2025, three consecutive seasons of DreamLeague — 22, 23, and 24, and also claimed titles at ESL One Birmingham 2024 and two championships in the BetBoom Dacha series — in Dubai and Belgrade. If the rumors are true, Cr1t- will leave the competitive scene at the peak of his success, with numerous major trophies and multi-million dollar prizes to his name.

Possible Replacement for Saksa

Martin “Saksa” Sazdov is a Macedonian support player who has been with Tundra Esports since February 2022. During this time, he earned over $3.6 million in prize money, helped the team win The International 2022, and secured a top-8 finish at TI 2025. If the insider information is accurate, Saksa, who recently turned 30, will have the chance to compete for titles again with the reigning world champions.

What's Next for Tundra Esports

According to OFFSTAGE, following Saksa's potential departure, Tundra Esports is also considering roster changes. Sources report that the club may sign Erik “tOfu” Engel and Ivan “Pure” Moskalenko to strengthen the revamped roster ahead of the new season. If the rumors are confirmed, the roster changes in Team Falcons and Tundra could significantly impact the balance of power in Dota 2 during the offseason.
