This market will resolve to "Yes" if any player joins or leaves Astralis' main cs2 roster (defined as players listed with status = "Starter" in the "Players of Astralis" table on HLTV: https://www.hltv.org/team/6665/astralis#tab-rosterBox) by August 31 11:59pm ET, 2026. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". As of market creation the active starter roster consists of the following five players: Staehr, jabbi, HooXi, phzy, ryu. Name changes or aliases referring to the same player do not qualify as roster changes. For the purpose of this market, "roster change" refers to any official signing, transfer, benching to inactive/reserve, release, retirement, or departure of a player from the active starter lineup. This includes adding new players (transfers, free agent signings, or loans), removing players (to bench/inactive, free agency, or other teams), or any change resulting in a different 5-player active roster on HLTV. Coach changes and temporary stand-ins for a single event will not count. For matches and events, the stand-in appears in the active 5-player lineup but with a clear marker (e.g., [SI]) to distinguish them from the core roster. The primary resolution source for this market will be HLTV; however a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.**Astralis’s current five-man CS2 lineup—HooXi, phzy, jabbi, Staehr, and ryu—has remained unchanged since the January 2026 international rebuild that added the Swedish AWPer and Lithuanian rifler.** The only subsequent move was the June 2026 parting with head coach ruggah after a disappointing IEM Cologne Major exit, followed by the July appointment of Filip “NEO” Kubski as the new head coach (joined by performance coach Xirreth). The organization explicitly stated in mid-June that rumors of further player changes were “unsubstantiated,” and no credible reports have emerged since. With the roster now integrated under NEO and competing in events such as the August 2026 Esports World Cup (where Astralis reached the playoffs before elimination by G2), the market consensus at 88% for “No” reflects the absence of any confirmed or strongly signaled roster moves in the final days before September. Recent results and the post-Major coaching transition appear to have stabilized the squad in the short term.
