Tier-1 scene reshuffles have begun: Saksa and Crystallis went inactive
Tundra Esports said goodbye to Crystallis and Saksa. It became known that the team's carry — Crystallis went inactive and left the team immediately after the announcement of Saksa going inactive.
Crystallis joined Tundra Esports in March of this year, replacing dyrachyo in the carry position. During his time with the team, he helped achieve significant results, including a victory at BLAST Slam III and 4th place at Esports World Cup 2025. However, after the conclusion of The International 2025, where Tundra Esports placed 7-8, the organization decided on changes.
At the same time, the team was left by the experienced support player Saksa, who had been playing for Tundra Esports since February 2022 and was a key part of the roster that won The International 11. This is not the first time Saksa has gone inactive — in 2023, he took a break due to health issues related to OCD.
The current roster of Tundra Esports now looks as follows:
- TBD
- Bzm
- 33
- TBD
- Whitemon
- MoonMeander (coach)
According to insiders, a possible candidate for the carry position could be Pure, who has already played for Tundra Esports last year and helped the team take 3rd place at The International 2024. For the support position of the fourth position, tOfu from the disbanded Gaimin Gladiators is being considered, although this information has not yet been officially confirmed.
These roster changes mark the beginning of a new phase for Tundra Esports, which will need to assemble a competitive roster before the start of the next season.
