"Once we fix communication, we can be really dangerous": kyxsan on new Aurora team @Pleygg

Uploaded August 2026 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

Following the IEM Cologne Major, Aurora shifted from a Turkish core to an international lineup with the additions of Damjan "kyxsan" Stoilkovski and Jimi "Jimpphat" Salo. As the team approaches 50 days of official play, their new in-game leader highlights both the progress made and the remaining hurdles, particularly regarding communication.

This interview was made before the start of BLAST Open Porto 2026, where Aurora lost their first match against G2. The new international roster will play tomorrow against DENDELE in the lower bracket.
