NiP march on to playoffs

NiP have overcome Universial Soldiers with 16-4 on de_inferno, advancing to the playoff stage at DreamHack Winter.

Ninjas in Pyjamas opened up the match with a pistol round win on the terrorist side of de_inferno, the round featured a heavy push on the arch side and just when it seemed that the Poles have good chances defending the wrap around, Adam "friberg" Friberg pulled an amazing glock stunt to win the round against three opponents.

The first buy round from Universial Soldiers continued in the same fashion where they simply couldn't stop the push from the defending champions and before they even figured out what is going on, they were facing a 0-4 deficit.

The Poles managed to secure the round number six, even though their luck didn't last enough to keep the situation going into their favour.

NiP won the next round with Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg with a cheeky backstab on two enemies.

With a 7-1 scoreline, Ninjas in Pyjamas caught their competitors off guard once again on the A bombsite, but we witnessed a great comeback featuring a retake from the playbooks, with Jarosław "pasha" Jarząbkowski" making the difference with his famas.

NiP are the third Swedish team in playoffs so far

Once again the domestic team managed to get the next few rounds and it was Friberg being the man making the difference with the typical entry frags he usually lays down.

Even though the Universial Soldiers were facing a really tough economic situation, they managed to win more round by the end of the half, the final result being 12-3. 

The second half was pretty once sided as the Swedes won four out five remaining rounds with a smart defuse by Lindberg in the final round.

 

Next stop for the Universial Soldiers will be facing Recursive in the consolidation final in a few moments.
