NiP exit ESL Pro League

3-12-2014 23:35

The Electronic Sports League has announced that 3DMAX will fill in for Ninjas in Pyjamas in the ESL Pro League.

The Swedish giants, who finished runners-up to LDLC at DreamHack Winter, have pulled out of the $48,000 European league as some of the team's players will be on vacation during this month.

As the second team with the highest number of community votes behind Planetkey Dynamics, 3DMAX have been invited to replace NiP and will be placed in Group A, alongside the likes of dignitas and Na`Vi.

NiP will take a break in December

The seeding distribution of the group has now altered as a result of these changes, with dignitas getting the top seed, while 3DMAX have been handed the fifth seed.

Group A's first round now looks as follows:

dignitas	vs.	myKPV.de
3DMAX	vs.	myXMG
Epsilon	vs.	PENTA Sports
ESC Gaming	vs.	Na`Vi

yeah VP beat them 2-0 online. New lineup with maikelele. NIP did not qualify for any LAN event lol. The only events they attended in the 2nd half of this year are those that they were invited to, ESL one Cologne and DH Winter.

GlHf 3DMAX

2014-12-04 02:05

vacation xD

2014-12-04 02:47

NIP is going to stay low until the next Major in 2015, so they can show off their T-Rex strength. This is perfect, because their performance in DHW was good with only 2-3 weeks practice with Maikelele. Now imagine what they will do after a month or two practicing and never showing their rivals weak points.

2014-12-04 03:06

This turns up to be a tournament that Dignitas can actually win if they win with Na'Vi and their onw weaknesses.
