NIP & Alliance invited to Svenska Cupen 2023

Sweden's national tournament will be held in Stockholm in December.

NIP was victorious in the 2022 edition

Ninjas in Pyjamas will attend the Svenska Cupen, a Swedish LAN at the Space Arena that will begin on December 2. Sweden's premier organization took the trophy home in the 2022 tournament after beating EYEBALLERS in the final.

Björn "⁠THREAT⁠" Pers' return as General Manager of NIP has put the lineup under question, but a Swedish core will be necessary to attend the Svenska Cupen.

THREAT: "I will be looking into making some changes to the team"

EYEBALLERS will also return, and will be joined by Alliance and GODSENT — the core of which was victorious as Sweden at IESF — to complete the invites.

The closed qualifier will take place on October 23, with Metizport being the most notable team pencilled in as attending.

It would be a disgrace if NIP didnt change their roster and wait for this tournament instead. Also, dont underestimate the full swe teams, especially with MR12.

So NIP has to have Swedish majority team still in December meaning NIP won't replace any of the Swedes? Sounds like they won't get any better for the rest of the year then

I think they will give the current roster another go until next season. The changes that Threat talked about is probably about the future and not now. Could also bring in Maxster from the academy if they have 2 swedes in the lineup then

Yeah maybe, but still for me the biggest problem of the lineup since k0nfig joined has been the role overlap between him and Brollan and one of them has to go. I'd probably keep k0nfig, but Brollan could also be decent especially since he is still so young.

With Harumis "leaks" they will apparently bench two players. I dont think it is economically realistic to have 3 players on the bench while signing 2 new. es3tag recently uploaded a tweet looking for a team, so maybe NIP are looking to sell him off before they move on. As I said these NIP changes wont happen until like December - January
