Official: NIP confirm changes; Young Ninjas players to stand-in

19-2-2024 17:19

Ninjas in Pyjamas enter the next transfer window ahead of time following their PGL Major RMR disaster.

Only REZ and alex remain on NIP's active roster

Ninjas in Pyjamas have benched Patrick "⁠es3tag⁠" Hansen, Kristian "⁠k0nfig⁠" Wienecke, Daniil "⁠headtr1ck⁠" Valitov and released coach Daniel "⁠djL⁠" Narancic, the organization has announced, confirming a Sunday report of the move from HLTV.

Only Fredrik "⁠REZ⁠" Sterner, who has been with the team since 2017, and Ninjas in Pyjamas' latest signing, in-game leader Alejandro "⁠alex⁠" Masanet, now remain on the active roster as the organization looks to rebuild.

To temporarily fill the void and give the organization time to build a competitive lineup post-RMR and Major, NIP has promoted Max "⁠maxster⁠" Jansson, Leo "⁠Silence⁠" Ingvarsson, and Maoz "⁠BluePho3nix⁠" Paz from Young Ninjas to play in the BLAST Spring Showdown and onward until a new lineup can be formed. NIP's General Manager, Björn "⁠THREAT⁠" Pers, will also temporarily step in as coach.

The announcement follows the team's disastrous campaign at the PGL Major Copenhagen Europe RMR A tournament, where Ninjas in Pyjamas went out in last place with losses to Eternal Fire, AMKAL and SAW to miss out on a Major spot for the first time since 2018.

The RMR failure was only the latest of a series of disappointing exits dating back to the middle of 2023, which have seen the organization plummet to its lowest-ever 27th ranking.

Extensive changes then come as little surprise given the organization's goal to have a title-winning roster. In a recent video, THREAT and NIP's Director of Esports, Erik Wendel, acknowledged the team's poor form and outlined their commitment to putting Ninjas in Pyjamas back "on the very top" by January 2025, when they will no longer be able to rely on franchise spots in ESL and BLAST circuits.

NIP: "We have to be on the top by January 2025"

Wendel stated at the time that the team is not afraid to splash the cash at the right time, and that, should the current lineup not prove itself, they would look at options to get "a superstar signing" after the RMR or Major.

"We expect the next few months to present many interesting opportunities and we are well-positioned to capitalize: we have a strong financial position, top-tier infrastructure and a ton more data on what makes a good CS2 player," the organization said in its announcement. "Most importantly, though, we have an established philosophy of practicing and managing all the things that constitute vibes, and a player mindset that fits that philosophy.

"A few months from now, a new squad of Ninjas will rise from the ashes, and the whole team is working with a clarity of purpose that infuses us with hope for the future. Whether it all works out, we cannot predict — but we expect our fans to keep holding us to account."

Ninjas in Pyjamas will temporarily be:

Fredrik "⁠REZ⁠" Sterner
Alejandro "⁠alex⁠" Masanet
Max "⁠maxster⁠" Jansson (stand-in)
Leo "⁠Silence⁠" Ingvarsson (stand-in)
Maoz "⁠BluePho3nix⁠" Paz (stand-in)

Björn "⁠THREAT⁠" Pers (stand-in coach)

Daniil "⁠headtr1ck⁠" Valitov (benched)
Patrick "⁠es3tag⁠" Hansen (benched)
Kristian "⁠k0nfig⁠" Wienecke (benched)

how? Headtr1ck was projected to be the next monesy. he will shine now that he is out of NiP prison

headtr1ck is literally older than m0nesy

2024-02-20 11:58

no, he was sold as next m0nesy XD but he never was + he is a rifle player not even AWP! NAVI just made money and nip manager was so stupid they paid mega money because they are apes and they have no idea what they doing XD

2024-02-20 23:16

He was NEVER, and only scrubs think that. Headtrick was literally on the same team with m0nesy both playing on navi junior together, and head trick was the RIFLER, he literally awped in the academy league for what half a year or a year? And didn't pull insane numbers like m0nesy did and had nowhere near the same eye test. The fact that nip bought him for that much money is easily the biggest stain in nip management of the last few years, and they've made LOADS of terrible management decisions, just atleast those decisions didn't cost nip hundreds of thousands of dollars.

but he wanted to awp

2024-02-19 18:17

Exactly idk why people saying he was forced to AWP he willing took the AWP role after mONESY left Navi JR so he was signed as an AWPer NIP didn’t force him

2024-02-19 18:41

what about c9 headtrick?

2024-02-19 20:37

exactly what?

2024-02-19 20:38

At this point I feel like c9 would rather disband before they accept the fact they need a dedicated awper

2024-02-19 22:57

groove looks like a clown either way xD

2024-02-20 02:18

maybe they -perfecto and +headtrick, g2 picks up perfecto to replace noobxa, W both ways. But that is if they realize they won't win shit with their current lineup

2024-02-20 08:33

4 replies

I appreciate you realize perfecto Is a great player. But yeah even role wise that wouldn't make sense. It would definitely be ax1le or I guess hobbit if you want to put faith in ax1le getting back to form + the age factor with hobbit

2024-02-20 23:28

3 replies

L both ways here, if you remove ax1le, it's a downgrade in terms of fire power. If you remove perfecto someone has to sacrifice (likely hobbit), I'd go the 2nd option

2024-02-21 13:10

Nah ax1le hasn't been relevant firepower wise for quite a while in cs terms. And that's despite having the best or second best roles in the team. Although yeah head trick isn't really the replacement I personally would do.

2024-02-21 15:55

Ax1le feels like a flamie situation all over again. A has-been player who used to be good but is taking up space on an otherwise really good team that could be great with just a single change.

2024-02-25 23:27

lol…

2024-02-19 18:27

2024-02-19 19:01

time is now or else disband

2024-02-19 23:35

how is rez still trapped with them :,D

2024-02-20 04:30

Trapped? more like being a leech

Rip Nip

sweedish and danish power house orgs are trash now xD

2024-02-19 17:45

you are wrong about the danish orgs, they are doing fine

astralis.. not what they were. not even in the same league homie.... heroic.. barely even a top 15 team... lmfao og is ass. lmfao reason gaming disappeared for so long, came back with a new line up and are ass.... all of the Copenhagen teams, wolves/flames/ect are gone... lol again. the danish orgs are falling.

2024-02-19 18:47

orgs and players come and go, heroic and astralis are doing good consider how new the rosters are.

2024-02-19 18:54

-1 Not what they used to be? You mean the most dominant team in the world? No… but they are still a great team, so are heroic. You think any of the top 10 teams would take it lightly when playing them? No. Copenhagen flames is a weak org with bad economy so after their good run in the major they got great offers for all players and sold them. All players are still at it, for example in orgs like Preasy.

2024-02-19 19:00

Dragging T2 orgs into this is crazy. Wolves and Flames has never been orgs that were supposed to reach the top because they mostly developed players that then would head off to orgs such as Heroic and Astralis, and the reason they're gone is because the whole scene in general is fucked when it comes to economy, even FaZe has revealed how many millions they're losing despite being one of the best for many years. Saying that Heroic and Astralis are trash now because they aren't what they used to be is even crazier, if we follow that logic, every existing org is trash because they've all been better at some point, if an org wins a major does that mean it has to win every major forever from that point, otherwise it's trash? NiP has been irrelevant since their 87-0 streak which was in like 2014. Astralis has been relevant up untill like 2020 and Heroic took over and has been showing the flag literally a few months ago. So because they're not the best in the world NOW, they're trash? Or what do you base that on? :D

2024-02-19 19:22

"what do you base that on? :D" the fact that he isnt danish. he wish he was, but he isnt. as simple as that.

2024-02-19 20:44

Canada can't even make a 5 man roster lol.. take ur mothers meds

2024-02-19 21:25

LOL sure we can homie. clearly you dont know wtf is what. lmfao

2024-02-19 21:45

watch them do better than the prior roster xd

alex still in team XD

top 3 igl obv

2024-02-19 17:21

you cant throw food into a dumpster and expect it to be edible that's all i have to say

But it seems NIP forgot to take out all the trash...

2024-02-19 17:50

sentimental shit stain

2024-02-19 18:32

What does that even mean

2024-02-19 18:31

they just did. and now theyre rebuidling

They kept alex why?

2024-02-21 07:45

alex is good and will lead nip to top 10 end of this year

maybe not tier5 but gonna gatekeep tier3 i think

Most likely they will build upon rez, maxster and alex after the major when players become available. And hopefully add xizt as coach. He said he was open for it, and now that they've removed djL I don't see anyone else more fitting.

2024-02-19 17:27

As long as nip insist on keeping Rez they will never be title contenders, its just the truth

2024-02-19 17:37

Who knows

2024-02-19 18:01

anything with alex as igl will end in a disaster

2024-02-19 18:08

+1 on xizt they should also -alex and go full swedish again, add ztr as IGL as i think he's been doing fine in that other swedish team, also try to snatch nilo and keep maxster or something along those lines rez, nilo, ztr, maxster, []

2024-02-19 18:55

That would be pretty great but it isn't that easy. They also just signed Alex like what, 3 months ago? Benching him now would be financially stupid, at least before giving him a real chance with a proper lineup. I would love for nip to go for a full Swedish lineup straight away but I don't think it's realistic atm. Hopefully the lineup will be full Swedish before January next year. Also the reason Nilo is not in nip is because he is still in school until he graduates this summer. So going to nip before that is not logical.

Its just for some Blast Event.

yeah, and it should be permanent somewhat.

Is he any good?

depends on what's good to you, from my perspective he seems somewhat decent.

2024-02-19 18:12

noice.

2024-02-19 18:13

How did they managed to downgrade? xd

12 replies

It's temporarily, if you knew how to read

Temporarily tf

Meaning "we use these players untill we figure out what talents to sign"

2024-02-19 17:24

he's really struggling, isn't he:D

2024-02-19 17:28

Thats copium

???? It's literally their plan dude. Unless you're part of NIP management and know something we don't.

2024-02-19 18:02

to expect nip's management to have a plan after all this blunders is a bit optimistic

2024-02-19 18:23

why bench players if they don't have their permanent solutions ready? How is changing an already failing team again going to help?

2024-02-21 08:53

There is no one to pick up rn, because players are locked in for the major. Terrible time to rebuild, so they have to wait.

2024-02-20 00:26

so why not wait with the benching as well?

2024-02-21 08:54

the roster is just for blast showdown lol

however you look at this temporary roster - it's still an upgrade lmao

2024-02-19 18:20

ñinjas are real

Too little too late to bring in academy players. You already let go all the really good ones

Better keep Mr 6/30. :D

maxster standing in for 23109 time

they must promote hem not only stand-in allways

2024-02-19 17:23

Imagine maxsters 2023: stand-in for hampus until NIP signs konfig instead (LOL). Even worse than that is NIP choosing esetag as support instead of him... Maxster loyal AF!

2024-02-19 18:24

Expected, but is it true?

THREAD is problem. Since NIP signed him, they lose themself.

Threath comeback few months ago, nip is trash since years

2024-02-19 18:19

Threat was in NIP before but left in search of greener grass, no other org wanted him and now he is back lmao.

2024-02-19 18:28

He left because he didn’t get the opportunity to build a good team that nip deserves. Then calc left and threat came back see the connection? It’s not like he couldn’t get a job.. he is more educated than most people.

2024-02-19 21:22

"Trying out a new role this past year has been a learnful experience, but I sincerely miss working closely with a team, having a more direct impact," THREAT said. "I am super excited for upcoming new opportunities in 2023!" He did not find any new gig in CS as far as I know, that could mean that he is not held in a very high regard or he did not want to work with any of the teams that wanted him. All he has accomplished so far since returning to NIP 5 months ago is pushing the team futher down the toilet, shitty roster moves and a 4/20 map wins (on hltv) with the roster he built with alex. Sure, I agree that the pieces he had to play with was inherited in some extent and his real work starts now. Let's see if he can hold what he promised about NIP in 2025, I have my doubts though.

2024-02-19 23:07

nah, it's on him as well. Due to coping of "we could have gotten Cadian but Alex was better anyway" they won't even bench him now just because sunk cost fallacy Alex is 100% Threat's fault

2024-02-21 09:00

Alex stays :skull:

Sign PHZY back , 1.44 rating currently playing for rare atom.

+1 guy was a beast

smurfing in asia is not hard

2024-02-19 17:33

0.90 while he was playing on nip

He gained much experience since then ...

In Asia? That experience is irrelevant in EU

2024-02-20 04:39

maybe could've gone 1-3 at the rmr

Are these guys good? Haven't seen them in action

ofc not, they just made this lineup for free to collect some dollars from the last place tourney finishes

2024-02-19 17:25

Showdown don’t have pricepool

headtr1ck the next m0nesy, they said

Who said this? Memes was around, but nobody actually said this?

2024-02-19 17:34

some of the pros were saying it, at the start of the season they pick the next prodigy. Alot of players said headtr1ck will be the next monesy

2024-02-20 00:00

I guess the pros were in on the memes

2024-02-21 09:01

Pros follow memes all the time because its an effective way to not have to talk about your own game or your own team

2024-02-21 09:37

>giving away who you think is going to be a future good player somehow betrays their own game What the fuck are you on about?

2024-02-21 09:43

I remember many casters and commentators said this. They hyped this man up way too much

2024-02-29 15:03

But they run out of stuff to say so they will just say anything

2024-02-29 15:22

headtr1ck is not an awper

Yeah and S1mple wasn't an awper either. Many awpers picked up the gun just because nobody else wanted to. There are a lot of other factors to take into account, but your skill with the awp usually correlates with your skill in general.

2024-02-19 18:06

I wanted to play awp but no one picked me up. :(

2024-02-19 18:10

+1 broky also wasnt awp from start

2024-02-19 18:22

headtr1ck is good lol

2024-02-24 13:56

DOA team xD i mean dead on arival

instead of disbanding and hiring a real team they rebuild for the 9th time, this org is so done

+1 why bench players if you don't have the permanent replacements ready?

2024-02-21 09:03

Seeing as all the best players are benched I think they themselves decided to leave :p

lol I love the sarcasm

2024-02-19 17:51

Keeping alex Keeping REZ LOLOLOL

tbf REZ has not been underpreforming, he's been keeping decent ratings in a time where NIP has had a 23% win rate, hope he can escape NIP jail soon. I just wish they would just sign TheMongolz and ruin the Mongol scene instead of the Swedish one.

2024-02-19 17:36

What swedish scene are we talking about? Did it really exist nowadays?

Well, Metizport look decent apart from Jackinho. And they are also only playing part time atm. Some good talent in there with the likes of nilo.

REZ + Alex it's like keeping Tabsen + Krimbo, both are ok... nothing special

2024-02-22 08:31

TabseN is a beast, just not as an IGL

2024-02-24 13:57

BROLLAN ON SUICIDE WATCH RN LOL. He would want to play in swedish speaking team.

alex is there

2024-02-19 17:32

I think he's happy in mouz

2024-02-20 02:19

Ah yes, Alex, the famous swedish speaker

2024-02-21 09:22

Give up all your best assets in the past to get alex and now after he showed his class he still has a spot.

sunk cost fallacy

REJOICE! HEADTR1CK IS SAVED FROM THE NIP CURSE!

Sorry i'm not the one to laugh but its so funny They even downgraded their entire roster far more HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH 1KD awper 0,65 rifler 1.02 rifler REZ now finally will be star player.

It's temporary bruh

Why would they waste time with a roster they want to bench?

14 replies

It's way better to have atleast an avg results and be in groups than go out before tournament starts.

2024-02-19 17:46

Average results ?

That roster which is temporary is not gonna even make it on qualifiers. How do they expect to fight anything in groups

2024-02-19 17:53

How do u expect old roster do something? 0-3 on RMR and didn’t play vs a single t1 team

They still seem like a better fit than this btw.

I mean they are loosing showdown anyway, spirit is there

it's just for blast and waiting for post major

2024-02-19 18:25

Why waste time with a temporary roster? did you just unironically ask this?

2024-02-21 09:26

I didn't ask why they would waste time with a temporary roster, I asked why they would waste time with a current roster they don't want

2024-02-21 09:31

lmaooo they don't want this roster either, otherwise they wouldn't call them stand-ins "why waste time with roster they don't want, when they could waste time with this roster they also don't want?" t.GM_Highlander

2024-02-21 09:44

Never claimed they wanted to keep the stand-ins either, the so called quote you wrote doesn't really make any sense. Seems like your jimmies are quite rustled for something this elementary

2024-02-21 10:02

It does make sense, you coping about it doesn't make it any less true. Your question was about why would they waste time on a roster they don't want, not realizing that they are doing the exact same thing with a different roster. I am sorry your clapback got called out :(

2024-02-21 10:04

The one coping about it is obviously you, making up quotes doesn't help you either. Neither of us really know if they want to keep the stand-ins or not, what we do know is that they do not want to keep the people they just benched :^)

2024-02-21 10:09

that was the weakest "no u" attempt I didn't make up anything " Neither of us really know if they want to keep the STAND-INS or not" STAND-INS I thought Swedes were supposed to be good with reading comprehension. Must be a "native" Swede

2024-02-21 12:48

Ya if u wanna lose every match 12-3

2024-02-19 18:26

you loss by 13-2 not 12-3 and this roster is 13-0 against any well prepared team.

lol

2024-02-19 18:29

Three more years and REZ will get his 10 year coin

Letting Hampus and Brollan Go was a mistake imo!!

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat they benched k0nflict and headtrick but maintain alex and rez? xddddddddddd i cant

2024-02-19 17:29

i guess they can't bench alex after like 4 officials lol

Wtf is this lineup KEKW

2024-02-19 17:30

LOL

Nice

+joel make it happen

another mixed roster of randoms - what is this. REBUILD A SWEDISH TEAM FFS This is soooo dumb.

Name 4 suitable swedish players, if we're keeping Rez

2024-02-19 17:47

f0rest GeT_RighT friberg Meikelele xD

2024-02-19 17:56

alex is still on the team xaxaxaxa

bruh what is this

keep rez = no hope

This. Unbelievable.

just disband

I have no hope for NIP management I know that this roaster it's just temporary but I have an intuition that they could keep some of the young ninjas players just to save some money when they'll remake the roaster. I hope i'm wrong tho, I would like to see some good players coming in NIP.

2024-02-19 17:35

Maybe Threat is the issue..?

WHY ARE THEY BENCHING HEADTRICK BUT KEEPING ALEX AND REZ? If they rebuilt around a Swedish lineup that would make sense but they instead keep Alex and put an Israeli player there, so it will remain a mixed lineup. This is so weird.......

They must be a lot poorer than we thought.

NiP Impact is better than this fpl mix

holy... didn't expected them to downgrade xD

What downgrade? they are currently only with REZ and alex

what nip doing ? nip going to hell

the 100th nip roster move blunder by now

EG 2.0

maxster deserves to be in the official line up

2024-02-19 17:41

As a NiP fan, fucking finally

6/30 6/30 6/30 6/30 6/30 lmaooo.

i wont lie,but es3tag just farming money on the bench.

We've seen it before. Only phzy looked really promising in the main roster.

2024-02-19 17:43

Nice work .

Which "superstar" would join this

-blueguy -alex +ztr +phzy

how alex is still in the team LMAOOOO

bot rez remains happily

I like the idea of holding on to rez. Let's give him a last shot in a entirely new lineup and see how he performs there.

2024-02-19 17:49

Good

retard org

European EG on steroids NiP Black and talent pipeline next?

2024-02-19 17:55

If it is a start of fundamental changes but not random moves, it's interesting.

3 cool players benched, I don't know how the org made them get so bad results

2024-02-19 17:58

W from NIP

clownfiesta

Nip management is the worst in the scene.

why bench headtr1ck lmao

why not jacob??????????

2024-02-19 18:03

Good riddance. Good luck to headtr1ck, konflikt and hope es3tag can be a perfect fit as he joins the falcons clown fiesta colossus 2.0 , you know its gonna happen lol

2024-02-19 18:07

Unless they revert their rebrand snd and sign s1mple it won't be successful

Here we go again, another 3 years wasted shuffling Young Ninjas players in and out.

who cars about this dead team

2024-02-19 18:14

lmaoo, i've seen this one before..

2024-02-19 18:16

more potential than the old lineup 100%

2024-02-19 18:18

"we have ... a ton more data on what makes a good CS2 player," - is that the same data by which they made their last roster changes? Must be great then

lmao

It is the same data that made Threat say "we could have gotten Cadian but Alex much better anyway"

2024-02-21 09:56

"Over the past two years, Young Ninjas, as a project, has been crucial to our ability to deal with sudden roster changes and this time is no different. Their inclusion buys us a level of flexibility that places us in a strong position for the inevitable post-RMR and post-Major shuffles." how other teams use their academy vs how nip uses it =)))) joke of an organization

Likely gonna be even worse than it was :D

I'm done with this idi*ts...

Wonder what headtrick will do

Sign bladE if you want alex to perform

Gotta start somewhere, and testing with the academy players is at least a sign of change

After all this time REZ is still on the team somehow KEKW

2024-02-19 18:51

AleksiB was the problem!

2024-02-19 18:52

I think they should replace THREAT. NiP did better pita than this bot

Pita had forest on the lineup. After he left there is only one direction they can go.

2024-02-19 21:28

very true... But geez these player decisions being made is crazy....

2024-02-19 23:12

Not all of them. Seems kinda like the team is cursed now. I mean aleksib wasn’t a bad signing if you are looking for an igl. It just didn’t turn out like they wanted.. device bad signing? Konfig wasn’t a bad signing either. But yes some makes no sense, like bringing back esetag. Who thought that was a good idea?

2024-02-21 09:32

Id rather have esetag back than signing alex. gettin hampus bad wasnt bad either but the other players (prolly konfig) bullied him away again. Maybe its not all the org's fault about the decisions. Many of em has just turned sour. Aleksi wasnt the problem but he has a curse on him being blamed anyway

2024-02-23 13:49

I didnt mean that getting back esetag was some kind of doom move because he is shit but its like the smallest dream ever to bring him back. As a signing I can compare it to asking a child what he wants to be when he grows up and he tells me, I want to work at a gas station. Sure he can but he really cant dream bigger then that?

2024-02-27 22:55

Alex and REZ remain on the roster lmaoooo NIP is a joke

what dirty laundry does Rez have on the management ffs? like they need a 100% rebuild not a 60%

2024-02-19 19:04

bending forward prolly

2024-02-23 13:50

been all downhill since they changed their logo

2024-02-19 19:25

haha REZ still there, this guy is immune

He's really the only one that was putting up impact. The fact that alex is still there even over k0nfig or headtr1ck is the funniest thing. Threat really doesn't wanna admit that his opinion on alex was wrong.

2024-02-19 20:17

sunk cost fallacy. I swear to god if this is going to be the reason for not having a full swedish lineup lmao

2024-02-21 10:05

hahaha as always This is why NiP is in top 3 of the most shittiest org when it comes shuffling. Jesus christ already, players from metizport or GODSENT would have given a more chance for a BIT success. Besides maxster, the team is pretty shit and the fact that alex actually left his spanish men for this is a joke. NIP does not have international success, if u want success u go full swede again and pray for the best. I have never seen a org this shit over the years when making lineups. Surely GeT_RiGhT and f0rest at laughing at home watching these disgraces ruin the name of NIP and its history in CS

2024-02-19 19:27

They are temporarily in the team bozo.

2024-02-19 23:53

why bench the current team if the "permanent" replacements aren't ready, bozo?

2024-02-21 10:07

why keep alex? low iq calls, dogshit aim

THREAT always doing shit but no one blames him

2024-02-19 19:29

pricetag back on bench huh

NIP's CS management is absolute dogshit HAHAHAHAH

2024-02-19 19:35

Still REZ,gg NIP

2024-02-19 19:37

Grats headtrick. I dont know why even keep rez

2024-02-19 19:38

hello max but remove alex and get headtrick back lol

2024-02-19 19:39

bubzjki predicted this damn

2024-02-19 19:44

Nice.

2024-02-19 19:51

thank god brollan went to mouz

2024-02-19 20:06

alex still on the team, djL sacked instead of THREAT, the real problem and the one djL took the bullet for. Yeah, the next NIP project will be just as shit with 85 IQ management like this still making decisions.

2024-02-19 20:16

Imagine keeping REZ XDDDD up and coming star since 2017 he only looked half decent when he played with dev1ce

2024-02-19 20:34

they kept the two worst players xDD

2024-02-19 20:47

2024-02-19 20:59

Rez is the best player by far, ratio, adr, everything. Headtrick and esetag are bots.

2024-02-19 21:39

Probably still better than their old roster

2024-02-19 21:13

So that pointless esetag signing turned out to be... Pointless after all huh, who would have thought.

remember when everyone thought headtrick was going to be the next s1mple? told yall, he doesnt have the mentality for T1 LAN events.

swedish IQ LOLOLOLOLO, so bad

2024-02-19 21:29

Finnish is equally dead.

2024-02-19 21:40

Get Alex out of here ASAP

2024-02-19 21:52

you got so bad after chancing logo

2024-02-19 22:25

kick alex pls btw, ⁠headtr1ck⁠ > Silence

2024-02-19 22:28

Up there with TSM and Bleed now, already top 3 in that regard

2024-02-19 23:16

just get rid of the whole org at this point

2024-02-19 23:44

This org is a freakshow

2024-02-20 00:12

Rez - Alex - maxter-nilo- s1mple. Robban coach. Thats t1

2024-02-20 00:36

NIP definitely signing KRIMZ

2024-02-20 01:20

REZ still in NIP LMAO

2024-02-20 02:15

He's best consistent player in nip 🤨

2024-02-20 06:04

stop the hate on rez, you got zero cs knowledge,

2024-02-20 18:27

>defends REZ >calls out zero cs knowledge

2024-02-21 12:56

hes crazy good still, insane aim and clutch 90%

2024-02-21 14:02

I really hope I found REZ's parents account and not REZ's account

2024-02-21 16:53

lmao you are just danish,

2024-02-21 18:14

I've never been insulted like this before

2024-02-22 08:48

no one said that, tell me what rez done bad with your cs knowledge, crosshair placement? movement? gamesense?

2024-02-22 11:57

erm, his performance perhaps?

2024-02-22 12:28

pfffttt xD

2024-02-20 02:31

Emil ‘HeatoN’ Christensen, you have to look for kids with that will to play you see in donk, that spark you've seen in old legendary NiP lineups, and you DON'T see in plopski, rez and such bad players. it's not all about the stats. When you hire players, gotta remember stuff like that legendary immortals run in the major - players capable of doing that kind of thing is who you gotta hire. that's the good example. bad example would be shroud, who quitted really fast lmao. lycka till

2024-02-20 04:01

you do know that heaton does not manage nip any longer?

2024-02-20 04:06

goes to show how irrelevant NiP has become

2024-02-21 00:22

yea nip is a tier 2 team

2024-02-21 03:01

I don't know if you know, but plopski is actually performing well now that he's come out of that bomb called nip. The problem has always been the team.

2024-02-21 00:08

performing well in tier 2 is not the same. regardless, the kid is horrible

2024-02-21 00:19

Yes, performing against tier2 because his team can only qualify for these tournaments, yet. Anyway, younger and better than rez

2024-02-21 00:51

already had his chance in t1, and failed

2024-02-21 01:10

Again I'll explain, your team was rubbish. There are few players who can stand out on a bad team, that's not the case with plopski.

2024-02-21 15:41

he was one of the worst from that lineup lol

2024-02-21 16:54

The guy who is a Sanji fan has no morals to talk about plopski That line was bad, especially rez who was part of about five lines and in none of them managed to stand out 😭 End of discussion here, I'm too good at CS to exchange ideas with NEWBA who shouldn't even be rank 20 in mm 🤙🏼

2024-02-21 22:48

well SANJI has played a major final, what else can I say?

2024-02-22 00:17

>player plays better against T2 opponents than T1 You should be funded in the name of Science

2024-02-21 13:03

Why Alex still in? 😂😂😂😂

2024-02-20 06:03

one of the mysteries of humanity

2024-02-20 06:54

BENCH REZ AS WELL

2024-02-20 07:26

Joke team.

2024-02-20 07:57

rotfl

2024-02-20 11:44

circus

2024-02-20 11:46

Please let REZ out of NiPrison - so much of his career gone already

Please kick THREAT and anyone not a Swede and create a Swedish team...

2024-02-20 13:15

just get 7emporary (awp god) instant top 10

2024-02-20 16:09

better than old lineup, krimz REZ brollan (good with krimz same the rez) alex give him a chance joel awp, decent good team.

2024-02-20 18:31

Bring back f0rest :D

2024-02-20 21:00

N0P fix: nilo REZ joel (awp) isak (support) hampus (IGL) NiP pls hire me I’m better than your managers

2024-02-20 23:49

+1 or adamb (support)

2024-02-24 22:44

>rez in 2024 Totally braindead

2024-02-21 00:05

NIP hire allu to make NIP great again!

2024-02-21 00:12

Remove Alex and then we can start talking about a proper rebuild

2024-02-21 01:51

nIP = trash team

2024-02-21 06:46

Aleksib was the problem

2024-02-21 06:48

NiP going back to Sweeden lineup keep alex for IGL rez , isak , nawwk(if he want to come back) and brollan after loan to mouz end

2024-02-21 10:08

No chance nawwk goes back to NIP. I even think he stated he wont. Doubt brollan will go back either, way bigger chance he signs with mouz and why wouldn't he?

2024-02-21 10:10

Every swedish pro should boycott this horrible org

2024-02-21 13:08

Now this is heading towards the right direction. Alex is still a question mark for me but keeping rez is the only option from the previous line up

2024-02-21 12:27

so... NiP Rez Brollan Twist nawwk Plopski SK.swe Olof Forest GTR Dennis Xzit team9/esu Lekr0 Hampus Draken FREDDyFROG KRIMZ Eyeballers/Begrip/Stockholm Magnetik Plessen Relaxa Freddieb Bååten disco doplan
