Soon after XeqtR was kicked and Micheal ' ahl' Korduner plus Vesslan were picked up. After the event, a new NiP was formed consisting of HeatoN, Potti, MedioN, Hyb and XeqtR.

The two rival teams faced each other in Amsterdam for CPL Holland 2001, where both teams reached the finals of the tournament. A sudden split of the team that spread the top NiP players across two rival teams followed. After winning major Babbages CPL tournament in Dallas, Texas, several players left and new players joined afterwards, most notably, Emil ' Heaton' Christensen and Jørgen ' XeqtR' Johannessen. Their first notable LAN event was at CPL Cologne in December, placing a respectable 4th despite having some players unable to attend and needing several replacements.

The early NiP clan changed several names at times and played in a multitude of offline LANs. Several wins in online and minor offline competitions and leagues ensured their reputation as the top Swedish clan. Over time, more players joined and NiP begins making their mark on the Swedish Counter-Strike scene. In June 2000, Tommy ' Potti' Ingemarsson and Christoffer ' Tootzi' Olsson founded NiP as a LAN-based clan.

World #5 Ax1le had 15 kills and just 6 deaths on the CT side to power Gambit to a third map with ease as they won 16-11. hampus did spoil the party with a smartly played-out 1v3 or Gambit may have run away with the half altogether.Īfter the initial CT hiccups that let Nip tie the score 10-10, Gambit turned the gears. They started on the T side and found good streaks of 3 and 4 rounds, to help themselves to 9 rounds. Vertigo is somewhat of a Gambit special as had been the case all through 2021 and they gave ample evidence of why it was so. Even when Gambit had the advantage, es3tag clutched it out for his side to shut gambit right back down. 2 odd rounds is all the Russians could muster as a 12 round CT hold, led by IGL hampus was more than what they could handle. But once the sides swapped, the Ninjas were on fire. Being the most CT-biased map, Gambit took 11 rounds on the defense as NiP were left with just scraps. Starting us off on Ancient, NiP continued with their woes on the T side and Gambit cashed in on it. MAP 1: Ancient ( NiP 16-13 Gambit) MAP 2: Vertigo ( NiP 11-16 Gambit) MAP 3: Overpass ( NiP 16-8 Gambit) NiP will face Virtus.pro tomorrow in the upper bracket while Gambit face Copenhagen Flames in an elimination game.

They then hammered Gambit on Overpass, a team that is arguably the best overpass team in recent memory. They picked up their pick of Ancient after an 11-4 comeback, then lost Vertigo, Gambit’s best map of the course. Playing with a phzy instead of star AWPer dev1ce, hopes from NiP were minimal but they showed everyone up by pulling off a huge upset in their opening game. Ninjas in Pyjamas started their IEM Katowice 2022 run with a win over reigning Champions Gambit.
