draken bænkes: NiP henter Lekr0 i fnatic
En stor overraskelse er lige landet fra mægtige Ninjas in Pyjamas, der efter deres kvartfinale-exit ved StarSeries i sidste weekend, har valgt at bænke draken. Ind på holdet kommer i stedet Lekr0.
Lekr0 blev for to uger siden bænket i fnatic, da man hentede den tidligere NiP-spiller, Xizt, ind på holdet. Det blev dog en kort periode på bænken for Lekr0, der nu skal tørne ud for NiP.
NiP består nu af:
Lekr0 udtaler følgende til NiPs hjemmeside:
It has been something I have been wanting to do at some point in my career. I’ve been thinking a lot about my future and what kind of player and teammate I want to be, so I’m really excited to be able to learn from the legends and to show a new self with great motivation in a large team like this.
Det svenske mandskabs coach, pita, var også glad for at have hentet Lekr0 ind på holdet:
William is a young player with an incredible talent. Counter-Strike is not all about talent however, as the game is heavily based on all players taking on their individual roles in the team, both inside and outside of the game. We could unfortunately not find the right mix with William at the moment which has led us to the decision of benching him for the time being. We are hoping to see him back in competitive play in the future. In his place, we are extremely happy to have found an equally talented replacement in Lekr0.
Lekr0s første event med Ninjas in Pyjamas bliver CS:GO Asia Championship i Shanghai, hvor de skal op imod mandskaber som Natus Vincere, Virtus.pro og Heroic.
