On its official Twitter, Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) officially announced the successful recruitment of Adam “EC1S” ECCles to fill the position of Kevin “Ex6Tenz” Droolans being injured. The former captain of the Liquid team will be NIP's new In-Game Leader and will participate in the official team of the team attending VCT: EU STAGE 3 Challengers 2.
Meanwhile, Ex6Tenz was transferred to the assistant coach for Emil “Emil” Sandgreen. This is considered an important change of NIP when EC1S is a experienced name in FPS games even only 20 years old. After switching to Valorant, EC1S has joined Fish123 before joining the Liquid team from August 2020.
After only 6 months of attachment, the player in 2000 helped the Liquid team in the second at the Red Bull Home Ground tournament. However, with the reform plan of Team Liquid, the British star has become a free player from May 2021. Now, after 2 months of rest, EC1S will return to the professional arena and promise to blow a new wind into the Nip team.
“It is great to join NIP, this is the team that I have watched for many years when I was a child. Witnessing the CS: GO squad ascended the throne in the tournament, I always yearn to one day I will be like that. Our current Valorant squad is a combination of experience and talented players to be able to aim to become the strongest team,” Trang Trang, “Trang,” Dot eSports quote EC1S.
In the European Valorant arena, NIP is not a team that is too strong if placed on the scale with teams Liquid, Funplus Phoenix, Fnatic or even Acend. At VCT: EU STAGE 2 Challengers 1, Nip must stop from the semi -final after the defeat against the Esports Guild. However, the story in Stage 3 will probably be different when the teams are trying to give a ticket to the Masters 3 and beyond the Worlds took place later this year.
