Ninjas in Pyjamas Announced Their Latest Transfer!

Ninjas in Pyjamas announced that they have signed 21-year-old Adam “ec1s” Eccles. Former Team Liquid captain ec1s will serve as the team’s in-game leader. Ninjas in Pyjamas will try to replace Kévin “Ex6TenZ” Droolans, one of the veterans, with the transfer of Adam “ec1s” Eccles. It has been rumored that Kévin “Ex6TenZ” Droolans has recently suffered an injury and will be out of the scene for a while. While Kévin “Ex6TenZ” Droolans focuses on recovery, team coach Emil “eMIL” Sandgreen will also help the team shine.

Adam “ec1s” Eccles made the following statement in his statement after the transfer:

“It’s a great feeling and an honor to be joining NIP: an organization that I’ve watched since I was a little kid many years ago. Seeing their legendary CS:GO rosters winning events, I always aspired to get there one day.

Our roster is bursting with talent, experience, and has the right mixture to be the best. Our upcoming boot camp in Serbia is a great opportunity to meet everyone and kick start off our journey together! I’m pumped.”

Long story short. Due to a period of injuries, Kévin “Ex6TenZ” Droolans has to take a break and will be moved off the roster for now. He will be focusing on recovering but also assisting eMIL in his coaching.

Coach Emil “eMIL” Sandgreen is Overjoyed

Ninjas in Pajamas team coach Emil “eMIL” Sandgren commented after ec1s joined the team:

“We’re overjoyed that we managed to sign ec1s. He’s ice-cold in all situations and a very good individually skilled IGL who merges with the guys effortlessly. It’s a tall task to take over as an IGL mid-tournament, but his calm nature is exactly what we need right now. What happened to Kevin is unfortunate, but I’m glad that he stays and works with me for the time being, making use of all the experience he possesses.”

Ninjas in Pyjamas last competed in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2021: Europe Stage 3 Challengers 1 tournament and said their farewells to the tournament with losses in the last 16. After the unsuccessful result, we will see what Ninjas in Pyjamas can do with this new transfer.
