Ninjas in Pyjamas Replace ZTR with LNZ
Ninjas in Pyjamas have announced that Erik "ztr" Gustafsson will return to their youth squad, Young Ninjas. To replace him, the organization decided to promote Linus "LNZ" Holtäng from the youth to main roster.
17-years-old ztr has been playing for NiP’s main roster since February. With him the team lately managed to finish 3rd – 4th at ESL Pro League 13 and placed 2nd at the RMR-event FLASHPOINT 3. Despite decent results, the team decided to return ztr to the academy team for a time being to “give him time to develop further without the pressure of having to deliver on the highest level”.
Ninjas in Pyjamas currently view their roster as consisting of four core players and one slot filled by rotating members from Young Ninjas. In the upcoming IEM Summer (June 3rd – 13th) they will play with an 18-years-old LNZ, who joined their youth squad this February. There the team will compete in Group B, their first match against OG is scheduled for June 3rd, 2:30 PM UK time.
Ninjas in Pyjamas:
- Fredrik "REZ" Sterner
- Nicolas "Plopski" Gonzalez Zamora
- Nicolai "dev1ce" Reedtz
- Hampus "hampus" Poser (captain)
- Linus "LNZ" Holtäng
- Björn "THREAT" Pers (coach)
