NaToSaphiX departed NIP Impact – rumours claim he will coach FaZe Academy

Coach of NIP's female Counter-Strike 2 squad Niels Christian "NaToSaphiX" Sillassen has departed the Swedish club. NIP officially announced this via its X social media account.

The 28-year-old Danish esports athlete has been coaching NIP Impact since March last year. Previously, he competed for HEROIC, Nordavind, Sprout and other teams. Over the course of his career as a CS pro player, Sillassen has earned $57,000 in prize money. He gained his first coaching experience in the NIP female roster.

Thus, under the guidance of NaToSaphiX, NIP Impact reached the finals of three tournaments, as well as placed 5th-6th at ESL Impact League Season 6 and 3rd-4th at ESL Impact League Season 7.

According to insider Vlad "harumi" Radvilovich, NaToSaphiX will take over as a coach of FaZe Academy, rumors about the opening of which appeared several days ago.
