NIP Impact coach in search for new team

Coach of NIP female Counter-Strike 2 roster Niels Christian "NaToSaphiX" Sillassen announced that he is looking for a new team. He wrote about this via his X social media account, adding that his contract with the Swedish club expires on December 31 of this year.

I absolutely love coaching and am therefore looking for a project that can allow me to focus more of my time on improving players and creating a healthy team environment.

During my time in NIP, I have been treated exceptionally well and have been very happy with the progress of all the talented players I've worked with.

If no fulltime opportunity presents itself, I will do everything in my power to continue building on what is a very promising future for the girls and I!

The 28-year-old Danish esports athlete has been coaching NIP Impact since March of this year. Previously, he competed for HEROIC, Nordavind, Sprout and other clubs. 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.

Under tNaToSaphiX's guidance, NIP Impact reached the finals of three tournaments, and also competed at ESL Impact League Season 6 Finals, where they placed 5th-6th. As of now, the team occupies 205th place in HLTV ranking.
