es3tag returns to NIP; hampus benched

Swedish club NIP has announced roster changes. As a result, Patrick "es3tag" Hansen returned to the team, replacing IGL Hampus "hampus" Poser.

es3tag has already competed for NIP from November 2021 to December 2022. Together with the team, the Danish player won Global Esports Tour Dubai 2022 and reached the semi-finals of ESL Pro League Season 15. However, the esports athlete spent the last 10 months on the bench, only competing once as a stand-in for FaZe at BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2023.

In turn, hampus only returned to the team’s starting five in the summer, replacing Aleksi “Aleksib” Virolainen. However, in three months the Swede fell short to improve NIP's results.

The next event for the team will be Roobet Cup 2023. The group stage of the competition will kick off tomorrow, October 25.

 NIP's current lineup is:

 Fredrik "⁠REZ⁠" Sterner
 Ludvig "⁠Brollan⁠" Brolin
 Daniil "⁠headtr1ck⁠" Valitov
 Kristian "⁠k0nfig⁠" Wienecke
 Patrick "es3tag" Hansen

 Daniel "⁠djL⁠" Narancic (coach)
