Patrick "es3tag" Hansen has finalized a move to NIP recently and would be reuniting with Nicolai "device" Reedtz. Es3tag is replacing Linus "LNZ" Holtäng in the roster, the player moved from their academy team Young Ninjas to the big leagues six months ago. NIP would hand es3tag a debut at the upcoming BLAST Premier Fall Final which is scheduled on November 24-28 in Copenhagen.
NIP is allowed to make changes on their roster and participate in the tournament as the lowest-seeded team. The former Complexity player would be joining the Swedish side after being put on the transfer list for the past two weeks. The 25-year-old has represented Astralis, Cloud9, and Complexity in the past and now adds NIP to the list.
