Ninjas in Pajamas have introduced their new sniper, the 19-year-old Ukrainian talent Artem "r1nkle" Moroz who arrives from team B8.
R1nkle started his playing career in 2020, and from September 2021 he plays for B8, where he spent two and a half years. He will replace compatriot Danilo "headtr1ck" Valitov, who spent a little over a year in NiP, but despite coming as a big reinforcement, he failed to achieve any notable success with the team.
R1nkle drew attention to himself last year, but remained in the B8 team until now. He made a successful debut for NiP today in a victory against Monte in the first round of the ESL Jonkoping closed qualifiers, and finished the match as the player with the most frags on the server with a 1.31 rating.
Ninjas now have only one vacant spot left in the starting five, and the first team now consists of:
Fredrik "REZ" Sterner
Alejandro "alex" Massanet
Max "maxster" Jansson
Artem "r1nkle" Moroz
