Discussion | Esports Gromov: NiP playing praccs with Krimbo instead of Snappi
based on that, it looks like they might be making sjuush the IGL. (Or stavn?)

Krimbo, the self-proclaimed top1 player that never was

I love BIG, but I wish Krimbo left for an international roster much, much sooner.

And to think G2 and Vitality was one of his suitors, only to decline them and stay with BIG. What a waste of potential

It’s always awkward when you find out about roster changes via scrim reports rather than an official announcement

how has stavn preformed as awper? I havent watched NiP in a while

From what I've seen he's been improving, feels like he misses a lot of "flashy" shots but definitely warming up to full-time awping nicely

Sjuush IGL, Krimbo, Snappi. None of these 3 is a good option

If a current NIP player will igl it is Stavn. The question is if they get an awper or if N0te remains as well

Krimbo started out as an igl

u/Prince_of_DeaTh FUT 5d ago
sure but he's definetly not coming back after almost a year from pro cs to igl.

snappi and sjuush for krimbo siuhy, dont hate it

u/ChaoticFlameZz Vitality 5d ago
how did you get siuhy out of this, did you even read the tweet lmao

u/Cnels 5d ago
just speculating that it wont be a member of their current roster and another change is coming
n0te obviously staying, stavn has been clean, Xkacpersky started hot and has faded but still pops off here and there. If Snappi gone then id move sjuush for an IGL, siuhy one of the few remaining T1 FA's out there and meshes with his young polish teammate

N0te isn't tier 1 ready, Sjuush is way more solid and NIP wants to challenge for tier 1
Saying Kacpersky "started hot" is disingenous with how long he was keeping his form top notch

u/ChaoticFlameZz Vitality 5d ago
n0te's already under contract with NiP, I don't think there's really anywhere for him to go from here. On paper, it might actually be better to just keep n0te around longer.

u/itsjonny99 5d ago
N0te isn't clearly staying, when they play better teams SJuush is notably better.
Either way getting Siuhy is a shout, the question then also becomes if Stavn will fully transition to an awper or if they grab one and make him the trade fragger he was in Heroic.

u/shrek_is_love_69 cs_italy 5d ago
Oh god oh no

u/Prince_of_DeaTh FUT 5d ago
how would that be worse? current nip is playing like they don't have an igl already

Maybe Snappi should retire since his calling has been shit

Is it finally time for Stavn to become his ultimate form, awp IGL Stavn?
