NiP bestätigt Interesse an einem League of Legends Team

Vor wenigen Stunden berichteten wir über einen möglichen Wechsel des Teams „Sinners Never Sleep“ zu den Ninjas in Pyjamas. Wie uns NiP Manager Niklas Fischier nun in einem Statement mitteilte, steht zwar das besagte Team nicht zur Debatte, das Interesse an einem LoL-Team sei aber definitiv vorhanden. So schaue man sich derzeit nach einem passenden Lineup um und hätte auch bereits zwei bis drei interessante Kandidaten zur Auswahl. Auf einen genauen Zeitpunkt für eine Neuverpflichtung wollte sich Fischier aber nicht festlegen. Man wolle nichts überstürzen und bei der Auswahl der Spieler ähnlich behutsam vorgehen, wie man dies bereits beim CS:GO-Team erfolgreich praktiziert hat.

Statement Niklas ‚Fiskoo‘ Fischier gegenüber escene.de

Even tho it’s not completely untrue that we indeed are on the hunt for a LoL team for the future, we are not in negotiations with Sinners atm. We are still looking and investigating. This is a complex process of course for us. We want a line up for the future and that makes team chemistry more important than recent wins for example. We want potential and chemistry. So we need more time atm. We see that there are two or more teams that would fit our wishes. But we will not rush in to anything just to get a representation in LoL. We put so much time and effort in building the CS team and we would like to use the same formula when choosing LoL team if possible. NiP is a family now, so chemistry is key.

Update: Statement Joe ‚InnerFlame‘ Elouassi, Team Manager von Sinners Never Sleep

I am glad to hear that NiP are looking to expand into League of Legends and I am rather suprised to hear this statement, I only know that NiP are looking into LoL and it is already a honor to know that they know of us. I am also surpised to hear the possibility of even taking my team as we haven’t even qualified for LCS yet. Infact, I’m extremely proud of my lads to hear that my team were even considered by a great organisation like NiP. I wish them the best of luck finding a team to join their family because a great organisation like NiP deserves to have a great team.
