HeatoN Calls it Quits - Changes in NiP

Today is a memorable day for all Counter-Strike fans as one of, if not the, most famous player Emil "HeatoN" Christensen has decided to call it quits.



This rumor has been circling around various websites and forums for several weeks now, and HeatoN will no longer be playing for the NiP team but instead work full time as coach and various other stuff in the NiP organisation.
The younger brother of walle, miniw has also decided to quit playing actively, to focus more on his real life. So far NiP have only announced one new member, the former Begrip player GeT_RiGhT.
The rumors about him playing under fakenick during the NGL ONE qualifier have also been discovered by the NGL admins who today announced the disqualification of NiP. Instead the third place finisher yourname from Denmark will be playing in the prestigeous online league next season.
As the Swedish WCG finals takes place this weekend, NiP have decided to pick up another ex Begrip player - azl, as stand-in for the team. This could be another indication on NiP's plans to recruit the Norweigan player REAL from MYM.
To sum this up, NiP now consists of: Dennis "walle" Wallenberg
Kristoffer "Tentpole" Nordlund
Johan "face" Klasson
Christopher "GeT_RiGhT" Alesund
Max "azl" Höög (Stand-in)
Emil "HeatoN" Christensen (Coach)
