NiP are the fifth team to be confirmed for EPICENTER, joining the likes of Natus Vincere, Liquid and mousesports.

Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg and co. are the first team outside of the current top eight to be confirmed at eight-team EPICENTER 2018, with their invite following that of mousesports and the announcement that current number one team, Astralis, is pulling out due to a congested schedule.


The Swedes received an invitation for the $300,000 event today
NiP's recent offline results include a 9-11th finish at the Major and a 3rd place at BLAST Pro Series Istanbul. They skipped StarSeries i-League S6 and have only been playing online recently, but haven't been in great shape, winning only one out of ten maps played in ECS and ESL Pro League.
