Snappi as NIP Go 0-2 at EPL: "We Are 2 Different Teams in Practice and Official"
Snappi’s Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) opened ESL Pro League Season 23 with two straight losses, falling 0‑2 to Legacy and M80. The team’s recent roster change—replacing Michel “ewjerkz” Pinto with Artem “cairne” Mushynskyi—has not halted a slide to 34th in the global rankings. Poor map results, especially on Anubis and Dust2, left NIP scrambling for a win against M80, which they secured only on Ancient. Snappi warned on X that the practice‑official disparity must be solved quickly or the squad will miss the upcoming Major.
