es3tag sits on the bench NiP

The Swedish eSports organization Ninjas in Pajamas has announced the transfer of es3tag to the bench. In addition, the club revealed that the now 27-year-old Dane may be considering options to continue his career elsewhere in 2023.

Patrick was a fantastic teammate, colleague and player for NiP. We can't say anything bad about him and we are sure that he will be successful next year.

Patrick "es3tag" Hansen, 27, became a NiP player in November 2021. As a support Rifleman, the Dane played over 20 tournaments of various calibers for NiP.

Together with the Swedish esports giant, es3tag became the champion of the Global Esports Tour Dubai 2022 and Svenska Cupen 2022, but the Danish player's efforts were not enough at larger tournaments. Together with NiP, es3tag failed the Intel Extreme Masters Rio Major 2022, taking the TOP-16 at the Brazilian Major.

The last event for es3tag as an active NiP player was BLAST Premier: Fall Finals. At the tournament in Copenhagen, Ninjas in Pajamas took TOP-4, losing to FaZe Clan in the semifinals.
