Ninjas In Pyjamas Announce New 'VALORANT' Roster

More teams are solidifying professional "VALORANT" rosters as the Ignition Series continues to help shape the future of the game. Riot Games' tactical shooter is labeled as the next big esport, and organizations are already making plans to capitalize on it.

As one of the most renowned esports brands in the world, it's no surprise to see Ninjas in Pyjamas (NiP) joining "VALORANT."

Captain Enzo "Fearoth" Mestari will be joined by Emir "RHYME" Muminovic, Niels "luckeRRR" Jasiek, Charles "CREA" Beauvois, and Damien "HyP" Souville to create "one of the most promising lineups in the world."

Jonas Gundersen, COO at Ninjas in Pyjamas, stated in the team's blog: "Our ambition has and always will be to field a top-tier lineup - our faith in the VALORANT scene and Riot's plans for it remains strong and we'll stop at nothing to get to the top spot."

Gundersen continued: "It's become clear that CS:GO experience is a strong predictor of VALORANT performance, and adding the spice of the highest level of Overwatch competition through HyP makes for a really strong foundation. This squad has an extremely high skill ceiling, has already proven itself competitively, and fits very well into our vision for team chemistry and esports performance. I couldn't be happier."
