Ninjas in Pyjamas

Ninjas in Pyjamas is a Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) team from Sweden, in Europe. The organization was founded in 2000. Its in-game leader is Krimbo, and the team has competed in events including ESL Pro League Season 20, BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2024, and the Thunderpick World Championship 2026. The team's roster has changed often in recent years. Early 2025 brought several releases and demotions, including the departures of alex, k0nfig, and JACKZ, and the demotion of MisteM to the Young Ninjas academy team. Later in 2025 and into 2026, the lineup was reshaped through a series of loans, benchings, and signings, including xKacpersky, cairne, r1nkle, and stavn. DuDe joined first as an analyst in October 2025 and was later promoted to assistant coach in April 2026, alongside Xizt on the coaching staff. The team's notable tournament titles are the 2001 CPL Winter Championship, won with a 2-0 final win over Xtreme 3, and ESL One: Cologne 2014, won with a 2-1 final win over Fnatic. The most recent entries show the roster still in place rather than disbanded. In September 2026, the team acquired Krimbo on loan from BIG until the end of the year and benched n0te in favor of adamb, who was acquired from OG. Snappi, benched in late August, was later acquired by HEROIC. On that basis, the current setup centers on Krimbo as IGL and adamb as a recent addition, supported by coaches Xizt and DuDe.
