Forest explains his reasons for Leaving NIP

Patrick “f0rest” Lindberg has decided to leave the NIP lineup

Patrick “f0rest” Lindberg has decided to leave Ninjas in Pyjamas’ counter strike team. One of the OG players of the NIP squad. He has decided to leave the squad to join the new Dignitas squad. Addressing his departure, he released the following statement: “I hope you will join me for one more time to fight for the top. I wish [my old teammates] the best, you are all great guys with a lot of drive and talent! I had an amazing time with you guys.”

A storied career

Patrick was part of a team which really cemented itself during the era of valve majors. He has spent his entire career with NIP. During which time he racked up 32,153 kills, a 1.19 K/D ratio, and 76.3 damage per round. In a career which started in 2012, this marks the longest period a player has stayed with a single team.

For Dignitas, this move shows their intention to form a championship-worthy team.

“As a fan of Counter-Strike for nearly two decades, I’ve always viewed GeT_RiGhT, Xizt, friberg, f0rest and Fifflaren as the epitome of professionalism and competitiveness,” Dignitas’ Heather “Sapphire” Gorozzo recounted.

“From the U.S., to Brazil, to France to Australia, to Denmark among countless other places, I’ve witnessed first hand how adored and respected these players are across the globe,” she continued.  “When the opportunity came to bring these legends into our organization, I knew it was the best move for DIG, the perfect opportunity for the players to reunite under management that is deeply passionate about their careers and a pivotal moment for the CS:GO community.
