es3tag about the semi-final game against FaZe Clan: "We're not going to be the favorites of the public"
/es3tag, Ninjas in Pajamas player, commented on the upcoming semi-final matchup against FaZe Clan . According to the 26-year-old Dane, it will be difficult for his team to play in front of an audience at the Royal Arena as local fans will cheer against Ninjas in Pajamas due to some feud between Denmark and Sweden.
FaZe Clan performs very well in this tournament, but you have to remember that they haven't been playing so well lately. The team has clearly been able to improve their performance, so we have to seriously study it. I don't think fans will support NiP . I am Danish myself, but I know very well how much support karrigan enjoys in our country. Moreover, unlike me, he does not have three Swedes in the team. There is a small enmity between Denmark and Sweden. We are not going to be the darling of the public, and we have to fight against it, and we'll see how we manage to do it.
Recall that the day before, the Ninjas in Pajamas team beat NAVI with a score of 2:1 and reached the semi-finals of BLAST Premier: Fall Finals 2022. Here the Swedish team will meet with FaZe Clan, which finished the group stage without a single defeat.
