SyndereN removed from Ninjas in Pyjamas Dota 2 roster

Only two months after announcing its return to Dota 2, Ninjas in Pyjamas is now undergoing its first roster change by removing Troels “syndereN” Nielsen.

SyndereN, who played with the core of the current NiP roster for more than a year will no longer compete with the squad. To replace syndereN, it’s bringing on former Heroes of Newerth jungler Aydin “iNsania” Sarkohi.

The roster was unable to achieve any noteworthy results since being acquired by NiP. Their biggest success came about three months after forming, when they qualified for the International 6. Once in Seattle, however, the the team was eliminated from the $20.4 million event in last place. The team was unable to qualify for several large-scale Dota 2 events, including the Dota 2 Asia Championship and the Kiev Major.
