NIP official statement: Rifleman ewjerkz has been relegated to the bench.


NIP's CS2 division officially announced on Thursday that Portuguese player Michel Pinto (ID: ewjerkz) has been officially relegated to the bench.


The 25-year-old ewjerkz previously played rifler on Rhyno, For The Win, and SAW. In January 2025, he joined NIP along with his compatriot and teammate Rafael Win (ID: arrozdoce). To date, he has played 224 maps and participated in 4841 rounds for NIP, with an average rating of 1.08.


For NIP, ewjerkz's performance in the international squad has not met expectations. Since Kacper Gabala (ID: xKacpersky) joined on loan from ENCE in July, his tactical role in the team has clearly diminished.


With ewjerkz relegated to the bench, NIP's current roster is projected to be as follows:


Commander/Breaker: Marco Fever (ID: Snappi)

Support: Rasmus Baker (ID: sjuush)

Sniper: Artem Moroz (ID: r1nkle)

Rifleman: Kacper Gabala (ID: xKacpersky)

Coach: Richard Lanstrom (ID: Xizt)

Substitute: Michel Pinto (ID: ewjerkz)
