Ninjas in Pajamas got the first victory at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022

The Ninjas in Pajamas team defeated Astralis with a score of 16:10 at the start of the group stage of BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022. Following the meeting, which took place on the Overpass map, the Swedish team made it to the final of the group A upper bracket, where they will play with Vitality. In turn, the Astralis team went to the lower bracket of their group, where they will meet with OG.

The second match of the group stage took place on the Overpass map. But if the starting advantage remained with the Danish team, then in the middle the Swedes managed to return to the game and slightly seize the initiative. As a result, Ninjas in Pajamas retained a comfortable advantage before switching sides, even though they ended the half on defense — 9:6.

The second half kicked off with a pistol series win for Astralis, which seemed to be the start of a comeback. However, here the Swedish team managed to wake up and unleash their attack in order to quickly break away from the opponent. In the end, Ninjas in Pajamas managed to close the meeting in their favor without any problems and made their debut at BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022 with a victory — 16:10.
