CSGO pro Friberg explains why NiP CEO hate \u2018is unjustified\u2019 Twitter: FribergCS \/ ChahineHichamCounter-Strike: Global Offensive pro Adam \u2018friberg\u2019 Friberg became the latest ex-Ninjas in Pyjamas player to give his opinion about the organization after it was accused of player mistreatment. Friberg is a veteran Counter-Strike player who rose to fame with the legendary NiP squad that dominated the early days of CS:GO. He left the organization in 2017 and still plays at a high level, representing Heroic. NiP was accused of player mistreatment in July 2019 by ex-player Robin \u2018Fifflaren\u2019 Johansson, and has since been a point of controversy in the CS:GO scene. Other professional players also accused the organization and an investigation was launched in August. After a period of silence from other NiP members, Friberg has come out to share his experience with the Swedish company. The ex-NiP player spoke about his experience with the team during a stream on September 4, giving fans a small rundown of how things went over the years. He spoke in-depth about current CEO Hicham Chahine, telling his viewers: \u201cWhen Hacham took over in 2016, NiP got a lot better. I don\u2019t think the hate he\u2019s getting is justified.\u201d \u201cBut then he found a loophole in my contract that meant he didn\u2019t have to pay my prize winnings, and that hurt a lot\u201d added Friberg. The player was hurt by Hicham\u2019s actions but made it clear to viewers that even with that, it was better than before. He recalled 2014-2015 as the worst period, claiming \u201cmanagement wise and everything else, it was awful.\u201d Friberg then gave an example, saying that the management at the time used his brand for a \u201cking of banana ice cream promotion\u201d which he \u201cdidn\u2019t see a penny from\u201d and felt that they had ripped him off. Later in the stream, the Swedish player gave his overall opinion of the organization, stating that \u201cNiP wouldn\u2019t be where they are without me and the rest of the CS:GO team. We built NiP to what it is today\u2026 and it felt like they didn\u2019t care about me or what I had done for NiP at all. It felt like a huge punch in the stomach.\u201d He finished off by saying he had moved past it and that\u2019s the reason he wasn\u2019t keen to share his story. \u201cI was young, I didn\u2019t sign good contracts. It sucks, but I have to move on\u201d said friberg, and he advised his fans to always pay attention to contracts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
