The team Ninjas in Pyjamas announced on their official social media accounts the signing of a new top laner — Fukeung "Solokill" Mak. Previously, he played for EDward Gaming in 2024, where he earned a reputation as a solid player with an aggressive laning style. This transfer is a significant step for NiP, who aim to strengthen their top lane ahead of the playoffs in LPL Split 2 2025.
Solokill's debut will take place in the upcoming match against Team WE , which will be an important test for the revamped roster. His mechanical skill could complement the team's overall strategy, which focuses on a fast-paced game and active inter-lane coordination.
Thus, the updated Ninjas in Pyjamas roster looks like this:
Leave
Aki
Solokill (new top laner, replacing shanji )
PPGOD
Doinb
NiP has ambitions to reach the playoffs and improve on their previous split's results, and Solokill could be the missing piece of the puzzle to help achieve these goals. However, it's important to remember that the player hasn't had competitive practice for about six months, so the initial matches might be challenging.
