Ninjas in Pyjamas, an updated roster led by Snappi, face off against the surging NRG, who arrive in Hungary on a nine-match win streak but forced to play with daps as a stand-in for nitr0. The Bo1 format leaves no room for mistakes \u2014 a single misplay can derail an entire Major run. And exclusively for us, CS legend shox shared his thoughts on this matchup.<\/p>\n<h3>Current Form &amp; Context<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/G6S8Es7XwAAXtrh?format=jpg&amp;name=large\" alt=\"We believe in our GOAT, daps!\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ninjas in Pyjamas<\/strong> enter the Major as a \u201cdark horse\u201d, but they possess a set of individual tools that matter specifically in Bo1 scenarios. Their recent results are mixed: a positive win over NiP Legends, but losses to SAW, HEROIC and NAVI revealed old structural issues \u2014 lack of tempo control and over-reliance on xKacepersky in clutch moments. Despite this, NiP compensate with big-stage experience. Snappi and sjuush have played dozens of playoffs, while ewjerkz and r1nkle have finally gained the necessary Tier-1 resilience. Shox emphasised this point:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>I will pick NiP because they have more experienced players who already played a lot of Majors. NRG can surprise, but NiP know how to handle pressure.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n<p>His assessment matches the state of the team: NiP may not look flashier, but they look more reliable in a tense Bo1 environment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NRG<\/strong> enter the match in spectacular form. Sonic is delivering one of the best three-month stretches of his career (1.22 rating, 89+ ADR), br0 and Jeorge perform consistently in their roles, and XotiC has finally rediscovered the AWP confidence that once made him a top prospect. But the major complication is unavoidable: daps replaces nitr0 due to personal commitments. This brings:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">different early-round roles,<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">weaker clutch capacity,<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">reduced mid-round aggression on T-side.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>NRG remain dangerous, but losing their IGL in a Bo1 is a serious blow. Even shox pointed this out:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"custom-bq\"><div class=\"custom-bq-q\"><p>NRG can maybe surprise some teams, but NiP players got better experience. They have to win it.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <h3>read more<\/h3>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/prediction-for-parivision-vs-the-huns-starladder-budapest-major-2025\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Jame_at_StarLadder_StarSeries_Fall_2025.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Prediction for PARIVISION vs The Huns \u2014 StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Stage 1\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/prediction-for-parivision-vs-the-huns-starladder-budapest-major-2025\">Prediction for PARIVISION vs The Huns \u2014 StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Stage 1<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/prediction-for-parivision-vs-the-huns-starladder-budapest-major-2025\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1776557338#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1776557338#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1776557338#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Nov 23 2025<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Road to the Major<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Ninjas in Pyjamas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>NiP arrive after a run of mixed performances:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Win vs NiP Legends (2\u20131)<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Losses to SAW, HEROIC, NAVI<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Strong CT structure in several games, but frequent issues dealing with high-tempo opponents<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>NiP\u2019s biggest weakness is inconsistent early rounds, while their strength is clear: veteran composure on LAN.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">NRG<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>NRG enter Budapest with:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"article-list-pink\">\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">9 consecutive wins,<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Important victories over M80, SAW, Reign Above,<\/li>\n<li class=\"article-list-pink__item\">Explosive tempo and top-tier form from Sonic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Their only setback: losing nitr0.
