[Hatsepsuta]

G2's campaign with TaZ standing in for huNter- ends with a group stage exit.
Ninjas in Pyjamas have secured a spot in the PGL Astana playoffs after winning a round five match against G2 in the Swiss group stage.

The Marco "⁠Snappi⁠" Pfeiffer-led side won the do-or-die series in two maps to ensure their first Big Event playoffs appearance in the tier-one debut with the new lineup after beating Virtus.pro and HOTU earlier in the tournament.

After a slow start to the new core, their climb up the ranks continues, with Ninjas in Pyjamas now sitting in a preliminary 24th place on the Global Valve Standings thanks to the G2 victory and securing a minimum $62,500 payout from PGL Astana.
