The 22-year-old rifler Nikolaj “niko” Kristensen is announced to continue his loan spell for OG to include the ESL Pro League Season 13. The need for a stand-in comes after the benching of Nathan “NBK-” Schmitt. The change to bench “NBK-” was the first-ever change made to the OG roster and meant that a fifth and final member needed to be found.
.@OfficialnikoCS will also take part in our first ESL Pro League's match tonight against @BIGCLANgg.
Thanks again to @heroicgg for letting this happen.
See you at 19:00 CET.#DreamOG pic.twitter.com/1L1JtMeuUt

At this current moment of time “niko” has only joined on loan from Heroic, where he is currently benched, but rumors that a permanent contract is on the cards is rising as he seems a perfect fit for the OG side. You can read more about the decision to sign “niko” on a loan contract right here:

OG are going to be sporting “niko” in their line-up later today when they begin their ESL Pro League Season 13 campaign. In their opening series of Group A they will be going head to head against the German giants of BIG in an, undoubtedly, intense Bo3-series. The match is set to begin at 19.00 (CET).
