Flashpoint confirms forced rematch - Now postpones it!
The event organizers have confirmed that NiP and Anonymo are going to play a rematch
Due to controversial conditions in their latest matchup, it has been discussed whether or not a rematch between Ninjas in Pyjamas and Anonymo was fair. Anonymo, alongside, many other players and experts in the professional Counter-Strike scene have stated that a rematch would be unfair to Anonymo and should not be forced upon them.
However, the event organizers confirmed that a rematch between the two rosters will in fact take place. The rematch was at first set to take place Sunday 16 May at 21:00 CEST. Anonymo was left with the choice of either replaying the full Bo3-series or just the last map in a Bo1.
Shortly after their official statement regarding the rematch, however, Flashpoint has announced that the rematch is going to be postponed to a later date. The decision comes after outrage from the Counter-Strike community.
