NRG look to overpower the opposition at IEM Sydney
ESL have announced that NRG is the second North American invite to the third edition of their IEM event in Sydney.
NRG are no stranger to IEM Sydney, having attended the event last year, where they went out in 9th-12th place following a loss to the G2 lineup featuring Oscar "mixwell" Cañellas in place of Richard "shox" Papillon.
IEM Sydney will also be NRG's first IEM event following their disastrous performance at IEM Katowice, which saw them drop out in the New Legends stage 0-3 following losses to Ninjas in Pyjamas, AVANGAR, and compLexity.
With NRG's addition, the list of teams attending IEM Sydney is currently:
FaZe | Liquid |
MIBR | mousesports |
Ninjas in Pyjamas | NRG |
Renegades | BIG |
TBD |
With this invite, April is set to be a busy month away from home for NRG as they are also slated to compete in Shanghai at StarSeries i-League Season 7 three weeks before Sydney.
