Ninjas in Pyjamas coach Daniel djL Narancic commented on the successes of Daniil headtr1ck Valitov at the Tier-1 level. Narancic believes that the Ukrainian sniper has a bright future.
djL noted that Valitov demonstrates a high level of productivity and a desire to learn, and also easily responds to criticism. The NiP coach shared that the team is doing everything possible to make headtr1ck feel comfortable.
headtr1ck is like a sponge, he really wants to learn and I still think it is early days for him, he needs to fail and he needs to learn from his mistakes from the games he is playing. I think that in the future, he will be one of the strongest AWPers in the world. He is young, he grinds alot and it’s easy to talk to him about his mistakes. We’re still trying to make him as comfortable as possible.Daniel djL Narancic
