2015 Slump

Throughout 2015, Friberg received an overload of negative attention, as he struggled to keep up with the best players in the world, like Olofmeister or his own teammates, like GeT RiGhT. Friberg's 2015 rating was 0.96, with -220 kills (4788/5008, K/D).[17] With the NiP player's contracts were up for negotiations during the holiday season 2015, it was rumored that Friberg would retire,[18] but these rumors were quickly denied by the organisation.[19] In 2015 NiP severely struggled to win anything, with their only international win being ASUS ROG Winter in January 2015.

In October 2015, NiP in co-operation with Alvesta Glass released an ice cream in Friberg's honor, called "King Of Banana",[25] referring to his nickname as the "king" of a certain part on a CS:GO map (de_inferno) called "Banana".
