Team Liquid Targets siuhy and mithR

Team Liquid is considering signing Kamil “siuhy” Szkaradek and coach Torbjørn “mithR” Nyborg to strengthen their Counter-Strike 2 roster.

Searching for a New In-Game Leader

After Casper “cadiaN” Møller’s departure in June 2024, the in-game leader role was passed to Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken. However, his leadership has faced criticism. Former team coach Wilton “zews” Prado stated that Twistzz is not suited for the captain role and suggested replacing him with siuhy, known for his tactical approach and success with MOUZ. 

Possible Changes to the Coaching Staff

Torbjørn “mithR” Nyborg previously coached Apeks, leading them to second-place finishes at Elisa Masters Espoo 2023 and ESL Challenger Atlanta 2023. If he joins Team Liquid, it could mean the departure of current coach Damian “daps” Steele, who has held the position since June 2022. Under his leadership, the team has not secured major titles but has reached the finals of several prestigious tournaments. 

Current Team Liquid Roster:

  • Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken
  • Keith “NAF” Markovic
  • Justin “jks” Savage
  • Roland “ultimate” Tomkowiak
  • Aleks “Rainwaker” Petrov (benched)

The potential addition of siuhy and mithR could significantly reshape the team’s dynamics, offering new tactical approaches and leadership. However, Team Liquid has yet to make an official statement regarding these changes.
