After Liquid’s previous CS2 superteam failed, the organization has now officially announced the replacements for cadiaN and skullz on the active roster. The headline news is the addition of jks, who is expected to bring much-needed firepower to tough spots on the Team Liquid CS2 roster. Let’s take a closer look at the latest developments!
Welcome back, jks!
After being unexpectedly benched last November, jks has been out of the competitive CS2 scene for some time. Nevertheless, Liquid’s decision to bring back the Australian rifler demonstrates their belief in his abilities, despite his period of inactivity. If he can replicate the impressive performances he showcased with G2, he could prove to be a valuable addition to the Team Liquid CS2 lineup.
But jks is not the only new face on the team. Liquid has also shown confidence in young AWP talent ultimate. Some may be unfamiliar with his name, as he has mainly competed against Tier 2 teams in the past year, with a notable stint at Illuminar. His ability to step up to the challenges of higher-level competition remains to be seen, making Team Liquid’s decision to add him a bold move.
Joining the roster is coach mithR, known for his time at Apeks, who will provide valuable support, particularly as Twistzz transitions into the IGL role. The composition of the Team Liquid CS2 roster also allows them to choose between the European and Americas RMRs for the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024, potentially simplifying their qualification process. However, recent events have shown that challenges are never far from Team Liquid CS2.
