On the victory at ESL One: Cologne 2019
That was a long time ago; it’s been seven years already. During that time, I’ve played with different teammates and seen a lot of faces. I can describe it as an interesting experience, but there’s nothing more to say.
On Team Liquid’s ups and downs
We’ve had more setbacks than good performances. But, of course, we’re working hard, trying to find our best form—all of us, both in and out of the game. It’s tough, a lot of hard work, but we’re trying to do everything we can. We don’t want to let anyone down. I’ve been through this before. So we’re moving forward, and hopefully we’ll find our groove.
Earlier, Team Liquid exited the IEM Cologne Major 2026 after losing the decisive match in the first stage of the tournament. Kamil “siuhy” Skaradek’s team lost to FlyQuest. Team Liquid finished the first map, Anubis, with a crushing score of 2-13, and Inferno with 7-13.
