Liquid strengthens roster, mithR signed on as head coach

Liquid has announced the signing of former Apeks coach, Torbjørn "mithR" Nyborg, marking the first official addition as part of an off-season rebuild. Liquid unveiled the lineup for the fall BLAST Premier groups, where Roland "ultimate" Tomkowiak and Justin "jks" Savage are yet to present.

During the winter break, the team had already undergone a major rebuild, bringing in two-time Major winning coach, Wilton "zews" Prado. However, after poor results in the first half of 2024, including missing out on PGL Major Copenhagen, Liquid parted ways with zews in June.

Liquid's lineup is as follows:

• Russel "Twistzzz" Van Dulken
• Mareks "YEKINDAR" Gaļinskis
• Keith "NAF" Markovic
  
  
• Torbjørn "mithR" Nyborg (coach)
• Casper "cadiaN" Møller (on the bench)

Liquid's new coach, mithR, previously led Apeks and has experience with MOUZ and Renegades. Under his leadership, Apeks has been kept in the top 15 of the world rankings and placed at Elisa Masters Espoo and ESL Challenger Atlanta. Liquid noted that mithR's experience in IGL development will be an important skill, especially if Russel "Twistzzz" Van Dulken takes over the leadership role.

Rosters for BLAST Fall Groups confirm that ultimate and jks will replace Casper "cadiaN" Møller and Felipe "skullz" Medeirosa in the main roster. Mareks "YEKINDAR" Gaļinskis and Keith "NAF" Markovic will also remain in Liquid's revamped lineup.
