André “palestra” Gomes, the coach of Team Liquid inclusive roster, has announced a temporary break in his career following the conclusion of the current season. This statement was made on Sunday, October 13, after the finals of the third stage of Game Changers Brasil 2024, where MIBR secured the title and a spot at the 2024 championship.
In his post on X (formerly Twitter), palestra noted:

André is temporarily stepping away from the inclusive scene while remaining the most successful coach in this discipline in Brazil. With Team Liquid, he has won eight championships, including six stages of Game Changers Brasil, and has been with the team at two Game Changers Championships in 2022 and 2023.
