Team Liquid has officially bid farewell to Counter-Strike<\/a> coach Damian “\u2060daps\u2060” Steele, as confirmed by the organization.<\/p>\n

Daps, who joined the team in June 2022, played a pivotal role in guiding Liquid through a successful period, particularly after the acquisition of YEKINDAR bolstered the North American squad.<\/p>\n

However, the team’s fortunes took a downturn as they transitioned to a European lineup led by YEKINDAR, resulting in a lack of success and prompting Liquid to undergo another rebuilding phase.<\/p>\n

Alongside daps, the organization also parted ways with Robert “\u2060Patsi\u2060” Isyanov and moved Aleks “\u2060Rainwaker\u2060” Petrov to the bench.<\/p>\n

The restructuring process at Liquid is apparent, with reports suggesting that Felipe “\u2060skullz\u2060” Medeiros, Casper “\u2060cadiaN\u2060” M\u00f8ller, and Russel “\u2060Twistzz\u2060” Van Dulken are potential signings.<\/p>\n

As the roster undergoes significant changes, only Keith “\u2060NAF\u2060” Markovic and Mareks “\u2060YEKINDAR\u2060” Ga\u013cinskis are reportedly set to remain.<\/p>\n

In the wake of daps’ departure, the coaching reins are expected to be taken over by Wilton “\u2060zews\u2060” Prado, though an official announcement is yet to be made.<\/p>\n

Zews, a former coach for Liquid, is anticipated to make a return to the North American organization.<\/p>\n

Our time with @daps<\/a> comes to a close ahead of 2024.<\/p>\n

We appreciate his dedication to being the best we can be, getting our rosters on the same page and being the calm voice of reason out of the server. <\/p>\n

Thank you & best of luck in the future, Damian! pic.twitter.com\/IfONjjTbPL<\/a><\/p>\n
