Team Liquid is reportedly considering significant roster changes for the upcoming VCT EMEA Stage 1 in 2025. Following a disappointing performance at VCT Masters Bangkok 2025, where the team struggled to find consistency, management is exploring options to strengthen their lineup.
Maks "kamyk" Rychlewski, who joined Team Liquid in late 2024, has been moved to the bench. His departure opens up a spot in the active roster, and the organization is evaluating potential replacements to enhance their competitive edge.
Two prominent candidates have emerged as potential additions:
-
🇵🇱 Patryk "NINJA" Koczyba: A 19-year-old Polish player currently active with Team Liquid Academy. Known for his versatility and strong performances, NINJA has been making waves in the European VALORANT scene.
-
🇱🇻 Maikls "SerialKiller" Zdanovs: A Latvian player recognized for his aggressive playstyle and tactical acumen. SerialKiller has demonstrated consistent growth and adaptability, making him a strong contender for the position.
The final decision will be crucial for Team Liquid's aspirations in the upcoming stages of VCT, as they aim to reestablish themselves as a dominant force in the international VALORANT circuit.
As of now, Team Liquid roster stands as:
- 🇷🇺 Ayaz "nAts" Akhmetshin
- 🇬🇧 Georgio "Keiko" Sanassy
- 🇵🇱 Kamil "kamo" Frąckowiak
- 🇵🇱 Patryk "paTiTek" Fabrowski
