Kamo also grinding omen Astra in ranked.
only to go back to playing duelist eventually lol
But I guess that implies that they're getting a flex player to replace Wayne, sounds like Sevire to me (and he's british and Liquid have never spent a year without a british player on the team)
Theres also a nonzero chance they get an acad guy like wanzeru or kicks. Maybe they also go for spear if EF prefers comeback
comeback
Some account on X leaked BBL are selecting him in place of lovers rock and spear is getting promoted to ef
I have seen it all. Comeback was rumoured for both teams. Its unclear who ends up where at this stage. We will see.
Comeback is pbb going to BBL so I doubt that's a thing (Spear has also never been a flex in the first place), but kicks is a pretty good shout, makes a lot of sense roles wise
Well he played viper + senti. Now with duelist thats kinda flexy but more of a keiko alfa variety than the traditional ini priority on flex roles.
If other players on the team are flexible one can easily shift things around to always work
But Liquid don't need that, they either have a guy play perma 2nd duelist (which spear can do but would be a bad idea in general imo) or a flex who can olay some duelist and init which makes more sense post 13.00. They can't afford to have a guy whose roles conflict with Nats, they would be too restricted comps wise
Thats very true. They do however have a history of forcing people on suboptimal player roles in the past with kamyk and serial. They could just be hoping to make a firepower upgrade since they do not have the players to win trophies
Wayne has been quite poor so far. In kickoff he had some decent fragging games at least now he is just not good. Decision making and discipline very lacking
I think he's forced to play very passive due to EMEA style of playing, he would do better in APAC for sure
Best decision imo. Who even uses that shitty origin vandal in the big 2026
I feel like they are getting kicks for ini role and moving purpo or kamo to the smokes role
If its kicks than purpo must be flex. He was poor on smokes in the past. But he seems strongest on sova/fade/skye to me
Berlin impressed, hoping to see Proxh or Leare, unless ofc they're doing kamo smokes
Then I think they'll get Kicks until GSR is old enough to play and then sub in GSR
True but I can imagine them slotting Kicks in and then praying they can coast a Champs slot and put GSR into the main roster and hope that revitalises the team into going on a run
Wait I just checked he can still play towards the end of stage 2, he turns 18 on the 9th of August and stage 2 runs until 30th of August
Idk there's a lot of good players in EMEA atm. as is Wayne it's a shame really cuz of the visa first then him just not fitting well on Liquid
Astra in ranked.
Words that should never be uttered ever... Unless you're goated with the sauce on her in which case do whatever
