Liquid part ways with Patsi

18-11-2023 20:35

The move is reported to be the first of several changes amid a Liquid rebuild.

Patsi played just 42 maps with Liquid

Liquid have parted ways with Robert "⁠Patsi⁠" Isyanov in the first move of an expected rebuild. The organization are reportedly keeping just two players, in the form of Mareks "⁠YEKINDAR⁠" Gaļinskis and Keith "⁠NAF⁠" Markovic, from their current roster.

The Russian entry fragger joined Liquid from Spirit in June, and was signed to co-exist with then in-game leader YEKINDAR as twin ultra-aggressive spacetakers.

However, Patsi failed to recapture the form that earned him a nomination for Rookie of the Year in 2022. After a 1.13 rating last year, he sports a 1.02 for 2023, and just a 1.00 on LAN in Liquid's colors.

Media: Liquid set to sign Twistzz

Liquid are reportedly signing Russel "⁠Twistzz⁠" Van Dulken, Casper "⁠cadiaN⁠" Møller, and Felipe "⁠skullz⁠" Medeiros in an ambitious rebuild under the stewardship of Wilton "⁠zews⁠" Prado.

That news was followed by reports that current AWPer Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm is the subject of interest from NRG, while possible destinations for Aleks "⁠Rainwaker⁠" Petrov or Patsi remain unclear.

With more changes expected, Liquid are now:

Keith "⁠NAF⁠" Markovic
Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm
Mareks "⁠YEKINDAR⁠" Gaļinskis
Aleks "⁠Rainwaker⁠" Petrov

Damian "⁠daps⁠" Steele (coach)

It was daps's idea. This entire half-assed EU venture was entirely his idea to begin with.

2023-11-19 02:01

We know that now but at the time I’m pretty sure it was made as a temporary announcement

2023-11-19 09:15

known for their legendary dutch teams too ;) liquid has had an NA core for like 9 years, there are no real NA teams out there, go be NA again

2023-11-19 10:08

Those are just simple employees, peasant if I may...

2023-11-19 10:09

Says the brit... How fnatic's core doing these days?

2023-11-19 20:06

not really interested tbh, I think it's a bit weird to follow a team because you're from the same country as them I'm a fallen fanboy ngl, when I started watching luminosity went from outside the top 10 to the best team in the world I'd love to see furia do well with Fallen as IGL, don't think it'll happen tho

2023-11-20 06:40

HQed in LA and majority owned by another LA org. Regardless, teams based in NA should be NA. FTFY.

2023-11-19 21:05

Yeah, and this Dutch organisation has carried NACS for closing in on 10years Even when every other org left and/or went to Euro squads, they stayed And now TL shift their base to Europe and get in some young Euro talent and the Seppos go apeshit and wait for it's downfall As if the move isn't now paying off with the potential for the return of Twistzz and inclusion of Camedian. Due to their base now being Europe. No respect for what they've done or doing.

2023-11-20 04:50

Would love to see Cadian take the 4 best NA players to a title. Problem is Elige floppy and grim area all in complexity. Elige Floppy Grim NAF Cadian That team has potential, shame its just a fantasy

Why did you leave out Twistzz?

2023-11-25 08:31

good point, idk how I left out twistzz I'd have him over NAF or Grim

2023-11-25 12:37

It's half Dutch American not full American nor full Dutch but it always been NA for CS

2023-11-20 17:45

Fair enough.

2023-11-19 17:40

+cadian incoming

rip osee

Tier 2 player

2023-11-18 20:41

Its coming

Patsi is only 20yo. He can upgrade many CIS teams. Maybe go to 1WIN to get his confidence back?

best option

2023-11-18 21:02

I'd brong him to us for Mir or Norbert

2023-11-18 21:31

Mir is doing pretty well and norbert its james beloved support.

2023-11-18 21:47

Nah Vp roster is fine for now

2023-11-19 05:38

C9 might need him, he will be an upgrade for any CIS team rn

2023-11-19 03:24

C9? doubt so lol. C9 needs an awper nothing more

yea, they kinda rushed on signing Boombl4, Patsi is 10x the entry he is

2023-11-19 17:07

But boombl4 is brought to be igl in the near future. Hobb0t is gone. He is old and washed now

2023-11-19 17:14

i doubt they will use boom as IGL, he wasn't even igling in 1win i hope they just signed him on a short contract until the end of the year, if they plan keeping him long-term they won't win shit

2023-11-19 17:56

Was'nt boomich bought to be an IGL ? Hobbit still IGLing ?? Makes no sense if that's the case

2023-11-19 20:24

Boom wasn't the IGL initially but then took over the Captaincy at 1WIN, so yes he was the IGL at 1WIN

2023-11-20 09:40

Hopefully he finds a spot on another team. I think he would be an excellent entry fragger target for OG.

rainwaker is officially benched, dudes, get him out of the team's page hltv.org/news/37184/official-liquid-benc..

Ripsi

2023-11-18 20:43

it's happening

2023-11-18 20:45

G2???

2023-11-18 20:46

2023-11-18 20:47

and now it begins... also on a side note how did patsi fall off so badly

to be fair, he wasnt *that* good at any point lol hltv.org/stats/players/19673/patsi?start.. his absolute best form, and he only had a 1.07 rating vs top 20 teams

2023-11-18 20:51

But as an entry fragger this is good

2023-11-18 20:58

its definitely decent, i just dont think he was as good as some people remember

True

2023-11-19 12:59

good move, no point having him in the roster when you have yekindar

2023-11-18 20:48

nais

2023-11-18 20:49

took long enough, skullz when?

2023-11-18 20:50

got the bag and left: W he would do good in betboom

true, kairon about to get dropped again?

2023-11-18 20:52

would probably try his hand at going international instead unless he wants to go to a bookie org

2023-11-18 20:55

Change kairons roles and drop danitzz

2023-11-19 07:11

certified BUM

Rainwaker still on team

2023-11-18 20:59

2023-11-18 21:08

'The move is reported to be the first of several changes amid a Liquid rebuild' should be: 'The move is reported to be the first of several changes amid a Liquid 99th rebuild'

2023-11-18 21:03

Twistzz noo

2023-11-18 21:05

Finally can support liquid

2023-11-18 21:07

2023-11-20 11:53

F Sad day for young talent

2023-11-18 21:09

good luck

nowhere for him to go now unless he wants to play for a bookie org or go international again

2023-11-18 21:27

Good luck patsi

2023-11-18 21:25

unlucko

2023-11-18 21:38

Took long enough

2023-11-18 22:16

Liquid with yekindar igl was doomed. Idk wtf twistzz wants to join this team.

2023-11-18 22:20

He's already toured the world and won everything. Might be as simple as just wanting to live closer to home while still collecting a fat paycheck.

2023-11-19 00:33

is that why hes consistently the 4th best player on faze the last 3 tournaments they won, i sure hope he doesnt play like that on liquid or else they got scammed big league.

2023-11-19 00:53

Faze gets 1 million transfer fee for russ, he ends up being shit, liquid kick him in the end of the year or even during summer break, he joins back eventually when rain retires, profit?

2023-11-19 01:16

Liquid will still likely have there team based in Europe even if it is an Americas core Twistzz is on record as wanting to stay in Europe and likely Cadian is the same NAF and YEKI would also be happy with that arrangements as NAF GF lives there and YEKI never made the move the NA

2023-11-20 09:47

ez, -bot

2023-11-18 22:52

just disband atp. yekindar shouldnt be IGL.

2023-11-18 22:54

That’s why Cadian is coming

2023-11-18 23:13

Swear this already happened

2023-11-18 23:53

I always felt that Patsi was a little too hyped up while at Spirit but he honestly wasn’t far off what he would or should have done in T1. He wasn’t horrible but because Liquid bought him expecting a Yekindar clone they now look stupid crying about his results and selling him. Patsi will do good on a BetBoom or maybe even another big team as long as they know what they’re buying isn’t an HLTV top 20 player like Liquid somehow thought

2023-11-19 00:02

Patsi lived off that major semifinal, i mean he was never the big thing before or after that, he was just your average t1.5 entry fragger

2023-11-19 03:53

wait what? so this mofo was sittin on the bench collecting payecheck ALL THIS TIME while theyve decided to overhaul the roster and had no tourneys for the remainder of the year? wow

2023-11-19 00:52

we probably wont even see this roster until the RMR, I don't think they'll be able to get invited by the ESL World Rankings unless they luck out somehow lmao

2023-11-19 01:06

+1 yeah... and probably won't have enough Valve ranking points to get to closed rmr qualifiers, so likely open qualifiers

2023-11-19 04:05

gonna be hella funny tho tbh, Liquid's proposed roster of misfits aka cadiaN, skullz, Twistzz, NAF, and YEKINDAR needing to blast through dozens of unfortunate noobs in order to make it to the RMR lmao.

2023-11-19 04:08

Reminds me of the saga between Astralis and los kogutos

Rainwaker is yekindar friend confirme. Yekindar shouldn’t leave Jame, even if he winning more money. First it’s the glory then the money. And he have the talent to do it. But not as CEO of liquid
