Team Liquid Finally Eliminate The Gaimin Gladiators, Securing Top 4 At The Elite League
After losing to the Gaimin Gladiators for pretty much the entirety of 2023, the Team Liquid squad is looking to start a new chapter this year, as they have successfully changed the story and eliminated dyrachyo and the team. After a convincing 2-0 victory, the Gladiators has been sent out of the tournament in 5-6th place.
In the first map of the series, the teams came out of the laning stage evenly, but Team Liquid started becoming the aggressors and took control of the game. They executed beautiful team fights and picked off Gaimin's heroes one by one. It was too difficult to crack high ground, so Team Liquid decided to slow down and farm the map. After a few rocky segments, Team Liquid still managed to close the game in 45 minutes.
The second map was a total stomp in favor of Team Liquid, who were hungry for revenge. Nisha on Keeper of the Light displayed a masterclass performance, destroying the early game and ending the map 9/0/15, a flawless performance. It only took Team Liquid 25 minutes to end the game, sending the Gaimin Gladiators packing.
The grind does not stop for Team Liquid, as they will immediately play another elimination match against Xtreme Gaming for a spot in the top three.
