Team Liquid Wins First Tournament In Four Years - Elite League Season 2 Champions
Despite being considered one of the best teams in the world for several years, the Team Liquid organization has finally won its first trophy in over four years.
Nisha, in particular, had been so close to winning events since his time in Team Secret, but never won a trophy in a long time until today. This is the second trophy the Team Liquid core of miCKe, iNSaNiA, and Boxi has ever won.
Team Liquid could defeat 1win in the Grand Final of Elite League Season 2 in a tight 3-2 series to claim the first-place prize of a trophy and $240,000. However, it is worth noting that there weren’t too many notable participants in this tournament.
The 1win team’s coach also claimed that his players were affected by food poisoning the night before the Grand Final, but still congratulated Team Liquid for winning the series:
“I am sincerely proud of my team. In every sense, the guys overcame themselves and fought with all their might. Yesterday, two of our players got poisoned and vomited all night until the morning. With a fever, throwing up pills, they went to fight against Liquid. But even with such debuffs, they showed their teeth and turned out to be a great final for the spectators. Congratulations to Liquid on their first trophy, and we are going to get ready for a difficult journey."
Overall, the Grand Final series was quite entertaining. The series went the distance, and there was a lot of action in the last three games. In this battle of attrition, Team Liquid could win the final map in 49 minutes after a spectacular performance from Nisha’s Ember Spirit, who went 14/2/16.
From this tournament, we can conclude that the 1win squad is a serious competitor we should look out for in future tournaments. For Team Liquid will this victory light the fire to perform well at The International 2024?
