WE ARE NOW PART OF @TEAMLIQUID! ๐
Did you really think we'd break with @GullitR? Don't think so! โ
Still Team Gullit. Still Ruud.
But now, we're owned by the biggest (and coolest) esports team in the world.
ARE YOU READY TO JOIN THE JOURNEY?! ๐
A few years ago, if you had asked me for a dream signing that felt impossibleโฆ it would have been this.
Yesterday, we announced our entry into chess. Today, we team up with the legend himself @MagnusCarlsen ๐โ๏ธ
You want details? Fine. I drive a Ferrari, 355 Cabriolet. Whatโs up? I have a ridiculous house in the South Fork. I have every toy you could possibly imagine, and best of all, kids? I amโฆ @TeamLiquid
Grandmaster, four-time US Open Champion, perennial Candidate, and third highest rated player of all time.
Our expansion into chess is in great hands. Welcome to Team Liquid, @FabianoCaruana โ
You asked us to take a shot at a group of extremely talented players. We believed in you, and you in them
Since then, step by step we kept going on a path with a shared vision of how championship teams come together. Trust, loyalty, and dedication have been at the very foundation of this team
It has been five years of building this together. Thank you coach Blitz
We just took down the #1 ranked team in the world and all the casters can think to say is NaVi didn't show up.
We clawed our way back from 48th in the world by BUILDING a talent pipeline the whole scene memed on.
Step out of the echo chamber and pay attention.
