CS:GO pro Twistzz leaves Team Liquid after three years
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive player Russel 'Twistzz' van Dulken revealed he is parting ways with Team Liquid in a surprise announcement. He broke the news while being interviewed after the culmination of the Intel Extreme Masters Season XV Global Challenge, which Team Liquid came runner-up in.
Twistzz, 21, joined Team Liquid in 2017 and has enjoyed much success in his three and a half years playing Counter-Strike with the team. He helped the organisation win eight major CS:GO tournaments, including the one million dollar Intel Grand Slam Season 2 prize for being the first team to win four out of ten S-Tier tournaments in a season.
Team Liquid lost 3-0 to Astralis in the final this time around, but it's Twistzz's announcement that has stolen the headlines. "I've enjoyed all the support over the years," he says in the post-match interview. "The org's been nothing but family to me, and I hope that I'm back next year in a new home."
