Team Liquid Rumored to Add Koosta to Counter-Strike Roster
Reports have been circulating about a potential new addition to the Team Liquid Counter-Strike roster. A recent Breitbart article claimed that Kenneth “Koosta” Suen may be replacing Eric “adreN” Hoag as the main AWP player. This rumor gained traction when Liquid player Spencer “Hiko” Martin tweeted that Suen would be playing in tonight’s ESL ESEA pro League matches against Cloud9.

Yesterday, Team Liquid’s director of esports, Robin Nymann, denied reports of a deal with Suen. In an interview with The Score Esports, Nymann confirmed that they have been trying out Suen, but no agreement has been reached with his current organization, Enemy Esports.
If Suen does join Team Liquid, it would be the second major roster change for them in recent weeks. Aleksandr “S1mple” Kostylev recently joined the team, replacing Jacob “Fugly” Medina. Many experts believe Kostylev’s addition will greatly benefit the team.
Suen has garnered attention for his exceptional performances with Enemy. He consistently challenges some of the best players in North America and has been the standout player on his team. His performance at the MLG America Minor Championship in January showcased his talent, with 149 kills across six maps.
Team Liquid and Cloud9 will face off tonight in two best-of-one matches on Dust2 and Train. Cloud9 currently has a 2-0 record, while Team Liquid has struggled with a 1-3 record. Both teams are expected to compete for top spots this season, making this grudge match crucial.
