Bwipo Finds Success in Team Liquid

Gabriël “Bwipo” Rau, the Belgian player who left Fnatic in the offseason, celebrated his first victory under the Team Liquid banner. Making his North American debut last month, Bwipo is off to a strong start with his new team.

Bwipo Discusses His Perspective and Growth as a Pro Player

Following Team Liquid’s win, Bwipo opened up about his experience within the team and his personal journey as a professional player in an interview with Nerd Street’s Xander Torres. Bwipo emphasized the importance of age when entering the professional gaming scene, as this is a period of significant personal growth and responsibility.

Finding Balance and Support

Bwipo believes that players should prioritize self-care and value their lives outside of the game. He emphasized the importance of finding energy and motivation to keep going. With Team Liquid, Bwipo feels supported and empowered to be himself, striving to become a better person.

Despite his move to Team Liquid, Bwipo holds no negative feelings towards his former team, Fnatic, understanding the difference between positive reinforcement and mere acceptance.

Setting Sights on International Success

Bwipo aims to establish himself as one of the best top laners in the Western gaming scene and compete with some of the world’s finest players. However, before venturing into international competitions, Bwipo and Team Liquid will focus on the upcoming LCS Spring Split, where they will face defending champions 100 Thieves on Friday, Feb. 4.
