The Challenging Summer for Team Liquid
Team Liquid has faced a tumultuous summer. The League of Legends team has encountered various issues, prompting drastic action from the coaching staff and management. As we reach the halfway point of the season, fans and analysts are questioning the team’s true potential.
Losses and Changes
In week four, Team Liquid faced the absence of star top laner Alphari. To make matters worse, their starting jungler Santorin had to take time off due to ongoing headaches and migraines. This was also the first week without their original head coach, Jatt, who decided to step down from his position.
With two Academy players subbing in and a new interim head coach, the future of one of North America’s best teams is uncertain.
Supporting Teammates and Coping with Changes
AD carry Edward “Tactical” Ra prioritizes the well-being of his teammates during this challenging situation. His focus is ensuring their health and not putting pressure on the sidelined players. Tactical sends messages to his teammates, keeping them updated with everything happening.
Jatt’s departure from the coaching staff is particularly tough for Tactical, as they both started their LCS journey around the same time. Jatt took the time to talk to each player individually before leaving, emphasizing his care for the team.
Tactical’s Perspective
Tactical describes Jatt as a nice person to be around and appreciates his enthusiasm for the game. Looking ahead, Tactical and the team remain focused on their ultimate goal: winning a championship and securing a spot in the 2021 World Championship.
The team is gathering together, playing their game, and taking things one step at a time. CoreJJ’s support helps keep them focused on the present without getting caught up in the past or future.
Room to Grow
Despite the challenges, Team Liquid still has many games left to regain their momentum. With a tied third-place position and a positive record, they have a good chance of making a comeback. The hope is to see the original roster reunited for the postseason.
