Team Liquid has completed their ambitious roster overhaul for the upcoming Counter-Strike season with the announcement of Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken’s return.

This follows the recent additions of Casper “CadiaN” Moller, Wilton “zews” Prado, and Felipe “skullz” Medeiros.

The team’s revamp aims to bring in international talent and compete for trophies in the upcoming season.

CadiaN will take on the in-game leader (IGL) role, relieving Mareks “?YEKINDAR?” Ga?inskis to focus on a more prominent ‘star’ role suited to his playstyle.

The Liquid roster now boasts a combination of Keith “?NAF?” Markovic, Twistzz and YEKINDAR, all internationally proven talents.

This marks Twistzz’ second stint with Team Liquid after a successful run from 2017 to 2021, where they dominated CS:GO in 2019 but fell short of a major victory.

Twistzz then joined FaZe Clan and achieved success, winning the PGL Major Antwerp 2022 and securing a second Intel Grand Slam.

With the new Liquid lineup, expectations are high for their performance in the upcoming season.

The team’s debut with the revamped roster is set for BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2024, starting on January 22nd, as they did not qualify for the BLAST Premier World Final.

The decision to rebuild the roster was strategic, aiming to strengthen the team for future competitions.

CadiaN’s addition as the IGL aims to address the team’s leadership vacuum, and his AWPing skills will fill the void left by Josh “oSee” Ohm’s benching.

Liquid’s management hopes that the inclusion of CadiaN, a successful Danish captain, along with the overall roster overhaul, will break the team’s offline title drought dating back to IEM Chicago 2019.

Twistzz’s return to Liquid has been highly anticipated since reports of a verbal agreement surfaced in October.

With the roster now complete, fans are eager to see how Team Liquid will perform in the upcoming events, especially given the team’s historical successes and the individual achievements of its players.

The upcoming PGL Major Copenhagen will be a key test for the new-look Team Liquid as they seek to establish themselves as a force in the Counter-Strike scene once again.

In a strategic move, FaZe Clan has successfully secured the talents of former MOUZ star David “frozen” ?er��ansky, filling the void left by Russel “?Twistzz?” Van Dulken in its Counter-Strike roster.

This transfer, facilitated by an agreement between FaZe and MOUZ to release frozen from his contract ahead of schedule, marks a significant change for both players and teams.

Frozen, a prominent Slovakian rifler, played a pivotal role in MOUZ’s success for over four and a half years, contributing to numerous triumphs, including two ESL Pro League victories.

His recent achievement with MOUZ was clinching the EPL Season 18 trophy in October, where he showcased his prowess with five consecutive playoff wins, notably defeating FaZe in the process and securing a decisive 3-0 victory against NAVI in the grand finals.

FaZe Clan, in unveiling their newest addition, briefly teased the return of Olof “olofmeister” Kajbjer Gustafsson, continuing the long-standing banter around benching and starting the Swedish legend.

However, the real announcement featured the acquisition of frozen, solidifying FaZe’s roster with a player who has consistently demonstrated top-tier rifling skills.

Frozen’s transition to FaZe reunites him with two former MOUZ teammates, Finn “karrigan” Andersen and Robin “ropz” Kool.

This trio, reminiscent of the successful MOUZ roster from 2019-2020, aims to build on FaZe’s recent victories, including triumphs at IEM Sydney, Thunderpick World Championship and the CS Asia Championships.

FaZe’s timing for the transfer aligns with the BLAST Premier World Final scheduled for December 13-17, presenting a swift debut opportunity for frozen with his new team.

As FaZe looks to maintain their winning momentum in the Counter-Strike 2 era, frozen’s experience and skill set are expected to play a crucial role in the team’s continued success.

FaZe Clan’s CS2 Roster

  • H?vard “?rain?” Nygaard
  • Finn “?karrigan?” Andersen
  • Helvijs “?broky?” Saukants
  • Robin “?ropz?” Kool
  • David “?frozen?” ?er��ansky

Vitality secured victory in the BLAST Premier Fall Final by defeating FaZe with a convincing 2-0 in the tournament decider at the Royal Arena.

This marked a remarkable debut for William “mezii” Merriman, who celebrated his first Counter-Strike trophy.

Despite FaZe aiming to extend their 18-match winning streak and clinch their fourth consecutive trophy, they delivered an uninspired performance, particularly on Vertigo, where Vitality dominated from the start.

Nuke saw a closer contest, but FaZe’s critical mistake at 11-11 proved costly.

Dan “apEX” Madesclaire expressed his pride in the team’s performance, emphasizing the intense collective effort in practice and individual skills.

The French tactician also highlighted Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut’s exceptional performance, earning him his 17th MVP award with a tournament-high 1.35 rating.

The series began with a surprise Vertigo pick from Vitality, a map they hadn’t played since IEM Cologne 2023.

Despite the lack of recent experience, Vitality showcased a strong understanding of the map, securing a 9-3 halftime lead.

FaZe struggled to recover, managing only one round on the map as Vitality dominated.

The momentum carried into Nuke, with Vitality taking a 3-0 lead after a clutch from mezii in the pistol round.

FaZe rallied with seven consecutive round wins, led by H?vard “rain” Nygaard, but Vitality closed the half at 7-5.

The second half featured key clutches from Vitality, including one from Lotan “Spinx” Giladi, securing an 11-9 lead.

Despite FaZe’s attempts at a comeback, Vitality reached series point with a decisive round, ultimately winning the match.

FaZe Clan’s flawless CS2 run came to an end at the hands of a resurgent Vitality roster.

Following a lackluster end to the Global Offensive era, FaZe had dominated CS2’s initial competitions, claiming titles at IEM Sydney, the Thunderpick World Championship, and the CS Asia Championship.

Twistzz’s reported move to Team Liquid raises questions about FaZe’s roster, especially with the impending merger with GameSquare.

Vitality, bolstered by the addition of Mezii, seems to be in top form as they head into the BLAST World Final and the first Major in CS2 history in March 2023.

Both Vitality and FaZe, if their core roster survives changes, are expected to be favourites in upcoming events, providing exciting matchups in late-2023 BLAST events and potentially meeting again in a grand final.

Twistzz calls out BLAST for poor treatment of players https://www.iikinesiology.com/twistzz-calls-out-blast-for-poor-treatment-of-players/ https://www.iikinesiology.com/twistzz-calls-out-blast-for-poor-treatment-of-players/#respond Fri, 09 Jun 2023 15:17:23 +0000 https://www.iikinesiology.com/?p=30796 FaZe Clan Counter-Strike player Russel "Twistzz" van Dulken slammed BLAST on Friday for its treatment of players.

FaZe Clan Counter-Strike player Russel “Twistzz” van Dulken slammed BLAST on Friday for its treatment of players.

The usually stoic player made his rounds on social media following FaZe Clan’s loss to Heroic in the BLAST Premier Spring Final 2023 quarterfinals on June 8. The teams faced off for a place in the tournament’s semi-finals which FaZe eventually lost 2-0.

In a series of tweets, Twistzz acknowledged his team’s shortcomings during the match, congratulated Heroic for their win, and went on to call out BLAST for the way the entire tournament was being handled.

Twistzz claimed that the Thursday game’s schedule, which ended just past midnight, put FaZe and Heroic in a terrible position.

“No excuses, that was a bad game by us in the end. Unfortunate we both have to play CS at this time, gg’s @heroicgg,” the player wrote.

“We’re athletes and try our best no matter the conditions, but to have a schedule that can put teams in this position is bullshit.”

The three matches that played out before the FaZe and Heroic match had extremely close time margins and lasted longer than was expected. This led to the last game of the day between Heroic and FaZe, which was only two maps, starting late in the evening and concluding just after midnight.

The CS:GO player also pointed out that if the preceding match between Cloud9 and Team Vitality had extended to a third map, they would have likely started their game much later.

“Imagine if C9 and vitality went 3 maps, our bo3 would start at 11pm most likely, Should be treated like humans first,” Twistzz added.

In response to a comment by a follower, Twistzz proposed that a second stream be introduced in situations like this. This will ensure that all games start and were concluded at the scheduled time.

Twistzz also pointed out that cases like this could pile up and lead to player burnout and that there were even more issues he could not publicly address.

“All of this stuff adds to burnout at the end of the day, there are more issues that I can’t say. Everything adds up eventually and I should have made these tweets earlier,” Twistzz concluded.

Despite losing to Heroic, FaZe Clan are not out of the BLAST Premier Spring Final 2023 yet. The team will face off against Team Vitality in the quarter-finals next for a chance to advance to the semi-finals.

Russel ��Twistzz�� Van Dulken, a pro gamer with FaZe Clan, has revealed that despite his role in an international Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team, he has no problem representing North America. ? ?

This year alone, the player has won four trophies, the fourth coming as a result of FaZe claiming victory over Natus Vincere in the just concluded 2022 IEM Cologne Finals. Reacting to his team��s victory, Twistzz took to his Twitter page to pen an emotional piece to the fans.

He wrote: ��So much emotion and I could never fit such expression into a single tweet, my team and I worked night and day endlessly to have this moment. Thank you to all the fans who supported through until the end, I tried writing a heart on this camera and failed so here it is.��

After bagging the award, the Canadian spoke concerning his nationality as well as the achievements of his team. ??Twistzz joined FaZe in January 2021 after leaving Team Liquid that same month. Despite the move and winning streak with his European teammates, the player revealed that he still viewed himself as a representative of North America. ?

?Speaking on the possibility of representing North America, Twistzz said, ��As long as NA wants me as a representative, I��ll proudly represent the North American scene. I do play for an EU team, but we all represent our own countries on this team, and that��s the best part.��?

?While on Team Liquid, Twistzz was among the team��s most notable players. His move to Europe from North America had a noticeable positive effect on his gameplay, so much so that post-move, he made the statement, ��I was struggling in only North America, and looking back now, I��m like, these players aren��t on my level.��? ?

The Canadian also highlighted his reasons for leaving Team Liquid. According to him, the decision was not made on a whim, and he actually had the intention of extending his contract and helping the team but was unable to for some reason.?

?In an earlier interview with Matthew ��Sadokist�� Trivett, Twistzz revealed that his group in Team Liquid started facing some trouble after Jason ��moses�� O��Toole was signed on as their new CS:GO coach. The change occurred in August 2020, in the middle of the online competitive phase.?

?The players on the team were reportedly not ready for that kind of change, and it affected their gameplay and teamwork. Several position changes were made; however, there was not much improvement, and Twistzz revealed that it started negatively affecting and restricting his gameplay.

He added that at the time, the team was unable to understand the reasons for the problem, but upon more inspection now, he realized that the reason for the issues was because ��people were stubborn��.? ?Twistzz eventually arranged a meeting with Liquid in October of that year and allegedly gave the franchise some conditions for extending his contract with them. He talked about their upcoming boot camp, claiming that if it went well, he would extend the contract.

However, the boot camp was Twistzz’s last one with Team Liquid. In the interview, the player referred to the experience as ��miserable�� and ��awkward��. That, he claimed, resulted in his eventual move to Europe to join FaZe Clan.? ?Twistzz is one of the small group of North American players to earn Major awards in CS:GO. The Canadian was with Team Liquid for more than three years before his journey to FaZe Clan. He won several notable trophies with the Netherlands-based franchise, such as the Intel Grand Slam season two. ? ?

The 22-year old is only a win away from securing the fourth season of the competition and has about six different opportunities to triumph. Twistzz revealed that while this is the team��s primary goal this season, achieving it would be a lot of work. FaZe will return to the gaming scene on August 19, 2022, with BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2022.
