zews joins Liquid

The speculations regarding zews being picked up by Liquid have been confirmed, as the Brazilian tactician joined the North American squad in Montreal for Northern Arena and will be coaching them in their upcoming match versus G2.

Liquid's pickup of Wilton "⁠zews⁠" Prado has been confirmed as the ex-Immortals players and ex-SK coach joined the North American team at Northern Arena, where Spencer "⁠Hiko⁠" Martin and co. are about to play their elimination match versus G2.


zews will return to coaching in Liquid

Liquid is yet to make an official statement, which should reveal more details on the relationship between zews and the team, but is expected to do so soon.

UPDATE: The Co-CEO and Owner of LiquidLiQuiD112—revealed that zews will be coaching the team at Nothern Arena and IEM Oakland, with everything after that yet to be decided.

Liquid is now:

United States Nick "⁠nitr0⁠" Cannella
United States Spencer "⁠Hiko⁠" Martin
United States Jonathan "⁠EliGE⁠" Jablonowski
United States Josh "⁠jdm64⁠" Marzano
Denmark Jacob "⁠Pimp⁠" Winneche

You think he'll be able to fit the shoes of peacemaker? I swore up and down that no one would be able to replace peacemaker, but this is the guy who coached SK. I wonder if he'll at least be equal to peacemaker

He has at least the same potential as peacemaker, he has a lot to bring for the team coming from such a successful team/lineup like SK. In 1 or 2 months liquid will definitely be a different and much better team, but they still need a decent igl with these new coaching rules valve made His coaching style is great and fallen always said that he was really important for the synchrony they had

Maybe as a Brazil / SK fan, you can say that but I in no way can see that. He did so much for Liquid. He created a Liquid era (only for Liquid, not some world domination era like SK) where it didn't hurt all that much to be a Liquid fan. Probably the only time I cried watching a member leave Liquid, and I've seen many come and go.

i'm not a SK fan. And it amazes me that you guys have a good opinion on peacemaker, I really didn't expect. Zews is really good as coach you'll see, he brings dynamic tactics, that might be useful when something isn't going right. However as some people already stated, Liquid still needs an IGL
2016-11-11 23:34

zews has all the knowledge from SK, if he can apply, at least, half of that on liquid, they can be a top 10 team MAYBE top 5. He couldn't do much for IMT bc he was playing, as a coach he and starix are the best available right now.

What's the best in the world right now? VP? VP sometimes against SK after the second major of this year, but they couldn't do shit against Na'Vi and Dignitas. They can't be the best team in the world if they can't win any tournaments. Na'Vi won ESL New York and failed to qualify for ESL PLS4 playoffs. Dignitas? Bullshit. Cloud 9? They can't be the best team in the world because they won a single tournament. SK didn't win a tournament since cologne, but at least they are making to the top 3/4 or top 1/2 everytime. There isn't a best team in the world right now. We're living a era where every top 10 team or top 5 team can beat each other.

Zews is a so so coach. He is good analyzing but bad at team control... The thing is USA dont have veterans to the position...so Zews become somehow one of the bests from americas avaible. Dont know if hell help Liquid since this team lacks IGL AND team control.

Because i did not followed the scene at 1.6 time since the game sucks. It was embarassing to watch and one of the reasons of the lack of money that time. 1.6 was bad to the scene man! Almoust killed the game! This is how i knew the scene was DUMB! Another thing is i do NOT reconize players that attend 1.6 competitions as 1.6 players! 1.6 player is the player that was playing CS WHEN 1.6 was released. So, they are all 1.5 players...if not, it is a fraud
