Official: Liquid bench oSee

21-11-2023 21:46

The American AWPer departs the active roster ahead of cadiaN's reported addition.

oSee is reportedly in talks with NRG

Liquid have moved Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm to the bench, leaving their active roster with just Keith "⁠NAF⁠" Markovic and Mareks "⁠YEKINDAR⁠" Gaļinskis left standing as the team overhauls their lineup heading into 2024.

NAF extends contract: "Liquid is taking the correct steps to build our team back to the top"

oSee may not be without a home for long, however, as he has been targeted by NRG for their new lineup. He would need to be bought out of his contract from Liquid for the move to come to fruition.

The 24-year-old was a part of Liquid for two years, making the jump to the team after a stellar period on Extra Salt where he stood out as NA's best AWPer. His impressive form didn't quite carry over to Liquid, however, although the team still managed a handful of deep playoff runs in events like IEM Cologne 2022, BLAST Fall Finals 2022, and IEM Katowice 2023.

His best placements with Liquid came in ESL Pro League Season 16 and BLAST Premier World Final 2022, where the team finished as runners-up to Vitality and G2, respectively.

The addition of Aleks "⁠Rainwaker⁠" Petrov and Robert "⁠Patsi⁠" Isyanov didn't help break that title duck, and the downturn in results has now led Liquid to overhaul their roster massively for the new year with the reported additions of Russel "⁠Twistzz⁠" Van Dulken, Casper "⁠cadiaN⁠" Møller, Felipe "⁠skullz⁠" Medeiros, and Wilton "⁠zews⁠" Prado.

2023-11-22 04:16

Yeah clearly they should've brought in that racist shitter that you love so much instead lmao

2023-11-21 23:05

wtf

Keeping osee as a rifler could be a good move imo

2023-11-22 00:10

why would they

when they should have kicked him they didn't, after he improved and had to play in dysfunctional team he gets kicked, seems unfair for him and i would say that he deserved to get kicked a while back

2023-11-22 00:05

calm down, osee should have been kicked the day he joined, he is by far the worst tier 1 awper

one is grand slam and major winner with multiple mvps and then there is osee

2023-11-22 09:50

Faze is the most stacked int team to ever exist in a era of stacked int teams and liquid was just NA. Not claiming broky bad or overrated but their teams aren’t comparable

2023-11-22 10:52

Does not matter, it is like saying barcelonas achievements dont matter, because the team had a lot of good players Osee had a chance to show off in terrible team where no one could frag, he just misses all the easy shots, i was a fan of liquid and watched a lot of their matches. Osee cost them a lot

2023-11-22 11:11

I think broky is the most overhated AWPer in cs- is he the best? No, is he the worst? Far from it.

2023-11-24 01:37

0/8 There's no way that the liquid lineup rumored is going to be worse than the current one.

2023-11-21 23:14

+Cadian

Yessir. All we are missing now is the report. ya love to see it

2023-11-21 22:21

2023-11-22 00:31

W Finally

end of an era :(

minus osee when happy rn

inevitable NRG transfer incoming

It was inevitable as soon as the report hit, even more so now. Unfortunately

2023-11-22 00:11

Good for him and good for Liquid. GL at NRG

When an igl lets Osee play like Jt or Shake did he'll be a star

2023-11-21 21:49

+1 Yekis IGL try mabe destroyed osees Career

2023-11-21 22:05

osee sucked way before yekindar joined in fact osee was never good in liquid

2023-11-22 08:06

osee could be KennyS for a round and then troll the next 3 rounds in arrow missing easy shots.

2023-11-22 09:37

exactly

2023-11-22 09:49

Change title to parts away , it is not bench you still have time

He has been incredibly shit during the whole time and we he becomes less shit they bench him, still deserved, fucking fraud.

WHAT

Welcome liquid cooper

Would be an upgrade

2023-11-21 22:00

good choice

+s1mple ez every time play w/ Yekindar, 100% confirmed.

Rainwanker is out too right?

Supposed to be. I’m surprised he’s the last one standing of all the removals

2023-11-21 21:52

should be out soon

2023-11-21 21:58

Latest report stated they would rebuild around NAF & Yekindar

2023-11-21 22:29

hltv.org/news/37184/official-liquid-benc.. he is, don't know why he's still on the team's page

2023-11-21 23:00

hltv admins slacking

2023-11-21 23:27

Took them long enough

im not crying...

Promise me you wont cry

2023-11-22 06:06

bye

People say end of an era to literally anything that happens

truly an end of an era

2023-11-21 22:57

TikTok generation.

2023-11-22 00:55

perhaps this could be an end of an era where liquid sucks tho

2023-11-22 08:07

OiSee

Rip goatsee :(

Kirk died?

2023-11-21 23:18

NRG has the greatest opportunity now to take

It's finally happening

2023-11-21 21:57

Good. Based on long times of my watching his plays, I can say oSee sucks. Having one mvp performance every 100 games isn't tier 1 material. He needs to go back to developmental camp, wherever that may be. I guarantee you half of this dumpster website can play as good as oSee does.

We’re all Global here mens with 5k elo

+cadian upgrade

2023-11-21 21:59

It's happening

finally, get cerq/cadiaN

Cerq? Wtf you smokin

2023-11-22 04:57

cerq? might aswell just add 1 easy bot to the team

2023-11-22 08:08

+mHl or Cadian imo

2023-11-21 22:06

back to tier2 he goes

I will remember this date

this show us that u cant be a selfless player, u need to have an ego. Look at osee, dude is a good awper but yekindar came in and he let him take his space and play more passive, then less stats, lower confidence and in 1 year boom kicked

2023-11-21 22:08

Even with a good setup he took too long to adapt and be proficient. Honestly you can't blame Liquid for this one. But I agree that lately he had less space to shine.

2023-11-21 22:09

2023-11-21 22:10

osee sucked way before yekindar joined, he was way way way below awerage awper the day he joined tier 1 competition

2023-11-22 08:09

SIXER time

So it's pretty much confirmed that they're adding cadiaN lol. They're going to announce him after BLAST Fall Final. No Falcons cadiaN then. Falcons +Snappi +SunPayus confirmed?

Still could be degster to liquid

Bro why is rainwaker on their hltv lineup still

2023-11-21 22:15

yekindar naf degster rainwaker skullz you heard it here first

2023-11-21 22:58

there is a reason we here it here first, also the last time aswell

took them long enough

2023-11-21 22:25

This confirmed Cadian signing?

finally. Now mouz needs to kick another t2 bot awper stuck in t1 aka torzsi

2023-11-21 22:27

Torzsi has been really good since CS2? He only struggles against Faze

2023-11-21 22:39

Boooo

noSseee

2023-11-21 22:30

NRG wake up

2023-11-21 22:31

expected, tier2 sniper tbh, liquid want more mb +sh1ro mens))

2023-11-21 22:34

You say liquid want more. They don't want a overrated crybaby

2023-11-21 23:10

based

sh1ro will need a ingame translator

2023-11-22 08:10

OSEE IS BEST PLAYER NA

2023-11-21 22:36

Osee to NRG incoming

2023-11-21 22:44

2023-11-21 22:54

Yekindar about to bring in another one of his bot friends

too late, but finally

welcome cringyaN

2023-11-21 23:01

Finally they kick him, they should've done that 1 year ago If they did that, maybe liquid wouldn't be shit like they are rn.

2023-11-21 23:16

I’m sobbing uncontrollably rn

2023-11-21 23:19

+xantares top 1 ez

2023-11-21 23:29

Good luck in NRG oSee, he should get a another shot there. What about if the roster would be like this oSee Ethan Brehze Jks Stewie2k (IGL) Thoughts?

2023-11-21 23:30

Stewbot has been out of the scene for years and your first thought is putting him in the most meta and brain power intensive role?

2023-11-21 23:37

I think he could IGL for sure, the thing is that im not convinced if he wants to get back to compete, but looks solid, not sure if there a backup chance for kinda tier 1 IGL in NA with no team

2023-11-21 23:36

Ethan hasn't touched this game seriously in years, why would he be any good lmao. Besides, there's legitimately no point in him returning to begin with, he got the recognition he never properly got, it's meaningless for him to bother. He does still think about the past at times and is proud of it but that's just about it.

2023-11-22 00:16

I’ve never seen a player with skills at tier 2 max getting gassed up by everyone around him nearly as much

2023-11-21 23:32

Finally it happened, why they were waiting so long to kick this bot. He should be removed from team after 6 months since he joined. Now its time for Yekindar.
