Liquid and CLG have just announced that they have traded players Josh “jdm64” Marzano and Kenneth “Koosta” Suen, effective immediately. Earlier today a report from ESPN stated that Liquid would be announcing Jacob “Pimp” Winneche as the permanent replacement for Eric “adreN” Hoag. That move has not been confirmed by the organization as of yet. The team will however undergo a different change, which sees Kenneth “koosta” Suen and Josh “jdm64” Marzano trade places in Liquid and CLG.
jdm64 and koosta trade places in CLG and Liquid Liquid have had a string of unsatisfying results over the past few weeks, most notably last place in ELEAGUE and a 5th-6th placing at ESL Pro League Season 3 Finals. Ever since grabbing a Legends spot at MLG Columbus 2016, CLG have also been unable to find significant success, which saw them remove Jacob “FugLy” Medina from the roster last month. Both lineups have been confirmed for ESL One Cologne, including Faruk “pita” Pita, who was initially announced to play for the duration of ELEAGUE. CLG’s five is following:

Liquid now have the following lineup:Stephen “reltuC” Cutler
James “hazed” Cobb
Tarik “tarik” Celik
Faruk “pita” Pita
Kenneth “koosta” Suen
Spencer “Hiko” Martin
Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski
Nick “nitr0” Cannella
Josh “jdm64” Marzano
