Background

EliGE first joined Team Liquid back in 2015 and remained with the roster for eight years, playing a key role in winning ESL One Cologne 2019—the team's only major title during that period.

In the summer of 2023, he left the club for a change of scenery with Complexity, where he spent about two years and then joined FaZe for 7 months, from where he returns to Liquid. Despite some bright individual moments, significant team success was elusive. The return symbolizes not just nostalgia but a new phase in the player's career.

Return Details

The official announcement from Liquid was made on the organization's social media under the headline: "He's coming home". EliGE himself noted that the return feels like a new home, yet the environment is painfully familiar.

Super happy to be with the new squad Team Liquid and even with limited time, I have so much confidence in this squad and really excited to show our stuff! 😁🔥🔥

LETS GET COOKIN!!

EliGE

The current Liquid roster after his comeback looks like this:

• Keith " NAF " Markovic
• Roland "ultimate" Tomkowiak
• Guy "NertZ" Iluz
• Kamil "siuhy" Szkaradek
• Jonathan "EliGE" Jablonowski
• Viktor "flashie" Tamás Bea (coach)

EliGE's return is not only an emotional moment for fans but also a strategically significant move for Team Liquid . The synergy of a veteran and young players could provide the team with the missing leadership and confidence.
