There’s no way around it: Clash Royale has changed and will keep changing.This means Team Liquid has to adjust as well. In response to the recent changes made to the CRL, we’ll be scaling back our involvement in the Clash Royale League - and in competitive Clash Royale as a whole - in 2021. This was a tough decision to make but a necessary one given the new landscape the CRL will take on this year. Don’t worry, we’re still going to be a part of the Clash Royale community

Yeon: spelled Y-e-o-n, it’s pronounced like the word “yawn.”Like an opening, a term you reserve for epic-style writing - yawning abysses, maws, entrances, and exits. All that drama.Alternatively: Like the thing you do when you’ve finished a long day of work.Fittingly, Yeon is also the tag of a very young, very talented carry built out of North America’s increasing interest in infrastructure. He comes as the most subtle piece of a 5 man amateur exodia that formed under the 100 Thieves banner. Formed up by Papasmithy and Kelsey Moser and

On November 18th, 2020 Robin “Juggleguy” Harn received a letter that every tournament and event organizer in the Smash world dreads: The cease and desist. Nintendo issued a cease and desist letter that demanded his upcoming tournament, The Big House Online, shut down. This would be the first time in nine straight years that the Smash Major would not run.They issued the cease and desist because the tournament used mods and ISO copies of the game vital to playing online competitively. While it’s theoretically possible to fight the cease and

Ten years.That’s how long I’ve been with Team Liquid. Thinking about it now, that’s a third of my life. My life has gone through countless changes during that time. I moved to Korea (and back), competed at Blizzcon, recovered from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, become a coach, and even married the love of my life. Through all these ups, downs, and adventures, Team Liquid has been a constant.Team Liquid became a second family to me, with my friends and teammates always there if I needed them. Those are the relationships that

2017 was a huge year for Team Liquid. As an organization, we didn’t just dodge relegations twice, we also submitted our application to become a franchised partner in the LCS. And honestly, League was only a part of what made that year huge. The day we survived relegations, we were also hours apart from winning the biggest esports tournament in the world. I was at the LCS studio for relegations — but I was also watching The International from my phone. We were crawling back from the lower bracket to

[embedded content]View at 8:00When Team Liquid’s new strategic coach Jonas “Kold” Anderson first came to NA, it was as a player named Trashy. After a surprise 3-0 loss on H2K during the EU LCS promotion tournament, Kold would sign with NME, to help them qualify for the NA LCS. Before then, he’d have to actually make it from the gaming house to the airport.He stood at the airport waiting for his ride to arrive, totally alone in a foreign country. After calling the management several times and not getting an
