Team Liquid has officially announced the acquisition of Brazilian rifler Felipe “skullz” Medeiros, marking a significant first step in the organization’s ambitious roster rebuild.
Skullz joins Team Liquid after an impressive 15-month tenure with paiN, where he not only emerged as the team’s standout player but also proved his mettle in international arenas. Boasting an average rating of 1.16 over 251 maps, skullz maintained remarkable consistency, both offline (1.17 rating) and against top-tier competition (1.18 rating against top 10 opponents over eight maps). His stellar performance at the BLAST.tv Paris Major, where he averaged a 1.41 rating over seven maps, further cemented his status as one of Brazil’s most promising talents.
Skullz’s escalating profile attracted significant interest, most notably from Fluxo, who reportedly entered negotiations for a $600,000 buyout with paiN. However, upon being approached by Team Liquid, skullz expressed a preference to continue negotiations with the Dutch organization, ultimately leading to his current signing.
With the addition of skullz, Team Liquid is poised to make a significant impact in the competitive scene. The roster now includes:
- Keith “NAF” Markovic (Canada)
- Mareks “YEKINDAR” Gaļinskis (Latvia)
- Felipe “skullz” Medeiros (Brazil)
The expected arrival of Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken, Casper “cadiaN” Møller, and coach Wilton “zews” Prado will further bolster the team’s lineup, making Liquid a formidable contender in upcoming tournaments.
Skullz’s signing is more than just a boost to Liquid’s firepower; it also strategically positions the team to compete in the Americas for the PGL Copenhagen Major.
