After more than a year away from Team Liquid and CS:GO, Nicholas “nitr0” Cannella is finally back in the organization today after months of intrigue.
Nitr0 returns to his longtime teammates Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski and Keith “NAF” Markovic. NA AWPer Joshua “oSee” Ohm and Vitality Richard “shox” and legendary French veteran Papillon round out the rest of the list.
During his time at VALORANT, nitr0 was a pivotal riffler/control agent player for the 100T, helping them win the North American First Strike event and leading their deep run to the semifinals of VCT Masters Three Berlin. He played alongside a team of well-known former NA CS:GO stars like Ethan, steel and former Liquid player Hiko.
The return of Nitr0 and the reorganization of the Team Liquid roster preceded a period when many fans expected and hoped for a revival of NA Counter-Strike. With Liquid announcing their new player, all eyes are now on Evil Geniuses, who are expected to announce the signings of autimatic, RUSH and former Liquid player Stewie.
Both Liquid and Evil Geniuses will be introducing their new roster in just a few weeks at the BLAST Premier Spring group stage.
