Liquid has parted ways with head coach Wilton “zews” Prado after only six months, the North American organization confirmed Monday evening.
This marks the second departure from Liquid’s underperforming project, which was formed in December 2023, following Casper “cadiaN” Møller’s exit earlier this month.

A quick analysis suggests that Liquid has acted in response to a disappointing 2024 so far by removing the two figures primarily responsible for strategy and team direction: the in-game leader and the head coach.
In a post on X, zews addressed his departure:
– Not gonna lie, it sucks and hurts to be out of Team Liquid. I’m still very much in the middle of processing all of this, so I don’t want to comment too much for now. All I can say is that I gave it my all and I genuinely have nothing but love for the organization and the people in it. I wish everyone the best of luck moving forward, zews stated.
Countryman to follow suit
Despite these significant changes, Liquid is not stopping there. It appears that zews and cadiaN won’t be the only ones leaving the team, as the young rifler Felipe “skullz” Medeiros is expected to join FURIA soon.
