Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski had until today represented Team Liquid since 2015 in one of the longest partnerships in modern Counter-Strike.
After 8 years, we are parting ways with @EliGE.
We feel deep gratitude to Jon and time on TL, from a young talent to mature adult who has helped us achieve our biggest moments: winning the Grand Slam, reaching many playoff stages, even creating one of the greatest CS memes. pic.twitter.com/082qn3tWll

Team Liquid announced the breakup with the American Rifler after having introduced Aleks “Rainwaker” Petrov and then Robert “Patsi” Isyanov as their two new European signings for the new season. The signings indicated Liquid’s decision to head towards a predominantly EU roster for the future.
Welcome Patsi!
An explosive rifler & personality, we're excited to welcome @PatsiCSGO to our roster. A young talent who has taken down plenty of top teams with his aim, we're looking forward to working him into our team's structure to elevate our skill ceiling.

EliGE was part of the 2019 Grand Slam-winning Team Liquid team that won the Intel Grand Slam in just 63 days. The only thing Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski did not achieve with Team Liquid was winning a Major.
Complexity and Evil Geniuses have been mentioned as the two most likely candidates to be EliGE’s new team.
