Team Liquid has re-signed Canadian star Keith “NAF” Markovic, returning the rifler to the starting lineup nearly three years removed from his most recent stint with the organization.
It’s been a long and winding road that’s brought NAF back to Team Liquid, one that’s been a part of the organization since early 2015, when the original CS:GO roster was assembled before being replaced by EliGE later that year. Since then, the 20-year-old has established himself elsewhere, most notably with OpTic Gaming, winning the ELEAGUE Season 2 championship and making the ECS Season 2 finals, before joining up with Renegades.
As NAF makes his return, Liquid is doubling down on the brand of team that prides itself on its multi-threat riflers instead of its reliance on a star AWP player, a far cry from what many of its competitors in the international scene are used to. If the Canadian can bring his form from his days with OpTic and Renegades into this new project, Liquid would instantly become the best bet from North America in terms of competing with the best from Europe.
NAF will play his next match for Liquid against Passion UA in ESL Pro League Season 23 Stage 1. Will NAF be able to make the Liquid fans happy? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
