Counter-Strike 2 fans and experts are voicing their frustration with Team Liquid and criticizing the organization's stagnant project after Zews officially withdrew from the group.

Esprots fans were quick to express a mix of frustration, resignation and speculation today after the head coach’s departure was confirmed, underscoring the high expectations and scrutiny that come with being a top esports organisation. One CS2 fan suggested that the situation could simply be described as “a colossal failure”, while another pointed to the amount of money that had been spent and the fact that this was the team’s third rebuild in 12 months.

Others also threw their weight behind the flagging project on X (formerly Twitter), with some stating they “knew it was coming” while others said it was “deserved” for signing skullz⁠ — a stint on the roster that lasted barely a few months.

Discussions quickly turned to the future, with CS2 personalities such as fl0m suggesting that Twistzz could now take on the role of in-game leader. Another online personality, Thorin, said that individual performance and team synergy have been so poor that the only thing that can save things now is a fresh start from scratch.
