What to expect from Liquid v. ENCE

Liquid haven't necessarily had the easiest last few days with rumors of a breakup between their star IGL Casper "cadiaN" Møller and the rest of the squad. They were able to recover from a potentially close loss against OG and then dumpstered AMKAL on their way to playoffs in the CCT Grand Final. Now they're hoping to find some magic and potentially right the ship as they head into the remainder of the first half of 2024.

Liquid's Love Lost

Losing a teammate and losing events. It's not going so well for Liquid in 2024. However, now might be the spiritual break that the team needs in order to reset. ENCE have not necessarily been looking overly strong, but they are still considered one of the better teams in Europe. It would be good for Liquid to get the win here and make a serious run in this online event.

• NAF and Twistzz continue to dominate

• YEKINDAR slowly coming back to form

• skullz has to figure out how he fits

ENCE on the ropes

A poor performance at Skyesports Masters and then a very underwhelming showing at ESL Pro League Season 19 doesn't necessarily give fans a lot of confidence into this ENCE squad that have struggled after a hot reformation. This isn't the ENCE of old and they are looking weak in a spot that would give Liquid an opportunity to strike.

• No one is playing poorly, just not above average

• Nuke has been a weak spot, despite their tendency to play it

Previous Matchups

The two squads have never played one another.

Likely Vetoes

The vetoes actually match up well for Liquid who can easily take away some of ENCE's favorites.

• Liquid ban Vertigo

• ENCE ban Inferno

• Liquid pick Ancient

• ENCE pick Anubis

• Decider is Nuke

Liquid and ENCE are set to play tomorrow at 06:00AM.
