Community reaction
This news shook the entire community, especially Team Liquid fans, so much so that Team Liquid co-Ceo, Steve Archancet released a video on twitter to clarify the situation:
Nitr0 has been playing under the Team Liquid organization since the 13th of January of 2015, so it will be very sad to see him leaving the organization, or stepping down from professional Counter-Strike.
Who is Grim?
Michael “Grim” Wince is an up and coming player who is determined to showcase his abilities in CS:GO. He’s played under multiple organizations and teams such as: SoaR, Dignitas, Spacestation, and most recently, Triumph. Most of his achievements were with the Triumph roster and he’s looking to grab more wins, under Team Liquid.
