Team Liquid New CS: GO Player, Nitro: “I didn’t really talk to too many people in the Valorant scene.”
100 Thieves failed to qualify for Valorant Champions, which forced them to change their roster. As a result, they benched Nitro. The rumors started to emerge from that point of time that nitr0 might join Team Liquid.
Talking to Washington Post, Nitr0 revealed why he left Valorant and joined CS: GO. He said “I guess the age group was a little bit younger. I’m 26. I feel like most of the people were around the age of, like 18 to 20, maybe even 21. So obviously there was a little bit of age gap. I didn’t really talk to too many people in the “Valorant” scene.”
He added, “But in the “Counter-Strike” scene, I had a pretty good relationship with most of the pros. And obviously coming back to Liquid was a no-brainer, with having [Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski] and [Keith “NAF” Markovic] still there, two of my favorite teammates.”
