|content=[[Companies/Team Liquid|Team Liquid]] has announced the departure of Wilton "⁠[[People/zews|zews]]⁠" Prado from his role as head coach, effective immediately. This marks the second exit for Liquid, following Casper "⁠cadiaN⁠" Møller's benching earlier this month. 

The decision comes amidst disappointing results since Liquid's recent rebuilding efforts, which included the additions of Russel "⁠Twistzz⁠" Van Dulken and Felipe "⁠skullz⁠" Medeiros. Zews joined Liquid in December alongside Twistzz and skullz, raising hopes among fans for a revitalized roster. 

However, the team struggled to fulfill these expectations, failing to secure a top ten world ranking. Despite a strong initial showing, Liquid's hopes of qualifying for the PGL Major Copenhagen were dashed, highlighting ongoing inconsistencies against top-tier competition. Liquid did achieve playoff appearances at IEM Chengdu and ESL Pro League Season 19; however, reports indicated that the atmosphere within the team remained strained overall.
