'''Team Liquid''' is a multi-gaming team organization that was founded in the Netherlands in 2010 as a ''StarCraft: Brood War'' team. In January 2015, they merged with [[Team Curse]] (not the '''Curse Gaming''' organization). This page contains information about their primary League of Legends team, formerly known as Team Curse.

The organization also runs the most-visted ''StarCraft''-related website in the world, [http://www.teamliquid.net/ TeamLiquid.net], which has given to a rise ''League'' sub-site, [http://www.liquidlegends.net Liquid Legends] since Liquid acquired Curse and joined the LCS.

Team Liquid acquired their League of Legends roster in January 2015 upon merging with [[Team Curse]] (not to be confused with the team's former title sponsor '''Curse Gaming'''). They inherited Team Curse's spot in the [[Riot League Championship Series/North America/2015 Season/Spring Season|LCS]], and their starting roster going into the 2015 season included [[Quas]], [[IWillDominate]], [[FeniX]], [[Piglet]], and [[Xpecial]]. At the same time as this merger was announced, Team Liquid launched the site ''liquidlegends.net'', a hub for all of their League of Legends content.<ref>[http://www.liquidlegends.net/forum/lol-general/474679-team-liquid-and-former-curse-become-one Team Liquid and Former Curse Become One] ''liquidlegends.net''</ref>

At the start of the season, Piglet was unable to play in the NA LCS Spring Split due to visa issues, and so [[Team Liquid Academy]] AD carry {{bl|KEITHMCBRIEF}} started in his place for the first week. The team went 2-0. Piglet then returned for weeks 2, 3, and 4, but after poor performances and a 1-5 record, KEITHMCBRIEF (now '''Keith''') was returned to the starting lineup.<ref name="keithplaysweek5">[http://www.teamliquidpro.com/news/2015/02/16/lcs-news-keith-moved-to-starting-roster-for-week-5 Keith replaced Piglet for Week 5 of NA LCS Spring Season] ''teamliquidpro.com''</ref> During this time, to accommodate Keith's high-school schedule, Liquid scrimmed with Piglet in the mornings and then with Keith in the afternoons. The team went 3-1 in weeks 5 and 6, and Piglet was returned for week 7; he stayed on the starting roster through the rest of the split.<ref name="piglet7">[http://www.teamliquidpro.com/news/2015/03/04/lcs-news-piglet-moved-to-starting-roster-for-week-7 LCS News: Piglet moved to starting roster for Week 7] ''teamliquidpro.com''</ref> The team qualified for [[Riot League Championship Series/North America/2015 Season/Spring Playoffs|playoffs]] with the sixth seed after defeating [[Team 8]] in a tiebreaker game. There, they beat [[Counter Logic Gaming|CLG]] 3-0 in the quarterfinals before falling to [[Cloud9]] 3-2 in the semifinals; in the third-place match, Liquid finally broke the "fourth-place curse" that stopped them from placing higher than fourth place in any event that had persisted since they were Team Curse and took down [[Team Impulse]] 3-2 (though their third-place finish did average with former sister team [[Gravity]]'s fifth-place finish to an overall four).

Team Liquid stuck with the same five-man roster for the entirety of the [[Riot League Championship Series/North America/2015 Season/Summer Season|summer split]], and they finished the round robin in first place after winning a tiebreaker match over Counter Logic Gaming - [[LCS Teams Timeline|the first team]] other than TSM or Cloud9 to place first in an NA LCS round robin. However, in the [[Riot League Championship Series/North America/2015 Season/Summer Playoffs|playoffs]], they lost immediately in the semifinals to TSM, making them also the first team to finish first in an NA LCS round robin but not make the playoff finals. A CLG victory over TSM in the playoff finals sent Team Liquid to the [[2015 Season North America Regional Finals|regional finals]] instead of giving them a direct seed to [[2015 Season World Championship|Worlds]] via [[2015 Season/Championship Points|Championship Points]], and in the gauntlet they lost to underdogs Cloud9, ending their post-season abruptly.

Following a rumor that Piglet was to leave the team published in late September 2015, Team Liquid announced that they were actually extending his contract.<ref>[http://www.dailydot.com/esports/piglet-leaves-team-liquid/ Piglet and Team Liquid part ways] ''dailydot.com''</ref><ref name="pigletcontract">[http://twitter.com/TeamLiquidLoL/status/648579761195864064 Team Liquid's Tweet] ''twitter.com''</ref> The next day, Xpecial revealed that it was he who was leaving the team, not Piglet, and in October the team announced [[Smoothie]] as their new starting support player.<ref name="xpecialleavevlog">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPZ7FKyJ3A8 TL Update - Xpecial On His Future] ''youtube.com''</ref><ref name="smoothiejoin">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEoc3ZD2nSw Team Liquid Smoothie Challenge] ''youtube.com''</ref> Soon after, Xpecial's departure was officially announced as well.<ref name="xpecialleavetl">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJrKim_IYL8 Xpecial - Free Agency, C9 Challenger, Future] ''youtube.com''</ref>

===2016 Season===

|teamdate16=

In late December, Team Liquid announced their plans for a 10-man-roster and heavily revamped their coaching staff with [[Locodoco]] as new head coach and new support staff.<ref name="10manroster" /> In January, Liquid announced the addition of [[Lourlo]] to fill the gap left by [[Quas]] and added [[zig]], [[Dardoch]], [[Youngbin]], [[fabbbyyy]] and [[Matt]] as active subs from their Challenger team [[Team Liquid Academy]].<ref name="subs2016"></ref> What "active subs" turned out to mean was a permanent roster shuffle, in which Dardoch and Matt joined the LCS team [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Spring Season/Team Rosters|after the first game]] of the [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Spring Season|split]]. IWDominate retired, and Smoothie moved to the Academy team.

Liquid's spring split started out rocky, with an 0-2 first week and cumulative winrates of 50% or worse after each of the first eight weeks. Eventually, their new roster started to solidify, and they climbed into a fourth-place regular-season finish, behind the newly-formed and almost-undefeated [[Immortals]], CLG, and Cloud9. A lot of their success was attributed to Dardoch's jungling, and he was named Rookie of the Split. Team Liquid's [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Spring Playoffs|quarterfinal]] series was an easy 3-0 over [[NRG]], but in the semifinals, they lost a narrow five-game series to CLG (the eventual champions). In the fifth game, Piglet was caught out in mid lane by a double-teleport from both [[Darshan]] and [[Huhi]] at the same time to the same ward and died. While Liquid were already behind in that game, it was this play that sealed the win for their opponents. In the third-place series against the tournament-favorite Immortals who had been knocked down in an upset by TSM, Liquid lost once again, this time 0-3, to finish the playoffs in fourth place overall and continuing their "fourth-place curse."

Despite Dardoch's stellar spring split performance, on May 27th, he was suspended by the team for "behavioral problems and team dynamics issues" ahead of the [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Summer Season|Summer Split]].<ref name="dardochsuspend">[http://www.teamliquidpro.com/news/2016/05/27/dardoch-suspension Dardoch Suspension] ''teamliquidpro.com''</ref> Liquid Academy jungler [[Moon (Galen Holgate)|Moon]] was used for the team's first series instead, which they lost, and by the end of the week Dardoch was starting again, where he remained through the end of the [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Summer Playoffs|Playoffs]]. Soon after Dardoch's return, fabbbyyy was also traded to the main Team Liquid roster, this time in exchange for Piglet. This roster of Lourlo, Dardoch, FeniX, fabbbyyy, and Matt stabilized, and the team finished in fifth place with a 9-9 series record. In the playoffs, they shook up their roster once again, substituting in [[Jynthe]] for their third game against CLG after two losses. Jynthe won his first game, but Team Liquid ultimately lost the series 3-1 and then also lost in the first round of the [[2016 Season North America Regional Finals|Regional Finals]] to [[Team EnVyUs]], this time with both Jynthe at AD carry and former substitute mid laner [[Arcsecond]] jungling.

Aidan "Zirene" Moon is a shoutcaster for Riot Games.

Biography[]

Aidan "Zirene" Moon began playing video games in the fourth grade, after he broke his femur riding his bike and was hospitalized for multiple months. He was given a Gameboy and Pokemon Red to entertain himself, and from there grew into computer games with the approval of his parents.
