From its nascence, Valorant had shown huge potential as an established eSport soon. The amalgamation of the gameplay elements from various popular FPS multiplayer out there, along with MMORPG elements makes it a unique experience and makes room for cutthroat competition. Riot Games have the competitive aspect of the game really well, with the latest ranking system in the game urging players to keep up their grind for the top spot as a pro.

Liquid’s Valorant roster features pros like ScreaM and the Fish123 roster
Team Liquid is no doubt one of the top-tier eSports organizations globally. To be a part of its roster is a huge honor for these players. It is evident that Liquid has hand-picked one of the best players in the game right now to form this ‘dream team’. They took the entire roster from the British team Fish123 in addition to ScreaM.
ScreaM
The ‘One-Tap’ hit machine from Belgium is one of the most well-known faces in the eSports scene, majorly because of his exploits in CS: GO. Recently his journey ended officially with his former team Gamer Legion.
My adventure with GamerLegion has come to an end
I wanna thank them for our time together and wish them the best in the future 💪🏽 https://t.co/A5zzHuT4cd

It goes without saying that the headshot machine is excited about his run as a part of a prestigious roster in Valorant. Will he shine again as he puts opponents on the wrong side of his crosshair? We can’t wait to find out!

The former Fish123 captain will probably be the captain of the TL roster as well. The British pro played his first match on the game as a part of Liquid. He went on to gather a whopping 28 kills in the Radiant ranked match.

Soulcas
The 20-year-old British pro might not be one of the more well-known names out there. But he has been consistently securing top positions on the Valorant leaderboard under the Fish123 roster. A promising player, Soulcas is excited to do his part in the TL roster and make it big.
I cannot believe this day has happened. I have signed with @TeamLiquid to be a part of their VALORANT team.
Its starting to make me tear up knowing that i can actually say to my parents…that ive made it.
This is such a blessing and i cannot wait to see what the future holds💙 https://t.co/DdtOINjJXa— Liquid soulcas 🦋 (@soulcas_) August 7, 2020

One of the more fresh faces in the eSports scene out there, Kryptix is a really talented player. As for L1NK, the Team Liquid announcement was on his birthday. He says it’s his best birthday present, and we agree!
To top it off, it’s my birthday, what a birthday present 😄 Love everyone!

If you have noticed by now, the entire Fish123 roster features fresh faces and brought a host of fresh talent to the block. Bringing the entire roster under their banner (with the exception of ‘Siggy’, former Fish123 coach), Team Liquid is looking at letting this group of fresh talent have a go at this new eSport. This strategy would make sense because Fish123 did prove their worth in Valorant while being new and having no organization to back them. Furthermore, Liquid has thrown a pro like ScreaM in the mix. Overall, this roster does look promising and bubbling with potential. We wish them all the best!
