Snute joins TeamLiquid

Today the most successful Norwegian Starcraft 2 player Jens “Snute” Aasgaard has joined the ranks of Team Liquid. Snute is a young and talented Zerg player with a successful 2012 season. His latest major achievement was taking first place at the recent Home Story Cup VI. Even though Team Liquid is full of strong Zerg players, they believe that Snute is the right player for them and will boost their presence at the upcoming 2013 events.

With how critical Liquid is about its recruits, when the perfect player and person comes along, race can only have a limited impact in the decision. For me it is more important for Snute’s character to fit Liquid than his race. There are very few players out there with the skill, potential, and personality to join Liquid, and I wasn’t going to let this opportunity get away.  Team Liquid Statement

Snute’s first appearance wearing Liquid blue will be at the upcoming Intel Extreme Masters Katowice, Poland, where he is drafted to play in Group A alongside  mOOnGLaDe and Grubby (+ 3 more players tbd). Also later this year he will join EG-TL players in Korea.

Snute will travel to Poland to play his first tournament as a Liquid player at IEM Katowice. After that… One of the things which drew Snute to Liquid was that we both wanted him to spend a period in Korea for training. The details are still to be determined, but we will definitely make it happen at some point this year. You can count on seeing Snute in Korea in 2013, and hopefully in the Proleague as well!  Team Liquid Statement
