peacemaker out of Team Liquid

Team Liquid have announced they have parted ways with their coach Luis "peacemaker" Tadeu.

Earlier this year, Team Liquid revealed that they had acquired former Tempo Storm coach Luis "peacemaker" Tadeu following his departure from the Brazilian team. Now peacemaker will once again be packing his bags with today's announcement that he and Liquid have come to a mutual agreement to part ways with the team, leaving the coaching responsibilities to team manager Steve “Joka” Perino.

The organization had the following to say about the change in coaches in a statement on Facebook:

When Luis joined Liquid back in May he did not have an easy spot to fill. Not too long before he joined, we had just reached the semi-finals of the major in Columbus. Playing in the U.S. and having the audience behind us made for one of the most memorable events ever to Liquid, our players, and our fans. When Luis stepped in shortly after, there were big expectations weighing on him. [...]

Despite our successful competitive history, we’ve had to push through a lot of challenges. Over the past half year, we have had a couple of fundamental philosophical differences on the principles of doing business, to the extent that we felt the relationship would no longer work in a way that would be fruitful for both parties. We have therefore come to the conclusion that the best course of action for both parties is to part ways. We have always appreciated Luis’ work, and this goes beyond what he brings to the team with his strategic knowledge.

Both sides have learned a lot from this process and I am sure Luis will prove a valuable asset to any team he joins next. I wholeheartedly believe that despite going our separate ways, we will all land on our feet and keep moving forward.”
