Liquid parts ways with FLUFFNSTUFF

Another member of the original 2012 Team Liquid squad parts ways with the club, this time being Brian 'FLUFFNSTUFF' Lee. The support player lead Team Liquid to several significant victories in 2012 and 2013, including the 7th place in TI3.

The American squad Team Liquid has been going through some rough times recently, with its performance being below the standards we were used to the past two years. Brian 'FLUFFNSTUFF' Lee expressed his feelings through a long blog post some days ago, admitting that the atmosphere and coordination amongst the five players did not meet his expectations. He later issued an apology and promised to try very hard to revert the situation. However, it seems that he will not get the chance, with Liquid announcing his departure today.

Lee has been a part of Team Liquid since the formation of its Dota2 squad. With the help of ixmike88, TC, Korok and BuLba, FLUFF conquered several prestigious tournaments in 2013, including the second season of RaidCall Dota2 League and the first seasons of American Dota League and Curse Invitational. Their victories resulted in a direct invite to The International 3. In Seattle, they were able to reach the 7th place for $43,116, losing to Invictus Gaming during Round 3 of the Main Event.

Following the elimination from The International, the team's performance started slowly declining. Steven 'Korok' Ashworth and Mike 'ixmike88' Ghannam left the squad, and got replaced by Max 'qojqva' Brocker and Peter 'waytoosexy' Nguyen. Nonetheless, the mediocre results kept coming, and changes needed to be made for the team to stand strong again.

We have no further information about FLUFF's future in the Dota2 scene. Team Liquid will be trying several new players to fill his position.
