It used to be two.

There was only two.

One of them was Liquid.

One of them was Cloud9.

And then you had the third string, which was CLG, which ended up becoming...

NRG slash EG, right?

They were third string.

But there were two teams who were clearly the best in North America.

And now it doesn't feel that way.

Like in the early days, you had the bro club of the Cloud9 boys, right?

With Sean Gares and Nothing and Free Kazoid and obviously Shroud coming through there and Skadoodle.

And then they later went on to kind of merge with some of the CLG boys.

but they they were at the top with that kind of group and then liquid always felt like the nerdier group led by adren and having a leash there and and hiko and and nitro they always felt like the bit of the nerdier crew but either way those were like cool dogs yeah and you even had a third string back in the day which was the i buy power guys i guess they were second string before liquid technically um yeah i don't even know how to call them second string but you know what i mean they're one of the one of the top kids now it just it doesn't even feel like that and i i

I was on the, not anti, I was on the like, oh, they don't even need to be North American, Jason, like fuck the US.

But now I look at it and I think for ease of qualification and for the betterment of the region, it would be better if Liquid just- She makes me so happy.

For a really weak region, just to be fair, for a really weak region, we talk about North America a lot.

don't we like yeah could you imagine if we spoke about fucking the the teams below austria this much right like what what are we what are we doing you know look let's just get something going so people can get excited um because right now there's not a lot of that but we're essentially we're talking about the liquid g2 swap so did you guys see the malbs interview with hltv

So this is just an excerpt from that interview.

So he was asked about the change.

I didn't see myself leaving G2 this quickly.
