YEKINDAR to stand in for Team Liquid at BLAST Premier Fall Groups

Latvian star Mareks “⁠YEKINDAR⁠” Gaļinskis will be Team Liquid’s fifth CS:GO player at the $177,500 BLAST Premier Fall Groups, which will run from Aug. 19 to 28, the organization confirmed to HLTV.

YEKINDAR has not signed a contract with Liquid thus far but will play his second event with Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski and crew. The 22-year-old played for the North Americans at IEM Cologne in July and helped them reach the quarterfinals of the $1 million tournament, Liquid’s best placing at a big tournament since the additions of Nicholas “nitr0” Cannella and Joshua “oSee” Ohm for the 2022 season.
