According to some prominent insiders within the Counter-Strike scene, Liquid are looking to bench NAF in favor of German player Krimbo.

NAF has been on the side of Liquid since February 5th 2018, where he was signed from Australian team Renegades. However, he had previously had a stint within the team in 2015. After being a stable and semi-consistent player within the organisation for so many years it seems that Liquid feel like it is time to part-ways.

Parting ways with NAF allows for the opportunity to acquire a new talent. It seems that Liquid have set their eyes on German player Krimbo. Krimbo, 23, has been associated with BIG for several years across many stints, primarily as a core member of the main roster since march 2022. Unfortunately for Krimbo, he was benched by the German organisation in October of 2025 (where he has been since).

Will Liquid be benching NAF and sign Krimbo in his place? Sources seem to heavily suggest so.
