Nisha is a remarkably consistent tier-1 midlaner who has been at the top with Team Liquid for a long time. 2024 was Michał's best year: he became The International champion and also took second place at Riyadh Masters 2024 (now part of the Esports World Cup).
As a result of this transfer window, Team Liquid has made two roster changes: Wisper took over the offlaner position from Ace, while a permanent replacement for Nisha has yet to be announced.
It is currently unknown whether Nisha will return to the professional scene. According to rumors, he might be replaced in Team Liquid by the former Falcons midlaner, Malr1ne. At BLAST Slam VIII, Liquid will play with MidOne as a stand-in.
Nisha is not the only pro player to go inactive: one can also recall Magomed "Collapse" Khalilov, Danil "gpk" Skutin, and Andreas "Cr1t-" Nielsen. Topias "Topson" Taavitsainen and Syed "SumaiL" Hassan had previously talked about pausing their careers, but they will compete in the new 2026/2027 season.
Roster Team Liquid's for BLAST Slam VIII:
- miCKe
- MidOne (stand-in)
- Wisper
- Boxi
- tOfu
