Kuroky and his former Team Liquid pals finally announced the name of their new Dota 2 roster and the revelation of Nigma prompted a mixture of confusion and ridicule from the community.
It was announced just after TI that Kuroky and Liquid would be parting ways, with the influential captain keen to reform his own org.
The five-man line-up of Kuroky, Miracle-, w33, MinD_ContRoL and GH went their own way, while Team Liquid snapped up the ex-Alliance roster as a replacement.
