The victory over the cases caused an extravaganza caused by an infectious disease: Seattle rejoiced, because the liquid remained a pathological club from North America, where the main event of the season took place.

The following years, the "liquid" register the passage of the world's TOP shares, but it was not possible to do this exactly until 2016. In the event that the club's management made the right choice in favor of players from Europe, refusing the status of the "American team".

Liquid were close to repeating the landmark result in 2019. Then in the grand final of The International 2019 they met with OG.

KuroKy and company weren't about to raise the Champion's Aegis a second time when he had the opportunity to do so with his OG counterpart.

In the new history of Liquid in Dota 2, already without KuroKy and stellar growth, Liquid were close to the results of 17 and 19 years. Under the patronage of MATUMBAMAN, the team reached the TOP-3 of The International 2022, losing the match for reaching the grand final to another grand - Team Secret.
