Team Liquid PH Breaks Silence: Oheb Legal Action, AeronnShikii Exit, and New Roster Moves Explained


Team Liquid PH has finally addressed the whirlwind of rumors surrounding their roster, providing a transparent—and in some parts, shocking—update regarding Oheb, AeronnShikii, and the future of their MPL PH campaign.

In a heartfelt "Message to Our Fans," the organization admitted they owed their community better communication after a period of uncertainty that left many fans frustrated.

The Oheb Situation: Breach of Contract and Legal Action

The most significant revelation involves the "Philippine Sniper," Oheb. Contrary to speculation that he was being replaced, Team Liquid PH clarified that they fully intended to compete with him this season.
However, the timeline provided by the team paints a complicated picture:

 * February 2: Oheb informed management he wanted to step away from competitive play without prior warning or transition discussions.

 * February 6: After a period of silence, Oheb sent a formal request to resign, leaving the team only five business days to find a Tier 1 replacement before roster locks.

Team Liquid PH has officially stated that this sudden departure constitutes a breach of contract, and they are currently pursuing legal action.

The AeronnShikii Dilemma: Administrative Hurdles

Following Oheb’s exit, the team recruited AeronnShikii from outside the Philippines. While his performance in scrims was described as "exactly what we were looking for," administrative and visa requirements became a roadblock.
The team realized that AeronnShikii might not be cleared to play until mid-season or even the playoffs.
 
"That kind of uncertainty is something we could not build around," the organization stated, leading to the difficult decision to let AeronnShikii leave the bootcamp so he could find a team where he could play immediately.

A New Chapter with Teddy

With the EWC and MPL regular season looming, Team Liquid PH is putting its faith in Teddy. Promoted from the MDL system, Teddy has earned his spot on the main roster through the organization's established developmental process.

Moving Forward: "We Are Going to Get You That Trophy"

The organization also addressed coaching changes and roster moves in both Indonesia and the Philippines, noting that while decisions are often met with criticism, their approach has consistently led to strong results, such as winning with rookie rosters in Indonesia.

Team Liquid PH concluded by promising better communication and announced an upcoming podcast where they will answer community questions.
