Worldwide competitive gaming group Team Liquid has declared a fresh collaborative arrangement with virtual sports wagering platform Duelbits.
Per a formal statement, the gaming team will be producing works to advocate for careful and secure gaming habits, with pursuits concentrating on audience participation for Counter-Strike 2 and Chess. Monetary specifics of the agreement were not revealed.
This denotes Team Liquid’s first major intercontinental sports wagering collaboration. The trademark will be showcased on Team Liquid’s Counter-Strike Jersey at the Counter-Strike 2’s StarLadder Major in Budapest this weekend, when the team will commence its participation in Swiss Stage 2. Throughout this tournament, Team Liquid will be vying for a portion of the $1.25m (~£945,844) total reward fund.
Established in 2020 during the COVID-19 global crisis, Duelbits has earned a solid image in the wagering sector, notably concerning crypto wagering. This isn’t the initial occasion where the firm has joined forces with a competitive gaming team. Previously, in 2022, Brazilian competitive gaming entity paiN Gaming also entered into a contract with Duelbits.
Accordingly, Team Liquid is further developing its assembly of allies, which encompasses entities such as gaming apparatus brand Alienware, gaming seating manufacturer Blacklyte, web3 blockchain infrastructure Sui, and electronic financial solutions VISA, among others. Its most current engagement was with the open-world MMORPG, Sword of Justice.
Team Liquid’s CS2 achievements in 2025
Positioned 11th on the updated VRS standings, the squad has been steadily fostering a notable chain of triumph since September 2025.
The group concluded in the upper quartile at FISSURE Playground #2, and sustained this impetus with a couple of additional third-place classifications at the Birch Cup and the CS Asia Championships. At the latest PGL Masters Bucharest, Team Liquid was ousted by Portuguese team SAW during the quarterfinal stage.
Victor Goossens, Team Liquid originator and Co-CEO, shared his thoughts regarding the collaboration: “Sports wagering has continuously intrigued Team Liquid because it incorporates a fresh dimension to the means by which enthusiasts interact with contests.
Nevertheless, we also understand that it’s a multifaceted sphere, which explains our dedication to instruction and responsible conduct. Duelbits shares this perspective, and we appreciate discovering a partner who advocates for a mutual objective.”
