Team Liquid directly stated the reason for 33's departure to Tundra Esports

William "Blitz" Lee, the coach of Team Liquid , stated that Neta "33" Shapira left the team not due to conflicts but because Tundra Esports offered the player the chance to build his own roster from scratch.

This statement was made on Team Liquid 's official page on X (Twitter).

"I think people will have assumptions that we didn't see eye to eye on Dota or on an interpersonal level, but that's not the case at all. Neta has repeatedly said that he was incredibly happy, and it was his best professional season ever, but he wanted to build a team from the ground up. We felt that Neta brought incredible work ethic and professionalism to our team, instilled a lot of confidence, and was very well-loved by all of us"

It was noted that even after the Riyadh Masters 2024, the esports player spoke to his teammates about his ambitions to assemble his own team and lead it to success. For this reason, Team Liquid agreed to the transfer, as they respect their captain's wishes and wish him well.

Blitz emphasized that there were no conflicts in viewpoints or anything of the sort within the team; this was 33's personal desire. It seems that Tundra Esports provided him the opportunity to assemble his roster independently.
