Epitacio "TACO" de Melo appears poised to sign for Liquid after joining the North American team's ESEA roster.

The move all but confirms that the Brazilian will sign for Liquid, one of the two North American teams that he has been linked with since departing SK.

The 23-year-old, who has also been tipped to join Cloud9, has made no secret that he plans to join a North American team and even revealed that he turned down a move to Europe to remain in California.

TACO is now on Liquid's ESEA roster

It has been reported that Epitacio "⁠TACO⁠" de Melo will take compatriot Lucas "⁠steel⁠" Lopes's spot on the roster, which, if confirmed, sees the 24-year-old exit the team less than six months after being recruited from Immortals.

TACO could make his first appearance for Liquid on Wednesday night as the North American team will take on NRG in the ESL Pro League, in which the cs_summit 2 champions currently have a 13-1 record.
