William will take the position of primary sniper. In early June, Captain of Fnatic, Richard “Xizt” Landström reported in an interview with HLTV.org that Jesper “JW” Wecksell doesn’t want to permanently act with AWP, but play more universally. The first LAN-tournament for the renewed Fnatic lineup will be ESL One Cologne 2018, which will be held from July 3-8 in Germany. The prize fund of the championship will be $300,000 USD.
Golden has been playing for Fnatic since August 2017 and he has served as a captain. He became the team’s entry fragger at the end of May 2018 with the arrival of Landsström. With Fnatic, Selim won the IEM Season XII – World Championship and WESG 2017, top 4 finish at ECS Season 4 and ESL Pro League Season 6 and also got into top 8 at the ELEAGUE Major 2018.
