FACEIT London Major was the first of its kind where fnatic couldn’t advance to the Legends Stage and flusha has been a little sloppy after the arrival of Xizt and Draken. This move also ends the long-lasting JW-Flusha-KRiMZ trio.
We have not taken this decision with a light heart. Recent results, culminating in our failure to reach Legend Status for the first time during the Major in London this month, have led us to begin work towards a revised team culture within Fnatic and thus moving towards instilling a new sense of stability in the team. We hope to establishing Fnatic as the world-renowned name in Counter-Strike that we have seen before and towards which we believe we should always be striving.
Adil, on the other hand, will be returning back to professional Counter-Strike after a short break of about two months. He has been vigorously streaming after the European Minor. The 24 year old has quite a lot of experience under his belt and he is reckoned for his raw firepower.
