There’s lots of uncertainty relating to what Fnatic goes to appear to be heading into the beginning of the 2023 LEC Summer time Cut up, however based on one of many group’s latest gamers, a current main change wasn’t made clear to the remainder of the group earlier than it was introduced publicly.
Throughout a Might 1 look on JordiLMK’s Twitch stream, Fnatic’s high laner Óscar “Oscarinin” Muñoz Jiménez defined that he was unaware that his fellow teammate, Martin “Rekkles” Larsson, can be altering his function and subsequently leaving Fnatic for the upcoming break up by a video posted by Rekkles himself on Twitter, in addition to Fnatic’s official announcement.
“I used to be a bit shocked as nicely, I didn’t essentially know a lot earlier than that,” Oscarinin stated. “I used to be chilling in my home, went on Twitter to see this video of Rekkles saying he was switching to assist, and heard myself say ‘what’s taking place?’”
Since his return to the LEC after time in EMEA Masters, Rekkles and the remainder of Fnatic have been unable to qualify for both of this yr’s Playoffs brackets. Rekkles detailed in his private account that he felt “caught” as an ADC participant, a place that he had carried out in professionally for over a decade that had earned him quite a few titles all through Europe.
Fnatic then proceeded to put up additional data relating to their welcoming of Rekkles’ function swap, although detailing that he would not be part of the team going forward. As of now, it’s unclear what group Rekkles will go to, or what ADC Fnatic will deliver onto the group for the Summer time Cut up in an try to deliver the group again to its earlier highs.
Dot Esports has reached out to each Oscarinin and Fnatic for additional clarification on whether or not the members of the group got any indication of those modifications earlier than they had been revealed publicly.
