But how did Brazil get

Fnatic had nothing short of a tumultuous ride through the League of Legends 2021 World Championship. After Upset had to unexpectedly drop out from the competition due to personal circumstances, the team lost their footing trying to balance this new roster with little preparation, and have been eliminated from the event. Bwipo, Fnatic’s starting jungler, explained on Twitter that losing Upset at Worlds and little preparation with Bean took a toll on the entirety of the team. Yet outside of this change, Bwipo had also been dealing with personal issues

The international CS:GO team also played an official match with academy player Iulian “⁠regali⁠” Harjău but ended up deciding on giving smooya a shot. Smooya’s arrival means that Fnatic has a British core
