The team will compete in the Elisa Masters invitational that starts in a few days.
London-based Fnatic have moved Christopher "dexter" Nong to the bench effective immediately. The org’s roster rebuild has already seen two players leaving the roster before Dexter. Currently, the Fnatic roster only has Krimz and afro on its active roster.
Fnatic bench Dexter
Dexter joined Fnatic earlier this year when he replaced mezii as the team’s IGL. The Australian player was a part of MOUZ before switching over to Fnatic.
However, his time on Fnatic did not yield many positive results. The squad finished last or near to last in almost every event that they participated in.Their last tournament was the Thunderpick World Championship where they finished in the 9-12th place.
The team did not have good results, but even on an individual level, the 29-year-old player could not make a noticeable difference. He averaged a 0.88 rating during his time on Fnatic.
