“The past year has been very difficult for us in-game and out. While I was glad that we were able to make it to TI, ultimately we did not perform to standard the rest of the teams were setting. Some of the problems we identified were that we were lacking a proper playstyle and obvious in-game leader. Due to that, we have decided to bring in Envy, Pieliedie and Xcalibur. I am personally very excited for this roster and the depth we have heading into the new season. I hope that with this new line-up, we’ll able to try harder and also bring in a lot more consistency than we had before.” – Xin Khoo ‘Ohaiyo’ Chong

“My first splash in the competitive scene was as a standin 3 years ago with the Fnatic EU team. Now I’m getting another opportunity with Fnatic’s Southeast Asian roster. I’ll be playing with great and established players and I’m hoping to learn lots and prove myself. I’m looking forward for a great season and I’m happy to be representing Fnatic.“ – Steve ‘Xcalibur’ Ye
