With that being said I’m going to focus all my energy into that proccess and I’m officially quiting Csgo after years of trying my best. I’ll make an extended twit longer expressing my gratitude to the people I’ve met and the people that have helped me so much. I love you all. — Noble fgb (@fgbVAL) August 31, 2018

FGB last played as a stand-in for Guerilla Tactics in Season 27 while the roster composed itself. He previously competed in Season 1 of ESL ESEA Pro League, originally as a part of Coast, before joining up with Kyle "OCEAN" O'Brien on SKDC.

FGB also had a short tenure on the LFAO lineup that is now Vireo.pro in MDL Season 26 before departing for Main after being replaced by Felipe "pavel" Costa. As a part of Guerilla Tactics that same season, FGB missed out on his chance for a slot in MDL Season 28 after GT narrowly fell in round 2 of playoffs to Third Times the Charm, who went on to place second and qualify themselves.
