fnatic head coach: We´ve had a rough time adapting to the online era
The strong Swedes has gone from being a Top 5 team on the world ranking last year to now being placed at #18.
The iconic team of fnatic has been an essential part of the CS:GO history, with the dominant Swedes having racked up multiple Major titles and other huge trophies throughout their lifetime. However, that’s all in the past.
Because the glory days at fnatic, and the Swedish Counter-Strike scene in general, are long gone. Despite possessing a strong lineup with the likes of Freddy “KRIMZ” Johansson, Ludvig “Brollan” Brolin, and Jesper “JW” Wecksell, the Swedes have dropped down the rankings in the last couple of years, especially in the ongoing online era.

fnatic Head Coach Andreas "Samuelsson" Samuelsson reflects on the disappointing year by explaining that they haven’t managed to cope with the online era.
- We´re not happy with our performance lately. Covid had a bigger impact than we anticipated. We´ve had a rough time adapting to the online era but we have started the evaluation process to make the adjustments required. With hard work and dedication, we will prevail the hardships. Samuelsson writes on Twitter.
