Eclypsia left their organization a few days ago, and it has now become apparent why.
According to an official statement by Eclypsia manager SarenS, the team left because their organization could not book their trip to IPL5 for the Wild Card qualifier quick enough. Questions were asked when the team left their organization, "How are you getting to IPL5 now?".
Well, that has all been answered now. One of the world's largest and most prestigious gaming teams has joined the ShootMania community, by picking up a frenchman and two dutchmen . Kevin "strenx" Baeza already has a history with Fnatic, as he represented the Black and Orange colours in Quake Live for a period.
Fnatic has always been a strong advocate of the FPS-genre, starting with titles such as Unreal Tournament, Quake, Counter-Strike and Painkiller, the organization is again shining bright in the darker days of FPS esports. Currently, they have leading players in games such as Counter-Strike, StarCraft II, League of Legends and DotA2. They have already showed their support to ShootMania earlier, when they hosted the Fnatic RaidCall PLAY Cup, in cooperation with
ShootMania Esports.
This is so good to be fnatic again! Hello again to everyone! I hope I will still choose situation when to be aggressive, or not when to be aggressive, because I'm talking it! Let's fight again, and we will prove that we will be the best, even without lightning gun! If you want to see my super fnatic picture, go to my facebook page: www.facebook.com/strenx, everything looks better with fnatic in it!
We are very happy to get this oppertunity from Fnatic. After our second place in the ESWC we are sure we can grow further under the Fnatic flag. Having trouble with our last organisation we can now focus purely on the game itself. With Fnatic behind our back we will be fighting hard on the IPL5 in Vegas and all other events after that to prove that we belong at the top.
Behold, the announcement that we have joined forces with Fnatic! Huzzah! We will be representing them at the IPL5 tournament in Las Vegas which is in 3 weeks from now, and we hope to prove that it was a good move from them to pick us up. Ever since I started competitive gaming I've looked up to Fnatic, which is why it's a really great honor for me to actually play under their name and achieve the best results possible while doing so. Were really looking forward to be working together with this organisation, woopdedoo!
