FNATIC R6 joins EUL with former KOI roster

FNATIC R6 will officially compete in the Europe League after hiring the core players that were at KOI. The British organization will compete on European soil for the first time after years of competing in Oceania and later in Japan. The debut of FNATIC R6 does not have an official date yet, but it is expected to happen at the Europe League in March.

The organization signed three players who were the core of KOI. These players later competed as Rogue for a few weeks. LeonGids and Deapek signed with FNATIC R6 from the core team that won the Six Major Berlin tournament in 2022 with Rogue.

Former MNM player Tyrant also joined FNATIC R6 alongside young talent Jeggz. The British organization arrived in Europe with representation from its home country by two players and a coach as well.

FNATIC began its adventure in the game in 2018 by signing the Australian squad that was from Mindfreak. During the organization's visit to the region, the team revealed Jake "Virtue" Grannan. As a Six Invitational champion, the player left FNATIC to join G2 in March 2020.

In 2022, FNATIC signed the core players of Ex-GUTS Gaming, a squad made up of Japanese players. FNATIC's visit to R6 across the Asian continent was marked by an experience below expectations. FNATIC failed to qualify for any Major or Six Invitational during this period.
