With fnatic, you never really know how to position yourself. It is a historical structure of the European scene which has won numerous titles, in particular the Worlds of season 1. But the fans have been on a dry diet for almost 4 years. The media slider has changed and today the team is known more for its dramas than for its results.
Lately, Upset’s little statement about the lack of scrim has caused a lot of talk. Caedrel, the caster, had mentioned a “cringe” reason. The structure released a press release last night which gives a little more detail… Two players tested positive for Covid-19. It’s unclear whether the disease directly impacted the lack of scrim, but there’s more. Both players could withdraw for the start of the competition!
Two positive players therefore two forfeited players?
The two players in question are Upset and Hyllisang. It is not known if they have serious symptoms, but the structure has indicated that they cannot fly. This does not necessarily mean that they are in bad shape, since a potentially contagious individual is not authorized to travel. The rest of the team should therefore leave for Mexico City without them. It must be said that the competition starts in less than a week and that time is running out.
In addition to disrupting the preparation of the group, which will definitely not be able to scrim in full if the Atlantic Ocean separates the botlane from the rest of the roster, this raises serious questions about the presence of the German and the Bulgarian for the first matches of Fnatic at Worlds. We don’t know for how long Upset and Hyllisang will still be positive… We hope that Riot Games will allow the team to take two replacements. Are approached the players of the academy team BEAN and Rhuckz. The young ADC could well play his 2nd Worlds, without having played a single time in the LEC.
Stop the harassment
Let us also take the time to specify that in this story, Upset and his women have nothing to do with it. Bad luck is mostly to blame, which seems to follow Fnatic season after season.
The German and his half have taken a new surge of hatred on the networks. Between the baseless accusations and the bad taste jokes, Twitter has shown that it is capable of the worst. Some still haven’t digested the drama of Worlds 2021, but after a while, you have to know how to grow up and let go… especially when you know why the ADC finally left the last world.
