Fnatic

History and achievements

Fnatic rose to fame as one of the most dominant organizations in the history of esports, but competition is now fiercer and it’s harder to win major trophies. Since its foundation in 2004, it has built a name through success in various titles, especially League of Legends and Counter-Strike. In League of Legends, Fnatic is one of the most respected teams in Europe. The organization was part of the very first Worlds in 2011, where it claimed victory and became the first world champion – though it’s worth noting that the LoL esports scene back then wasn’t very developed, and the wider pro-gaming community doesn’t consider that title particularly significant. Fnatic regularly competes in the playoff stages of the top European league, the LEC, where it has secured several titles. The team remains a strong force and continues to be among the best European squads—during the first split of 2025, it had no competition. Notably, the current LoL team is home to the top Czech midlaner, Humanoid.

• Most successful esports teams

In the Counter-Strike scene, Fnatic is considered a legendary organization. The team dominated from 2013–2015, winning several Majors including DreamHack Winter 2013, ESL One Katowice 2015, and ESL One Cologne 2015. Back then, very few teams could compete with its roster. Fnatic featured elite players and was synonymous with success in the CS community. However, those glory days are now long gone, and today, the CS division is considered more of a mid-tier team. Fnatic also fields strong squads in other games: Valorant, Rainbow Six, Apex Legends, and Overwatch 2. Its Valorant team is among the best in Europe and regularly takes part in international tournaments. In Rainbow Six Siege, Fnatic is one of the best-known teams in the APAC region and has claimed several notable victories on the global stage. Fnatic is not only a top-tier esports organization but also a strong global brand. The organization partners with major brands such as BMW, AMD, Monster Energy, and more. Thanks to its innovative marketing, active fan engagement, and strong social media presence, it has earned a solid place in the esports industry and in the hearts of fans. It also focuses on nurturing esports talent and building an active community. The organization supports young players through academic programs and organizes training camps for them.
