Last week we announced the departure of Martin "mintR" Rojder and Rickard "zEm" Intveld from the Fnatic Call of Duty 4 team. This week we bring great news from Call of Duty 4 as we announce our two new replacements in the team!

The first addition is a player that fans of Fnatic COD4 will be familiar with - Mikael "zsilts" Smedberg! zsilts was part of the team that won CDC4 back in March and then left the team a while after i33. He has decided to come back into COD4 with Fnatic and will leave the team with three formidable SMG players alongside tidde and LINQAN.

The second addition to the team is another familiar name to Call of Duty fans. He was a part of EYEBALLERS before the team joined the Fnatic family and was in the team alongside zsilts and odyxz that took the gold at Wonderbase in Call of Duty 2. We are pleased to announce that Robin "rivve" Holmen will be joining up with Fnatic COD4 to complete our new look team.

Fnatic Call of Duty 4 :

  • Daniel "tidde" Asp
  • Johan "LINQAN" Lindqvist
  • Marcus "odyxz" Nilsson
  • Robin "rivve" Holmen
  • Mikael "zsilts" Smedberg

Today the Fnatic DOTA team will also welcome a new face! After former team mate Jefri "stamx" Suwiryo decided to retire from gaming, it left a hole in the team that needed to be filled. It is with great pleasure that we welcome Jeffry "Neo" Lu to Fnatic as the final member of our new DOTA team. Neo played with Fnatic DOTA early on in the teams foundation and returns to make his mark on the game.

Daniel "tidde" Asp :

As you all know by now we are bringing some old and new blood to the team!
zsilts who was a key player in Fnatic before he left us is now motivated to 100% and is ready to once again amaze everyone as one of our SMG players. He is really good with coming up with new tactics and new stop nades.
Also rivve who played for Begrip is a legend in the Call of Duty series as he has been one of the best since COD1. He will bring a lot of experience to the team and he will be the one to take the sniper. I'm confident that this team will perform very well.
We are looking forward to the next event when we can show everyone the new Fnatic Call of Duty 4 team.


Robin "rivve" Holmen :

At the beginning of cod4 I left eyeballers(Fnatic) because of my bad computer.
Since then my main goal was to get back up and prove to them that I had what it takes to be in the team.
Now I have accomplished that and I feel better than ever. I'm very happy to be joining up with Fnatic and the team once again.
We have all played with each other before and It feels great! I also want to thank begrip for the time we had. Great bunch of lads <3 Will miss you

Mikael "zsilts" Smedberg :

I'm really excited to be back in fnatic and back with tidde and odyx.
I've played with rivve in cod2 and he was awesome and what i've seen in cod4 he's going to do alot of crazy frags.
From what I've seen of LINQAN he is OK! =p
I'm looking forward to showing what we can do at the next lan.
As previously announced, fnatic DotA's long time 5th member, Jefri "stamx" Suwiryo announced his retirement three months ago. Since then the team has been trying out possible recruits. Only one of them shined out and his name is Jeffry "Neo" Lu.

Neo is well known in the Indonesian community having played with the DotA team in the past. His past team is Nightmare, one of the top teams in Indonesia. Experienced in the Asian scene, he is excited to join Fnatic and start playing internationally.

He already made his debut tonight in the Razer ADC Tournament playing against mKvL. With a powerful performance, he aided his new team to a clean victory. You can catch more action from him as the tournament advances.

Neo:

Hello to our newest recruit, please introduce yourself! What's your name, nickname, and how did you join fnatic?
Hi my name is Jeffry Lu, nickname is Neo! I joined fnatic because they needed a new member since stamx retired and I helped the team before in ADC season 1. They have no problems with me so they asked me to join.

What role do you play for the team?
I can play the late game hero or even the ganker. One game I can play Queen of Pain and the next Beastmaster.

What do you admire about the fnatic team?
They are the best team I could ever join. I feel so free on this team because I can play whatever I want. Everyone is equal.

What are your goals with fnatic?
I hope I can do my best and we play well in all our upcoming matches. Of course I want to join as many tournaments (online/offline) as I can under the fnatic name and make them proud. The most important thing is I'm very happy to play for them!
