In our latest LoL Rostermania we covered many of the roster moves that have occurred or still happening post-Worlds 2020. This time however we have sad news for Fnatic fans as the organization has opted to announce Rekkles’ departure from the team. Here is their announcement:
Fnatic announce Rekkles’ departure – Why?
This will be the second time that Rekkles will be moving away from the Black and Orange, as back in 2014 he departed Fnatic to join Alliance. Unfortunately for him, he did not have as much success as he had previously with Fnatic, so he decided to join the team for another time.

Rekkles has been detrimental to Fnatic’s success in his 8 years with the organization, and will surely benefit any other team he will be joining in the seasons to come. Rekkles’ reason for his departure is unclear, but if one were to guess, it’s because he wanted to change his atmosphere in a new and different team.
Here are Fnatic’s best achievements with Rekkles
- 2nd at the 2018 World Championship – 3rd November 2018 – $870,750
- 3rd-4th at the 2015 World Championship – 31st October 2015 – $150,000
- 3rd-4th in the Season 3 World Championship – 29th September 2013 – $150,000
- 1st in EU LCS Spring 2018 – 8th April 2018 – $97,872
- 1st at EU LCS Summer 2018 – 9th September 2018 – $92,920
Which team will Rekkles be joining for the 2021 season?
