Fnatic have announced that they will be benching Flusha from their main roster. Here below is their announcement:
Fnatic benching Flusha – Why?
It’s quite clear that Fnatic haven’t had the best results in recent events. Despite Flusha not being the weakest in the squad, they’ve benched him as they have a new project set for the team in 2021.
Flusha’s history with Fnatic
Robin “Flusha” Rönnquist first joined Fnatic back in 2013. Where he and his squad created one of the most legendary teams to date. Winning the DreamHack Winter 2013, ESL One: Katowice 2015, and ESL One: Cologne 2015 majors. Then in 2016, he left the black and orange to play for Godsent, where he did not manage to replicate his success. He returned back to Fnatic in 2017, and left them once more in late 2018 to represent Cloud9. After not being able to win with a roster shuffled Cloud9, he decided to return to Fnatic in 2019.
This is what Fnatic coach, Andreas Samuelsson had to say about the roster move:
“Looking to the future of Fnatic CS:GO we’ve had to make some tough decisions about our roster and our legendary players. Robin is an amazingly talented player and I’m sure he will find a place in a top tier team very quickly. Flusha dropping to our inactive roster opens up a place on our active roster that we will use to rejuvenate our team for the 2021 season.”

Who will replace Flusha?
Rumors that have recently surfaced indicate that up and coming Jack “Jackinho” Ström Mattson will be replacing Señor VAC. He has only ever played in semi-professional CS and is looking to make his professional debut with Fnatic.
