Fnatic tried playing without KRIMZ —and immediately failed an important major qualification. But as soon as he returned to the lineup, the team won their first match right away.

Before BLAST.tv Austin Major 2025: ERQ, Fnatic decided to change their roster by signing b0RUP to replace KRIMZ for the duration of the tournament. This was a temporary replacement for one tournament, after which KRIMZ 's future would be determined. However, as is already known, Fnatic failed the qualification.

Now KRIMZ is back in the main lineup—and it immediately paid off. In the first match after his return, at the Conquest of Prague 2025: Online Stage tournament, Fnatic confidently defeated CYBERSHOKE, winning 13-7. KRIMZ himself didn't have the best game, but it was enough to secure the victory.

When comparing player statistics over the past month, KRIMZ looks better. b0RUP had 4 matches to prove himself, but he performed poorly in each one. This led to the return of KRIMZ .

This story once again proves: KRIMZ is not just a player but a true legend of Fnatic . He was part of the team from June 2014 to August 2016, and then from October 2016 to the present, totaling 8 years and 6 months.
