Playing in SEA and with Fnatic has been a great and important experience. It was my first time outside of Toronto, my first time living in a team house - all in the region of the most passionate Dota. Our end result is disappointing and not what we aimed to accomplished. But I hope what I brought to Fnatic, and SEA as a whole, in my time here will prove useful in the team's future. As we now part ways, I can only hope we meet once again on the battlefield. Thank you and good bye. - Jacky Mao
After playing for Fnatic in SEA for a year, it's time to say goodbye. This whole year has been very up and down. But, overall, has been a positive experience for me as a player and a person. Going back to playing for an established professional organisation and having that support was great, and living in a team house for a year was incredibly interesting as well as challenging at the same time. After our team finished reshuffling, I truly believed we could have become one of the best, if not the best, teams in the world. Unfortunately, that's not how things transpired. Even though we didn't reach what I believed to be our potential, I still believe in all my teammates and I know they will do well this upcoming year. I'd like to thank everyone who has supported me and Fnatic throughout this journey. - Johan Astrom Playing with Fnatic, I had my fair share of ups and downs; I believe the team had lots of potential to which we unfortunately didn't fulfil in the end. Despite all of that, I personally enjoyed my time with the team and feel like I learned a lot, not only about Dota but about life itself. I would like to thank my teammates and Fnatic for the opportunity they gave me this past season. - Saahil AroraIn the upcoming season, Fnatic has retained Abed "Abed" Yusop and Djardel "DJ" Mampusti with the latter signing a multi-year deal that'll see him stay at Fnatic for a longer duration. The team will be built around this Filipino duo, and it's widely speculated that former Mineski and TNC players will join forces to make a Super Team. On the other hand, Curtis "Aui_2000" Ling will also depart the organization as the head coach. Source: Fnatic
