“I’m back, baby!” shared Crashies in Fnatic’s official announcement video. Crashies is the second player to re-sign for the organisation ahead of the 2026 season.
In October, Fnatic re-signed Jake ‘Boaster’ Howlett to its lineup, cementing two of the five players that will compete under the Fnatic banner until the end of 2026.
Fnatic has yet to reveal the three remaining players representing the organisation next year. On November 9th, the organisation is hosting INZONE The London Clash, an OFF//SEASON event where it will unveil the full lineup.
In addition to revealing the roster, the event marks the first time Fnatic’s VALORANT roster will take part in a match in the UK.
Throughout 2025, Fnatic cemented its place as one of EMEA’s top teams after finishing second at Masters Toronto and the Esports World Cup. The team rounded off the year finishing runner-up to NRG at Champions.
Further Fnatic Changes
The re-signing of Crashies follows the departure of Timofey ‘Chronicle‘ Khromov, who left the team to join Team Vitality after his contract expired.
Outside of its starting roster, the organisation parted ways with Leo ‘Leo’ Jannesson, who called time on his career due to health issues.
Emir ‘Alfajer’ Beder and Kajetan ‘kaajak’ Haremski are still contracted to Fnatic for the next year, but the organisation has yet to reveal details on whether the pair will join Crashies and Boaster on the starting lineup.
With Crashies committing to Fnatic for 2026, fans won’t have to wait long before the organisation unveils the full lineup at The London Clash.
