I havent kept up with esports since world but after destroying most competition why would FNATIC break up?
Update: so i found and read the statements. And NA just straight up outbid FNATIC. I did not see that coming.
Players wanted to move on and could get better opportunities elsewhere
i didnt know there was that much difference in pay. But for yellowstar to leave is huge. And i know huni and reignover were from korea but fnatic was heads and shoulder above any other western team. Hard to believe thew money they getting paid in NA is worth losing that dominance
everytime eu does well na appears and stea... i mean buys all the players. they bought huni and reignover and maybe even yellowstar. nothing new for someone from eu so yea.
Anyone have an idea about how much players get paid in NA?
Fnatic break up because an org backed by new rich investors coming up from outside e-sports escene offered the highest amount of money ever offered to a player by a Western team for Huni and a fat contract as well to reignOver, and Fnatic decided to not match those really big offers The reason why yellowStar decided to live is unknown yet, because it wasn't an economic problem for him as Fnatic had matched NA offers
