Fnatic Strengthens VALORANT Roster With Assistant Coach And Substitute

British esports organization Fnatic has announced that it has strengthened its VALORANT roster by signing an assistant head coach and a substitute player. It is reported that these changes will help the team to better prepare for the start of the new competitive season.

As the 2023 season gets closer and closer, we would like to bring you a number of updates for the team as we head to the kickoff tournament in Brazil next month. Last year we announced two exciting new additions to the starting roster, joined by Chronicle and Leo from M3C and Guild Esports respectively. Both players are big names on the scene and have proven over the past few years that they are the best Europe has to offer. We are very confident in this line-up and can't wait to see what it can do, however we are not done yet.

We are starting this year with a promotion to our coaching staff, aiming to continually take the team to the highest level of competition while evolving in an ever-changing championship competitive environment. We look forward to the start of the 2023 season and hope you are as excited as we are about these new changes and challenges.

From now on, slk will help the coaching staff. The 28-year-old Russian specialist worked for KPI Gaming for a long time, winning Moscow Cybersport Series #4 - Weekend 5, GameGune 24 and Circuito Tormenta: Liga Radiante 2022 S2. It is noteworthy that slk is already familiar with the Fnatic team, as he helped the roster as part of last year's VALORANT Champions 2022.

Kamyk was introduced as a reserve player. During his career, the 19-year-old Pole managed to play for such teams as Movistar Riders, Anonymo Esports, Rebels Gaming and UCAM Esports Club, winning VALORANT Regional Leagues 2022 East: Surge Stage 1.

Earlier, the British organization Fnatic was among the partners of Riot Games and received the right to play in the European League. Here the club will compete with teams such as Team Vitality, Karmine Corp, FUT Esports, BBL Esports, Natus Vincere, Team Liquid, KOI, Team Heretics and Giants Gaming.

The next championship for the European team will be VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, which will be held from February to March in Brazil.
