As Pink (or, indeed, P!nk) once sang, “This used to be a funhouse, but now it’s full of evil clowns”.
It’s, uh, not a great lyric.
It does, however, accurately describe fnatic. It’s a bit of a madhouse, and now there’s a whole bunch of nonsense occurring. After smooya’s untimely departure - which clearly ALEX feels no remorse for - regali was drafted in.
Unless he wasn’t.
poizon has been standing in for the stand-in, presumably due to COVID, but nobody seems to know. But that’s fine. regali was a stand-in anyway, so changing him for another one makes no difference, right?
If only it were that simple — due to NiP bidding for Brollan, he’s currently inactive for fnatic despite being named among the subs, so Peppzor is in. For those keeping count, that’s two stand-ins, but one of them is replacing another stand-in. We know, it’s confusing.
At the very least, it’s still recognizable as fnatic, given their franchise player KRIMZ is playing! I sure hope he doesn’t ge- ah, for crying out loud. Banjo is currently stepping in for the COVID-having Swede at Pro League.

Doesn’t seem like they have any idea what’s going on.
To recap, their roster looks like this. Right now:
