    Fnatic have confirmed major changes to their roster ahead of the LEC Summer Split 2025, parting ways with mid laner Humanoid after nearly four years with the organisation.

    Humanoid, who joined from MAD Lions in late 2021 following consecutive LEC titles, helped Fnatic secure two Worlds qualifications and reached multiple domestic finals, although a trophy eluded him during his tenure.

    Jungler Razork, who opened up about the decision, emphasised that the move was not strictly based on Humanoid's individual performance.

    Razork also rejected claims that Humanoid was a scapegoat for past losses, pointing out that defeats are a collective responsibility and praising Humanoid as one of Europe's best mid laners, arguably in the top two.

    "For Humanoid, I obviously love him a lot, but I felt like something had to change because we were not really succeeding together," Razork said in an interview with Sheep Esports.  

    "We were not burned out with each other, but it just felt like we couldn't really improve more together. We were kind of stuck.

    "Something new was needed, in my opinion, and Fnatic made the decision to change mid."

    Humanoid's departure makes way for Poby, a promising T1 prodigy, who will make his LEC debut with Fnatic this split. The team's management made the final call on the roster, signalling a new direction for the organisation.

    Fnatic will kick off their lower bracket campaign against GIANTX on 15 September 2025, with aspirations of a deep run to secure the third seed for Worlds 2025.
