It is the end of the road for Fnatic as they make their exit from the European Regional Major Rankings (RMR), owing to the defeat they sustained from their Turkish counterpart, Eternal Fire. <\/p>\n

Their loss to the Eternal Fire and eventual exit from the event has cost them the opportunity of making the PGL Major. They have missed out of the CS:GO Major<\/a> in three consecutive seasons. <\/p>\n

In 2021, Fnatic missed the CS:GO PGL Stockholm Major owing to an abysmal display at the IEM Fall Europe tournament. The United Kingdom based franchise finished last place at the IEM Fall Europe due to losses suffered at the hands of FaZe Clan on Mirage, Double Poney (Nuke), Team Fiend (Inferno), Ninjas in Pyjamas (Nuke) and a Mirage loss to SKADE. <\/p>\n

Reacting to their exit, Fnatic<\/a> took to their Twitter page to express their regret and apologize to their fans. While they acknowledged the pain attached to not qualifying for the Major, they promised to ‘get back to the top.’<\/p>\n

“CS:GO is one of the core pillars of Fnatic.
\nNot qualifying for #PGLMajor stings for all of us. It stings as players, as fans and as an organisation.
\nFor those still cheering on the sidelines… we hear you.
\nWe’re all gonna get back to the top. The work starts here.”<\/p>\n

They also wished the teams that qualified all the best, especially GG and Eternal Fire. They took the opportunity to interface on a much deeper level with their fans via an AMA session scheduled to hold in the future.<\/p>\n

“GG to Eternal Fire and best of luck to all the teams at this year’s PGL Major in Antwerp.
\nAnd to the fans…make sure you’re in our official Fnatic discord. We’ll be dropping details on an upcoming CS:GO<\/a> AMA session soon.” <\/p>\n
