Fnatic - A profesional gaming team

In earlier CoD4, the now Fnatic team were dominant in online competitions, going unbeated in the first two months of the games release. In this section of the Videos on Demand you will find games stretching way back to the CrossfireQcup as well as the CoDQCup plus L2W league and EMS II, in both of which Fnatic finished second.

EMS II Grand Final - Fnatic vs Speed-Link

Fnatic 13

Speed-Link 10

Fnatic 06

Speed-Link 13

The ubiqtuous shoutcaster Deman again watches on as Fnatic play versus Speed-Link for the right to call themselves winner of the EMS Season two. Having come from the lower bracket Fnatic must win two matches whilst Speed-Link only need one. Fnatic win the first map in style and have all the momentum going into the deciding map but great play by Speed-Link makes sure there is more excitement at hand.

EMS II Consolation Final Fnatic vs LowLandLions

Fnatic 16

LLL 13

Shoutcasted by Deman, Fnatic face off versus LowLandLions, the team who originally knocked them into the Lower Bracket of the ESL EMS II. Fnatic start off slowly, at one point 6-3 down in the first half, however they pull back the game to 6-6 by side switching. In the second half, newest player Linqan pulls off a round win from a 1 versus 4 situation to tie the game back up at 9-9. The second half also finishes 6-6 taking the game into overtime.

EMS II LB Round 3 - Fnatic vs TEK9

Fnatic 13

Tek9 08

Fnatic returning from a spate of inactivity due to Odyx's router dieing, face off versus CoD2 legends Tek9 with new player Stevy. With a 10:02 score at half time, Deman predicts that Tek9 "have it all to do" as whilst defending TeK9 must try to win 11 rounds.


Live2Win Playoffs R1 - Fnatic vs Reason Gaming

Fnatic 08

Reason Gaming 13

Despite Deman forgetting to record the first four rounds, this game is a cracker featuring an amazing comeback by Reason Gaming. The first half finishes 8-4 in favour of Fnatic, as Linqan puts in a dominating performance, showing him to be a big danger in the upcoming summer lans.


EMS II LB Round 2 - Fnatic vs Dignitas

Fnatic 16

Dignitas 14

Fnatic starting on the defensive round, casted by Kee Ring and Deman, play against Dignitas for the first time since the CGS final where Fnatic won. The third round features and impressive ace from Linqan, from a 1-3 situation. Also a fantastic no scope shot by MintR is caught on Camera. A match showing amazing individual pieces of play, also finishing in overtime.

Live2Win Final - Fnatic vs Revolution

Fnatic 16

Revolution 12

Fnatic 11

Revolution 13

The Grand Finals of Live2win season one. Fnatic coming from the lower bracket take on Hungarian team Revolution. In what is zsilts' last game for the team, Fnatic must win both Crash and Backlot to be crowned victors whilst Revolution only need one map. Deman once again watches on as Fnatic suffer from internet problems but still persist to win the first map, Crash - albeit in overtime. The second map features an amazing piece of individual play with MintR getting and ace from a 1vs5 situation to take one round, in a very close, high speed matchup.

Live2Win Consolation Final - Fnatic vs Bangin it eurostyle

Fnatic 13

Bangin it Eurostyle 10

Once again Fnatic start off very slow, this time on crash. A meeting of the top two onform teams at the time, with new european lineup, Bangin' it Eurostyle, turning many heads with their online performances whilst Fnatic hadnt lost since being knocked into the Lower Bracket. The winner would then move on to face Revolution in the final of the L2W league. Fnatic start off on the attacking side, going down 10:5 at one point with MoN from Bangin' in Eurostyle putting in a very impressive performance, completely stopping opposite sniper, MintR, from influencing the game.

Live2Win League - Fnatic vs DEFEATERS

Fnatic 13

Defeaters 11

Yet again Deman shoutcasts as yet again Fnatic have a very slow start. Going 5:1 down versus Defeaters on Vacant spells the worst for fnatic as the Czechs slip away. Despite no shows of outstanding individual play, both teams show great teamwork as fnatic once again stage a comeback.



Live2Win League - Fnatic vs Roskilde Ravens

Fnatic 13

Roskilde Ravens 05

This time Fnatic play versus Scandinavian Rivals, Roskilde Ravens. Getting off to a rare good start, Fnatic, take the first three rounds with relative ease, finishing the half with an 8-4 score after defending on crossfire. Yet again Deman provides the commentary as fnatic progress to the next round with RR providing little threat.


Live2Win League - Fnatic vs ephix

Fnatic 16

Ephix 14

Jokingly before the game, Fnatic and Ephix spoke about a 12-12, little did they know that it would infact happen and provide one of the best CoD4 games in the QuadV Video on Demand. With MintR on a Gaming sabbatical, Tidde takes over sniper duties however it is Ephix who grab the headlines with great individual pieces of play. Vanner clutching the first round from a 3vs1 position and Will completing an ace are just some of the highlights from this action packed game.


Live2Win League - Fnatic vs TLR

Fnatic 13

TLR 11

A rematch from both i33 and the CDC4 finals as Fnatic vs TLR once again provides an extremely exciting match. Both teams have something to prove after being knocked into the Lower Bracket by Bangin' it Eurostyle and whilst Deman looks on it is a battle of the SMG's as both snipers, Tidde and SoClon rarely have encounters. Featuring some lovely pieces of individual skill and some great teamwork - a match not to miss.


Live2Win League - fnatic vs Four Kings

Fnatic 13

4kings 10

Highly rated new 4kings lineup face Fnatic whilst Deman watches and Kee Ring attempts to connect in vain. Playing on defensively bias backlot 4kings go out into an early lead as Fnatic have to play catch up. MintR pulls off an extremely impressive 3 man kill defending bomb site B whilst Fnatic are pushed all the way by the British team.


CoDQCup LB 4 - Fnatic vs Esuba

Fnatic 13

eSuba 16

A match from the very first CoDQCup in CoD4 with tactics still very much under developement and a larger variety of guns used in comparison to todays game - providing a refreshing break from the 'AK-fest' with weapons such as the MP5 and M16 in use. Deman and Joe co-cast on crossfire with an 8-4 score at half time but a very impressive defensive round by eSuba leads to an exciting climax


Crossfire QCup Semi Final - 4Kings vs. EYE

Fnatic 13

4Kings 09

Fnatic 13

4Kings 09

One from the vault, a game from before the current squad even joined Fnatic, with ex-players zsilts and wnkr both playing in the Semi Final of the teams succesful Crossfire QCup tournament. With the game little than a month old even the shoutcaster, Jay, can be forgiven for small mistakes made. If you want to see how CoD4 has developed in the short time since its release, this match is for you.

Coming into CDC4, this team had only just been picked up by Fnatic but they were already considered the best in europe. These four videos are all of the QuadV VoD's from CDC4, documenting the teams successful event, culminating in a tense final versus TLR (now MYM).


CDC4 - Grand Final - Fnatic v TLR

Fnatic 16

TLR 13

Voted the most exciting game of the whole CDC4 tournament and what a cracker it was. Although originally scheduled to be a Best of Three final TLR had to catch a plane and as such only had time for one map in which they would "rush rush rush". Tidde gets eight nade kills as well as a four man kill as Fnatic go into half time with a 10-2 lead, but there is a twist to the tale leaving Tosspot voiceless. The most exciting video in this whole collection.

CDC4 - Semi-Final - fnatic v esuba

Fnatic 07

eSuba 13

Fnatic 13

eSuba 08

Joining half way through the second map (Crossfire) of the Best of Three Semi-Final, Fnatic, already have a one map advantage meaning eSuba need to take the remaining two maps whilst Fnatic only need one. Tosspot once more provides the commentary from CDC4 in Enschede as the first 6 rounds of the deciding map are missed due to a "wee" issue with the final. Despite the constant interruptions the game is very tight up to about the half way stage when Fnatic start to become dominant.

CDC4 - Quater Finals - H2k v fnatic

Fnatic 13

H2K 06

The decider map of the first bracket match at CDC4(3rd map in a B.o.3) see's MintR and Qwerty fight it out in the battle of the snipers with both on superb form whilst Tidde has a comparatively quiet game. A rather one sided affair the now deceased Dutch team formerly of H2K have no answer for Fnatic's sturdy defence and relentless attacks. In Tosspot's words "to put it politely Fnatic destroyed H2K on Crossfire."


CDC4 - Group Stages - SK v fnatic

Fnatic 11

SK 07

Coming into CDC4 SK and Fnatic were considered two of the favourites - SK Gaming, formerly The6Devils, had shocked everyone by winning the CoDQCup whilst Fnatic won the Crossfire Qcup (then as Eyeballers) and had spent the first two months since CoD4's release undefeated. Both teams came into the event with high expectations, both were drawn in the same group but only one team could top the group. Although the stream is somewhat dark, the action will keep your eyes glued to the screen as SK attempt to make a comeback after Fnatic run riot in the first half with zsilts getting 12 frags.

i33, the biggest lan in the UK and it was host to a 12000euro Call of Duty 4 tournament, featuring top teams from all over the world, Fnatic are out to defend their title as the best in Europe.


i33 - CoD4 LB Final - Evil Geniuses v Fnatic

Fnatic 13

Evil Genuises 16

In the Lower Bracket final of i33, Fnatic win the knife round and choose to defend first on notoriously defensively biased map Backlot. Shoutcasted by Joe and Deman, Fnatic take the canadian team to Overtime on backlot, having already beaten Evil Genuises in the upper bracket.



i33 - CoD4 LB Semi Final - Fnatic v Exabyte

Fnatic 13

Exabyte 11

The shortest Fnatic Video on Demand featuring just the last 5 rounds of the Lower Bracket at i33 as Fnatic fight for their survival versus Exabyte (now Reason Gaming). Luni in particular pulls out some good kills for the British team, in a match taken right to the wire with no team taking a strong lead. Short but sweet and well worth the watch.



i33 - CoD4 UB Semi Final - Fnatic v TheLastResort

Fnatic 13

TheLastResort 16

Tosspot and Deman watch on as Fnatic face off versus The Last Resort (now MYM) in a rematch of the CDC4 Final. Featuring TLR's famous rush tactics (summed up expertly by Tosspot), who steam ahead to a 4-0 lead. Both snipers are on supreme form, with Soclon for TLR getting two kills in one bullet to help TLR. Just like its predeccessor at CDC4, Fnatic vs TLR delievers high octane, high thrills fragging action leaving both shoutcasters breathless.


i33 - CoD4 UB Round 3 - Fnatic v Evil Geniuses

Fnatic 13

Evil Genuises 03

The first of the two meetings between these exceptional teams, billed as the match between the best european team and the best american team a.k.a the 'transatlantic showdown'. Shoutcasted by Jay and Deman on the map Crossfire; Fnatic start off on attack and power ahead to 10-2 at half time, unfortunately not living up to the prematch hype. Never the less the quality of CoD4 on show is still phenomenal.

The first of the Big three summer lans for CoD4 took place at the Hilton Hotel, Antwerp. Ran by gamevibes the tournament promised some exciting matches with both Pandemic and Evil Genuises coming over from North America whilst all the best teams from Europe were in attendance. Fnatic.CoD4 also had a point to prove after what some would call a disapointing 4th place finish at i33.


Playoffs LB R3 - Fnatic v TEK9

Fnatic 07

Tek9 13

This time a cast from Kee_Ring and guest, Crow formerly of 4kings and check6 as well as writing for Gotfrag. The match see's home favourites Tek9 playing versus Swedish Fnatic on Strike in the Third lower Bracket round with the winners progressing one step closer to the Final whilst the loosers are sent home. Both teams push eachother to the end as mintR in particular is in sublime form for Fnatic.


Playoffs LB R1 - Fnatic v SK Gaming

Fnatic 13

SK Gaming 07

Perhaps the biggest rivalry in eSports renewed in Call of Duty for as Fnatic play SK-Gaming with Kee_Ring and Deman casting. The looser is knocked out of AEF, the winner progresses to the next Lower Bracket round in hope of recovering from their earlier mistakes. With the score 05-07 to SK at half time the pressure is on Fnatic as the Swedes fight for their survival.


Playoffs Round 1 - MYM vs Fnatic

Fnatic 06

MYM 13

Tosspot and Kee_Ring watch on as Fnatic play versus arch nemesis' MeetYourMakers, on what is considered the Swedes home map, Citystreets. A match up which never ceases to amaze begins with the teams almost taunting eachother with banter, and every round is met with an agonizing battle cry in the background. A superb match with a twist at the end of the tale.


Group L Stage 1 - Fnatic vs PGS

Fnatic 13

PGS 03

Fnatic's first streamed match of the CoD4 summer lan season occurs versus Polish team, PGS. Kee_RinG and Deman provide commentary for what is an all G7 encounter but in reality the Poles don't liveup to their organisations reputation. The map played, Citystreets is traditionally defensively biased by never the less Fnatic rush into an early 4-0 lead in an impressive showing for the Swedes.

The biggest prizepot in Call of Duty 4 history was avaliable in Gimle, Denmark at The-eXperience, and most of the teams who had attended The AEF just a week prior took to journey North in search of more Lan victories. Pandemic had all the momentum coming into the event and Fnatic still had a point to prove after what some called a poor showing at AEF.

The Videos from The-eXperience were lost mid-transit between Denmark and England, or they were just never uploaded, either way there are still the i34 vods to watch!

This time the i-Series was held at a brand new location, Stoneleigh Park, Coventry, England. But despite the new venue there was still as 12000euro prize purse at stake with Fnatic aiming to build on their 4th place at TeX.


i34 Upper Bracked Rd4 LowLandLions v Fnatic

Fnatic 08

LowLandLions 13

A flustered Deman casts yet another game this time starting one round into the second half, Fnatic play versus LowLandLions, the benelux team who surprised at TeX. Almost immediately we see Tidde of Fnatic get a bomb defuse from a 3on1 situation with a sublime piece of play - shortly alleviating the pressure on the Swedes. In what turns out to be MintR and zEm's swansong for Fnatic the game does not do two truely talented players justice and its sad to see them go out on a low.



i34 Upper Bracket Rd2 - Fnatic v 4Kings

Fnatic 16

4kings 14

Starting eight rounds in, Fnatic are on the attacking side of Crash against the team who earlier beat them in the groupstages, 4kings. Fnatic look very shakey whilst the dark horses in 4kings take full advantage. None
of the Swedes look up for the game and commentators, Joe and Deman are justly critical of Fnatics defense when 4kings are left within two rounds of victor.


i34 Group Stages - 4kings v Fnatic

Fnatic 09

4kings 13

Despite 4kings being on the traditionally easier defensive side on Backlot, it is Fnatic who take the first to rounds of the half, but despite earlier dominance, both teams push each other hard leading to a fairly even half time score. Joe and Deman cast an exciting match with a slightly disapointing performance from the favourites. Please note there is a slight bug with this VoD where after seven the video goes back to the first round. After this occurs you can watch the whole match without interferance.
