Joined Fnatic: January 5th, 2006 Lindberg is regarded internationally as one of, if the the best Counter-Strike player in the world because of his unique and overly aggressive playing style. He was one of the key players in the 2008/9 season, often leading the team to victory in major events across the world, with "clutch rounds". Originally recruited on the 5th of January 2006 had a long successful career before leaving the team in late 2010. A player vote "player of the year" two years running, something no other player can claim to date. Notable achievements |
Joined Fnatic: July 27th, 2004 Sander 'Vo0' Kaasjager, arguably the best Painkiller player and CPMA great, retired from competitive play on his 21st birthday. Kaasjager will be remembered for his dominant performance on the CPL World Tour, where he won five of the nine tour stops and collected an impressive $232,000. Aside from a grand final loss to Jonathan 'Fatal1ty' Wendell, Vo0 was the unquestioned best player on the tour. Kaasjager even captured the tournament MVP and a $20,000 bonus from Intel.

Joined Fnatic: 14th May, 2005 While Ztrider was good at several games, there are no doubt about that PainKiller was the perfect game for him. Much like his fellow Fnatic Hall of Famer, Sander 'Vo0' Kaasjager, Ztrider had the perfect playstyle for the fastpaced game. Ztrider didn't ride the waves of the victory into the World Championships however, as he finished on 6th place following defeats against Stermy and zyz. However with his overall career winnings totalling over $78,000, no one can ever say that Ztrider wasn't one of the best duellers of the PK era. Notable achievements |
Joined Fnatic: 23rd July, 2004 There are few people in the world that has had a bigger impact on the Fnatic brand than Laurens 'Lauke' Pluijmaekers. Widely regarded as one of the two best players to ever play in the Unreal Tournament-series (with Christian 'GitzZz' Höck being the other), Lauke made a name for himself in the beginning of the new Millenium. After dominating the Dutch Unreal Tournament scene, he made it to the first World Cyber Games event in Daejon, South Korea, in 2001. Notable achievements |
