Design Your Drip - Fnatic x AlwaysFnatic
Fnatic has the best fans in the world, and once again that was proven by the breath-taking designs submitted by all of you! Out of hundreds of submissions, we selected a few and put them to a community vote. Tyron Blanc and Hanjosi are the lucky winners, and we couldn't be more thrilled to make their vision a reality! Read their stories and inspiration to see which t-shirt fits you better, or maybe both?
“I entered the competition as I've always been a long time fan of FNATIC's League team, and recently the FNATIC Valorant team. I wanted to try my hand at making merch for an esports org as the process seems intriguing, as I previously interned at another esports org but never got the chance to try my hand at making apparel (which always seemed extremely fun to try) so I did shoot my shot at the FNATIC competition which was a great opportunity for all fans to try something new. I'm humbled by my community and friends who all helped vote for my design, it meant a ton to me and really boosted my confidence in art as I was having a rough creative period. I am honoured to have been one of the top 2, thank you so much for FNATIC for giving this opportunity to fans in the first place!”
“There were plenty of great designs out there; but I want to thank you for believing in me and helping me place in the top 2 in the #DesignYourDrip FNATIC competition. It means the world to me as an artist. I hope you like the design as much as I had fun illustrating it! Have a great day and thank you for your continued support!”
“The "Fnatinkowski" concept stems directly from two distinct passions: Physics and Fnatic. Through this concept, I wanted to play with the famous FNATIC acronym "ALWAYS FNATIC" with the recurrent use of "Then, now, always". Minkowski's concept of space-time highlights the propagation of time relative to space. On the vertical axis (ordinate) we observe time and on the horizontal axis (abscissa) space. By combining this concept with FNATIC we obtain : Past = Then, Present = Now, Future = Always. It is an allegory and a metaphor to show the presence of FNATIC, and its timeless aspect: "ALWAYS FNATIC". ”
“FNATIC, what can I say about this organisation...Besides being an incredible organisation with a monstrous history, it is quite simply the cutting edge of stylistic refinement in esports. To be able to pretend to add its stone to this monstrous edifice was for me a dream since FNATIC was able to rock my competitive spirit over the years. Winning this competition means a lot to me: I have always supported FNATIC as a fan and today it is the fans of FNATIC who supported me and brought me to victory. It's a very special feeling. I will always be grateful for that. #alwaysfnatic”
