Brollan to fnatic is official. The Red Reserve player was picked up by fnatic today and has already made his debut in fnatic vs FaZe. Meanwhile, ScreaM goes back to free agency.
We go 1-1 in #ESLProLeague against @FaZeClan.
New boy @Brollancs showed what he's made of, picking up 29 kills across the two maps.https://t.co/zLiH02HgeW

While Belgian headshot-machine ScreaM formerly acted as a stand-in for the Swedish roster, he now looks for a new team. However, this could open up some very interesting opportunities in the pro scene.
As they decide to keep it full swedish. My stand-in with @FNATIC ends up today. #FreeAgent

Brollan to fnatic
Instead of opting for a Swedish veteran, fnatic pick up up-and-coming Swedish youngster Brollan.
Brollan is one of the youngest players playing at the top level at just 16 years old. But much like players like ENCE Sergej and Team Vitality ZyWoo, he’s already impressed at a young age.
He previously played with fnatic at WESG 2017 and has since played with teams like Epsilon, GODSENT, and Red Reserve.
Excellent start for our new boy @Brollancs! We take down @FaZeClan 16-5.
We now move onto Inferno.https://t.co/xLDXxfPYEt pic.twitter.com/Fr0YCSshWq

With a 1.13 HLTV rating, Brollan can breathe some new life into fnatic. He’s already had his debut, taking a map from FaZe in the ESL Pro League. We’ll see what happens for fnatic next.
ScreaM to Cloud9?
With fnatic recruiting a new fifth, ScreaM now goes back into free agency. However, there’s no bad blood with the team.
It was a nice experience for myself and I wish them to succeed! ✌🏽

With ScreaM’s strong stats, the decision seemed to be more based around fnatic wanting to remain a Swedish roster.
In contrast, ScreaM is open to international opportunities. In fact, he even stated in an interview from VPEEsports.com that he’d be open to joining Cloud9. With Skadoodle leaving Cloud9, this could be the perfect opportunity.
Of course, there are others. With rumors of sunNy to FaZe, mousesports may soon need another new player.
ScreaM has had a long career of ups and downs with many unfair removals. However, his performances remain strong and his newfound free agency gives him the chance to find a new, stable opportunity.
