Fnatic finds a new mid laner with former T1 Academy star Poby
After standing out at T1 Esports Academy, Yoon ‘Poby’ Sung-won is making a major move ahead of the LEC Summer Split 2025. He is joining the European side Fnatic as their latest import. He replaced Marek ‘Humanoid’ Bráda, who is now on the team’s inactive roster.
Fnatic enters the Summer Split with low expectations after they struggled during the Spring Split. During that time, they placed fourth and could not reach the Mid-Season Invitational. With Poby joining, this could be the boost they need to return to being Europe’s best.
Fnatic feels Poby perfectly matches their goals
Poby is not lacking in confidence, which is a good sign for a mid laner. The position needs players to be bold and confident, so Fnatic will have a risk-taker from the mid-lane. Fnatic’s head coach Fabian ‘GrabbZ’ Lohmann is pleased to see Poby fitting in well with the rest of the team.
GrabbZ said, ‘The first thing that stood out of Poby was his enthusiasm. Someone who can really brighten the mood of the team, and I think he’s someone who can also lead his team.’
