At the recent official preseason tournament SEN City Classic, NRG player mada, playing the duelist role, led his team to victory, impressing with a K/D ratio of 1.22. His strong performance caught the attention of FNATIC manager CoJo, who confirmed on the platform X (formerly Twitter) that he considered mada a candidate for the second duelist position after kaajak.
I'm excited to see mada's success at the SEN City Classic tournament. We invited him for trials at FNATIC, and he has become my second favorite player after kaajak. Mada showed great attitude, and despite the ping issues, he played remarkably.noted CoJo

His team finished in third place at the VCL 2024 NA tournament, just missing out on advancing to the Ascension tournament.
Glad to see Mada did well in SEN City Classic. We trialled him and he was probably my personal 2nd favorite player behind Kaajak. Really good attitude and played well in our trials despite the ping. Bright future ahead for him.
