Leo is taking a break from the professional scene, hiro will replace him at Fnatic

Fnatic has announced changes to its Valorant roster, signing Emirhan "hiro" Kat as the sixth player, while Leo "Leo" Jannesson has been given a break.

Unexpectedly, Fnatic announced forced changes to its Valorant lineup ahead of the start of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2024: EMEA Stage 2. This tournament will determine three teams from the European region that will go to the Valorant Champions 2024.

Fnatic informed on their social media that a decision was made in collaboration with the player and staff to give Leo "Leo" Jannesson a rest due to his health issues. He has been replaced by Emirhan "hiro" Kat, the sixth player from the Turkish club Papara SuperMassive.

After internal discussions around his health, we’ve made the decision to give Leo some time away from the start of #VCTEMEA Split 2, acquiring @hiroaims as 6th man from @supmassgg*
