Fnatic have officially signed French top laner Adam ‘Adam’ Maanane for their LEC Summer 2021 lineup, as speculation on Gabriël ‘Bwipo’ Rau position on the team mounts.
- Adam, previously ‘Ricadam,’ signs to Fnatic.
- Adam was a star in Karmine Corp’s EM 2021 Spring championship run.
- Bwipo switches to Fnatic’s jungle position.
Fnatic signs Adam in the top lane
Fnatic are revamping their top lane with 19-year-old Adam. The young Frenchman is coming off a dominant season with Karmine Corp in the European minor circuits.
Previously it was reported Fnatic agreed to buyout the rising talent for roughly $291,800 to be the new starter on the legendary EU org.
Adam must have impressed the orange-and-black coming off his performances to capture 1st in the LFL 2021 Spring split, a championship in the LFL Spring playoffs, and a broader win after coming in 1st at the European Masters Spring Main Event.
