Fnatic are out of Worlds 2026. GIANTX beat them 2-1 on 30 August in the last LEC Summer regular-season series, so they miss Summer Playoffs and the last three European Worlds spots.

The LEC account called it the first time Fnatic have ever missed Summer Playoffs. The postseason streak went back to 2013. Worlds appearances had been uninterrupted since 2017; they last sat one out in 2016. They won the first Worlds in 2011 and made the 2018 final.

Summer opened 0-3, then three wins (SK, Shifters, G2), then three losses ending with GIANTX. Eighth in Versus, seventh in Spring. Roster churn all year: Oscarinin, Humanoid and Mikyx out; Vladi, Empyros and Lospa in; Soboro replaced Empyros for Summer. Razork is in year five.

Fnatic on X: "A heartbreaking end to our 2026 season." Their VALORANT side already missed every international this year.
