Fnatic tricking fans into buying a VPN by straight up lying in sponsored video + title

As title says, Fnatic made a sponsored video using HMA VPN claiming to be playing on the NA server with 16 ping located from Berlin with zero lag, while in fact playing on EUW.

Proof: account used in video

Edit: Fnatic privated the video, screenshots: 1 2 3

Sponsorships like these are garbage

I can’t wait to download some FNC DDR5 Ram.

It’s not even humanly possible to get 16 ping from EU to NA, who did they think they were fooling?

As an Fnatic fan, what a fucking disgrace.

Fnatic broke broke.

From crowdfunding their rosters to cash grab like this. lmfao.

lmao the VPN is called “hide my ass” and it’s owned by Avast :nauseated_face::nauseated_face:

Most people living in na can’t even get 16 ping in na

Need every cent you can get to keep Rekkles lmao

I mean you are even showing the names of the accounts, what did you expect would happen?

What is Fnatic turning into now???

My body is in pain because of the intense cringe, fuck.

So Fnatic is not only super broke they are also about to get a lawsuit because they are false advertising hard in EU ?

Pretty shitty thing to do with your players, they look like they don’t even want to be there.

Ah, how amazing does it feel to see your favourite org with years of legacy crumble like this…

Video instantly made private as soon as this hit the front page.

Mega shitty move Fnatic

16 ping from Berlin to NA would literally beat the speed of light.

To be exact, speed of light would give 46 ping between Berlin and Chicago. That’s assuming the shortest (surface) route and zero lag.

I think Raid Shadow Legends would look great on FNC jerseys

T1 under fire for the LS situation, Fnatic doing this, Carlos from G2 getting hated for the Perkz situation. The off season really has been crazy.

xD

guess the rumors that FNC is broke as hell is true if they go with low tier trashy/fake sponsored VPN videos

I haven’t seen the video, but that is a little bit (more then a little bit actually) sad. But I think it is not possible to play with that ping from EU because of the speeds at which the information is send and send back to play on the NA server. So if you bought the hype you were ill informed (or I am about my “facts”).
