Fnatic announced in mid-September 2026 that it is actively recruiting a new League of Legends General Manager based in Berlin to lead the 2027 rebuild after the organization's worst season on record. Dardo, who served as Team Director until stepping down in December 2024 while remaining with the organization in another capacity, brings extensive prior experience in roster building and operations but has not held the top management post since then. Interim duties have fallen to Chief Gaming Officer cArn amid a broader post-season review focused on roster, coaching, and structural overhauls. The open search process, emphasis on fresh leadership, and timeline for a 2027 appointment represent the key variables that will shape whether Dardo returns to the role.
