FEATURED STORIES

Blacklist Ultimate has just come off a Garena Masters championship loss against rivals Smart Omega and FDx’s acquisition will surely help them to get back to winning ways in future tournaments.

FDx, who was an integral part of the Garena Youth Challengers and Garena Masters roster for Tyrant Esports, expects great things from the organization.

“Given that Blacklist Ultimate is a well-known, proficient organization that would help me not only as a player but also as a person, I expect that I can learn more from them and they can mold me into my full potential,” he said.

With this development, FDx becomes the second Tyrant player to be picked up by a different organization. Smart Omega also notably picked up Tyrant Esports player Ronan “Rage” Eleria earlier in April.

FDx will now join the core group of Blacklist as they retool and regroup following the team’s loss to Smart Omega, ending their streak of titles at 5.
