Maurice “Amazing” Stückenschneider will be stepping down from the starting League of Legends Fnatic roster for EU LCS Weeks 4 and 5, the organization announced today. In his place, Mads “Broxah” Brock-Pedersen will be playing jungle for the team.

Fnatic has been touting their committal to a 10-man roster for the 2017 season, but this is the first time that they’ve used one of their five substitutes to replace an LCS starter.

Broxah will be stepping up from the Fnatic Academy Challenger team, where he had a breakout Summer Split in 2016. Daniel “Dan” Hockley will replace Broxah on Fnatic Academy. The change comes as Fnatic has been struggling to find real momentum in EU, with a 2-2 match record, but only winning five of eleven games played overall.

Broxah and Fnatic’s first test with the new starting jungler will come against Team Vitality on Friday, February 10. Stay on Yahoo Esports for more League of Legends news.
