fnatic won the First Person Lover Challenge following a 2-0 victory over EnVyUs in the grand final (16-7 on de_inferno and 16-14 on de_cache).

Hosted by fragbite together with underwear fashion brand Björn Borg, the FPL Challenge featured four European teams, who battled it out for the top prize of 40,000 SEK (approximately $4,900).

Powered by the IOS Pantamera title, fnatic were the first team to secure a place in the FPL Challenge grand final after fending off the threat of EnVyUs in the Upper Bracket final by a 2-0 scoreline.

The former LDLC team then picked themselves up and beat an LGB side fielding two stand-ins, Kenneth "⁠REASTEN⁠" Kristiansen and Preben "⁠prb⁠" Gammelsæter, on just two maps to get a shot at revenge for their previous defeat.

With the side and veto advantages after coming from the Upper Bracket, fnatic got off to a flying start in the series and moved past EnVyUs 16-7 on de_inferno after picking up a 10-5 lead on the CT side. de_cache was a much closer affair, as the Frenchmen had a 9-6 lead at the end of first half, but Markus "⁠pronax⁠" Wallsten's men were able to clinch the victory in the very last round to scoop the top prize of the tournament.
