Through their official website, Fnatic posted their lengthy answer to Valve's earlier statement regarding the issues with Adrian 'Era' Kryeziu and his potential replacement in TI4. The organization announced that they are unhappy with Valve's decision to release the emails exchanged between the two sides, and with their irrevocable resolution regarding Era's situation.
In his last post, Fnatic CGO Patrik 'cArn' Sättermon insists that their request to change the roster is solely caused by Era's health condition and has nothing to do with performance issues or the sort. He stated that Valve continuously refused to communicate with the organization through Skype, making it harder for the players to be heard by the company and explain their situation and point of view. He also published some emails that were not included in Valve's original blog post, which was later updated with the missing emails. Sättermon stated that without these emails, Fnatic's approach towards the situation seems shady and, as he claims, quite different from reality.
Along with cArn's words, Fnatic's post also includes the final letter from Era, who mentions that his email on June 13th was rushed and thoughtless as it was written before he completes his medical sessions and the required treatment. According to the letter, Era announced that he has no problem getting replaced by Steve 'Xcalibur' Yee in The International 4, but he insists that he will attempt to play as well if Valve's decision forces Fnatic to bring him with them.
