Saudi esports organization Team Falcons has announced its split with Fortnite player Alex 'Japko' Jabłoński. The news came as a surprise to many, as the Polish player had recently qualified for the Reload Elite Series 2026, which is set to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
According to the organization’s official statement, Japko left the team so the club could comply with the regulations of the Esports World Cup (EWC). The rules limit the number of representatives from a single organization — only one duo is allowed per club.
The 19-year-old Japko joined Team Falcons in 2024. Among his biggest achievements are:
- Victory at DreamHack Dallas 2024
- 3rd place at the FNCS Global Championship 2025
As a reminder, the list of participants for the main stage of Stake Ranked Cup: Episode 1 has recently been revealed.
