Fnatic entered the Counter-Strike competitive scene in 2013, when the team was founded by Thomas kiLi Kili. The initial roster, led by kiLi, managed to win Telenorligaen 2013 but struggled, and placed second. At the beginning of 2014, TacoBanden released the entire lineup except for in-game leader Thomas "kiLi" Kili, who was tasked to assemble a new roster. Kili recruited Mads "NumRim" Kleppe, the AWPer of Matchmaking; Kristian "LogiiC" Fjeld, from Team n00b; and Fjos duo Gøran "lamfolol" Pedersen and Henrik "hnp" Pedersen. This lineup would go on to win many major events in 2014, culminating with a 1st-place finish at Telenorligaen 2014. In 2015, TacoBanden's Counter-Strike team placed top three in many events with their newly acquired players, Joe "shortfegs" Pike and Wee "Zallan" Aboo.
