The competitive landscape of Free Fire in Indonesia is about to change with ONIC's latest roster adjustments ahead of the FFWS SEA 2026 Fall. Historically, Indonesian teams have not included foreign players, but ONIC is breaking that trend by signing Poom, a talented player from Thailand.
New Horizons for ONIC
Poom, previously known as Onemore from Team Falcons, brings a wealth of experience and international titles to the team. His addition has generated significant buzz within the esports community, particularly as the FFWS SEA 2026 Fall approaches. ONIC not only has its sights set on reclaiming the Southeast Asian championship but also aims to lift the trophy in front of their home fans in Surabaya.
Improving Team Dynamics
Recent scrimmages have indicated that ONIC is emerging as one of the strongest and most consistent squads, a development credited to Coach Ahmad Fadly Masturoh, commonly known as AFM. Key players in this transformation include Poom and Geday, who has rejoined the main roster. Poom's immediate impact on the team's performance has been noteworthy.
Roster Changes and Challenges
However, ONIC's improvements are not solely about new arrivals. The team has also seen some players, Adam and XYRO, removed from the main roster. There are rumors of tensions between these players and Coach AFM, but no official statements have confirmed this situation. The exact status of Adam and XYRO remains uncertain, and further clarification from the management is advisable.
Poom's Ambitious Goals
Poom's transfer to ONIC marks a historical moment as he is the first foreign player to join an Indonesian Free Fire competitive roster. His ambition is clear: he is not just in Indonesia to play. He is determined to win titles. To improve communication with his teammates, Poom is reportedly taking Indonesian language lessons seriously, even seeking private tutoring to accelerate his learning process. This commitment is indicative of his dedication to enhancing team synergy and gameplay quality.
ONIC has a rich history in the FFWS SEA, having previously won the title in the Spring 2025 edition. With the revamped roster and Poom's integration, their goal is to recreate that success on home soil.
