Career
xPeke first came to prominence in 2011 as a member of myRevenge, winning the Intel Extreme Masters Season V League of Legends invitational. That myRevenge squad was picked up by Fnatic, with whom xPeke won the Season 1 League of Legends World Championship held at DreamHack.[5] In 2013, he was a part of the Fnatic squad that played in the first ever split of League of Legends Championship Series Europe, eventually winning both the Spring and Summer Split, with him being named the Summer Split playoffs MVP. At IEM Season VI Katowice xPeke backdoored SK Gaming in a play regarded as one of the most iconic in LoL history due to how he accomplished it under pressure, near death, and while the enemy team was about to destroy his own base.[6] In 2014, he won another Spring Split title with Fnatic, but lost in the Summer Split finals to Alliance. After the Season 4 World Championship, xPeke announced his departure from Fnatic with the intention to create a new team. On December 7, 2014, the formation of Origen was officially announced, with xPeke being in the mid laner and manager role.[7] In its first season as a professional team, Origen won the Europe Challenger Series title and finished second in the Summer Split of the European LCS. xPeke and Origen qualified for the Season 5 World Championship, having qualified through the regional gauntlet.[8] At Worlds they got to the semi-finals of the playoff bracket before losing to SK Telecom T1. Overall, xPeke had the highest Creep Score (CS) of any player in the tournament.[9]
