He is best known for his 7 years from 2014 to 2020 as the starting mid laner for the Team SoloMid League of Legends Championship Series (LCS) team. He followed that with shorter stints as a head coach for TSM, and again as a mid laner for Team Liquid and 100 Thieves. He is one of the winningest North American players of all time with 6 domestic titles and 10 finals appearances, and has never finished below 5th place. Internationally, he won IEM Katowice 2015 and qualified to the League of Legends World Championship 5 times, but only advanced past the group stage once. Widely regarded as one of the greatest North American League of Legends Championship Series players for his individual prowess as a mid laner, where he was a perennial MVP and 1st Team All Pro candidate, he won 4 MVP titles, 3 playoff MVP titles, and 6 1st Team All Pro titles. He has never finished below 4th in All Pro voting, and is the current all-time LCS kills leader. He retired from competitive eSports in April of 2023.
