Lore & Background
Abbedagge joined Schalke 04 as a rookie mid laner for the 2019 Spring LEC, signing alongside veterans Vizicsacsi and Memento. The team finished seventh place with a 9–9 record, barely missing playoffs. In the 2019 Summer LEC, Schalke signed Trick to replace Memento, and the team finished fourth place in the regular season with an 11–7 record, qualifying for playoffs. After defeating Team Vitality in the first round, they lost to Fnatic 3–1, then fell to Rogue in the lower bracket. In the 2020 LEC season, Schalke performed erratically, coming in 8th place in the Spring Split. In the Summer Split, they started with a poor 1–9 record, on the verge of being mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. However, with Abbedagge in mid lane and adjustments to jungle and bot lane positions, the team mounted a dark horse "miracle run," winning their remaining 7 games to narrowly qualify for 6th place and the playoffs. In the playoffs, they defeated SK Gaming but were defeated by the MAD Lions. After the season, Abbedagge left for 100 Thieves.
