Dyrus

Lore & Background

Dyrus began playing League of Legends in its beta phase. His favorite champion is Singed, with which he acquired rank 1 in the beta phase. His career started as a support for All or Nothing, then he joined Epik Gamer as their top laner. He gained exposure through streaming on Twitch. He later moved into the TSM gaming house while still playing for Epik Gamer. After TheRainMan resigned from TSM, Dyrus replaced him, resigning from Epik Gamer with his former team's blessing. Dyrus and teammate Xpecial were selected for the North American team at the May 2013 all-star tournament in Shanghai. Dyrus and TSM won the 2014 Spring split, 2014 Summer split, and the 2015 Spring NA LCS regular season and playoffs. TSM won the Intel Extreme Masters Season IX Katowice World Finals, defeating Team WE 3-0. Winning the 2015 Spring LCS granted them an invitation to the 2015 Mid-Season Invitational, where TSM finished 5th. In the 2015 Summer split, TSM finished 2nd, defeated by Counter Logic Gaming in the playoffs. At the 2015 World Championship, TSM placed fourth in Group D (the 'Group of Death') and was unable to progress. After TSM's last game against LGD, Dyrus retired and received a standing ovation. He returned to professional play in June 2017, joining Echo Fox Challenger team Delta Fox to compete in the North America Challenger Series, which disbanded after the league ended later that year.
