My time in Origen review (2016)

2016 was a challenging Year for me.



First of all I left my comfort zone at UOL. My goals were to develop myself and to learn from the veterans at Origen. I was a hyped player and I was proud to be chosen by OG the world semifinalist for the double mid approach together with xPeke.



Directly after I have joined we won the IEM San Jose X in 2015 what a perfect start!



In the spring split we had a difficult start but in the end a good run and finished 2nd place. We played most of the time around bot. But I think Zven is a really good adc and all resources that were given to him were well placed.



The summer split was more difficult due to a lot of reasons but initially due to the unexpected team changes. It honours xPeke that he stepped in and tried to save the team but without a true main adc role you can hardly be successful on that level.



The team atmosphere suffered from the early clash of our botlane and the following bad results. Together with the pressure of high expectations towards OG this led to a lack of synergy in the team.



The EU LCS mode was Bo2. We got far too many draws and therefore lost too many points. At least we managed to secure our spot in the LCS.



Playing against a big part of the own team´s fanbase like “bring back xPeke” was also something new even more as it was regardless of the own/team performance or game result. Good luck for OG´s next mid alongside with xPeke whoever it will be.



In any case I gained a lot of experience for myself. From the successful spring split as well as from the less successful summer split. I could see how the veterans dealt with certain situations and received much support. @Soaz for example helped me to become part of the team and to improve my game knowledge/lane assignment or @xPeke helped me a lot to improve my in game communication.



I want to say thank you to all of the people that I have worked with for the time together in Origen.



Special thanks to @Alvar, he had great influence by bringing in a lot stability on the home stretch.



All the best for Origen!



Thanks to all the fans that supported me and stayed to me over the whole season even when stuff was going downhill.

I hope you guys keep supporting me under my new banner in Misfits!



Really excited for Spring Split on 19th January :)!
