Maks “Drututt” Przychodzień has finally attained Challenger rank in all five roles in League of Legends on the EUW server.
For all the memes about LoL and its players, few can deny the game is genuinely difficult. Even among esports titles, League of Legends boasts one of the most competitive scenes in the world. That difficulty lends itself to some amazing moments, which is why the competitive scene remains so popular a decade on.
Other games may give the highest rank names such as “One Above All” in Marvel Rivals or “Global Elite” in CS2. League of Legends directly acknowledges its competitive nature by calling the best solo players “Challengers,” as there remain hundreds of pro players among their competitive ranks. Those who achieve Challenger status are both skilled and dedicated.
Controversial streamer Drututt joins an elite group of players with his recent feat.
Drututt played 1,570 games total to reach Challenger in all five roles. He is the second player to achieve this feat in EUW, following Carl Felix “MagiFelix” Boström in 2020. The streamer posted his accolade on social media, alongside the number of games it took to reach Challenger in each role.
The last streamer to obtain Challenger in all five roles was Tyler “Tyler1” Steinkamp, who managed the feat on the NA server in 2022. Much like Tyler1, Drututt was controversial in the LoL community. Whereas Tyler1 was notorious for his LoL game bans, Druttut is infamous for Twitch streaming bans.
5 ROLE CHALLENGER
As of this writing, Drututt has been banned six times from the Twitch platform. The most recent Drututt ban occurred in January 2025 and lasted for a month. In the ban message, it was revealed Drututt had reportedly banned non-English speakers in his chat while using aggressive language towards them. His other bans were of a similar vein, as Twitch deemed he broke its terms of service with his controversial antics.
Nevertheless, Drututt continued the grind upon his return and finally accomplished his Challenger goal in ranked play.
Drututt was honest about his shortcomings in the support role while speaking on social media. He shared his experience and explained his process for the support role specifically. He confessed his inexperience playing support and said that he essentially had to learn the game from scratch. He also thanked fans for their kind words following his accomplishment. Despite his self-criticism, it’s important to note just how much faster Drututt achieved this feat when compared to Tyler1.
Tyler1 reached Challenger for the Jungler role after 1,800 games. Every other role boasted similar numbers until he reached support. Ironically, Tyler1 achieved Challenger in support in only 405 games, 200 less than Drututt, while playing support. Given the contrast in play style, both feats are impressive in their own way.
Tyler1’s style can be best described as “brute force.” While undeniably a skilled player, Tyler1 achieves most of his great feats thanks to stubborn grinding. Whether it’s reaching over 1900 Elo in chess or leading his first raid as OnlyFang’s guildmaster, Tyler1 simply doesn’t stop when there’s a goal to be reached.
By contrast, Drututt played more traditionally and even took breaks from the game instead of accepting any losing streaks. His feat is proof that there are always new ceilings to crash through at the highest rungs of solo queue.
