FORG1VEN made his return to the big stage after joining FC Schalke 04 in November 2019, but didn’t get to play for long before rookie bot laner Nihat “Innaxe” Aliev replaced him.Â
FORG1VEN returned to League of Legends after being absent for years due to his mandatory military service. His official break from League of Legends started after Worlds in 2016, where he reached the semifinals together with H2K before losing to Samsung Galaxy. FORG1VEN made a quick splash upon his return when he won the 2018 EU Masters Spring competition with Origen before finally joining a LEC team for the 2020 season.Â
His return to European League of Legends created a lot of hype among fans, but that didn’t last very long. FORG1VEN only got to play a total of six LEC games this year, all of them resulting in defeats. The Schalke roster didn’t play as a cohesive team, which resulted in disagreements behind the scenes.Â
The poor start to the 2020 season resulted in some changes on the Schalke roster, more specifically in the bottom lane where FORG1VEN was benched. While still on the team, the Greek bot laner didn’t re-enter Summoner’s Rift for the rest of the season, so exploring new options only makes sense.Â

Despite FORG1VEN’s impressive resume and the fact that he has been considered one of the most talented bot laners in European LoL history, it may not be easy to find a team in the LEC. Many talented rookies are waiting to get a shot on the big stage, while most teams in the LEC already have a strong bot laner on the squad.Â
FORG1VEN didn’t manage to make the comeback that fans had hoped for this year, and therefore didn’t prove that he can still compete at the top level. It is possible that he could end up in one of the European leagues and work his way up, or he may get a chance on an LCS team.Â
FORG1VEN is off his current contract on November 18.Â
